tooth cut away part OF its nose. From
its upper jaw had grown g tooth about
the same length that had made circle
and penetrated the roof OF it's mouth.

since then every dollar has been as gooo

such agreement csn be obtained, the
existing gold standard must be pre-

designed TO maintain inviolably the
obligations of the United States, and all
our money, whether coin or paper, at
the present standard, the stand ard of
the most enlightened nations OF the

The repub llcan party is mindful Of

Such are the principles and policies of
the republican party. By these prin-

them the considerate judgment OF the

'RAH FOR CANADA.

Here we in the United States have all
along been hugging ourselves, with the
fond delusion that II our sister, Canada,
did not behave herself and act at all
times in becoming manner. we would
quietly walk across the border, take her
in hand and not only admonish her, but
compel her to come into our household,
there to remain and never again be al
lowed to play in England's back yard.
But it seems we were oVer-confident.
This week member of the Canadian
parliament introduced a resolution into
the house of commons declaring in effect
that in case Of war between the United
States and England that Canada would
be found hanging on to the apron strings
Of the old woman at 'ome, and in order
that the fastenings might be made more
secure any sacrifice would be made on
the part of the offspring. The dutiful
child
The gentleman who introduced the
resolution said it. was for the purpose Of
letting the people over here know exactly
where Canada would stand in the event
Of war. He said it was annoying to
the Canucks to think Of them as desert
ing the Union Jack for the, Stars and
Stripes And further, that if the A1neri-
cans did not let Canada work out her
own destiny that when the time comes
the Canucks would make it clear to the
world that they would defend their
birthright.
The gentlemen did not explain what
that birthright was, and perhaps if he
had been asked it would have puzzled
him to answer.
In discussing the resolution, one gem
tleman said that as Canada is placed her
future is clear. She will have to remain
a hostage to the United States for Eng
lands good behavior, or else join the
United States. Which would be the most
honorable or the best course to pursue, he
left for the Canadians to decide I
But with all this outward show of
fight and this exhibition of Unborn Brit
ish buster, the gentleman who intro
duced the resolution betrayed his coun-
try's weakness when he spoke of the
Americans not allowing Canada to work
out her own destiny. There is no doubt
The resolution was introduced and OF
course finally adopted for the purpose of
drawing attention to the fact that Cam
Ida is still there. The United States was
ignoring her in this little unpleasantness
with the mother country and the Ca
1ucks wanted to fill a bigger place in the
public eye.

THE IRISH CAUSE.

From the enthusiasm displayed at the
new movement meeting last Sunday
evening in this city, an account of which
will be found elsewhere, it is an assur-
ance that instead of the members ex-
hibiting any signs of Indifference, they
are on the contrary increasing in ear
nestness. 1t was an evidence that the
cold water now being thrown upon their
actions has not had the effect intended,
but on the contrary has acted as spur
towards greater intensity and quichened
activity. As the movement was begun in
the proper spirit, backed by an unf1ag-
ging determination, no criticisms, no an
imosities, no jealousfes can In any way
Interfere with it's progress. Those who
are not with it are against it. There
San be no middle ground Happily the
opponents of the movement are few, but
these few are endea voring to make up in
bitterness and vindictiveness what they
lack in strength and numbers. 2.

Some of those who oppose it say they
have no axes to grind, nor have they
Interior motives, but are acting In a pa
triotic spirit. How can the spirit at pa
triotism be invoked when they offer re-
sistance to a movement that cannot but
be beneficial to 1reland's interests
These meetings Of men, for the purpose
of discussing what is best certainly
tends towards good, even should they
fail of realization. They are devoid of
politics. There is no mercenary motive
connected with them, nor can there be.
There is no exchequer for any one to raid;
there are no offices to be 'parcelled out;
there are no gifts of any kind to be dis
tributed, either of a political or tinan-
cfal nature. Why then oppose a move
ment that is so disinterested except in
the interests of Ireland2 5,
It. matters not The movement will
live. Should it never accomplish more
than an Organization, widespread
throughout the land, it will have per-
formed a good work. 1t will set men
thinking. To think is to act; to act to
accomplishment now, perhaps, but some
time in the future. But what dc, Its OPP
ponents expect to accomplish? Sowing
dissension, engendering tll-feeIing. ques-
tioning motives and Withholding support
are surely not factors conducive to Ire
lands welfare. A great upheaval is not
expected at present, but the smallest
efforts should certainly be welcomed and
happily they are being welcomed. The
new movement is already bearing good
fruit. That is enough.
