A Radical Trick.

The recent riot, it's causes and its
circumstances, continues to fill the
columns of the New York press. Con-
sidering all that has happened, there
seems no reason to doubt that the
superintendent of Police, kelso, knew
his business best when he undertook
to prevent the chance of mob by
stopping a parade which was sure to
produce one. There was really but
one sure way to stay the effusion of
blood, and that was by removing the
cause of disturbance.
No religious question W h a tie vel
should bo allowed to enter into the
discussion. The Society of Orange is
not representative of Professionalism.
It is composed mainly of foreigners,
who do not owe allegiance to this
country, and who even when naturAi-
zed confess but. q limited allegiance.
Their existence is constant menace
70 the Irish people. They themsel-
YES are the Descendants of carpet
haggers who have preyed upon Ire
land for couple of centuries. Their
public displays overflow with insults
to conquered people. 1t is true that
they are Protestants and that the mass
Of the Irish are Catholics. But they
are also adherents of the English gov
ernment as against Irish freedom, and
the question of patriotism ia enlisted
much stronger in the matter than the
question ofrcligion. Nothing could be
stupider on the part of Americans than
the disposition to MAKE church case
ont of it. 1t is as ifthe Radicals in the
South should celebrate Lees surrender
every year with odious decorations
and inscriptions. No one viii dispute
the right to parade; bat the public
order is more important than any
mere abstract right. fla body of men
set out with arms to brow beat another
