Mr.. Blaine to an Irish-American.

In 1850. just before the election of Gen.
Garfield, Mr.. Blaine wrote the following let
ter to an lrish-American in reply to some
inquiries;
AUGUSTA, Me-. October %, 1850.
Ny Dear Sir: | received your friendly
letter with much pleasure. Let me say in
reply that the course Of yourself and other
Irish voters is one of the most extraordinary
anomalies in our political history. Never.
probably, since the execution of Robert
Emmett has the feeling of Irshmen the
world over been so bitter against England
and Englishmen as at this hour. And vet
the great mass Of the Irish voters will, on
Tuesday next. vote precisely as Englishmen
would have them vote-for the interests of
England. Having seen Ireland reduced to
misery and driven TO despair by what they
regard as the unjust policy of England the
Irishmen Of America use their suffrages as
though they were the agents and servants
of the English Tories. The free traders Of
England desire nothing so much as the de-
feat of Garfield and the election Of Hancock.
They wish TO break down the protective
tariff and cripple our manufactures, and
nine-tenths Of the Irish voters of the country
respOnu Win didciitss les We VIII 40 touI
bidding and vote as you please, even though
it reduce our wages and take the bread from
the mouths of our children" There are
MANY able men and clever writers among
the Irish in America, but have never met
one of them able enough and clever enough
to explain this anomaly on any basis of logic
and good sense. am glad to see from
YOUR esteemed favor that the subject is be-
ginning 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 prosperity Of the
Irish in this country depends as largely as
that of any other class upon the maintenance
Of the financial and industrial policy repre-
scented by the Republican party.
Very truly yours, >. y. DIANE

Victims ofthe British Policy.



Upon several countries the British policy
of securing commercial supremacy BY free
trade has had full sway and has done its
perfect work. Ireland, India and Turkey
are the most conspicuous victims Of that
policy which the Golden clubs. the British
press and the revenue reform or free trade
press in this country would extend TO the
United States The results OF this policy
upon those countries would he interesting
studies even if the purpose Of the British
magnates 10 force the policy which brought
them about upon the American people we're
not clearly understood. They are tenfold
more important when il is known that the
commercial power which rules Great Britain
and its hired agents and allies in this
country are making a desperate effort to
establish the same policy IN the United
States as has pauperized Ireland. subjugated
India, and ruined Turkey.
IL the free trade theories were true, Ire
land ough, TO be the most prosperous
country in the world. II is fertile island
in a temperate latitude, with capaeious har

and above all. it has had perfect free trade

il is the most impoverished country. and It's
people are the most wretched, of any in the
civilized world. This has not always been
So Before the fatal Act of Union in 1901.
Ireland was prosperous country. and its
people were as free from want as any in
Europe.
For MANY wears Ireland has been forced
to minister 10 the prosperity of England 10
its own disadvantage. As long ago as l6Ss
ireland was forbidden TO export woolens, so
that English manufacturers might secure
the raw wool of that country to manufacture
at their own price. Ireland was prohibited
from exporting wooden cloths and glass 10
the colonies.
Irish ships were deprived of the benefits
Of the navigation laws. The fisheries were
closed TO them aud merchandise from the
colonies could reach Ireland only by re-ex-
portation from England. During our Rev
oiution the situation Of England with refer
ence to other nations was SO critical tina;
Ireland had 10 be placated by the removal
o: restriction from her trade and industries
In 1888 Ireland was declared independent Of
these restrictions, and although England had
the start of nearly century in methods,
capital and machinery. Ireland made COM
mendab.e progress until the Act Of Union
in 1901. By virtue Of the provisions Of this
&C, the duties established by the irish Par
lament were gradually diminished until

words. Manchester and Birmingham were

they propose To do for the United States.
