The GAELIC REVIVAL.
CFrom the Brooklyn Times

(From the Brooklyn Times.
When President Roosevelt, at the an
nual gathering of the Friendly Sons of
st. Patrick spoke of the revival of in
terest in the ancient Gaelic tongue, and
urged the propriety of establishing
chairs for the study of Celtic language
and literature i'm our universities, his
suggestion compelled the inquiry. why
has not this been done? Among our
millionaires there is not lacking those
whose names indicate an undOubted
Celtic liDeage-SuCh names as Morgan,
Mackay, Kelly, Carnegie. O'DonQhue-
and it seems strange that these should
have failed to take the initiative in such
a matter.
Strange it is, too. that the inspiration
of the present Gaelic reawakening
should not have come from among the
children of the exiles in America, who
so proudly cherish the memories of
their motherland. instead of from the
universities of Germany. 1t is true that
for long time there have been here
earnest workers in this direction, and
wherever the children of the Goel meet
the name of the late Michael j. Logan
of Brooklyn-who sacrificed himself
through years of patient and ill-requit-
ed labor to arouse interest in the study
of this neglected tongue-should be re-
membered with respect. His work has
not been without avail. for there are
groups of earnest students in every
American city who are laboring to ac-
quire facility in the use of the language
of their fathers. but the study has not
yet received the impetus which liberal
encouragement should give it.

ly probable that the existing govern
ment monopoly in the colleges ana

viii undergo drastic notifications III
the near future, if, indeed, they be not
entirely abolished. One thing above all
favors their Catholic cause-during the
past twenty-three years a body OF
graduates of the Catholic university
has been forming. These men, on their
own merits, have crept into the higher
official life of the British empire, the
diplomatic. the home and the Indian
civil services. They form an intellec-
tual body from which the political
classes in England can form just
estimate of the intellectual Dre-emi-
nence of the educated Irishman. The
empire is not so fruitful of great sons
that she can afford to lose any through
lack of proper education. The cause of
Irish universit education will probably
win its way on this hypothesis. Finally
to quote Mr. Church:
The object sought by Irish Catholics
is not prescription nor ascendancy.
They demand simply that the public
funds shall be shared equally between
Catholc and nom Catholic teaching III
Stitutions on their educational merits.
For the organization of their own uni
Versities they insist that they shall be
ruled by academical bodies representa-
tive of Catholic public opinion and their
teaching shall be such as the church
finds no reason to condemn. The inde
pendence in internal administration of
the college they desire to be such as
that enjoyed by the colleges of oxford,
Cambridge or Berlin, or, the Catholic
universities of Belgium or Austria. The
nucleus of such university already
exists in the Dublin university college,"

VICTORY FOR IRISH PARTY.

The Irish party scored "a noteworthy
achievement when the Town Tenants
Dreland) Bill. which was in charge of
Patrick OBrien, obtained its second
reading and was referred to a grand
committee. This was the first bill put
down by the party this session. which
makes the result all the more satisfac-
tory. The second reading was moved in
an eminently practical and business
like speech by Mr.. O'Brien, and Mr..
Field seconded it. as he has been closely
identified with this subject for several
years.
The provisions of the bin proposes to
provide that where a tenant OF a town
holding desires to make improvements,
he in the first place ask the landlords
assent. IF the landlord gives his as
sent the improvements are registered.
and in the event Of the tenant giving
up the holding he will receive COM
pensation for the Improvements, less
wear and tear. Should the. landlord re-
fuse tc assent TO the registration of
the improvements, the tenant could ap-
peal to the county court, where the
judge, il he was satisfied that they
would be suitable to the holding, could
order them to be registered.
The opposition came from Sir John
Colomb who was backed up by tine
cnleI secretary, VINO OBJECTED to intro
ducing this system of compensation
into town holdings, which, he MAIN
tanned, We're on a different footing
from agricultural land. However. al
though he declared that he would vote
against the bill himself, he did not ask
anyone to follow his example. His at
titude, though hostile, was quite fair.
The case for the bill was, i'm fact. un-
answerable for as T. W. Russell put
it. under the existing law the land
lord would do nothing in the way Of
improvements, and the tenant was
afraid to do anything. The Irish Union
lists also supported it. and in the divi-
sion six Of them voted for the second
reading. The majority for the second
rea ding was 81, while the motion to re-
fer it to the grand committee was
carried by IS. The Liberals voted in
d body for the measure, and also some
half-doZen English Unionist members.
The bill should undoubtedly pass
into law. unless the session is termi- |
mated unexpectedly by a dissolution. |
The Irish party Will now press to have !
ii brought before the grand committee |
at the earliest possible rate, and it |
should pass through that stage in one |
or two sittings.--Irish World.

NEW IRIsH-AMERlcAN coNsuLs.

Carrying out his own doctrine that
words are more empty sounds unless
backed by action, President Roosevelt
has followed up his great tribute to our
race with the appointment of several
prominent Irish-Americans to import
ant positions in the consular service.
While we rejoice in the recognition
OF our countrymen we do not forget
that President Roosevelt has honored
these men solely in their capacity as
citizens of this republic, without re-
gard to their race or creed. II is only
Just that he should do so, but he has
proved by their appointment that our
people, IN common with all others, will
receive the rights they are entitled to
at his hands. We ask for no more.
The men selected by him are in
every way able and worthy men and
are well qualified to take up the duties
incumbent upon them. We guarantee
they will reflect credit on America in
their new positions and will not alone
be faithful and dignified representa-
tives of this republic but will treat the
governments to which they are as
signed with that respect and justice
to which they are entitled.
That fawning servility to foreign
preJud1ces which has long been the
Dane OF our consular and diplomatic
service, will find no favor at their
hands, and they will be true and manly
Americans as well as respectful and
conscientious officials.
Among the men honored by President
Roosevelt are John w. O'Hara, of
Indiana, who has been appointed consul
at Montevideo; James Jeoffrey Roche.
Of Massachusetts,, consul at Genoa. and
L. st. John Gaffney, of New York.
consul at Dresden.

APRIL In ERIN.

CWritten for the Pilot)
Ho! for the glorious April weather,
The winds and the waves at play,
The golden shine and the shower to-
gether,
And a rainbow every day.
Surely, surely the glad awaking
OF other worlds than this
The dark gray dome, like mist, up
breaking,
And showing us isles of bliss.
The woof of blue, the tint so tender
Of the awning spread above!
A new earth clothed with light and
splendor,
And infinite joy and love,
Gush from their deeps the unsealed
fountains,
And every morn, anew
The rear and the far and the distant
mountains
Laugh at their robes of blue.
The risen flowers; the birds rejoicing,
The incense from the sward,
The hills, the dales and the wales are
voicing
The glory of the Lord
Earth once more is a joyous Eden.
Man and maid and boy
And glorious alleuias, keyed in
The highest note of joy.
Ho, for the glorious April weathr.
The winds to the waves that call
The golden shine and the showed to-
gether,
And the rainbow over all.
Surely, surely some voice magnetic
Calls loud to land and ssal
Surely, surely our joys prophetic
OF the joy that is to be.
