Was st. Patrick a German?

Karl Blind, in an interesting es-
say in the Neue Frere Presse, de-
MES that that the ancient "Fenier"
were Irishmen in the present sense
Of the word. "The old Irish Fen
ian heroes" he says, "as we see
them in the poems which have
come down to US in Celtic language,
are evidently no Celts or Celt-
Iberians. They are described as
gold-haired, red-cheeked, blue
eyed and white-skinned. They
drank beer out of drinking horns"
He contends that no ethnographer
will doubt that the men so de-
scribed can have been of any other
race except the German. The
true "Fenians" were, conse-
quently, Teutons-let us say "Sax-
ons"-who forced their way into
Ireland and filled it with their fame
at some prehistoric date! But this
conclusion does not rest on the
ethnographical type of the
Fenians alone there are
pathological evidences to its proba-
bility. Words plainly German
such as "fetchen," for instance
are found embedded in the midst
of the Celtic texts. "St, Patrick
himself" says Herr Blind, "was
not an Irishman by birth. st.

most emphatically that there is no
part of the civilized world where
the lives of foreigners are better protected,
or where the people, from the richest
to the poorest, are more kindly disposed
and hospitable. A knowledge of the pre-
vailing language is of course necessary for
the transaction of business, as it would be
in New York, Berlin or Paris. As might
be expected in a tropical country, the soil
of which produces almost spontaneously
the necessaries and even the luxuries OF
life, the natives as a rule are indolent. By
judicious selection laborers can be procured
for less than 81 per day whose capacity for
work and powers of endurance are above
the average laborer in this country. The
immense auriferous territory, covering a
space of several thousand square miles,
| and comprising the States of Antioquia,
Bolivar, Cauca Panama and Tolima, is in
tersected by large rivers, on which machin-
| cry can be carried within few miles of
the mines. Knowing that gold in almost
| fabulous quantities is to be found in Co
lombia awaiting capital and enterprise to
extract it, l address you for the purpose of
correcting the false impression regarding
the country likely to be produced by such
statements as those which appeared in the

THE Congress of American Nations"
bill has passed the Senate. English and
German interests antagonize the act
strongly, and the effort to defeat it finally
will be powerful. England and Germany
are bitterly opposed to any counseling
between the States of North and South
America. The reason is patent; Germany
is the chief influence at this time in Mexi-
can commerce; England is the motive
power in the South American trade.
Her steamship lines do most of the trans
portation, her merchants furnish most of
the foreign supplies. If the States of the
Americas amicably meet and consider
their natural commercial relations, the re-
suit viii very probably be an immediate
enlargement of our trade with such States.
Our commerce has declined in these di-
rectlons for number of reasons, which we
have from time to time recounted in these
columns. Should the bill mentioned fail
to become law, it will be looked upon,
and will be foreign commercial triumph,
and mean further decadence of our Amer
lean export trade.

DOES Lord Salisbury really think that
the people of any civilized country are
deceived by such declarations as this /:
"The enforcement of the criminal law is
coercion?" And, again. that if Mr.. Glad
stone opposes coercion, he is an ally of the
criminal classes? There is no student of
law of a single weeks reading who cannot
see the faIlacy of such doctrine, and the
wholly illogical character of such declara.
ton. Coercion laws are never intended to
include the laws against crime, and for the
punishment of those who kill, rob and
destroy. A law is eoercive that enforces
obedience upon the part of large body of
people in some civil matter, to which they
are opposed in sentiment, and the applica-
ton of which they believe to be bad pol
icy or unjust.

The Council of the Federated Trades in
session at San Francisco last Friday passed
resolutions condemning the policy of the
late Anti-Riparian Convention, and de-
claring that State ownership is the true
policy. This was in all probability wholly
unexpected by the anti-riparianists but if
they had been careful in their study of the
drift of labor organization, they coold not
have failed to discover that it is moving in
the direction of augmenting the power of
the state, and leading up finally and inev-
itably to that modified socialism which
would make the state the chief arbiter in
all affairs relating to property and to labor
How much of development the sentiment
may attain, it is very difficult now to fore
cast The organization of labor interests
looks, of course, to eventual political con-
troll, and that means, in turn, the CONVEX
sion into legal enactment of the ideas of
the laboring element, the manifestations of
which are seen in the various local organ
izations known as Trades Unions. The
hope of the country is that these organiza-
tions will grow under our free system into
that conservatism which is necessary in a
government where rights are equal and
duties are mutual.

afford by reinstating the Democracy the
coming fail to condone its infamy. The
rats may retire for a season, but retain the
party in power and they will again come
TO the surface. There was time when
the Republican party undertook to Guido
its rival in demagogic bidding for the sup
port of a supposed popular sentiment
against railroad companies simply and
solely because they were railroad COM
panies, and because few men believed
they could climb to station by that route.
The people rebuked it deseryedly, and it
took its retiracy in consequence. The
time has forever gone when campaign
can be successfully projected upon the line
of luminosity to industrial interests that
are inextricably interviewer with the best
interests of the people. Throughout the
State the note of preparation is heard
for the coming struggle. 1t be-
hooyes Republicans to prepare with
thoroughness, and determination to win.
They cannot afford to jeopardize the inter
ests of the party by conceding single
point to the enemy. We must have Re
publican Legislature next winter, and the
assurance given of the election of Re
publican to the United States Senate
This can be secured if there is the exer,
else of ordinary wisdom and patriotism
The experimental folly of the Democracy
has given the Republican party decided
advantage; if it is lost, it will be the fault
of the party alone. Its rank and file must
see to it that the people are not deluded
by the promise and protest Of the Demo
Gratis who were not led astray by the radi-
Gals. They will be told that the true men
Of that party have come to the front, and

for trained help. The Secretaries of the
committee visit local Secretaries and coun-
sci with them concerning their difficulties.
Through public meetings, conferences with
the members and personal calls upon bust
ness men they aid in promoting
the general efficiency of the work.
The annual expenses of the committee has
increased from $500 in 1866 to over $50, 900
in 1886. This comes from voluntary con-
tributions from local associations and bust
ness men, who know and appreciate the
work being done. With the present force
of secretaries the committee is unable to
meet the numerous calls that now come to
it for help. 1t has rendered substantial

trusts the way will open for it to do much
more in the future than in the past.

AND now the Senate is about to be con-
vulsed by the oleomargarine debate. 1t
might be good idea for Senators to file
copies of the House debate, and consider
ing the thing considered, go to a vote as
soon as its committee reports. The coun-
try demands the bill. 1t is within the
province of Congress to enact such a pro-
tective law; it does not appear to do any
wrong to any industry, since whatever
burden it takes from one of the competing
industries involved, it cannot wholly re-
move the injury done the dairy interest by
oleomargarine manufacture. In taxing
the latter, therefore it only puts a share
of the burden upon it that belongs to it.
