On the 22d of this month thc Tory government Of England decided by the rejecti n of Par nells land bill, the eviction and con sequ-nt starvation or punishment of thousaods of men. women and children. Gladstone has truthfu'ly said that every such eviction was equal to n sentence Of death. Ans, many evIctIons resulted in mary deaths, but this was prior to the organIzation of the Irish National League and If l am not greatly mIs- taken in the p-esent temper Of the Irish race that barbarity will never again be permitted on Gods creatures any where. Until recently the sad story of Ireland was only known Co her sOns. Now 1t is uppermost in the minds of all ChrlstsndOm. The Outsp0ken sym p6thy of the world is with her children in their struggle for home and liberty. Lord Salisbury and his government will soon discover that they can never siarye. exterminste nor subdue by coercion, the Irish people fight Cn EvictiOns for non payment os impossible rents have commenced, Gods creatures are being rer iered homeless and turned out OE the road eide, but they shall not die the dssth planned for them by heartless ty-| rants. Therefore appeal to every man and woman with Irish blood cOursing m their veins to aid in resisting this m human brutality. Let every branch of the league Bt once start a1 anti-svictiOn fund and send contributions tO the Ma tIOuRl teaCue tO Rev. S. OReilly, De trOIt. MIch. Branche- should by started ID every town and village in the country, m workshops and on railroads. Rich and poor should unite in this human and patriotic work. Organization Is necessary to resist organized tyranny.
