Farewell Address.
Your Uncle Samuel has suffered more
anxiety, more trouble. more misery and
more bloodshed from the INSCRIPTIONS
conduct of Great Britain than from the
acts of all other nations combined
There is not a single instance in the
history of our existence where Britain
entered our sphere of politics, except to
bring discord.
Bereft of European support, she is using
all her wits to bring about an alliance
an alliance which she proposes to use in
furtherance of the great game of bluff
which she has practiced upon other ma
tons for the last eighty years 1t would
require too much space to closely follow
all the petty schemes she has resorted to
to attain this end.
To further her ambition Britain would
sacrifice US. Through her persistence,
few petty politicians of this country
freshly created satellites of a feeble adj
ministration-stand hypnotized and gaze
with thievish eyes toward the Philippines
the Philippines, with their verdure,
their native wealth-and to US death. dis
ease blood and continued warfare.
The scheme of Great Britain is appar-
ent even to the most stupid Seeing that
the people are averse to an alliance with
any nation, she is using every energy to
make an alliance seem necessity. She is
assisted in this by a new and mongrel
| breed-a new generation who now find
fault with the policy of the last hundred
years that has made US great and strong
They would fling away. the policy of
America and become as Great Britain-a
colonial empire They even point to Brit
ish colonies and say we will grow as
Britain does.
With her we will be a twin harbinger
of the Notwithstanding together as
princes of peace.
Great Britain, with eight hundred years
of bloody misrule in Ireland to her ac-
count; India, where over two hundred
millions of people are exploited and
| farmed, and famineis of yearly occurrence,
made possible through her greed. And
now red handed from the Nile, where she
had not the least shadow of right. At
Omdurman 1900 British and Egyptian SOL
ders armed with rapid fire guns and the
most improved military equipments, met
5000 half clad natives armed with spears
and swords. Eight thousand natives were
left on the field. the wounded were hacked

Britain for a model. This means the
Philippines and with it the slaughter of
its miserable inhabitants What beau
tiful sight in the eyes of heaven, these
upholders of the rainbow of peace, with
their slaughtering swords
~
We were once a British colony. British
tenderness to US is written on monu-
ments, on blood stained fields that extend
from Maine to Florida. And later other
monuments sprang from the bloody
ground of Lundys Lane and New Or
leans
Before the alliance can be brought to a
successful issue several things are neces-
sary. The societies known as the Sons
and Daughters of the Revolution must be
disbanded and the memories of their an
cestors forgotten.
Our citizens of Irish and German de-
scent must be banished from the country.
We must burn the Declaration of indie
pendence and prohibit its yearly public
reading.
We must destroy all the school histories
now existing in the United States, and
prevent any further study of history in
this country.
We must take from the archives in the
State department the record of Britain's
treachery during our late war and con-
sign them to the flames. We must ex-
punge Cleveland's Venezuelan message
from the records.
After accomplishing this it will be fur
Their necessary to surrender all our fishing
rights to Canada and relinquish all our
authority over the seal industry in the
Behring Sea. Then. after the emascula-
ton, we can join hands with John Bull.
Why should we do all this? We are ex-
pected to do this because of identity of
interest" and because blood is thicker
than water"
