"a gang Of murderers," although a
single murder has not been proved
against them. The dynamite explo-
sions in London and elsewhere have
been singularly free from loss oflife.
Only one man, so far, has been per-
manently Injured and he became deaf
from the conclusion of an explosive.
If these men were murderers would
they not by the system OF scientific
warfare which they adopted be en-
abled to carry dread and consterna-
ton among the enemies of their coun-
try? So far. | find they have given
their attention TO the destruction of
public property, when tney could more
easily destroy human life. Dynamite
and other outrages will continue until
the causes of these outrages are re-
moved. VIII the great American re-
public consent to act as detective for
the purpose of saving England from
the result of her crimes, at the bare re-
cital of which humanity shudders.
Irish landlords, backed by the army
and navy of England murdered
one million Of my countrymen
in 40 and ~ by the worst of all posi-
bic deaths-slow starvation. Abolish
landlordism and outrages will cease.
- Ill. e.,l- 80 sha
dreadful period of four hundred years
the laws of the English gov
eminent did not punish the muir
der of one man of Irish blood" An
thony Froude declares i'll his work en-
titled "The English in Ireland" il
was no felony TO kill an Irishman,"
This horrible confession from Macin-
tosh aud Froude is true of he.prcsent
time. There is not Il single instance OF
an EDglisbman or an lrishman in the
English interest being punished for
the murder of an Irish patriot. sgd
ney Smith says: Il deny that any vol
untary concession was ever made by
England to Ireland. How did she get
the concessions that she now enjoys:
Not by favor, but by fear"
The grand old man Gladstone has
put on record the efficacy of outrages:
hear him: "A Jail in the heart of the
metropolis was broken open under
circumstances which drew the atten-
ton of the English people to the state
of Ireland And when Man
chester a policeman was murdered
in the execution of his duty, at once
the whole country became alive to the
question of the Irish church. II came
within the range of practical politics.
The Irish church act followed After
reading the testimony OF England's
greatest men, we cannot help coming
to the conclusion that outrages are
necessary. Since the Clerkenwell eX-
plosiou in 1865. Catholics. Methodists,
Presbyterians and others are not COM
PEELED by law TO support the Episco
pal church in Ireland. England has
used all neans however infamous TO
gain her ends. One hundred wears
ago she employed ;he savage Indians
TO murder the wives and children of
Americans whilst their husbands were
away in camp or calamity fighting
80, 4
months ago in the Soudan Gen. Ora
ham gave orders to his soldiers to bay
onet the Africans who lay wounded
and diving in the field after one of his
battles, and the order was executed in
Gen. Graham's presence. In India
this hellish power blew women and
children from the lannon's mouth, and
now when few brave Irishmen meet !
her with her own weapons, she cow
ardly calls on America to save her.
If mans hearth is desecrated by !
some viliainous scoundrel and he takes |
the law into his own hands and sends
the despoiler into eternity. no unprcj- !
udiced jury will convict him of more |
than a nominal ofiense At the bar of |
of public opinion among liberty peo-
pie Irish patriots should be so tried.
The bravest and most unselfiSh of our /
race have been murdered by England.
