zens? think it is time No one has a
right to intrude upon the reading public
his ignorant balderdash about ANGLO
Saxons," when he cannot even name
and prove single characteristic of the
alleged Anglo-Saxons, or describe, eth
nologically or physiologically, the men
tai traits which distinguished the Angles
and SaXons of England from the Britons
and Celts of England. If he can do this,
what is the actual result? Simply this:
that the Angles and the Saxons are still
a comparatively insignificant element in
the makeup Of the English people, and
Infinitely more insignificant in the
makeup of the American people The
language we have is undoubtedly Ger
manic tongue-a brave language, but it's
own mother would not know it today
Like the Angles and SaXons themselves,
it has been developed and refined by the
ennobling and civilizng influences Of
Celtic, Greek and Roman letters and lit
erature, and the Mediterranean arts, sci
ences and institutions of the so-called
Latin race.
II predominancc Of race Is anything to
be proud Of, as a factor in the develop
ment of our institutions and national
progress, certainly the so-called Anglo
Saxon element cannot for a moment be
considered as other than a very small
fraction OF that fuctor; and just as GER
tainly the dark-haircd race--"Ccltic," or
whatever else you may call it-must be
awarded the honor and glory of making
America what it is today-and of max
Ing the English speaking peoples"
throughout the world what they are to-
day. Let us hear no more of this blatant
Anslo-SaXon fulsomcness. | venture to
say that II. L. c." is himself of the
dark haired type which he would bcliltle
and heaven knows We have enough,
and more than enough, of his class, in
that type, without trying to saddle any
more of them upon the real Anglo
Saxon element in our makeup.
Let me assure "E. l.. G." that none of
the Irish" in this country who are not
yet AmericaniZcd" tand that class of I'M
migrants becomes more quickly Amcri-
caniZcd than the so-callch Anglo Saxon
immigrants) are giving themselves much
concern over the so-calcd English
American rapprochement. They know,
as We all know, that there is nothing In
it; that our dearly beloved English col-
Sins would like to have our backing in
something more than sentimental ndul-
gcncc in fine phrases. which would mean
nothing If it came to a question of i'm
ports or exports or financial interests
We know that these sentimental inter
changes have become as nauscatiug to
the mass of sclf-rrspccting Englishmcn
as they are to the mass of sclf-lrspcrting
Americans. And, by the Way, why can
not this Anglomuniac get some Anglo
Saxon word to express his idea of the
supposed coming together of the two
peoples. instead of having to borrow one
from the French or Latin?

FATHER KOBERL DEAD.
Priest of the Sacred Heart Parish
Dies mt New Tim.

Dies mt New Tim.
Father Charles Koberl, pastor of the
Sacred Heart Church, Sixth and Arcade
streets, st. Paul, died last Monday even
ing at St. Alexius' Hospital New Ulm
The announcement of the priests death
was shock to his friends and parish
toner's, few of whom had any knowledge
that he was seriously i'll. Death was the
result of complication OF ailments.
few months ago his health began to
show signs of breaking down, the prin-
clpal symptoms being an extreme ner-
vousness. Later he went to New Ulm,
and entered the hospital there, where he
remained up to his death.
Father Koberl was born in Syria,
Austria, Aug. %, 1915. He studied at
Gratz, where he took course in philos-
ophy, science and theology. While yet
young man he came to ST. Paul, and
was ordained a priest at the cathedral
by Bishop Grace. He was stationed at
Caledonia, Avoca, and other places in
Southern Minnesota, and did consider
able missionary work.
Ten years ago he was appointed pastor
of the Sacred Heart parish, on Dayton s
bluff, in st. Paul, where he labored with
great zeal and devotion. He built a
fine church, erected schools, and made
many improvements.
Father koberl was modest man, pos
sessed of a sincere and ardent piety. He
was unsparing in his energies, and labor
ed increasingly for the upbuilding of the
church and the spread Of religion. His
influence was always for good, and his
charities widespread and transformations.
Some years ago, when the colonists
from Connemara settled on the Missis-
sippi flats, Father Koberl WAS a:sidious
in his attentions to them and cared for
them with the same devotedness as if
they were his own countrymen. He
was loved and esteemed by his corelig-
ionists of every nationality. The re-
mains were conveyed from New Ulm to
st. Paul, and the funeral took place last
Thursday morning at 10 O'Clock, from
Sacred Heart Church, which was filled
to overlooking by his parishioners, who
loved him in life and mourned him in
death. The long cortege that followed
the hearse to Calvary Cemetery, testi-
fed to the high regard in which the good
and faithful priest was held in the COM
munity.

GEN. THOMAS F. MEAGHER.
His Famous Speech on the Sword in
Cancellation Hall.

His Famous Speech on the Sword in
Cancellation Hall.
The following patriotic speech on the
sword was delivered in 1886 by Gen. I.
F. Meagher, when he was only 90 years
old. Waving his hand majestically, he
said:
Opinion will operate against opinion,
but as the honorable member for Kill
kenny (John O'ConnelD, has observed,
force must be used against force The
soldier is proof against an argument
but he is not proof against bullet. The
man that will listen to reason-let him
be reasoned with. But it is the weaponed
arm of the patriot that can alone prevail
against battalioned despotism.
Then, my lord, DO not condemn the
use of arms as immoral, nor do I con-
ceive it preferable to say that the King
OF Kings, the Lord of Hosts, the God Of
Battles, beloved not His benediction up
on those who unsheathe the sword in the
hour of nations peril.
From that evening. on which, in the
valley of Bethula, He neryed the arm If
the Jewish girl to smite the drunken
tyrant in his tent, down to this our day,
in which He blessed the insurgent chiv-
airy of the Belgian priest, His almighty
hand hath ever ben stretched forth from
His throne of light, to consecrate the
flag of freedom, to bless the patriots
sword.
BE it in the defense, or be it in the as
scrtion Of peoples liberty, hail the
sword as Il sacred weapon; and il. my
lord, it has taken the shape of a serpent
and redeemed the shroud of the oppress-
or with too deep a dye, like the anointed
rod of the high priest, it has at other
times often blossomed with celestial
flowers to deck the freemans brow.
Abhor the sword, stgmatize the
sword! No, my lord. for in the passes
OF the Tyrol it cut to pieces the banner
Of the Bavurian and through those
dragged passes struck IL path to fame for
the peasant insurrectionist of lnnspruck.
Abhor the sword. stgmatizc the sword!
No, my lord, for at it's blow a giant ma
ton started from the waters OF the At
lantic, and by its rcdceming magic, and
in the answering of its crimson light,
the CRIPPLED colony sprang into the atti-
tude of II proud republic, prosperous.
limitlcss and invincible! Abhor the
sword, stigmatize the sword. No. my
lord, for it swept the Dutch marauders
out OF the fine old towns of Belgium,
scourgcd them back to their own phcg-
matte swamps, and Knocked their flag
and sccpter, their laws and bayoncls into
the sluggish waters of the Schedt.
My lord, learned it was the right OF
Il nation to govern herself, not in this
hall, but upon the ramparts of Antwerp.
This, he first article of Il nations
creed, ! learned from those rainparts
where freedom was justly estimated,
and her precious gift was purchased by
the ciiusiUn of generous blood. My
lord, know the l'elgans, admire the
l}elgians. love the bclgians for their
enthusiasm. their courage, their success;
and |, for one. will not stigmutizc, for
do not abhor. the means by which they
