The Irish standard. [volume] (Minneapolis, Minn. ;) 1886-1920, 1893-10-07

AN interesting article showing that the
American people are not Anglo-Saxon
recently appeared from the pen of I. o.
Russell in the New York Independent.
The writer not only proves that the peo-
pie OF the Upited States are not of Anglo
Saxon origin, but he demonstrates very
conclusively that the English people
themselves are far from being so. Prof.
Matthews several years ago showed the
fallacy of Anglo-Saxondom, and the great
Archbishop Hughes rty.five years ago
showed that there is really no Anglo
Saxon race in existence at all. And yet
Anglo. maniacs are never tired of glorify-
ing the Anglo-Saxon race.

The Duke of Connaught is said to be
"a bastard in war;" to use the words Of
Sir Walter Scott. In the battle of Tel
el. Kebir, the Duke and his brigade were
sent to the rear for safety by Sir Garnet
Wolseley while an Irish regiment was
placed in the van. And yet Wolseley
said in his official report of the battle
that Connaught led his brigade CALAMITY
to the attack. 1t appears that Sir Gar
net had received orders from England in
spired by "Her Majesty" to protect the
Duke from harm, and he carried ont the
instructions given him.

Hon. VIM. HENRY EUs11s, the Mayor
of Minneapolis, is recognized as pyro-
technio orator of the first rank, but as a
geometrician he is failure. The other
day he visited the high school in COM
pany with the board of education, and
to impress them with his proficiency in
the higher mathematics he took a crayon
pencil and went to the blackboard to
solve problem in trigonometry for the
class. To his utter confusion he failed
to solve it, and the smiles on the BEAM
ing faces of the pupils SO disconnected
him that he made a hasty exit from the
building.

The citizens of this country are be-
ginning to think that the United States
Senate bears close resemblance to the
British House of Lords. The members
of both houses are wealthy men far re-
moved from the people. The House of
Lords is composed of hereditary legisla-
tors who represent nothing but their
own class, while the United States Sem
ate is made up Of eighty eight men who
secure their seats because Of their wealth
and are elected by the peoples represen
tatives instead of by the people them
selves. They also seem to care little for
the interests of the people, as they are
not responsible to them for their actions.
Gladstone has recently threatened the
Lords, while Cleveland ssys of the SEN
ate: II confess / am astonished by the
opposition in the Senate to such prompt
action as would relieve the present un-
fortunate situation. Ny daily prayer is
that the delay occasioDed by such oppo-
sition may not be the cause Of plunging
the country into deeper depression than
it has yet known, and that the Democra-
tic party may not be justly held respon-
sible for such q catastrophe" The time
is ripe for amending the Senate. The
people Of the United Kingdom are crying
out. down with the House Of Lords!,
and the people OF the United States
should demand that United States Sena-
tors be elected by direct vote Of the
people as in the case Of members Of the
House Of Representatives. 81. +.

The military orrespondent Of the
Dublin Freeman's Journal records the
sudden and untimely death Of Surgeon
Major Parke, native Of Dublin, Who re-
Gently passed away at the early age OF
36 years. The gallant young Irishman
was the recipient OF many honors from
literary and medical associations and
had written several works OF great value.
He accompanied the Emin Pasha Relief
expeditionwlth 8 anley and had medical
charge of the party. The African OK
plorer said of him that his like would
never again be seen in the '.dark contin-
emit" What were his rewards from the
British government? asks the Freeman
correspondent. Absolutely nothing.
The curse of Swife was upon him-hs
was an Irishman. "Why," says the mill
tary writer, IF Parke had been French
man, military honoure and promotion
would have been given him, he would
have had triumphal entry INTO the
capital, and the Parieians. would have
gone mad about him. But the fault
does not lie at the door of the English
people, cold and phlegmatic as they are,
but with the systematic same that
gives posts of eminence to Royal dull
lards while he who possesses experience
merit, and years of hard war services must
20 unrequited, and suffer to be passed
over, though his name be upon every
tongue"

The croftere in the. Scottish High
lands are as badly treated by their land
lords as are the peasant farmers of Ire
land. The i'll usage of the oottiers of Ire
land is known the world over, but that
of their Scotch brethren is not so we'll
known. It is only the other day that a
London dispatch conveyed the news
q ross the Atlantic that the poor croftere
of Scotland are being driven to despera-
ton by the cruelty of the aristocracy.
Destitution is said to exist as much in the
Highlands Of "bonnie Scotland" as IN the
billy districts of Donegal. The sturdy
Scotch peasantry are not so patient un-
der wrongs as the Irish have been. The
officers of the law who are engaged in
evictions in Scotland are met by disguised
men and women who pelt them with
stones and other missiles. They are get
ting the worst of it from the brave
crofters, and it may be necessary to en-
ploy the troops to eject them from their
homes as in Ireland. The Scottish
Liberal members of parliament will ad-
vocate the cause of their prosecuted
countrymen and denounoe the use Of
military force IN coercing them to pay
impossible rents. The Scotch and Irish
have common cause, and it is crafty
ing to observe that they are working IN
unison for redress of grievances. The
Scotch and Irish tyrants who own the
land are the men who recently voted
against Home Rule for Ireland.

IT affords The IRISH STANDARD much
pleasure to note the exalted character OF
such Irish dramas as "Mavourneen,
"Glendalough," and "The Irish States
man. The last named play was on the
boards in this city during the week just
closed, and we have no hesitation in say
ing that it is one of the very best repre-
sensations of the Irish character that we
have ever seen on the stage. Carroll John
son, in the role of Osmond O'Su]livan, "the
Iri h Statesman" does full Justice to the
Irish character and he is ably supported
by the other members of the company.
Such plays deserve success and ought to
beencouraged by Irish-Anerican theatre
goers. This comedy company will appear
in West Superior, Duluth, Winona and
Saltwater, and every man, woman and
child of the Irish race in these cities will
be amused and delighted by the rendition
of ''The Irish Statesman" The hero of
the play is young Irish schoolmaster
who emigrated to America from Kerry
and rose to eminence as statesman in
Washington. Every one will think of
Bourke Cochran, the Galway immigrant
who made the famous speech at the Chi
ca9o convention and is now one of the
most conspicuous statesmen in the
United States. Congress. No Irishman
with patriotic feeling should fail to wit
ness this superb Irish play. The author
is Fitzgerald Murphy, a protege of the
late John Boyle O'Reilly.
