IRISH OVERSIGHT.
A Theory IN Account for Neglect Of Ger.

To THE EDITOR OF THE SUN--Sir. In
THE SrN OF Sunday. September 81. there
was an account of the church OF st.
Michan IN Dublin. which was part of a
description of this wonderful church 1
wrote to friend, "ho had evidently
sent II to you.
For week watched your paper for
some 1rishman who knew of this church
to write and give you some more informa-
tion on the subject. but the Irish leave 1t
to others to praise the wonders of their
country they are too busy getting away
to take much interest In their native land.
This may sound little caustic. but !
have been surprised more than once at
the small value the Irish put on Ireland
and its treasures of various kinds. Maybe
this will sting some one who knows st.
Michan into telling something OF 1t.

evinced the least interest in 1t.

Is Preaching Sabotage a COnstitu.
tiOnaI Right"

When the Industrial Workers OF the
world saw that they had lost their
strike against the silk manufacturers
in Passaic county. New Jersey. they
began to preach sabotage To their fol-
lowers. advising them on returning to
work to destroy the machinery and
material entrusted by their employers
to their care. One leader. named
RoyD. gave specific directions In an adj
dress as to the manner In which unspun
silk could easily I've ruined. He was
arrested. charged with advocating the
destruction Of personal property" ac-
cording to the news dispatches, and
held for trial.
Waving his right to n jury trial,
BOYD was tried before Judge KIrNrRr
After testimony as to his words had
been given he admitted the authentic
ity of the quotation from his address.
and argued. through his counsel that
il did not constitute violation of
the net. This content on the court did
not Sustain. and BoYD was declared
guilty. sentence being postponed until
Friday Of this week.
II Is announce. that the case will
be appealed and that the present trial
was hastened to a conclusion by the
defendant to expedite the decision Of
the matter by the higher courts There
IL no need To point out that the princi-
pie animating BoYp in giving his advice
to his hearers was the same as that on
which the Industrial Workers Of the
World acted in this city in suggesting
to It's members to poison the food they
prepared for guests in hotels and res
taurauts. 1t Is based OH the theory
speech protects a man In any utterance,
no matter how violent It may he. The
New Jersey Constitution does indeed
guarantee freedom Of speech, but 1t
contains a provision that is frequently
overlooked or disregarded. The Con-
stitution says:
Every person may freely speak. write
and publish his sentiments on all sub
Jects being responsible for the abuse of
that right"
The Constitution Of New York con.
tains the same provision. save that the
word "citizen' replaces the word per.
SON II Is to the first clause Of this
provision that every anarchist and
revolutioni>t appeals when public
policy suggests the suppression Of his
efforts to disturb the peace, destroy
the property of others or endanger
the lives Of citizens. 1t Is under the
second clause that society arms itself
for protection against the wild out
givings Of mislcd. INSCRIPTIONS or de-
mented men.
On the subject Of freedom of speech
there is much loose thinking. The con-
victon Of BoyD shows that New Jersey
has n law TO bring the responsibility,
home to those who abuse the right. aud
the only question now to be settled j.
whether BOYD actually did violate it a.

mated at ST 100000.
At Louisville, KY, the velocity of the
wind at 2 o'clock was sixty miles an hour
Two men were killed and several persons

1t is more expensive to build permanent
roads in Louisiana than in many other
States for obvious reasons. But Louisiana
needs good roads at the very time when
the roads are in the worst possible condi-
ton, and the consequent loss, coupled with
the cost Of trying to maintain dirt roads,
more than offsets the expense of building
and maintaining permanent roads. This
is not taking into consideration the added
comforts and conveniences and the in
creased property values that follow in the
wake of 'good" roads that are good all
the year.-Shreveport Times.

That illustrious mathmetician and philos-
opher, Sir Issac Newton, closed his career
on March 20, 1727-186 years ago to-day.
His life and manners make as great a dis
covery of virtue and goodness and recti-
tude Of heart, as his works have done of
penetration and the utmost stretch of hu-
man knowledge. Even his plays in child
hood were experiments in physics, while in
mature life his relaxations from hard think
ing were dabblings in ancient chronology
and the mysteries of the Apocalypse. The
passions of other men for love, for money,
for power were in him nonresident; all
his energies we're devoted to study.
