The Irish standard., 1893-04-08

In the early part OF March the mana
gers OF the Great Home Rule meeting
recently held in New York requested an
expression of opinion from the govern
ors Of Wisconsin and Minnesota, the one
a Democrat and the other Republican.
George w. Peck, the governor Of Wis
conein, said that If the Irishmen he had
met in this country are fair sample Of
those who still remain on the cold sod"
he would say that they were eminently
qualified to enjoy the privileges Of Home
Rule. Those whom he had met in this
country are we'll qualified TO conduct the
affairs of the people, either at home OF
abroad. Knute Nelson, 'the little Nor
wegian' who is governor Of this state,
responded in the following words: I
have always believed in system of
Home Rule for Ireland. Whether the
bill now pending in the British Parlla+
ment properly covers the field am un-
able to say. as have not had an oppor-
tunity to examine the provisions in de-,
tail. Even if the bill does not 70 Tar

land could desire, it Is at.all events q be-
ginning, and after the experiment. has
been tried, though on a limited scale, it
will be much easier to expand and cover
more ground if the experiment proves
success, as have no doubt It will.

There is very interesting Ms ia a the 1,'
handwriting Of Sir William l,e Neve.stl1lAl.
preserved in the Heralas College, Lon
den, on the subject Of the adoption q
the harp. In it are given the words O. o..
dissent Of the Earl Marshal, the Earl
of Northampton, which are worth quot
ing:
"Sir. VIM. Seager toald nae IT when ye
mmrs for ye first clay mes OF King
James had determined ye harpe to be
.quartered with France, England ana
Scotland for ye Armes OF Ireland, the
Earl Of Northampton Nord 81. HowarD
in shelving no affection in approving ye
same, sayd ye best reason that l can OBJ
serve for ye bearing thereof is, it resem-
bles vt country in being such an instrn-
ment it requires more cost to keep it IN
tune than it is werth; not three crowns
are ye antient armes of Ireland(th harpe
but an antient badge or device OF that
country from whence it came vt We're
Duke of Ireland had three crowns with 9
border given him in augmenta ton. In
the tyne of Edward ye Fourth COM
mission being to enquire ye armies OF
Ireland, it was returned vt three crowns
were We armies, and these armes have
seen upon ye reverse Of old Irish yles."
It is thus shown that azure, and azure
only, has been the color of Ireland since
the English conquests, and it is equally
clear that antecedently green was never
adopted by any of the great Celtic
houses from which the Kings OF Ireland
we're chosen. At the creation Of the or
der of St. Patrick an order instituted as
compliment to the nationality of Ire
land Gust after 'e2), and tbs volunteers,
when it was the object OF the King to
crafty the national sensibllity OF Ire
land, the color selected for the knights
was blue;the Royal Irish Regiments have
their facings generally blue, and never
green, and the uniform of the Irish Bri-
gade in the service Of France was red.
10 sum up: [ am clearly OF the opinion
that prior to the Anglo Norman invasion
there was not any one color or banner
adopted for ireland at large, that none
such is traceable in the old Celtic records
or authorities, none handed down by ira
dition, and none found mentioned in his
tory; and / am equally certain that since
the introduction Of English rule the ma.
tional color, established by and derived
from the national arms, has been inva-
riably blue. LII

JUDGE WILLIAM LoCHREN.

He Has Been Appointed Commissioner of
Pensions by President Cleveland.
Judge William Lochren, Of this city,
went to Washington last week in COM
pany with Hon. Michas Doran, Of st.
Paul, President Cleveland having OK
pressed desire to have him go. A
Washington dispatch says that Judge
Lochren was nominated Thursday for
Pension Commissioner, and that the APP
pointment is conceded by everybody to
be one of the best Cleveland could pos
sibly have made 1t is stated that the
Judge may receive better appointment
before the President goes out of Office.
Judge William Lochrsn was born
April 3, 1882, at Tyrone, ireland. He
came to America with his mother and
other relatives at the age of two years
and passed his youth in northern Yer
mont where he resolved common school
and academic education. He read law
and was admitted to the bar in Franklin
county, Vermont, in 1856. In that year
he came to St. Anthony. Since then he
has made that part OF the city, now the
east side OF Minneapolis, his home.
It was in August Of 1855 that Judge
Lochren put up modest shlngle over
his law Office. The next spring he en-
tered into partnership with James r.
Lawrence, Jr., and subsequently was
elected an alderman Of the city OF st.
Anthony.
| When President Lincoln called for
troops he enlisted April %, 1861, as a
private in company e, First Minnesota
regiment of volunteers. His courage and
efficient service brought him rapid pro-
motion, and on May 10 of the same year
he was made sergeant. On September
% of the next year he was again pro-
NOTED to be second lieutenant, and on
June8. 1863, he was given the commits
sion of first lieutenant, aud was acting
adjutant from the battle Of Gettysburg
for three months. He was in the famous
charge of the First Minnesota against
Pickett's men at Gettysburg. He re-
signed because Of i'll health and was hon.
orably discharged December 30, 1863.
He returned to st. Anthony and re-
sumed the practice of law as partner OF
Capt. o. G. Merriman. In politics Mr..
Lochren has always heed staunch Dem

torney general, but was defeated. He
was for number of years, however, city
attorney OF st Anthony, and vas mem
Der OF the state senate during 1859 and
1870.
In 1867 the law partnership with Capt.
Merriman was dissolved and in the spring
Of 1869 he entered into partnership with
w. w. McNair, since deceased. Two
years later John B. Gillian joined the
firm, which soon became one of the
strongest law firms in the city.
During 1877 and 1873, Mr.. Lochren
was city attorney Of Minneapolis. His
judicial work began soon after, when
NOV. -, 1881, ne was appointed one OF
the judges Of the district court Of the
Fourth judicial district OF Minnesota, by
Gov. John s. Pillsbury, 9 Repub lican.
This recognition was but proof Of his
ability, but . greater proof zof it still is
found III the fact thats he has held the
position ever since, having been twice r.
elected without opposition, his name BE-:

sometimes trimming of alternate

A new idea in Embarrassing is to
wave the hair all over the head, twist
a few curls into Il knot ut the crown,
and leave the ends of the curls TO fly

very much like that of a half fedged
barn-yard fowl.
Short sleeves of evening dresses are
made Cf five or seven tiny frills of
pinked silk, ribbon or silk muslin,
while desirably long sbouldered
