Rev. @. r. O'Leary, of Macon, Mo-,
is a spirited Irish priest. Recently he
addressed a letter to the editor of the
Kansas City Star in response to cir
cular from that paper soliciting his
patronage, but it was not published.
He subsequently sent it to another
paper, which cheerfully inserted it in
full as follows:
Dear Sir: l have received a COM
munication from your office soliciting
my personal interest in behalf of your
paper. Are you aware that 1 am
Catholic priest, an authorized minister
of the church Of which you are an
avowed enemy, or have you forgotten
your recent utterances in reference to
her? In a recent article on Queen
Victoria, you indulge in eXtravagant
comparisons and betray culpable ig-
norance Of history that taxes ones pa
thence.
In your ignorance you boast of Eliz-
aletll in that "she brought relief from
the tyranny of Romanlsm under
Bloody Mary" Elizabeth, the bastard
queen, whose amours with Leicester
were open and notorious and which be-
came the subject Of Il play in the
reign Of Charles Elizabeth, who
had in the thirteenth year of her reign
assented to an act that was passed
which secured the crown to her ina
tural ISSUE" by which any bastard
that she might have by anybody be-
came heir to the throne. This act,
which is still in the statute book u3

most hardened profligacy that was
ever witnessed in woman. Goblet

and as many under Elizabeth. 1t is
safe to say that Queen Mary never
caused the execution Of any one under
the name Of religion. The disturban-
ces under her reign were mainly polit-
ical. Three rebcllions against her
crown and life were put down, fol-
lowed by the execution Of sixty per-
sons. 1t is established beyond a doubt
that many executions in Mary's reign
were brought about by the zeal Of
magistrates, whose Incorporate advo-
cacy Of her cause the queen in many
instances disapproved of. Those who
were most active in burning heretics
under Mary had distinguished them
selves in burning Catholics under Hen
ry and Edward, and who returned to
the same occupation in the reign Of
Elizabeth. Such were the Marquis of
Manchester and Sir William Cecil. It
is we'll known that Mary, during her
short reign, was chronic invalid. The
Protestant historian Fuller says: "She
had been worthy princess If as little
cruelty had been done under her as by
her."
Eut the bloodiest queen of all was
Victoria. Her reign was one Of prog
ress in crime, in numberless laws of
determination and destruction, in the

FATRER PATRICK HART
Post Chaplain at Fort Smelling leaves
for Manila.

AU1 Ad4llds
Rev. Patrick Hart, post chaplain for
eight years at Fort Smelling, has been
assigned to duty in the Philippines,
and left Friday night, March 8, for
San Francisco, whence he sails this
week on transport.
Soldiers as a rule are not overbur.
dened with sentiment, nor are they an
emotional class, but there is a genuine
feeling of regret at the fort; not one
OF the hardy, and, perhaps, hard
swearing "bucks' but is sincerely sor
ry to lose the genial chaplain. He was
no long-faced, straight-laced divine,
and he was not forever DINING into
the ears Of his flock the manifold dan
gers of the broad path that leads to
destruction. Ever ready to enter into
whatever fun was going on, always
kind, considerate and gentlemanly, he
was general favorite, and Catholics
and Protestants alike were ready to
swear by the "Father," says the st
Paul Globe.
The merciless provisions of the new
army bill are responsible for the tax
ing away Of Father Hart. Post chap
lains have been abolished, and regi-
mental chaplains substituted. The rev.
erend gentleman has for the past few
years been with the Eighth infantry,
the home battalion Of which is sta
toned at the fort. The new regula-
tons rendered it imperative that he be
assigned to regimental duty, and he
has therefore been ordered to join the
two battalions Of the Eighth now sta.
toned at Manila.
This is not the first time that the
chaplain has received travelling orders.

ENGLISH UNFIT TO RULE.
Judge !. Pennypacker's Letter in the
New York Sun.

The following letter on the incapacity
of the English to govern other people
recently appeared in the New York
Sun and repays perusal:
AS in the sixteenth century the OBJ
scure Dutch provinces, in resisting the
efforts of the dominant power Of that
age to establish the Inquisition, were
maintaining not alone their own cause
but that of England and all Europe, so
are the Beers of South Africa now
fighting the battle Of the whole world
to prevent the preparation Of crimes
less fanatical, but more sordid. Wheth-
er or not we lack the refinement and
sensibilities necessary to enable us to
sympathize with fortitude and cour-
age which have halted if not broken
the power of the empire, we at least
have sufficient wit to appreciate our
own interests.
We are told that destiny has selected
the Anglo-Saxon to be the future ruler
of all men, and the opportunity is pre-
scented to us to enter into the alliance.
If England fails to drive the Dutch
from their homes in South Africa she
will ere long need us for protection.
If she succeeds in adding that vast
continent to her possessions she will
need us for completeness. England
holds the British Islands, each en-
trance to the Mediterranean, Egypt,
India, Australia, New Zealand, Can
ada, the Bermudas and Jamaica, and
is even now planning to prevent us
from utilizing the waterways of our
own continent. Let no American cher
ish-the vain thought that should she
become strong enough our rights will
have greater efficacy than those of the
Beers.
: It was said in Blackwood's Maya
zine in December, 1862: Recent
events, by weakening the American
states and discrediting the American
principles Of government have turned
the tables very much in our favor"
of career which destroyed our COM
merce, saw the inside Of Confederate
port, and she was English from stem
to stern, outfit and crew. Wise men
look at consequences before rather
than afterward, and the time to pro-
vide for the future is in the present.
Whether by chance, intelligence, or
the favor Of Divine Providence, we
have developed a system of govern
ment which, leaving local affairs to be
settled within the states and national
affairs to be determined in q broad
way through representation, has prov
en- capable Of providing for the welfare
OF the people, and at the same time
Z strong enough to withstand the most
( dangerous assaults, internal and exter-
nal. There seems to be no reason why
this, system, extending across the
oceans, may not become cosmopolitan
as we'll as national and why we may
not hope to see in the far future
worldwide confederation of republics.
If the Beers are able to maintain pos
session of their country against the
forces Of the empire, we and our ideas
may in time be expected to lead. If
the British succeed, any alliance will
be a thing Of kings and courts and
funkeys.
Willing as the Englishman is to as
sumo control and call it the white
mans burden, he is unified for the
!. task. The killing of men and the de-
struction Of their belongings is not
government, but is the strongest evil
dence Of incapacity to govern. His

A Patrick's Day Tribute to Kruger.

A Patrick's Day Tribute to Kruger.
Once more am dreaming, dreaming
OF my sireland far away,
And proudly am wearing
The Shamrock green to-day
The Shamrock, fitting emblem
OF our faith from DER the deep,
From the island, dear Saint Patrick,
Where your martyred children Sleep
Oh! before me the mistic ocean
Stretches blue as the sky above,
And beyond the sparkling water
Is the dear old land I love.
And passionately murmur,
AS 1 gaze on the shining strand,
Why doesn't the flag Of Erin
Float DER my own dear land?
Oh! why is the banner furled
That should be flowing free,
Proclaiming to the world
The nation we should be?
A nation once so honored
Whose flag of green and gold
In all it's silken splendor
So proudly did unfold.
All! thine was the same sad story
While centuries passed away
OF wrongs that are repeated
In the Transvaal drear to-day.
And now, o valiant Kruger,
Ireland's deepest sympathy
Is with you in your struggle
For home and liberty.
Oh! many gallant soldier
Now in lonely grave
Game fearless and undaunted
From his home beyond the wave,
And after hard fought battles
In the Transvaal found rest
That year ago wore proudly
The shamrock on his breast.
For Ireland, dear old Ireland,
Babe her best and bravest go
Help the Beers to fight for freedom
Against their common foe.
And, oh! if Ireland ever
Should call for help to you,
] know of none to give it
More valiant, brave, or true.
Then let us, cen though sadly,
Vet nrOud1v. wear TODAY
The shamrock Of old Ireland
Dear Ireland, far away.
For thy children, dear Saint Patrick
In their exile over the sea,
Are bound by the shamrock closer
To their Country, God, and Thee.

The Best Ever Here.

The Franklin Stock Company play
ed to fair houses Monday and Tues
day nights although the weather was
inauspicious. The company has fine
troupe and the acting is as good as
one would witness in large cities, in
Faust especially they do we'll although
hampered somewhat by the smallness
of the stage and other inconyeniences.
Faust is rather heavy play for a
small company to undertake in small
places and while Central hall is well
enough adapted for other plays it was
hard to put Faust upon the boards
here, but in spite of all it was nobly
done and delighted the large audience.
Mephisto, the spirit of evil in the
person of Percy IL. Jack, is prince of
actors, the others all took their parts
well. The Yale Cornet Band, under
whose auspices the company came,
gave number of splendid oyertures
to fill in the time between acts and the
boys received many compliments from
those present. Should our town again
be favored by visit from the Franklin
Stock Company there is not question
of doubt but that they will be received
by packed houses.

Ten Years of Service.

1t was ten years ago last Saturday,
the 18th day of May, that Aaron
Windsor came from Croswell and To-
Gated in Yale. Dick, as he is more
commonly called, is tonsorial artist
and a professional at his trade. His
razors, shears, and clippers are always
in order, his towels clean and the way
he can trim you up in the latest style,
making the homeliest man handsome,
is astonishing. There is not person
in the whole town who has attended
more strictly to business than has Dick.
During all of these ten years he has
lost only two Saturdays. He is court
eous and accommodating and has a
large circle of friends all of whom will
be pleased to see him located in his
new shop, where he has moved this
week. The interior arrangement OF
this building is planned for conven
ience and comfort and the decorations
are simply elegant. 1t will be lighted
by electricity and heated by bot water
