The Anglicized Irish-American news
paper that tries TO fiatter Irishmen by
boasting Of their courage and fighting
ability, yet appeals to hypocrisy and
cowardice in the effort to divert their
natural sympathies from the Beers, is
offering an insult to Irishmen and
women everywhere. If they fight Brit
aims battles it is not through fear. If
they ever change their minds about the
Beers It viii not be because some An
gl0maniac las scared them about what
England may or may not do.

INSANE GENERALS IN WAR.

Utterly exasperated with their COM
maHders in South Africa. and heartily
tired Of excusing their repeated fall
ures. the English press is calling for
their removal, and the British war de-
partment is making arrangements to
relieve them Of their commands.
No strategic blunder of sufficient
magnitude TO disgrace a general has
been made, no charge Of eowardice or
treachery is tenable. and so a rather
novel procedure in military circles has
been introduced for the purpose of en-
abling the war department to satisfy
the popular clamor
1t is alleged that the English COM
manders. or most of them, are insane,
that chose who know the circum-
stances and are willing to state the facts
plaintly. say that Methuen's mind
is unbalanced; that General Yule is in
mental collapse, caused by his attempt
to follow and try to save the troops in
| Natal; that General Frencf's mind
was evidently wandering when he re-
ported a victory where he had lost a
battle; that General Buffers health
renders further activity out of the
question; and that nothing can be done
until Roberts and Kitchener reach the
stage of action.
This is a sad story. If true. But the
inclusion of 50 many brilliant COM
manders in the list Of mentally wrecked
tends to put the matter in the light of
the insanity dodge" pleaded in the
courts
If the war Office at London were dis
posed to admit the truth. the public
might learn that the advance of the
English has been checked. not through
any fault Of the officers so much as be
cause of the incompetency of the heads
of the war Office in London and the
desperate resistance of the Beers, who
are fighting to repeI invaders.
If, however. these officers are actually
insane. the case is Pitiable and they
should be returned at once TO London.
