ROCHESTER,, NY, June 2O.-Bishop
McQuaid has opened subscriptions to the
Irish parliamentary fund in this city with
check for $780, His contribution is ac-
companied by the following letter:
To Mr.. Patrick Cox. treasurer of the Irish
parliamentary fund. dear sir: / enclose my
check for S1G0 for the fund OF which you are
treasurer. The most promising hour Ireland
has known since her parliament was fraudu-
lently taken from her IS at hand The long
years of patient suffering but persistent re-
fusal to accept degradation are about to end
The people Of Ireland omit ing a small mi
norlty, demand the right to enact
for themselves such legislation as
the Interests of the country require. The
thoughtTul and serious people of Ireland
make this demand. The English people con-
TESS that great wrong has been perpetrated
and that reparation, quick and ample, should
be made. The American people, with q
unaniInity that is cheering, claim for Ireland

are conceded. While in making these de-
mands they keep within the bounds of justice
and law, they will have with them, in SYM
pathy and substantial aid. the liberty
loving and rigid mind of every
free country in the world. The cleo
ton now in hand in Great Britain
may not settle this momentous question of
home rule for Ireland but it's successor will
end and for good, centuries of cruel wrong
inflicted on an oppressed people. My convic-
ton is founded on the justice of the Irish
cause primarily and secondarlly on the fact
that by the extension of the ballot, power is
passing from the few to the many. My trust
in the people is. and always has been, firmer
and more confident than in kings or the
select few. My present contribution is for

help the Irish use the favorable opportunity

momentary defeat without losing courage or
yielding to despair. A steady agitation of a
whole people has yet failed of success. Very

time trying to rid himself of previous
knowledge of the names called out, in order
that he might judge whether stranger

men. Said he:
