the Stuart-Modcna dynasty by Queen
Mary of Bavaria, gives a candidate for
Il throne at which Americans NAV
PROSTATE themselves.
These royalists further contend that
without royalty for motive the kings
OF France and Spain would not have
assisted in establishing the independ-
ence of the United States. 1t was
their eXpt citation that Stuart would
sit on Il throne ~ Emperor Of the Con-
federation of North America. The
Order of Cincinnatus, established at
the court Of France with the king as
grand master, was extended to Amer
ice and George Washington appointed
President General in this country for
the purpose of setting up military
aristocracy among the officers OF the
American army and their allies in
France, Spain and other friendly ma
tions.
The king OF France went further
and actually created the title of Mar
quis dAlainville in 1884 in the State
of New York and bestowed it upon
Michel de Lothiniere for diplomatic
services.
The un-Americanism OF the royalists
on this side OF the Atlantic is shown
by this recent assertion by one Of
their leaders:
at is sad to observe, however, that
lack OF faith which animated the
principal leader of that time, Wash
ington, at the demand of the Republic
can demagogue who now had a major
ity in Congress, was ordered at An
napOlis to surrender his command of
the army. In vain General Miflin, in
the name OF the officers, implored him
not to abandon them and leave them
to the malicious vengeance OF the Re-
publicans in Congress. But Wash
ington had his eye on the Presidency,
offered him in exchange, forsook his
comrades in arms and broke his faith
with the kings OF France and Spain
and the old colonial families who had
supported the cause for a royal ISSUE"
The Continental congress took rad
ical measures to stamp out the royalist
tendencies, and succeeded in part, but
Colonel John Connolly, then living in
Detroit, in 1855 organized the re-
manning sympathizers with the house
of Stuart into the Order of the Yellow
Rose OF the Empire of America, with
the purpose of founding in Louisiana
the empire which they bad fondly
hoped would extend over all America.
The Aryan Order publishes an off,
cial magazine in Boston. This maya
zine ranks George Washington as a
traitor and our present national ale
glance as mere sentiment based on
fraudulent principles. Its subscribers
are found principally along the At
lantic coast, but a flourishing client
age exists in Cincinnati.
At the approaching celebration the
royalists will issue the following call /:
To all the colonial societies, the an
cient American organizations, and the
British, German, Italian and Austrian
societies in the United States: Let us
unite on n programme OF royalist
party under candidacy of the Bavariar
Prince Rupert, SO that the country
may be free from party turmoils and
the people be protected by an estab-
lished, independent and all-represent-
ing monarchy, so that they may enjoy
their individual rights and the fruit OF
their labors in peace and tranquility ::
so that they may have an honest gov
ernment, with q princely family OF
when they may not be ashamed at the
head OF this mighty confederation of
States"
How many new centuries will be
ushered in before the dreams Of these
royalists are realized?
