the party. The Irish belong to the Demo-
cratic party, recognizing it as the Peoples
party. 1t is the party to which every Ger
man should belong. He said that he was
only astonished at the number of Irish Re.
publicans in this city alone, and read list
of the most prominent lrshmen now holdiug
office, or running for Office in the Republican
ranks.
The gentleman continued, and said every
citizen had perfect right to work for the in
terest of either of the great parties; but
principles not passions, should govern men,
and he trusted that no animosities would
exist between Irishmen and Germans on ac-
count Of political opinions. The Republican
party had violated and trampled upon the
Constitution The most sacred rights guar
anteed by that instrument we're laughed at.
But the Democracy will yet regain power.
Then will the Constitution of our country be
held sacred as in the days of our fathers.
The next President of the United States will
be a Democrat, and with tina. historical
event peace and harmony will be restored
throughout the length and breadth of the
Republic.
The speaker concluded by appealing to
every sensible German to support the nomi-
nations of the State Convention He retired

CHERRY RIPE.

There is a QUAINT grace in this Lyric, perfe'
in its kind, Characteristic Of the song writing {
the time. 1t is from work entitled "An Hour
Recreation in Music" by Richard Alison, pui
lished in 1906.
There is garden in her face,
Where roses and white lilies grow;
A heavenly Paradise is that place,
Wherein all pleasant fruits do flow.
There cherries grow, that none may buy,
Till cherry ripe themselves do cry.
These cherries fairly do enclose
OF orient pearl double row,
Which when her lovely laughter shows,
They look like rosebuds filled with snow.
Yet these no peer, nor prince, may buy
Till CHERRY ripe" themselves do cry.
Her eyes, like angels, watch them still;
Her brows like bended bows, do stand,
Threatening, with piercing frowns to kill
All that approach with eye or hand,
Those sacred cherries to come nigh,
Till CHERRY ripe themselves do cry.

Truly Said.

An editorial in the Sacramento Union,
speaking of the food of emigration pouring
into this country from Europe and China,
mixed the Germans and Chinese, and treated
both in the same terms, which has called
forth the following from a German residing
in Davisville, Yolo county. We believe
every leading Republican in the State holds
the same opinion of races as does the Union:
81 am German by birth, and have been
a supporter of the Sacramento Cnion for a
long time, but when the editors show them
selves to be so ignorant, and so lost to every
feeling of decency, as to place the German
and Chinaman upon the same footing, | say,
once for all, that paper shall never enter
my house again; and | wish to call the at
tention of every German and lrishman in the
State to the above article, in the hope and
belief that every one that has any pride for
himself, or lis country, will hereafter give
the Sacramento U,,iOn wide berth and a
cold shoulder.
Iwould say further for the benefit of that
paper, that so far as my knowledge extends
of the American people, they are composed
of German, Irish, English, etc, or their
descendants, and in no instance have l found
the German to be an inferior citizen. Ger
many has furnished to the world her share
of its philosophy, and her sons and daughters
that have settled iu this country have proved
themselves to be good and useful citizens.
BY their intelligence, industry, enterprise
and strict integrity as people, they have
contributed as much to the glory and pros
perity of this country as any one of the great
families composing the American people.
Their blood has wet every battlefield in de-
fence of liberty and the vindcation of our
rights from the early settling of this country
down to the present, and believe that the
wretch that penned that article is indebted
to the intelligence, bravery, yes, and blood
of the German and Irishman for the very
soil upon which he stands, and in his low
contemplate effort to insult the German and
Irish, by placing them upon the same foot
ing with Cinnamon, returns to them that
gratitude which is illustrated by the dog that
bites the hand that feeds him.

CuBA.-A list of persons who have been
executed and shot as rebels by the Spanish
authorities in the island of Cuba since Oc-
tobcr 10, 1868, has been prepared by ref
ugee from that island, now residing in New
York. According to an examination of the
files of Havana journals the executions Of
Cubans from October 10, 1868, to January
1, 1871, amounted to 1928. To these are
added 2,730 persons who were condemned
by court martial, or taken prisoners under
circumstances that would insure their death
making a total to January /. 1871, of A.
$50 persons. The data supplied by the
Havana newspapers since the beginning of
the present year, it is alleged, add 1850
to the number of suffers-so that 5 ,9OS per-
sons have been executed in Cuba for their
efforts to iberate that island from the do
minion of Spain.
