He proposed to show. he said that the
Democratic party was always the party OF
obstruction and never of construction He
thought Mr.. Mccall should not be unduly
disturbed. as the country would still live
and individual liberty be preserved even II
the amendment were adopted.
The objection of the Democrats to the
amendment he divided into two parts, that
it contained unconstitutional matter and
that it invaded the "hoary- headed doctrine
OF State rights" The Democrats were la
boring under a little temporary political
biliousness on this subject.
Mr.. Littlefield criticised the amendments
to his bill proposed by the Democrats. He
spoke of the proposed section 9 which re-
lerred to the transportation of goods to
a State. Territory. foreign country or
place" the latter being some territory
which apparently could not be otherwise
defined. Because there was possibility
that the Supreme Court might disagree
with him regarding the extension of the
Constitution over the Philippines and
Porto Rico, he was willing to have the
amendment provide that it apply to all
territory outside the United States but un-
der its sovereignty. There could be no
amendment granting concurrent jurisdic-
tion over trusts to the States and Con-
gress, for one might wish to crush a trust
and the other not, and the whole would
fail to the ground. He quoted Mr.. Bryan's
plan of licensing corporations doing an
interstate business. He thought Mr..
Bryan's suggestion that Congress should
have the power to crush all trusts was
cared for in this amendment.
Mr.. Littlefield thought the axe would be
applied by the passage of the anti trust
amendment. He charged that the Dem
ocrats in Congress were always opposed
to antitrust legislation. He closed with
the prediction that the Republican party
would be triumphant in the next cam
paisn. The Republicans cheered and
cheered as he concluded, the confusion be-
ing such that business could not be pro-
ceeded with. Many of the Republicans
rose to their feet and waved their arms,
while they cheered him to the echo. 1t
was the most remarkable demonstration
on the floor of the House this session.
The vote was taken and the House at

litor OF the Irish Standard:

Editor OF the Irish Standards:
Maybe you will allow me to submit to
the delegates to the coming convention
of the women Catholic Foresters in Chi
cago, that l believe they will be doing
a good thing for the order il they sup
port as candidate for the office of their
attorney Mr.. Daniel V. Gallery. He is
a young man, far beyond the average in
general attainments, professional abili-
ties, and personal moral worth. He
was pupil Of the Jesuit Fathers. Col
lege, where he graduated with distinc-
ton. Then he studied law in the Chi
cago Law School, and was first there
in class of 900. He was for FIVE years
associated in law practice with the we'll
known Judge Thos. A. Moran, and then
set up for himself. He has always taken
a lively interest in Catholic affairs. as is
indicated by his having organized the
Shcrwin Council OF the Young Mems
Catholic Institute, OF which was
chosen first president, and by his having
been sent as delegate to the Baltimore
Catholic congress. Two years ago he
won from many rivals the hand Of his
former schoolmate, the only daughter Of
William ]. Onallan, Americas premier
Catholic laynan."

shackled, driven to death and insanity by
their infamous system of prison rigor
and SO lately released that the remain
der have scarcely yet shaken off their
worn limbs the dust of the dungeon
Let us ask, sir, what were those Ameri-
can ministers and consuls doing in Eng
land while their fellow citizens were
broken and tortured during sixteen
years within stones throw of their con-
sulates and embassies? And be it known
to their everlasting shame and dishonor
they never came to see or inquire about
them. How different is their conduct
towards English prisoners, who are far
better treated by the Beers than we
were by the English. Money, food, and
letters are transmitted to the English
prisoners, while in direct contrast to
this treatment, did the English act to-
wards American citizens, in English
prisons. The first year was in prison
| wrote two letters to Minister Lowell
in London, and though hitherto there
was no rule in prison against writing to
the minister representing any country,
to which prisoner may belong, yet as
soon as l wrote to the American minis
ter an order was issued that henceforth
no prisoner was permitted to address
any minister except her majesty's home
secretary.
1t is evident this trust-coalition is
aimed specially to counterfeit Irish in
fiuence Ill this country, and bring it I'M

cided by lis is, what action are the Irish
taking, or do they intend to take, if
American politicians should betray the
people of this country, by forming an
alliance with England, and in case Of
war combine with her against other
powers? AS whoever fights against
England are our friends and allies, who
will aid and assist the Irish to drive the
English garrison on! II Ireland we
must be prepared TO take the field, even
in this country, il America should insist
to fight on the side of England. Let
there be no dissension on this point
for in the event of England gaining the
ascendant, the consequences to the Irish
race in this country would entail greater
hardships than know-nothingsm tried
