Mckinley and George III.

Webster defines imperialism as "the
power, authority or character OF an en-
pcror; the spirit OF empire" Is Mckin-
lcyism synonymous with Imperialism
asks the Livington (Mont.) Enterprise.
If the power, authority or character of
his administration is similar to that Of
some admitted case OF Imperialism fur
nishcd by history, the charge Of imperi-
a:ism is then proved. Take the case OF
Porto Rico. 1t is conquered province
and does McKinley's authority there as
sumo the character of Imperialism
What are McKinlcy's powers in this
province? Compare the rights OF the
Porto Ricans with those OF Mckinley in
the conduct and affairs of their own

| beg your pardon for venturing thus
TIC appeal to your charity and Kindness
but stranger though am would not
dare to do so if l did not feel that my
appeal would touch kind and friendly
heart. [ am poor missionary in the
Saskatchewan district, very poor part
OF the country, very cold, and unpro-
vided with help. We have here an
HURDLE orphanage which shelters the
poor unfortunate children of this coun-
Try, SO far removed from human aid,
and who would otherwise perish in soul
AID body. need scarcely tell you, dear
Sir, OF the poverty of my little flock,
who come to us half naked and starving.
Cul wooden house is small and uncom-
Portable, and having no furniture for
this new institution Of charity, my little
ones sleep on the floor with slleepskin
for bed, l myself in their midst Scro-
fula and consumption are the two great
evils, which are fought against without
much success; but where are we to OBJ
tain the necessary relief, when we our-
selves are almost as poor? Good food
and warm clothing we have not, and
often death comes before help can be
given. Depending entirely on the kind
providence of God for help, our dis
tress is very great, and we often want
the sunshine OF human charity to keep
body and soul together.
You therefore understand, dear sir,
how grateful 1 am for every assistance,
and assuring you of the prayers Of
Christs little ones, and wishing you
every blessing for your prosperity, am
yours devotcdly and sincerely in Christ,

THE CLERGY OF IRELAND.
Described In "My Citrate" by Father
Sheehan.

| have been now in touch with three
generations of Irish priests, each as dis
tinct from the other, and marked by as
distinctive characteristics as those
which differcntiatc an Anglican parson
from medieval monk. My early edu-
cation was colored by contact with the
polished studious, timid priests, who,
educated in continental seminaries in
PRODUCED into ireland all the grace and
dignity and holiness and all the dread
OF secular authority with the slight ten
dency to compromise that seemed to
have marked the French clergy at least
in the wars Immediately succeeding the
revolutions and the Napoleonic wars.
These were the good men who frater-
nzc'l with landlords and lent their con-
grcgations to a neighboring parson on
the occasion OF some governmental visi-
tation; who were slightly tinged with
Gallican ideas and hated progress and
the troubles which accompanied it.
They were good, holy. kindly men, but
they could hardly be called officers OF
the church militant. Then came May
ncotll, which, founded on governmental
subsidies, poured from its gates the
strongest, ficrccst, most fearless army
OF priests that ever fought for the spir-
itual and temporal interests OF the peo-
plc-mcn Of large physique and iron
constitution, who spent ten hours a day
on horseback, despiscd French carct,
loved their people and chastised them
like fathers, but were prepared to defend
them with their lives and the outpour-
ing OF their blood against their heredi-
tary enemies. Intense in their faith, OF
stainless lives and spotless reputation,
their words cut like razors and their
hands smote like lightning, but they had
the hearts of mothers for the little ones
of their flock. They had the classics at

And kissed her thoughtless babes with

While her fond husband strove to len:

In all the silent manliness OF grief
Oh, luxury, thou curst by heavens de

How ill exchanged are things like tllese

How do thy potions, with insidiou:

Diffuse their pleasures only to destroy
Kingdoms by thee, to sickly greatness
grown,
Boast Of ford vigor not their own.
At every draft more large and largs

A bloated mass OF rank unwieldy woe

PUBLIC PULSATIONS.
Editor OF the Irish Standard:

Editor OF the Irish Standards:
The address to Queen Victoria by
William O'Brien in the Dublin Irish
People and the editorial entitled
Information for Victoria" are
enough to stir to indignation a stone
image. 1t seems incredible that $780,
600 people have died OF famine in Ire
land during the reign OF the present
monarch. A fertile island right under
the wing OF the seat of empire, so mis-
governed, robbed, and tax-ridden that
100000 subjects should die OF hunger
during her reign is unparalleled in the
world, except it be by like condition
in England's East Indian colonies.
No wonder Irishmen come to Amer
lea. But what can we think of an Irish
man who actively affiliates with and
supports an administration in the United
States which points with approval to the
policy of Great Britain and advises the
United States to follow her example in
the subjugation and spoliation OF SUBJ
ject peoples? And yet there is occa-
sionally an intelligent Irishman guilty
OF this. How do you explain it? Such
Irishmen may be able to frankly say,
God save the queen" but if the Eng
lish policy is adopted by the United
States, l say, God save the people /"
The queen and her imitators in the
United States can take care OF them
selves.
The Irish Standard does valuable
service in bringing such matters to pub
lie attention during such times as these.
Very truly yours,
A. B. CHOATE.

QUESTION ANSWERED.

Yes, August Flower has the
largest sale of any medicine in the
civilized world. Your mothers
and grandmothers never thought
of using any thing else for indi-
gestion or biliousness. Doctors
were scarce and they seldom
heard of Appendicitis, Nervous
Prostration or Heart failure, etc.
They used August Flower to clean
out the system and stop fermenta-
ton of undigested food, regulate
the action of the liver, stimulate
the nervous and organic action of
the system, and that is all they
took when feeling bad and dull
with headaches and other aches
You only need few doses of
Green's August Flower, in Eq-
uid form, to make you satisfied
there is nothing serious the matter
with you. For sale by w. j. Dan
