To the Editor of the Globe:
ST.. PAUL, March 30.-There is not an
educated Irishman in Ireland or America
who has a thought that the Emerald Isle
can make any progress towards securing
its rights as a province of Great Britain
from that government, by the use of ex.
plosives, destroying property and endang-
ering the lives of the innocent as well as
those of the guilty, by the use of the knife
i OR gun of the secret assassin, or by any
other barbarous or violent measures, which
only serve the British government as an
excuse, and one which the civilized world
will not interfere with, to rivet the chains
of Ireland's oppression still tighter.
The course taken by Parnell and other
distinguished real friends of Ireland, both
of her nativity and not of it, in fighting
for the amelioration of the sufferings of
the Irish people in parliament, and those
seeking to release her from the unjust laws
of landlords, and secure her impartial trial
in the courts, has met with the universal
sympa thy of the civilized world, and was
sure in the end, with gathered impetus and
! adherents in the house of commons. to
bring about a revolution in England's OBJ
n%oxious method in governing that country.
But the Phoenix park murder and the
blowing up of the government buildings
n London with dynamite, and the reign
of terror threatened by the importation OF
deadly explosives into the cities of Eng
land, are the acts of a mad and unreason-
able sat Of hotiheads on both sides of the
Atlantic, who by these acts retard fol-
years the liberation of ireland from a
shameful thraldom.
If the intelligence of the Irish citizen
ship of Ireland and America could hold the
fort and suppress the wild spirit of folly
of those vino want to hoist the world with
a petard in five minutes and to have their
own personal hatreds thus gratifed, the
cause Of suffering Ireland would sooner be
served, but as it has been in the past, and
is in the present, the efforts of that nations
wiser minds to win her redemption from
despotic rule, By stragetic and diplomatic
measures. have always been frustrated by
the uncomfortable belligerent mistakes of
their w race.
