tyrannic power and vast accumulations

Give went to India, to develop civ
ilization similar to that OF the enlight-
ened people OF Europe. Slaughter and
aggrandizement marked every step Of
his way, and he stole an empire from a
people who had worshiped God when
the Briton was painted savage. Hast
ings followed Give, and he inaugurated
a system of robbery, cruelty and ferocity
which has no parallel in the evil doings
OF men.
Today Great Britain is getting ready
to take their country from the Beers,
and the United States in the name OF
liberty and humanity" is sending
troops to the Philippines to seize the
islands for the sole benefit OF avaricious
corporations who place money above
the man and disregard the principles
upon which this republic is founded.
The acquisition of the islands now gov
erned by Otis at the dictation OF Presi-
dent Mckinley will bring nothing but
disaster in the end to the republic Of
Washington. We hope and trust, for
the sake OF this country more than for
the sake of the Filipinos, that the free
and untrammeled voters OF the land will
compel the Republican party to aban-
don its piratical policy OF colonization.

English allies burst over the southern

queror, the victim of his own passion

always admired Napoleon as warrior,
but his crimes against human liberty
brought upon him rightful doom. So,

The Republican press and politicians
of the Twin Cities are trying to make
the public believe that it will require
considerable solicitation to get Presi-
dent Mckinley to come to the North
west in October to review the Mime
sofa troops on their return from the
Philippines. We have special wire
from Washington, which escaped the
censor, to the effect that the ally of the
Sultan of Sulu is aching for a chance to
repeat his Pittsburg speech on the flag
to the volunteers OF the North Star
State, and that he will be on hand with
out fail. He does not care about par
tlclpating in the Dewey reception, for
he would cut sorry figure in COMPETE
ton with the hero of Manila, but he is
mighty anxious to be the cynosure of
wondering eyes in Minnesota when
Johnny comes marching home" and
hopes he will be the principal attrac-
ton. He is painfully aware OF the fact
that Minnesota will be doubtful state
next year, and that is why the Repub-
licans want him so badly.

JoHN,BIANcHARD IS NO MORE.

In the death of John Blanchard, CHIEF
editor OF the Minneapolis Times, the
Northwest has lost one of its foremost
journalists. He came to this city about
ten years ago and up to last March had
continuously written the leading articles
for the paper with which he was identi-
fed. Being a ready and facile writer
he turned out Copy" at rapid rate
and made the Times one OF the most
attractive newspapers in the country. 1t
will be difficult for our contemporary
to fill the position made vacant by his
death. His editorial utterances were
piquant, forcible and up-to-date on
every topic OF public interest.
He was aggressive and caustic with
his pen, and in tilt with his contempt
raries displayed controversial ability Of
a high order. The Irish Standard bears
willing testimony to that fact. A year
ago discussion on the Anglo-Ameri-
can alliance took place between this
journal and Mr.. Blanchard which
attracted some attention at the time.
He attacked The Irish Standard quite
fiercely and applied some offensive cpl
thets to its patrons which nearly
brought on boycott of the Times
James Gray was candidate for mayor
and The Irish Standard found it neces-
sary to announce editorially that he was
not responsible for the insulting allu-
sions appearing in the paper of which
he was city editor. The Irish Standard
also dissuaded its indignant patrons
from disseminating their support of the
Times, and to save its contemporary
from harm, it specifically referred to
the editor-in-chief as the "Hawkeye
man" and addressed its philippics ex-
clusively to him. 1t was sorry when ii
learned afterwards that Mr.. Blanchard
was in poor health at the time. Though
differing from the views of the departed
editor on almost every subject he
touched on during his journalistic ca
reer in this city, The Irish Standard at
all times entertained the kindliest feel
ings towards him, and in common with
the press of the Twin Cities feels poign-
ant regret that one so gifted as was
Mr.. Blanchard is forever lost to the
newspaper profession, of which he stood
at the head in this city. Now, that he
is no more every one has kind word
to say of him. He was a good citizen
and an upright man in all the relations
of life, and we hope that the Great Be-
ing who endowed him with such bril-
liant gifts of mentality will deal lenient-
ly with the immortal part of him in
that country from whose bourne no
traveller returns. May the sod rest
lightly over him and may his soul rest
in peace.

A mass meeting of citizens was held
in St. Paul the other evening to ex-
press sympathy with Dreyfus and con-
denim the courtmartial that found him
guilty. Among the speakers were Hon.
D. w. Lawler and Hon. C. D. O'Brien,
both of whom made sensible addresses.
The Irish Standard is opposed to Amer
lean interference in the military affairs
OF France, and is inclined to believe that
the reports of the trial as received in
this country were one-sided. 1t must
be remembered that the Anglo-Amer-
lean press is unfriendly to France and
is largely controlled by the Jews. The
leading papers of London which advo-
cate wars and confscations are owned
and operated by Hebrews. They are
urging England to make war on the
Transvaal and are backing up McKin-
ley i'll his war on the Filipinos. They
all stood by Dreyfus and Influenced
public opinion in his favor. DR.. Ben
jamin Andrews, of Chicago, is right
when he says: French justice is the
best in the world. A man has better
chance of obtaining justice from French
courts than from the courts of any other
land. No people love justice more than
the French. The trouble with the Drey-
fus trial was that the press and the peo-
pie of this country had acquitted the
prisoner before he was tried"

Thomas ]. Gargan, leading lawyer
of Boston, was "sound money" man
in 'o6, but he has got his eyes opened
to the rascalities of the Republican
party. In recent letter he says: II
believe it the duty of all men believing
in the perpetuity of our republic to ally
themselves with the Democratic party.
The Republican party of today is con-
trolled by men who set money and
property above human life and liberty.
The legislation of the party controlling
the administration is fast creating per-
manent inequalities of wealth and condi-
tions which threaten to destroy our
democratic form OF government. I'm
perialism has nearly doubled our taxa
ton, and means, if continued, a vast
standing army, eating out the substance
of the people. The continuation of the
trusts means destruction Of the great
middle class, the sinew and backbone of
the nation. join hands with all who
are laboring against foreign alliance,
which means participation by us in the
quarrels of the European nations, and
will cooperate with all citizens striving
for the integrity of the United States of
America" There are many other gold
Democrats who entertain the same
views as Mr.. Gargan and who will be
patriotic enough to vote with the party
OF Jefferson and Jackson in the next
campaign.

Says the National Waterman: Presi-
dent Mckinley is seeking to create an
impression that he is simply following
the flag and defending it wherever it
goes. Will Mr.. Mckinley answer, who
sent General Bates with $4,000 that be-
longed to the United States treasury to
bride the Sultan of Sulu to permit the
flag to be hoisted over his harem and
his polygamous band of pirates, and
then entered into an agreement that the
sulan's local government should not be
interfered with; that the United States
would protect it against all foreign
powers?

A Spokane paper says: Remember
Galland- Burke's scab beer. Don't pat
ronize it. Drink Milwaukee beer; it is
far better and is strictly union" The
best thing for workingmen to do is to
drink no beer at all, either union or
scab, while fighting mining corpora
tons. The same paper contains the
following item: Altogether $50 men
have been lodged in the bull pen. OF
these $50 remain, seven have died or
been murdered, 10 have escaped, and
one, Paul Corcoran, was sent to states
prison for II years. In other words,
Geo men have been imprisoned without
any charge being lodged against them
and discharged in the same mysterious
manner Some have been in the prison
over 100 days and then released with
out recompense or any charges being
lodged against them" We contend that
men who are used in that way should
not use Milwaukee beer, even though
it is strictly union;" and we think the
Milwaukee Citizen will agree with us.

Judging from the glowing style in

The personal mention of Robert
James O'Reilly by the New World on
his departure for the Old World will
not be used by him in his travels to
gain admittance into the aristocratic
social circles" OF European capitals.
With all his "keen powers of observa-
ton, versatile talents and winning man
ners" he made big mistake in going
on his peregrinations before paying his
bills. The free advertisement he received
was certainly "piquant," and it may
prove profitable" to him when he reads
it and reflects on his delinquency.

assisted the Beers? His presence there
was not required by any American in
terests.
Can John Hay explain why it was that
representative and mouthpiece of the
administration, Cushman K. Davis OF
Minnesota, not only advocated an
Anglo-American alliance, but a triple
alliance OF the United States, England
and Japan, and that he declared that all
the land north Of the equator in the
eastern hemisphere OF right should be-
long to the English-speaking nations
We presume that the St. Paul lingo il
called upon to explain his speech at the
laying of the corner stone of the Min
nesota state capitol, would say like
John Hay that cit has never entered
into the mind of the president nor OF
any member OF the government to for
sake the wise precept Of the fathers
which forbade entangling alliances with
European powers" And yet he, as one oil
the Paris peace commissioners, not only
favored it here at home, but also on
board an Atlantic steamer and in inter-
views while in Europe.
John Hay and his Republican con-
freres are aware of the fact that citizens
OF other races than the Anglo-Saxon
have held meetings throughout this
country protesting against an Anglo
American alliance. They are holding
such meetings still. OF course the Re-
publicans care but little about the pro-
tests of Irish-Americans whom they
have never bamboozled with their So
phistries, but they are alarmed at the
German-Americans who belong to their
party and who are going to desert them
in the next campaign for abandoning the
principles of republicanism and adopt
ing the imperial methods Of England in
dealing with weak and struggling races

writing on the wall in Ohio and other
states, and that is why John Hay indites

He reiterated what he had previously

he considered them more capable of self

probably unaware OF the fact that Mac

whether or not the Filipinos are capable
OF governing themselves at all. They
want to govern them in the good old
