a dominant force may look to q future glorious in its hope and magniti- cent in its promise. The French Cana dian is perhaps less adjustable to his new conditions, but with proper in huences he may be brought to steer his national thoughts and feelings by the compass of Americanism.
 The future of New England is safe even though those who have descended from the original stock should pass altogether from it's soil and institutions with their influences and traditions. Whether it be the Celtic race or the French that becomes the dominant force, there will be no lapse from the sturdy Americanism that burned in the breasts of the revolutionists who threw off the shackles of British bondage and came forth to the world a gloriously free and independent people.
 New England's future is destined to be no less glorious than her past.

NEW ENGLAND'S FCTUR RE.

The shifting conditions that mark the physical and social elements of New Eng land and that are working together for a new integration make occasion for the Boston Herald to touch upon a matter that Is apt to be overlooked even by those who give some attention to SOCllo- logical problems. At the present time there is an irrepressible struggle for the mastery in New England. and the strug
 gle involves three nationalities-the Eng fish people descended from the original stock, the Irish Americans of the second generation, and three hundred thousand French Canadians new to the soil and hardly able to speak the English lan- guage. The American element is either dying out or emigrating to the west. The young and vigorous elements enter
 ing into the rural settlements, ,or engaged in labor in the manufacturing cities and towns. represent Irish and French blood, whence it looks to the Herald as if the future supremacy in this part of the country would lie between the French and the Celtic races. Very largely the life of the next generation-its spirit. its fire. its purpose-must come from this quarter, though controlled and moder- ated by the new environment.
 There could certainly be no better forces of amalgamation to continue the sturdy character of our New England population. Both races are industrious, accumulative, procreative to a high degree, lawabiding. self-respecting and progressive, thrifty. energetic and en- dowed with many of the characteristics that distinguished the early settlers of New England. In all that goes to make up good citizenship they are the peers of those who trace their origin to the Pilgrims. Waterbury has its share of French and Celtic stock, and in all that gives satisfaction in the present and hope for the future they stand shoulder to shoulder with their fellow citizens of American ancestry. In the principles and characteristics that belong tC Americanism-not the AmericanisIn of Abram $. Hewitt which is but another name for know -nothingism, but Amer icanism in its true sense-no race IS more advanced than the Celtic, and it will not be many generations before it may be said that they are more Amer jeans than the Americans themselves Thoroughly imbued with the spirit of American institutions, taking a deep in. terest in all that relates to the govern ment and politics of the country, and regarding the American flag as all that is sacred and glorious in its traditions of liberty, equality and justice, New Eng land or any portion of the, country in which the Irish-American may become
