A PATRIOTIC APPEAL.
President Fitzgerald to His Exilod countr

Tie following circular has been addressed
by President Fitzgerald to the state dele
gates OF the Irish national league OF Amer
lea, In view OF the present crisis in Ireland.
SIR-The tory government ofGreat Brit
ain has once more evinced its incapacity
to govern Ireland by other means than
coercion. Our brethren in Ireland are
again called on to showby courage suffer-
ing and selfsacrifce that they are the
heirs Of their fathers heroism. The time
has come when we should prove by our
actions that our hearts beat In unison with
theirs in a common love for Ireland and
liberty. A few weeks since we promised
that should England again have recourse
to coercion We would stand by them. We
must now redeem that pledge. Public
ing crowded into the country to overcome,
and should opportunity offer, to slaughter
the people. Prison cells await the nations
leaders, and every engine of oppression
and unconstitutional legislation Is about
to tIo be used to prop up tyranny and injus-
tions of Ireland. We must sea to it that
our promise of assistance was no idle
boast. State delegates are called upon to
proceed at once to the work Of organizing
the league in their respective states and
provinces. They should use every means
to increase the membership of existing
branches and establish new ones, and
should urge the officers of branches within
their Jurisdiction to devise means to
promptly raise funds and forward them to
the national treasurer, Rev. Chas. O.
Reilly, ID. D., Detroit, Mich, in aid of the
anti-eviction fund. We must not stand
idle in the face of the pre-. ent crisis Ex-
perience has proven the futility of coercion
to crush q determined and united people
with the loyal aid of her exiled children.
Ireland must come out of this struggle
unconquered, unconquerable and victori-
Gus. Yours faithfully,

three days. At the expiration of the time the

EVERY CRIMINAL cHINAMAN
Out of San Quentin and other prisons, and
place them back in their own country, on
their own soil-brand them, and Danish
them to their home-not to any place they
might choose, but send them back to their
home. They were criminals when they
came here; they committed crimes; and
to shut them up in the States Prison and
keep them there, and tax the people to sup
port them year after year, was perpetuating
an outrage, and it was clearly within the
province of Californians to petition the
Legislature, or elect men to 90 there and
pass such laws and put it into execution.

AS u Senator he is laborious and attentive
to the discharge of his duties. He has u
very large correspondence, and answers al
most every respectful letter that isaddressed
to him. lie has employed two secretaries
ever since he has been in Washington. The
Senator is seldom on the floor, as he thinks
there are u great many questions where the
Senators have made up their minds, and
long discussions do not conduce TO the pub

valuable time that might be bettcremployed
though on great questions, involving i'm
portant principles, he is usually heard. On
all strictly party questions he votes with
the Democrats. On questions that do not
involve Democratic principles he votes in
accordance with the dictates of his own in
dividual judgment, and sometimes differs
with the majority of the Democrats in the
Senate.
Senator Brown makes no pretensions to
cloquence. His speeches are argumentativc,
embracing such business principles as may
