down to and including the present a
great number of Irish priests ana bist,-
ops who have taken a prominent and
patriotic part in the political affairs
of their country. "No priests in poll
tics" has been the cry of the enemies
of Ireland for hundreds of years
from the days Of ST. Lawrence OToole
IN Strongbow's time to the days of
Archbishop McHale, Archbishop Walsh
and Bishop Nulty in our own.
Why has the cry been repeated from
age to age? Because the foes Of Ire
land know right we'll what influence
they possess and exert on the people
under their spiritual care. in peace
and in war. The priests and bishous
have always been the brave cham-
pions and sagacious guides OF the peo.
plo and never proved recreant to the
confidence reposed in their patriotism.
The cry OF mo priests in politics.
Is now being raised in Ireland by the
un!onists, who are turning heaven
and earth to prevent the passage OF
the Home Rule bill. The priests of
Ireland are only following the illus
trious example Of the priests OF for
mer times in the cause Of holy free
dom. The annals of Irish history are
illuminated by the name of Bishop
Heber Mcmahon who led the Irish
army against Cromwell with sword in
hand after Owen Roe O.Neill was
poisoned while on his way to meet
