abuse their hospitality by taking the
opportunity to incIte prejudice against
their adopted country, and to discuss
matters entirely Irrelevant to the OBJ
servance Of st. Patrlcks Day. Nor did
they suppose he would so grossly falsl-
~ the attitude of this country.
Aside from this feature, Mr.. Bacon
expressed sentiments dlscreditable to
himself. us an American citizen and
statesman, because they were not true
Hewas evidently trying to make use OF
the occasion to make some politics. II
he thought he was gaining votes In such
an audience by abusing England, and
incldently rejecting on the honor OF the
United States. he mistook the character
OF 1rish-American patriotism. 1t Is
well known by all who observed the de-
tails OF the war that American citizens
OF Irish birth and descent knew and ap-
preciated England's friendlIness to, the
United States, and the fact that Thou
sands OF them went to the front on the
call for troops In the war with Spain,
testified that they believed the friend
ship Of the British government was as
much for their benefit as for other
Americans.
The people Of ireland have always re-
garded this country as their friend and
sympathizer and they have had no cause
to believe otherwise. They will hardly
endorse, In the face OF this fact, such
rank demagogy as that INDUCED in by
Senator Bacon, for they can see In the
CLOSE relations Of the government Of the
country that has been refuge for them
and the British government possible
condition which might enable the great
republic to do Ireland greater service
than It has done In the past.
Commenting on Mr.. Bacon's reference
to the United States governments effort
to bring order out of chaos in the Phil
ippines, as an attempt to Overthrow
the only republican government that
has ever been organized on the conti-
nent of Asia" the Washington Star re-
marks. truthfully. that "the republican
government in Asia now being assalled
by this country is Pigment Of vivid
cracker imagination"
Nothing could better describe 1t.
There is no republican form of govern
ment In the Philippines. There is no civil
government at all, nothing but the mill
tary control by the United States. The
valor of American soldiers placed the
flag there and 1t will not be hauled down
by Mr.. Bacon. With the peace that is
dawning the flag Of freedom and Of
real government, based upon human
principles and not representing saw
age ambitious adventurer who calls
himself the government, will continue
to wave, unless the United States itself
provides for another which represents
the same principles.

outrages when perpetratcd by white
people in the north" II 1t can, let 1t be
honorable enough to do so. That Is not

the beginning OF its history 10 the pres

disgrace to the community in which 1t

or color OF the victims. The Intelligent
Ger has never failed to, comment on
these events on the line that the law

accountable to public opinion whether
It is a southern. northern eastern or
western state. II more such occur
