l regard the Irish-A American press as
the strongest bulwark against British
influence the world over. It is like
wise, with the press at home, the
main reliance Of the Irish national
cause, inasmuch as it represents and
fosters the hopes and aspirations of
our people. So long as the Irish Stand

expound and defend that cause ably
and resolutely, SO long will the Irish
race in this country hold firmly to the
political faith of Grattan, Curran and
Emmett, awaiting with firm confidence
the hour Of England's destruction and
the dawn Of that "morn whose angel
brightness" our patriot prophets fore
saw in days of old.

Occupies New Quarters.

Joseph NJ. Davis, wholesale dealer
in wines and liquors, has removed to
his new quarters and now occupies
the entire three story building at Jog
and 1OS First street N. Mr.. Davis has
been very successful in business since
coming to Minneapolis in 1888. He
commenced modestly and with small
capital, but with purpose of square
dealing with all his customers and fur
nishing only the best products to the
trade he adhered to this motto, with
the result that he has achieved sue
cess even beyond his expectations.
The new location is we'll stocked and
the Office furniture and fixtures are of
the latest design. The second floor of
the building is used for the bottling
department and on the top floor is
found John Curran, the rectifer, in
command. Mr.. Curran is the oldest in
experience Of any rectiier in the north
west. He manufactures the Alpha
peptomized herb bitters, recognized as
one of the best health preserving bit
tiers in use. The bitters We're not for
mulated in a day or year, but repre-
sent the study and experimenting of
46 years in bringing them to a state
of well nigh perfection. The friends
and customers of Mr.. Davis are cor
daily invited to call and inspect the
new quarters and sample the products
offered to the trade.

1rishmen for that matter, to compare
the bright prospects Of the Irish ma
tional cause at present with the gloom

hundred years ago. The patriots who

had persisted on the scaffold. Others
were in prison. More such as Adds
Emmett, McNevin, O'Brien and Samp-
son had found a warm welcome in this
country, which they henceforth re-
garded with affection as sincere as
that which they felt for their own
green isle. The prospects of French
Intervention, once so bright, had van
ished. Robert Emmett was planning
that heroic revolt, that illumed the
darkness of the era, but the Irish ma
ton, robbed of it's parliament. seemed
in a state of collapse and on the way
to speedy extinction. Her dreams of

Compared with that period of dis
astcr and despair how bright and TO-

powerful is the national movement at
the opening of the new century! At
home patriotic sentiment is strong and
self-rcliant. The people assert. proud
ly and defiantly, the principles pro-
claimed by O'Connell, Meagher. Nit

for over twenty-five years elected to
parliament uncompromising enemies
of British power They have forced
British premier to make home rule

Ireland was deprived of her parlia-

story of Ireland's history. They are
studying her ancient language and
they are as ready as in 1888 to raise
the immortal green flag when the
proper moment offers to strike ut the
oppreSSOr.
Abroad, the position of the Irish race
is one of the worlds wonders, as YOU
have so often pointed out in dealing
with the political questions of the day.
Our race has become inscparably
blended with the greatness and gram
dcur OF this mighty republic-thc most
powerful nation of the world. In Eng
land herself, in Scotland, Australia,
Mexico, Central and South America,
the Irish race has acquired a firm
foothold. thereby imparting strength
to it's aspirations and Irresistible force
to it's determination that Ireland shall
he free!

Why Buchanan Never Married.

''Mr. Buchanan, who was the first
bachelor elected to the presidency, was
sixty-five years of age when elected.
and had deliberately given himself to
a life of celibacy," writes William Per-
rine, in the May Ladies' Home Journal.
"In the days when he was n young
lawyer of Lancaster, Pa, he had loved
Miss Coleman, a beautiful daughter of
Il citizen of that town. They had been
engaged to be married when one day
he was surprised to receive from her
n request to release her from the prom
isc According to Mr.. George Ticknor
Curtis, the separation originated in a
misunderstanding on the part of the
lady, who was unusually sensitive,
over some small matter exaggerated
by giddy and indiscreet tongues. Soon
after the cstrangement she was sent to
Philadelphia, and there died suddenly.
Throughout the rest of his life, or for
nearly half century, Mr.. Buchanan is
not known to have revealed to any,
body the circumstances Of this roman
tic tragedy. He would only say that
1T had changed his hopes and plans,
and had led him more deeply than ever
into politics as n distraction from his
grief. In his old age, long after he
had retired permanently to private life,
he called attention to package con-
tanning, he said, the papers and relics
which would explain the causes of his
youthful sorrow, and which he pre-
served evidently with the idea of re-
vealing them before his death. But
when he died, and his will was read.
1t was found that he had directed that
the package should be burned without
being opened, and his Injunction was
obeyed."
