LIBERTY AGAINST ALL CoMERs-We have received the
following letter from the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court
of Iowa. 1t is somewhat of consolation to u.s. who are
plagued with the barking of slaves and bgo to know that
the leading of the mghties and free, nation earth
recognize true workers in the of Liberty We
take pride in the fact that since the establishment of The
IRISH REPUBLIC have done to bring the cause OF
Ireland before the who control the destinies of this
country than all the Irish journals that have been established
in America since England took her shadow from these shores
We trust have also done something towards showing
counymen that Liberty has only road and that all

ITO the Editors of The Irish Republic.

pleasure several copies of paper also testimonials
from the press in all parts of the country.
"You fight in good and strike with bold hand.
The world everywhere needs independent fearless
thought and utrasm radicasm any like terms should

With much respect yours most truly,
letter from James Lackey Washington D. c., which would
occupy about columns of paper. 1t is all to the
effect that he condemns for in relation to
and things After going to the bother of getting somebody
to write this condemnation wherein Mr. Lackey uses the
personal pronoun about hundred times, he winds up by
saying he knows won't publish his letter. Now Mr..
Lackeys letter was in the printers hands-for like to get
abused in awhile especially by men whose malice
cannot be covered by their reasonfor publication when
received General Nes denunciaton This being higher
game turned from the acey the MASTER Weeks before
Mr. Lackey had sent us his letter were advised of the
castgaon in store for We told that Mr.. Lackey
would send letter. but that would not be written by that
gentleman for the good and sufficient that he could
write it," Now when take into consideration that General
ONe makes Mr.. Lackey's house his home when in Wash
ington, it easy account for Mr. Lackeys Indignation
We happen to have in Office letters which, comparing
with Mr. Lackeys look very much like the two Murphy
who resembled each other much that they themselves
couldn't tell who from cch Now that the principal actors
coming out prefer to fight them directly than to be
fighting them through Mr. Lackey and other ackeys whose
business seems to be the championng of avoe hero
We have drawn out the entire force yet There
in waiting until whip the attacking forces Now
do not like to be fighting these singy wasting all
strength few skrmishes. Bring out the whole force
for if you do not gentlemen, we'll drag them out. You
shall not cut Threats and plot destruction in
concaves any longer This should be against the principles
of Christian and dntsecre society gentlemen like you. Let
this whole matter be thoroughly aired and calmly discussed
that it has been entered into. Let the Organization
stand to their Circles and jurors and don't make
mncemeat of these gentlemen why call fools for daring
to speak minds We know the advantage enemy has
He the peoples money the organizers the senator's the
johnson administration and those who always worship
ing chiefs and kings instead of principle Nevertheless
fling banner the breeze which is written Liberty
and TRUTH" and will the whole Let good
be disguised by the smanes of the in whose hands
Organization is unfortunately placed Stand to your
Circles Instead of being driven out by bad remember
the and dpe the bad out. If you independent
enoug differ with your leaders, they would like you
retire As you value the liberty of your country don't desert
the Organization.
