tyrs to the cause of Irish nationality.
The effect produced in Ireland bA
these executions is we'll stated by Mr..
Sullivan, as follows: Surprise, dis
may, grief and rage filled every
breast. Men gasped astounded, and
asked could this dreadful tale be
true. Others more violently moved
went about with flushed cheek and
darkened brow, clenching their teeth
in silent passion. Men, who even up
to this time had been more or less
i'll conflict with Fenianism, were
overpowered by this blow. For what,
they asked, was this deed in AIanches-
ter but an act of political vengeance,
another cruel tragedy in the long
struggle between Irish revolt and
English power? In the afternoon
came fuller accounts of the execution,
containing one sentence which stung
the Irish people most keenly: The
bodies of the three murderers were
buried i'll quicklimc in unconsecra ted
ground within the Jail" Murderers,
indeed! Buried in quicklime! Here
was Il stroke which went home,-a
barked and poisoned arrow that
pierced the heart of Ireland. This
branding of their inanimate bodies
with infamy, this denial of Christian
burial in consecrated earth, wounded
the most sensitive feelings of Irish
men. Next day, Sunday, the news
reached the provinces, and in hun
dreds of churches, at the morning
mass, the priest, his voice broken
with emotion, asked the congregation
to pray Gods mercy on the souls of
the three victims. The answer was
Il wall of grief, and many wept out
right when the story of their execrl-
tion was told. I never knew Ireland
to be more deeply moved by mingled
feelings of grief and anger. 1t was
not the death Of the prisoners, al
though from what had been stated,
and deemed frightful severity.
When men, arms in hand, attempt
such a deed as Kelly's rescue, they
must be prepared and content to abide
the penalty, though it be death itself.
1t was the conviction that these men,
innocent or guilty, had not had fair
trial, that the cause Of Irish national
ity was meant to be struck at and
humiliated in their persons, and above
all, the attempt to class them as vul-
gar murderers, not political culprits,
and to offer indignity to their remains.
that led to the wondrous upheaval of
Irish feeling which now startled the
mpire.

THEsONE TERM IDEA.

y resolution has been introduced III
Congress by Representative Gaines
OF Tennessee, proposing an amend
ment to the constitution making the
presidential term six years and max
ing the president ineligible for re-elec-
ton. This is not IL new proposition
1t has been urged before, on two
grounds. First, it is said that elec-
tions hurt business and throw the
country into turmoil. That they should
be held as infreuuently as possible.
II this argument We're carried to it's
logical conclusion. it might be said
we would be better off without any
elections. The people will hardly
stand for removing the control of
their public officials further away.
Elections do cost money and the loss
OF much vital energy, but this is
nothing co'unared With the loss which
might res'r to the principle of gov
ernmcnt by the people by enlarging
the presidential term. The people of
this country have been striving for
some years to get IL better hold OH the
United States Senate, by asking for
an amendment providing for direct
vote There is even Il strong feeling
that the president should be elected
hy a direct vote of the people of the
whole country, rather than by Il vote
of the people of the different states.
The other proposition to make the
president ineligible to reelection
would, we believe, on the whole be
productive Of much good. 1t would
make the president absolutely free Of
the politicians. He could then make
appointments to the public service un-
influenced by considerations of cleo
| tion to Il second term. He could then
| give his own best thought to public
questions, undiSturbed by considera-
| tions of reelection. He could act up
on public questions with Il sole idea
Of the public good. The one term is
all right. but we doubt the wisdom of
letting the power of the people away
from them for Il longer period than is
now provided. For if president
could have but one term, it is evil
dent that lie would be less influenced
| by public sentiment than he would be
| if he We're figuring on second term.
y one-term president for six years
could very easily operate as great
hindrance to the will of the people,
business considerations are impor-
tant. but the right of the people to
rule ;And govern in this country is in
tinitcly more important. Let us have
frequent elections and let us be more
alert and eNacting in demanding a
full account of their acts from our
| public servants.

THE MANCHESTER MARTYRS.

No country in the world has such 4
list of martyrs as Ireland. Other
countries celebrate the anniversaries
of the birth of their national heroes.
But in Ireland the anniversaries of
the death of it's martyrs are celebrat-
ed. All countries and times have fur
nished martyrs to religion. AL coun-
tries have heroes who fell in battle,
but Ireland is peculiar in that it pre-
sents long list Of religious and poll
tical martyrs. Its martyrs are its
heroes. Next Monday will be the an
niversary Of the execution Of the
Manchester martyrs, Allen, Larkin
and O'Brien. 10 many now living,
the events which led up to the eXccu-
ton of these men and the execution
itself are now history. 1t may not
therefore be out Of place to briefly re-
call the facts. AS is we'll known,

This country to effect the political in
dependence of Ireland through resort

lion. In March, 1867, this movement
led to an instruction in Ireland
which failed. The leader of the
.'cniun party in Ireland, james Ste.
phens, was forced to leave the coun
try, and his place was taken by
Thomas J. Kelly. The latter was ar

Once more the conditions as to di-
Vorce and remarriage We're up before
the Protestant Episcopal bishops, but
out of the discussion there issued
nothing tangible, says the Philadel-
phia Standard and Times. The only
conclusion that seemed to have been
arrived at was that it was necessary
that one uniform law on the subject
prevail. 1t is greatly to be doubted
that any real remedy for this wide
spread moral pestilence would bc
found in uniformity of practice. The
only real cure is to be found in the
law and practice of the Catholic
Church. The Enquirer recently OBJ
served that the old law of requiring
banns to be published, with formal
registration of all marriages, was an
excellent one.' Although the law is
old, it should not be spoken of in the
past tense. 1t still exists, and will
exist as long as the old Church which
made the law eXists-the old Catholic
Church, which is to exist as long as
the human race shall last.

Letter From Archbishop.

Archbishop Ireland has mailed to
all the parish priests of the archdio-
cese the following letter.
st. Paul, Minn, Nov. II, 1908.
Rev. Dear Father: The President of
the Nation and the Governor of the
State have requested that Thursday,
November Goth, be set apart as day
of solemn Thanksgiving to Almighty
God for the manifold graces and
blessings vouchsafed to us during the
past year.
1t is right and proper that we honor
the day thus set apart with due relig-
ious ceremonials.
You will please celebrate Mass in
your church at an hour convenient
for your people, and, after the reading
of the Gospel, preach al sermon such
as the occasion suggests.
On the preceding Sunday invite
earnestly your people to assist at the
Mass on Thanksgiving day.
This counsel for the religious OBJ
servance as to Thanksgiving day is
addressed to all the parishes of the
diocese, to those i'll the country places
no less than to those in the cities, and
is to be followed, not only in the
present year, but in future years.
This observance is rule of the
diocese, and is not dependent upon
letter to be written each year by the
Ordinary. Sincerely yours,

that other distinguished Democrat,

for that piece OF business He was
the one who refused to be bound at
that time by policies on which the
Democrats had secured control of
both houses of Congress and the pres
idency. 1t has ever been so. The
Republicans are always able to get
what they want, even when in the
minority. In the fall of 1876. the
people of the United States elected
Samuel j. Tilden president. There
was no doubt about the result. The
majority of the popular vote was
large and the electoral vote decisive.
The Democrats controlled the House
of Representatives, which under the
constitution has Il right to decide all
contests on presidential elections.
Yet enough Democrats were found.

which he himself has often employed
