WAR AND FRANCE.

Numerous dispatches and letters
are to the effect that the people of
France are praying as they have not
prayed in years. That there is a real
and true religious spirit manifest in
Paris such as has not been witnessed
in decades. One writer states that
the war may succeed in establishing
some sort of friendly standing be-
tween the French church and the
State in France. The nuns have been
recalled from Belgium, whittier they
fled. They are now serving in the
hospitals and upon the battlefeds.
Nearly $4,000 priests and monks are
assisting France in the present strug-
gle. These men, whose lives are
given to the Church, are not on the
field of battle as chaplains. Red
Cross nurses or attendants, they
actually form part of the fighting
force of France. They are fighting
in the lines and falling in the trench
es. Their patriotism is no longer
questioned and the clerical peril"
that political illusion of France, has
disappeared for the time being. The
clergy of every nation are serving
heroically in the ranks of the armies
Of the country they represent.
France, indeed, has reason to hang
her head in shame because of the
charges made against the patriotism
of her Catholic citizens and members
of religious orders. She wants them
now. and wants them badly. Wheth-
er her repentance for what she has
done against religion is sincere or
not remains a question. What
France may do at the close of the
war is problematical. France has

A NATIONAL HENIORRHAGE.

Reviewing the words of the noted
Father Phalen in the Sacred Heart
Messenger" when he spoke unon
conditions in Ireland and the Irish
outlook, with reference to the youth
of Ireland emigrating he declared it
a national hemorrhage. The figures
collected by Father Phalen to sub
stantiate his arguments are indisput-
able and his conclusions beyond con-
troversy. He speaks of the value of
the youth in Ireland in cold dollars
and cents and when we reflect that
the British red coats have ever been
the object of Irish and American
wrath and danger, that this same
uniform is now to be found upon
the body of an Irish youth, slain on
the fields of France, it can be classed
as nothing more or less than suicide.
Referring to the figures of Father
Phalen, he states that it costs $1,000
to bring up a boy to his eighteenth
year and $3.50 to bring up a girl.
This means that. when the youth of
the land began being producers they
are destined to leave ireland on
board an emigrant ship or that they
are now doing what is worse, enlist
ing in the ranks of the English ar
mics. Taking the emigrant figures,
together with the figures given
above, it means that Ireland has been
pouring into the laps Of foreign ma
lions thirty-five million dollars per
year for which no return is given. We
speak about the greatness of Ameri-
ca. We should remember that our
productive men and women have cost
us not a cent. that the foreigners,
against whom SO much has been said
and against whom so much silly
cant was directed in the national leg
islature last winter. is the most val
liable of national assets. He comes
to us, his hands ready for toll, with
out costing the nation one cent to
produce him. Poverty stricken, fam
inc stricken Ireland of the days that
are past, but not forgotten. The
land is now supporting but one-half
the population it supported in years
gone by. Two generations have di-
vided the population Of Ireland in
two. But the sad, sad fact remains,
that it is the strong and the healthy,
the young and the promising, that
leave Ireland to take up their abode
among strangers, leaving behind
them the old and weak, and the in
firm.

London, Oct. 2.-The Royal Com

events of July 26, last, when four
people were killed and many wound
ed in Dublin during the fight with
the police and soldiers, following the
landing of the guns by nationalist
volunteers at Howth,, nine miles

How the Ulster Orangemen and
the English Tories must be gloating
over the fact that the sentiment,
both among the native sons of Erin
and their descendants, is turning
against the nationalist leader, John
Redmond, because of the roll he has
assumed as a recruiting officer for
the British army. 1t is the conf
dence of the Irish men and women
throughout the world that Redmond
should cultivate and not the whisper
ings of Ireland's enemies, who be-
guile him with praises for his patri-
otto efforts in behalf of the British
Empire, while they seek to destroy
ireland by undermining her strength.

A GLOOMY OBJECT LESSON.


young Irishmen have returned from
the battlefields Of France. This
gloomy exhibit of the remnants of
six hundred of the Dublin Fusilliers
should be lesson to the young men
of Ireland. Every missing man from
among the Fusilliers represents a
youth that Ireland could not spare
and yet, youth that has died in the
place of an Anglo-Saxon who con-
tentedly remained at home. He is
fighting for country that suspend
his liberty while he is fighting and
listens to a ranter declare that, upon
his return he will have whatever
measure of liberty given him by the
Home Rule Bill removed by the en-
actment of law. Ireland has seen
enough agony and has witnessed
enough suffering and experienced
enough sorrows without again filling
her homes with the crippled and the
infirm, and casting gloom over
Irish firesides, because of missing
sons. The children of the Emerald
Isle, whose names are delight to
pronounce have that glorious pro-
nouncement made in connection with
their career. "They died for their
native land" But what shall be said
of their defendants, who are giving
their lives to perpetuate the exist
ance of a government to whom the
lives of their ancestors was forfeited.
The Dublin Fusillers made no sacri-
fee, they committed crime.

ing. although it has recently received
the support Of the legislative repre-
sentative Of the American Federation
OF Labor. 1t is compromise pro-
vision, agreed on only after the House
members who favor union labor had
prepared themselves for a decisive bat
tie with Administration forces in Con-
gress.
The wording. Of the section which has
caused so much dispute is as follows:
That nothing contained in the anti
trust laws shall be construed to forbid
the existence and operation of fraternal,
la Dor. consumers. agricultural, or horti-
cultural organizations. orders. or asso-
Citations instituted for the purposes Of
mutual help. and not having capital

scciations, from carrying out the legiti-
mate objects thereof; nor shall such
organizations. orders. or associations,
or the members thereof, be held or con-
conspiracies In restraint Of trade under
the antitrust laws"

This provision was defended by the
Administration leaders in the House.

thor Of the original bill for outright
exemption, declared in a speech that
the hour was at hand when the

was in some doubt as to the exact ef-
feet of the amendment, and said that
ed no special credit for It. but did in
sist he had labored at an times to
have the injustice of making labor and
farmers organisations subject to the
Sherman law remedied by proper leg

empted by the compromise provision
