Ireland's only salvation lies In the null
tiplication Of her business interests and
opportunities. The only possibility for
such multiplication lies In protecting in
dustries as they start from the COM
petition Of England's enormous capt.
tai In money, plant and experience. Till
Ireland becomes self-sufiicing and indie
pendent industrially, 1t can never be indie
pendent politically. 1t might be expected
that the people of the United States would
learn wisdom from the example set before
them in the condition of Ireland. Itmight
be expected especially that Irishmen who
know the state of their native land would
be the last men in this country to consort
with the party Of free trade which seeks
to reduce the United States to a similar
condition, and all for the ultimate benefit
OF the same manufacturers of England
for whose ACKNOWLEDGEMENT Irish manufact-
urers were ruined and Irish prosperity
destroyed. New Haven Palladium.
