unions are not anarchistic organiza-
tons nor do the men who belong to
them as body advocate unlawful
methods for furthering their ends.
Labor unions are necessary outcome
Of our present economic system. With
out them the laborer would be COM
pletely at the mercy of the capitalist.
He would be in no position to de-
mand his rights. Through the in
fuence of properly conducted organi-
cations the workingman is able to
get a better price for his services
than would otherwise be possible.
Properly conducted labor unions are
boon to the laborer. 1t is too bad
that the Mcnamara case should have
any connection with them.
The Irish standard., 1911-12-09
Never Admit Defeat.

Never admit defeat or poverty
though you seem to be down and have
not a cent. Stoutly assert your divine
right to be man, to hold your head
up and look the world in the face; step
bravely to the front whatever opposes
and the world will make way for you
No one will insist upon your rights
while you yourself doubt that. you pos
sess the qualities requisite for sue
cess. Never allow yourself to become
a traitor to your own cause by under
minding your lf-conf1dence.
There never was time before when
persistent, original force was so much
In demand as now. The namby-pam-
by, nerveless man has little show in
the hustling world of today. In the
twentieth century man must either
push or be pushed.
Every one admires the man who can
assert his rights and has the power to
demand and take them if denied him,
No one can respect the man who sinks
in the rear and apologies for being in
the world. Negative virtues are of no
use in winning ones way. 1t is the
positive man, the man with original
energy and push, that FORCES to the
front.

BAD LITERATURE rABooED.

1t is interesting to notice the or
ganized effort that the people of Ire
land are making to put stop to the
distribution and sale of periodicals
containing matter which should not
be read by children. The chief source
of this demoralizing stuff in Ireland
is the English newspaper Through
this medium divorce stories with all
their nauseating details are circulat-
ed In Ireland for the decentralization
of the young men and women under
whose notice they chance to fall
The remedy which the people Of
Dublin and Limerick and other cities
propose to make use of is to get the
heads of families, news agents and
newsboys to pledge themselves not to
buy or sell the Objectionable periodi-
calls. Vigilance committees of citizens
are formed to take note of publica-
tons offering improper reading mat
ter. The organization opposing the
spread Of bad literature is thus sup
ported by all the respectable people
of the locality and, being thus COM
prehensive and thorough, they have
a decided influence and can do uuch
in the way of checking the evil of bad
literature.
There is room in this country for a
movement like that started in the
Irish cities. 1t is safe to say that
there Is more demoralizing literature
in any city in the United States. than
in any Irish city of equal size. Yet
here there is not that unity of action
which characterizes the people in Ire
land. The prevention of the spread
of bad literature should not be mat.
ter in which Catholics alone should
be interested. 1t is an evil which the
people of all creeds should unite in
combating. The fact that Ireland is
largely Catholic should not be rea
son why unity of action is easier
there. All who are interested In
Christian morality should be willing
to unite in opposing the spread of bad
reading matter whether in newspa
pers, magazines or books.

DEVOTION TO PRINCIPLE.

No nation in the world has rec
ord which will compare with the rec
ord the Irish people have made by
their unanimity in adhering to prin-
ciples of the truth of which they once
became convinced. Nothing, not even
the direst persecution, could cause
them to give up their religion. At
length right triumphed and their su-
periors in force relented, and today
the descendants of those sturdy men
and women who scorned the Penal
Code out of existence, have right to
be proud Of their lineage when they
read such tributes as the one that
was given by Chief Secretary Birrell
in a recent speech in England.
after studying Ireland for many
years." said Mr.. Birrell, "the main
feeling left in my mind is how, after
all the fighting and revolution and
confiscation and menace, after all the
Penal Laws and famines and 1.-THE
wars and Coercion Acts, after the de-
struction of native industries and the
yearly drain on the population by
emigration, there are still in Ireland
four and half million of people,
and that the majority of them still
adhere to their old religion. Such
,tenacity of faith is, / believe, almost
unexampled in the history Of the
whole world. From the time of Eliza
beth almost down to the time of Vic
toria to be a Catholic in Ireland was
to be an outcast They (the Catholics)
were robbed of their land, they wers
given their choice between hell and
Connacht; they were ousted from por-
tions Of Ulster in favor Of Scotch
men, and they were killed or banished
whenever opportunity offered But
they were neither annihilated nor con-
verified, and yet from the time of Eliza
beth downwards to our own day they
enjoyed all the blessings of the Pro-
testant blishment."
