M'NuLTY'S CASE
A Statement Made Which Places the
Matter in New Light.

Simon McNulty, who was sent to the
penitentiary in Illinois for trouble at an
election, and who was recently par
doned BY Gov. Altgeld, because OF the
i1regularity of his incarceration writes
10 the Irish Standard to make some cor
rections in an article published last week
in this paper concerning him.
He says he was not found guilty OF
striking a woman, it having been stated
that he struck woman at the polls on
the day of election. He farther says
that he with many others was charged
with hindering voters on election day
and they agreed with the states attorney
and the attorney FOR the civic federation
in open court to plead guilty, as in that
case only a fine would be imposed. The
reason for thus doing, he says, was that
they wanted to get employment and did
mot want the criminal charges hanging
over them. McNulty says he was denied
q Jury trial by a partisan judge. He
had. he continues, no pull with the
Democratic politicians, and that there
wan no necessity for raising funds Tor MS
family, and no funds were raised.
When the application for a new trial
WE made, an affidavit was presented
from another man showing that McNulty
hid not strike a woman, but that the afti-
Rut did SO when attempting to strike Nc
NuNy. When the latter pleaded guilty
to a conspiracy under the promise that
hs would only be fined the Judge declined
20 respect this agreement, because he
claimed the evidence showed that Nc
Nulty had struck a woman. AS he had
pleaded guilty he was not allowed to offer
any rebutting testimony, but when the
motion was made for a new trial the aff1-
daylt generating McNulty from striking
The woman was filed, but the motion was
denied and he was sent to the peniten-

This is the loyalty our members pear

rebels. AS to our relations with England,
we have no apologies to make, no ex-
cuse to offer.
Should it be possible to embrotl her
with any power OH earth, we shall not
hesitate to do so. The chief object of the
Irish National Alliance is to create the
opportunity which will enable us to drive

driven from the United States. England's
cruelty, oppression and usurpation OF the
rights of Americans citizens fastened her

TIE AUDUBON REPUBLICAN,.
BY J. E. GRIFFITH.
THE PRESIDENTS MESSAGE.

On the inside pages of this issue
THE REPUBLICAN presents the presi-
dents message in full. The document
takes ten columns of solid type. the
larger portion which is devoted to the
history OF financial legislation and
goes back to war times On the finan-
cial question it advises the retirement
of the greenbacks, to do which would
require the issuing of nearly 100000,
600 worth of bonds. The vigorous
foreign policy has not much place in
this message and the Monroe doctrine
is only vaguely limited at. This third
annual message of President Cleve-
land will not rank among great state
papers. 1t is not, indeed, up to his
own best standard and it will exert lit,
tie influence upon public opinion. 1t
conveys the impression of the perfume
tory work Of Il man who did not like
the task, not because there is lack OF
quantity, but for the reason that the
quality is not Of II very high order
Certainly those friends of Mr.. Cleve,
land who think he ought to be momina,
ted next year IT'S the only available
democrat in the country will find little
in the message to inspire their interes
or enthusiasm in his behalf.
