WINNING THE GOAL,
BY D. w.


When to the heart come doubt and fear,
And bitter thoughts prevail,
And prospects, once 80 bright and dear,
Before misfortune fail,
Then he who holdeth fast to hope,
To self win truest be,
And daring with his fears to cope,
Shall win the mastery.
This life is full OF stumbling blocks.
To those who dread the worst;
way by thorns, and Jagged rocks,
And hidden pits accursed!
But he of prudent courage shuns
The treacherous CULTS that hide,
And, pressing forward, as he runs
Thrusts rock and thorn aside.
There is no hill, however high,
But persevering feet
Shall reach the summit, by and by
TO find a resting sweet;
And men whose hearts are true and wise,
And strong and rssolute,
t5nall re1rd the s&Sarriers that ariae
Their pathways to t.1sn,Ite e7 @
Doubts grow into infirnities
Ofconstant pain ald care,
And fears, whatever be their guise,
Unchecked, produce despair.
Then i've life of faith and truth,
And in your hearts unite
The hope and love whose fadeless youth
Shall fill it full of light!

\ After the new League had become
permanently organized, Mr.. j. 2. For
tune delivered an enthusiastic speech
to his hearers. He spoke Of the suf-
ferings Of Ireland from the English and
eulogized Parnell in his efforts in behalf
of a local government. He was re-
ceived with applause. Following his
remarks, the audience joined in singing
"God Save Ireland after which q.
CART favored the assemblage with a
selection on the fife. 1t was voted to
hold a meeting each Monday night, and
the meeting thereupon adjourned.
Patrick Egan, president Of the Irish
National League of America, was in
terviewed last Monday at Lincoln, Neb.,
regarding the report that Parnell will
not attend the Chicago convention, and
the statement that bitter dissensions
exist in some of the Irish associations,
which will probably lead to unpleas-
antness in the convention, said:
The statement that Parnell will not
attend is a mere conjecture. He has
promised to come. I know he is anx-
ious to come, and believe he will come
in any case. At least three OF the very
best men Of the party will certainly be
sent over. The statement that the
lord mayor-elect of Dublin, I. D. Sui
livan, Mr.. Haley or I. r. O'Connor
could not come, as each had been elect
ed for two constituencies, is absurd.
The new Parliament will meet about
the second Thursday OF February, and
whoever comes over will have ample
time to get back by that time. With
regard to the reported factionalism, |
have only to say there are some differ
ences amongst Irish-Americans, just
as there are in various American party
organizations, but, fortunately thoy are
confined almost entirely to New York.
Taking the Irish American element as
a whole it is united on this Irish Ma
tional question as it has never before
been, and have every reason to e1-
pect that the approaching convention
at Chicago will beas every other con-
vention since the commencement Of
this movement has been--a model of
order, self-respect, harmony and patri-
otlc devotion.
