there was no difference on the MAN
features Of the Society of the Friends
of Ireland and indeed there could De
none. 1t is admitted by all true
Irishmen that Ireland needs self-gOv-
eminent and the management OF her
own affairs, and it is the admitted
duty of all true Irishmen the world
over to assist her to obtain that posi-
ton. The Friends of Ireland are
organized on this basis and they 40
not propose to dictate to the people OF
Ireland or counsel rebellion at this
time, or any movement at home, put
to bend all their energies towards
unity Of sentiment among the irish
of America and the collection OF an
Irish fund to assist Ireland to gain

follow our example than the 'sFrlends

are ready to assist you in establishing
it. Make your declaration OF rights
and we will help you to assert anu
maintain them. This is the policy OF
the Friends of Ireland. Complete
harmony with the majority or the
people of Ireland. In a very short
time the Friends of Ireland by
reason of their numbeas, unity of
sentiment and length of purse may be
in position to inspire the ''men III
the gap with confidence and advise
decisive measures: until then they
will not disagree about men or meas
ures. The speaker closed with a for
chile appeal for active members to
help to propagate the policy OF the
Friends of Ireland. Quite large
number then came forward and signed
the Constitution making now some
fifty active members of the AssOcia-
ton.
The meeting was then addressed by

PUBLIC MEETING OF THE FRIENDS OF
IRELAND" SOCIETY.

On Wednesday evening August Sth.
the "Friends of Ireland" society held
it's first public meeting at Armory
Hall. in this city.
The object of the meeting was to
lay before the public a clear statement
of the views and principles on which
the society is based.
The meeting was fairly attended.
free and intelligent discussion entered
into. and general satisfaction express
ed as to the mode by which the society
proposed to help on the cause of Ire
land On calling the meeting to
order. the president. Dillon O'Brien
said:
LAS this is the first public meeting
of the Friends of Ireland, it is right
| that | should make brief statement
as to the object of the society, the
reasons for calling it into existence
and the principles upon which 1t is
founded. The object of the society is
to assist the Irish people in obtaining
self-government. This in itself. is
reason sufficient for the organization
of an Irish national society. where
ever there is an Irish community. The
immediate reason is. that the present
state of Europe holds out hope that
Ireland s OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES s diff
ffculty-may be drawing near and that
we should endeavor to increase the
difficulty by preparing to help the
opportunity. Not that [ believe that
Ireland's opportunity depends alto
gether on England's difficulty. but
rather on Irish unity. Were the Irish
at home and abroad. united. as they
should be. Ireland 5 opportunity would
be to-day. The Irish race in this
country. is fully one-fourth of the
population, it's position wonderfully
advanced within the last few years
and it is really only a question Of Irish
unity. together with loyalty to the
land of our fathers, whether Ireland
shall or shall not have control, in the
near future, of her own government
Unity is the great factor in this
Irish problem. This was prominent
idea with those who took part in
founding this society. and if the plan
on which it is based does not tend tC
bring about unity and harmony among
Irishmen. will be very much disap
pointed.
Not alone, in my opinion. does il
tend to unite us. but, likewise, what
is of equal Importance. to unite us OF
sound healthy basis.
The Friends of Ireland, hold tina
Ireland belongs. by rigrt. to the Irisl
people in Ireland. that it is for then
to say what form of government the.

of sbread and water, and water ana

county officers.in the new court house,
have drank in one month six thousand
gallons of water!
Wasted. we may say. in watery DIS
sipation such vast quantity of the nu-
tritious food which is to be hereafter
the light pleasant diet OF American
mechanics.
What does it mean we ask.
Was it done designedly, wantonly,
in order to make it more difficult Tor
the laboring man to cool his "true IN
wardness," with this refreshing diet.
The abstemious habits OF our coun-
ty officials heretofore. i'll regard to
water, is well known. the smallest

for it!

THE DOCTORS IN CONSULTATION.

The republic is sick. the disease
manifests itself in organized strikes,
anarchy, destruction of property, loss
of life, and armies of houseless men
known as tramps.
The editorial doctors, who have
called themselves in to prescribe for
the patient have, as far as we can
Judge, shown themselves to be shall
low, unprincipled quacks; they would
cure the disease by killing the patient.
Some propose a standing army OF
one hundred thousand men. This
may be termed the bullet cure. 1t
would undoubtedly assist capital to
keep hungry labor from any over acts
of laWlesSnesS. but it would more ef-
fectually drive such il mammoth
hole through the very heart of the
republic, that monarchy, preceded
by its outrider. 1.-The man on horse
back would have no difficulty in
passing in to rule II people who had
not virtue sufficient to rule them
selves. Others propose that the gov
eminent should become the owner
and operator of all the railroads in the
United States. This is absurdly i'm
practical but if it could be carried out
it would establish an oligarchal tyr
amy here. from which the people
would flee to The protection of mon
archy, rs men flee from plague
stricken city to the healthy air of the
open country. The only benefit we
would derive from this plan would
be that it would put an end to politi-
cal campaigns and stump speeches
that now surcharge the very clouds
with falsehoods, for whatever party
was lucky enough to be in power
when the government commenced to
run the machine would unques-
tionably remain i'll power during the
short time in which the fetid corpse
of the republic would remain over.

enough to attempt to defeat it by
