Senator Blaines Letter to an Irishman.
Especial Dispatch to the Press.l
BANGOR, Oct. 29.-The subjoined letter
from Senator Blaine was written to one of the
most prominent and influential Irish citizens
in Eastern Maine. He does not desire his
name to appear, but he sends the letter to the
Wing and Courier for publication.
AUGUSTA, Oct. q, 1880.
My Dear Sir:-l received your friendly letter
with much pleasure Let me say in reply,
that tie course of yourself and other Irish
voters is one of the most extraordinary anom-
allies in oar political history. Never probab y
since the execution of Robert Emmett, has
the feeling OF Irishmen, the world over, been
so bitter against England and Englshmen as
il is at this hour. And yet the great mass of
the Irish voters in the United States, will, on
Tuesday tnext, yotes precisely as English men
would have them vote, for the interests of
England.
Having sem Ireland reduce to misery and
driven to despair by what they regard as the
unjust policy of England, the Irshmen of
America use their suffrage as though they
were the agents and servants of the English
Tories. The Free-traders of England desire
nothingso much as the defeat of Garfield and
the elecsion of Hancock. They wish to break
down tftB Protective Tariff and cripple our
manufactures, and nine-tenths of the Irish
voters in this country respond with alacrity,
Eyes, we will do your bidding and vote to
please you, even. though it reduce our own
wages and take the bread from the mouths of
our children" 81
There are many able men and many clever
writers among the Irish In Ameri, a, bnt
have never met any one of them able enough
or clever enough to explain this anomaly Oh
any basis of logic and good sense.
am glad to see from your esteemed favor
that the subject is beginning to trouble you.
The more you think of it the more you will
be troubled, / am sure. And you will be-
driven finally to the conclusion that the pros
perty of The Irish in this country depends
largely as that of any other class upon the
maintenance of the financial and industrial
poiicy represented by the Republican party
Very truly yours,
j. G. BLAINE.
