IreIand's Thanks to America.

mand which the generous friends Of

people and party as the condition of
their support SAYS the Dublin Free

prevailed that the stream of Irish
American generosity ran dry. When
America pledged itself ut the last con-
vention to supply $4,000. it was limited
by the enemy that pledges and prom
Uses were something very different
from cash. The cablegram which we
publish indicates that that pledge has
been more than redeemed. The last
thousand pounds cabled brings the to-
tai close up to $4,000.
Most noteworthy in connection with
this munificent subscription are the
contributions OF the eminent Catholic
Prelates on the other side of the At
lantic. Here is a proof. II proof Were
needed, that the Irish Americans will
not forget the old land. There is
something eminently touching III this
steadfast devotion. Here in Ireland
material interests join with sentiment
IN the demand for Home Rule. Poverty
and depopulation are the fruits of the
existing government. and the people
are naturally eager for relief But 1t
is sentiment alone, unmixed with in
terest, that prompts the splendid gen.
erosity of the Irish Americans.

With fiery love that deemed it JOY for

While round it swells no battle song,

Yet day by day some shrink away or

To where the green is waving free be-
Meath the Southern skies.

property. Making the best of a woeful

the baby Johanna Ernestine-which was
