Cleveland "a fatal mistake" and con-
cludes by saying:
To lay the Democracy fiat once and
forever let us rally around the plat
form of Blaine and Logan.
MICHAEL DARCY.
Thomas Clark, a prominent Irish
Nationalist, of Pittsburg, Pa, writes
When we see such papers as the
London Times and the Pau Mall
Gazette supporting the nomination of
Grover Cleveland, the enemy of every
bill that favored labor and the sym
pathizer of the Morrison Free Trade
measure of the last session of Con-
gress, it is enough. We shall not for
get his conduct at the coming cleo
ton. We shall this fall teach lesson
to the politicians never to be forgot
ten. They won't count the Irish vote
this time.
From Gallipolis. Ohio, Mayor
Alexander writes letter, in which
he says:
/ am glad to know of so many
Irish going against Cleveland, for
when they vote against Cleveland
they vote against England, and if
England had the power in America
every Irishman would be ground in
the dust. Ny father was an Irish
man, and l am Irish, too. Three
cheers for Blaine and Logan.

The Catholic Herald says that
"free trade means the opening up of
new country Of fifty-fve millions to
the rayages of England" and that
accounts for the landslide of Ameri-
can Irishmen into the Republican
ranks.
The Irishmen of New Haven,
Conn, the free-trade headquarters,
who say they "are determined to re-
sent the brazen insult offered to our
race by the Democratic tricksters at
Chicago, and show England that we
have a mighty power which we will
oppose to her and her friends in
America" have organized a Central
Independent Irish A merican Blaine
and Logan Club. "All Irish and
Irish-A voters, who are in
favor of defeating TIE pro- English
and monopoistic candidate for the
Presidency" are INVITED to join.
J. G Duggan, writing from Sayan-
nah, Ga, says
The Democratic National Conven-
ton nominated man for President
of the United States whom England
wants, and which has called forth the
appropriation of the London Times,
| Standard, Daily News and Telegraph
and of the New York Times, Herald,
Harper's Weekly, Post, and Puck.
and English or pro-English papers
and haters of America and every
thing in it but its money, who are
advocates of Free Trade which won d
benefit AMI prosper England at the
expense and ruin of American indust-
~.
Is it any wonder that Patrick
Ford and every man who has intelli-
| gence, Ia riOtlSm and manhood in
HIM should get alarmed at the action
of party who ignOrantly or inten-
tIOnally have become the dupeS and
allies of England and the bowling
pack of American Tories and Free
Traders ?
An address has been issued by the
Executive Committee of the National
Irish Republican League to Ameri-
can citizens Of Irish birth giving sub
stantial reasons why they should all
vote for Blaine and Logan. A con-
vention of Irish American citizens
has been called, to meet at Cincin-
natl Sept. 80, for the purpose of
bringing the various Irish Organiza-
lions into harmonious action during
the campaign, and impressing upon
all the necessity of uphoIding and en-
forcing what is popularity known as
the "American policy" The Irish
are sound tariff men, and in the adj
dress above referred to Mr.. Blaine is
described as "the ablest living ex-
ponent of the patriotic doctrine of
protection to American labor and the
elevation of the toiling millions"
In Newark, N. j., there are three
Irish-A Blaine and Logan
Clubs. The Central Club has 80 men,
bers. A mass-meeting will be held
at the Academy of Music at an early
day.
George d. Lucas, a prominent
young Irish-American of Dubuque,
who has been President of the CleYe-
land and Hendricks Club of that
city, has resigned his position be-
cause he feels it his duty to vote for
Blaine and Logan, The club will ac-
cept his resignation, recognizing as
Blaine and Logan Club, and prob
ably elect Mr.. Lucas as President.
The members, of whom there are
about 40, are mostly Ilish.Ameri-
cans.
