Of the writer. In saving this, we
do not wish to be understood aS in
Guiding all EngIishmen, for Ireland

the Government OF England, and
we don't care who tells Gladstone
or little Vic.
But there is a moral connected
with to-day's celebration which
should not be lost on the Irish peo-
pie Of America. In the several ci-

there will be professions Of IIibcr-

ceivc every creature lie had made,
a people that had formula ted laws
giving to those who sprung from
Erin rights denied them under the
shadow Of the Suburst, thus cna-
bling them to feel that they are
their own owners, responsible only

sonality and its outcroppings.
