rRE TRUE BUSINESS.

The Boston Pilot one Of the ablest and
~ ldicious Of the journals devoted to
Irish-American interests, says:
The man who received on the second
ballot 6SS votes, out OF . total of SO, in
q Democratic convention. Is ~unquestlon-
ably the choice OF the party. We
opposed the nomination Of Cleveland,
the candidate; we shall faithfully and
earnestly work for Cleveland. the Demo
cratic standard bearer. The Democratic
principle Is the Democratic party, and
this is infinitely greater than the men it
selects or rejects. 1t involves much more
than the personal likes and dislkes Of
Democrats. Not the interests of the
present men alone, but the future OF
American liberty is bound up with the
preservation of the Democratic party.
Those who wish to abide by its principles
must not follow wandering fires. To
Irish-Americans, in particular, we say:
What is the record Of the Republican
party in relation TO you for the past &c
years. What American citizen OF Irish
birth has it protected aboad. What
shameful outrages on American citizen
ship has it not allowed when England
was the perpetrator, and citizens OF Irish
extraction the victims. Not n Repub
liean hand has been moved to redress
these astonishing evils except Presiden'
Arthur's, and he had to whisper anC
smile his objections, because he repre-
sented the Republican party. Mr.
Blaine's voice, during all these years snC
when he sat in the Cabinet as Secretary o
State. would have been powerful to cor
rect, but il was never raised-not once
We say to Mr.. Blaine now that, had b
been . defender Of the rights of natural
lied citizens when those citizens wer
HungH into foreign prisons untried and IN
charged. the Pilot would support him to
day. and l.000,0 600 Americans of tn
Irish race would vote for him in Novem
Der. But he did not do it, and his pre-
tensions Of fair play and friendship no'
are sheer nothing.

When Irish.Americaus re being ar
rested ID Great Britain rs suspects
and .Ass into p~rison-to he there during
the pleasure Of HeE Aaiesty's Govern,
mert-Mr. Blaine made q record in the
matter and so did Mr.. Cleveland. Mr..
Blaine was invitea &C sttend a meeting
of Irish. Americans at Baltimore to take
counsel for the relief Of those who were
prisoners already and for the sake OF
others who were likely to be jailed at
any time. Mr.. Blaine not only did not
20. but he did not even notice the invi-
MISUNDERSTANDING the present
vigor Of his foreign policy" Mr..
Cleveland, being invited to a similar
meeting in New York, went. Nor wss
he either afraid or ashamed to express
himself on the occasion-which he did
squarely as follows:
We meet here tonight to consider this
subject and inquire into the cause and
the reasons and the justice OF the
prisonment of certain OF our ieiiow-citl-
zens now held in British prisons without
the semblance of 9 trial or legal exsmi-
nation. Our law declares that the Gov
eminent shall act in such cases.
And this is one of the rights which We
undertake to guarantee to any native
born or naturalized citizen OF ours,
whether he be imprisoned by order OF
the Car of Russia or under the p~retexi
of q law administered for the benens OF
the landed aristocraey Of England
That is the record Mr.. Cleveland made.
In it he planted himself on our national
laws and on international laws, which
every Democratic administration has en-
forced. and which the Republicans IN
der Mr.. Blaine's lead failed to enforce
This is the agis under which every nasu-
RAISED citizen seeks protection, and
which Mr. Blaine refused to throw over
them. Which Of the two will you
choose Tor your administrator Of these
avsf De who says you shall have this
protest On, or he who refused to grant it
