A PICTURESQUE CHARACTER
PASSED.

Many western readers of the Irish
Standard will learn with regret of the
death of Michael w. Crowley, a mining
operator merchant and banker, of Spo-
kane, Washington. The deceased was
one of the best known men of eastern
washington having gone to the Pacific
coast in 1862. He was born in Rath-
drum, Wicklow County, Ireland, in
1S41. He left home when Is years of
age, embarked on a sailing vessel for
America, remaining in various cities
In the state of New York. Two years
later he started to California. He was
placed in charge of the stores in Fl.
Mohane at the outbreak of the Civil
War in 1861. He settled in Portland.
Oregon, in 1862, and later went to the
famous Florence mining camp in Flor
ence, Idaho. In 1864 he settled in spo-
kane. In 1872 he engaged in the bank
ing business being connected with the
Traders National Bank of that city.
His wife died in 1907. He is survived
by two daughters, Mrs. ]. ]. Reedy, of
Medford, Oregon, Mrs. James smyth,
OF Spokane, Washington. The de-
ceased was a typical pioneer of that
sturdy Irish stock. He left the i'm
preston Of his character and the
stamp Of his manliness upon all en-
terprtses and upon all affairs in which
he was interested. He was an excel
lent representative Of the ambitious
young 1rishman who, knowing the
upon their ambitions in the
land OF their birth, would not help but
make a burden upon them after the
years held by bidding goodbye to all
that is near and dear to him and
sought their homes elsewhere, and up
right manliness, the success which has
attended their efforts as q protection
against the conditions which caused
them to leave the land Of their birth.

The Latest Move of Radicalism

Radicalism is showing itself in many
ways in these days. 1t has, in fact, be-
gun to run wild. In Chicago some few
days ago, as every one was we'll in
formed in the general newspapers, q
doctor refused to attempt to save the
live of child because it was defective.
He then issued statement and wrote
an article for the Socialist paper, the
New York Call, in which he declared
that "the case is strong argument
for birth control" and that IF l could
have legally prevented the birth of the
child would have done It," Then he
proposed sterilization as his universal
remedy for the situation. "Sterilize
detectives in this generation and we
will have so per cent less detectives
in the next. Sterilize detectives for
three generations and we will have
nearly normal race" These sweeping
statements did not take into account,
as Radicalism never takes into &C.
count, the great moral evils which
would result from such measures and
their final inadequacy in the line of
the physical improvement of the race.
AS result of the whole episode in
Chicago, it had been announced, a
movement is to be set on foot afresh
to legalize the practice of birth con-
troll" At the present time any physi-
clan who aids in this matter is SUBJ
ject to a fine of $4,000 and five years
in prison-a most deserved punish
ment. The aim is now to have this
law repealed. DR.. Robinson, the So
cialist writer on medical topics, is the
prime mover in the matter. In the
New York Call of November 23rd, he
announces, that "a band of reformers
has already been selected to assail the
legislators when they assemble in the
capital"
Three years ago." he goes on to say,
1--WE were treated like criminals when
we attempted to get the matter before
Congress. But the wide discussion of
the (Chicago) case has made it impos-
sible for the law makers to ignore the
subject any longer.

The case has no direct bearing on
birth control, for the mother had two
healthy children. But the publicity
which the case has received has at
least swept away those barriers of ST.
lence which hitherto have kept the
subject of childbirth from considera-
ton by our great American public"
And so we have the whole meat of
the story. The pernicious practice of
artificial birth control is to be taught
to the people and encouraged. What
brutality of thought and action will
such violation of the natural laws
bring forth! Even in this particular
instance the representatives of "sci-
ence" are at odds, for one thinks that
birth control could have been prac.
ticed to advantage in the Chicago case
and the other thinks otherwise. The
radical organ, "The New Republic"
(Nov. 27), while it champions birth
control and thinks the Chicago doctor
"a pioneer" is doubtful as to whether
we could trust any one with the "ulti-
mate decision" as to what children are
unfit and what children otherwise. If
we cannot trust medical men with the
decision as to the unfit in early life,
how can we have them decide the
status of child as yet unborn?
Catholics should use every means to
combat these radical and unhealthy
proposals, leading to sinful and de-
structive violations of the natural law.
Race suicide and sterilization will not
assist us in the solution of the prob
lem OF the feeble-minded and defective.
Segregation of those undoubtedly de-
fective and advice as to the abstention
from marriage for others who may
rear defective children is the way we
must meet this matter. The destruct-
i've ideas of responsibility and sell
fishness, leading to so much greater
evils, must be stamped out and dis
couraged. Against this latest move Of
Radicalism we must emphatically and
decisively pit our energies.

EXPRESSING THEIR VIEWS.

EXPRESSING THEIR VIEWS.
Bishop Foley, of Kildare, men,
Der of the Irish Hierarchy, has
given emphatic expression to his
views concerning the recruiting
campaign of the Irish party. At
various times we have given
space to the expressions of Bishop
O'Dwyer, of Limerick, whose
forceful denunciation of the re-
cruiting campaign has attracted
the attention not only of Irish
Americans, but all those looking
on with a political if not a patri-
otto interest in the Irish situation.
The new Viceroy of Ireland,
Lord Wimborne, is demanding
thirty-fve thousand more Irish
men for the English army. Ten
thousand of these, he declared,
should be furnished before the
close Of November. The utter
ances of Bishop Foley and Bishop
O'Dwyer are re-echoed through
out Ireland. The "disinterested
imperialism" as Bishop O'Dwyer
characterizes the policy of T. P.
O'Connor and John Redmond,
can have no interest for the youth
of Ireland who gave their express
sion of disapproval in their desire
to migrate to America, but who
were forbidden to do so. The
defense of the realm act" is a
powerful weapon in the hands of
the English government in it's de-
sire to throttle the expression of
those unfavorable to the recruit
ing campaign.
Each week our pages contain
accounts of the arrests made in
Ireland under this mischievous
act, but here and there we find
strong men like Bishop Foley and
Bishop O'Dwyer, breaking their
silence and at the risk of arrest
and imprisonment, denouncing
the recruiting campaign. 1t
certainly seems like the hand of
Fate and an evidence of the work
of Providence to find the Irish
clergy directing their charges to
fight for Ireland alone and to de-
mand Irish independence and
Irish thrift.
More than century has passed
since the British government set
about to cajole and beguile the
clergy into belief that the only
thing for them to do was to advise
the support of nefarious act of
the Union.

themselves and trouble, if not dis
aster to their country. This same
paper declares further that the
point of view of the Bishops is
not the point of view of the VI
stermen and the Unionist party
whose business it is to see that
the act does not come into opera
ton at all. Thus we have pre-
sented for consideration the mod
crate view of the Protestant
Bishop of Dublin and the extreme
and characteristic view of the VI
ster Unionists and nowhere is
there semblance or an opportu-
nifty for the development Of the
Irish national life. There is but
one prospect, and that is the pros
pect of Ireland Province of Bri-
tain, with no such opportunity
for national autonomy as is grant
ed to one of the counties in any
state of the American Union.
Certain it is that the Imperialistic
policy of Great Britain with Ire
land as part of the federation
would by no means grant to Ire
land as much political individual
ity as is granted to any one of the
states of America.
For centuries the eyes of the
Irish people have been fixed upon
London. They have looked to
London for the realization of their
hopes. Too often has it happened
as it has in the present instance,
that England has drawn polite
ions from Ireland, taken them
to London where they become so
filled with the spirit Of English
Imperialism that they could see
nothing excepting through I'm
perialistic glasses. The Irish peo-
pie must turn their gaze inward
and homeward, their lot is not
hopeless and never will be, as long
as the spark of pure Irish patriot
ism burns unsel6shly in the
breast of those interested in solv-
ing her questions, not only in
London, but in Ireland. True
enough, and sad enough, Lon
don has turned the hearts
and the heads of men who
were in position to do much for
Ireland but it has not been able
to crush out the spirit of Irish
nationality, a spirit which needs
Ireland a nation in which to as
sert itself, apart from any circum-
stances of the Federated Principle
of Home Rule.

world has heretofore been be-
tween America as producer and
England as carrier and distrib-
utter of commercial products. Our
commerce has been carried on
English ships. The "divine
right of kings" has been asserted
by the guardians of English pi-
racy upon the high seas with the
same fervent belief that the So
called divine right was asserted in
centuries past. 1t would not be
supposed that Congress will have
much trouble in disposing of the
question as to whether or not Bri-
fish orders in Council should have
the effect of destroying if not en-
tirely superseding international
law as applied to commerce on the
high seas. Neither would it be
supposed that it would take long
to dispose of the question as to
whether or not international law
could be invoked speedily in be-
half of American commerce which
now is suffering destruction as a
result of English piracy. AS now
constituted, it is plain that Eng
fish supremacy of the seas is vi
tai to British national life. If
by so. injuring or Gripping the
sea-going commerce Of America,
the United States can be kept
from being serious contender in
the markets of the world, so much
the better is it for English COM
mercial supremacy. Protests
have been made and they have
availed nothing. The State De-
partment, as we'll as the American
ambassador in London, have had
their protests answered by the re-
cent seizure of a ship carrying one
million dollars in gold between
the traders in New York and Hol-
land. The ship was seized, gold
con6scated with the excuse that
the gold was destined to find its
way into Germany. American
shipping interests have been pro-
voked almost to the point of be-
lieving that there was a secret un-
Outstanding between the State
Department and certain represen-
tatives of the British government
and that protests were nothing
more than polite formalities. How
different in 1872 when we dared
to physically assert our rights, or
again in 1858 when a commander
of an American warship threat
ened to open fire upon a foreign
vessel which had ON board nat
uralized citizen of the United
States. American ships have
been constantly watched in nett
trail waters. They have been ia
ken without the formality of the
prize court. Cargoes of various
kinds have been confscated with
an explanation that had only
small semblance of truth and ex-
cuses given which seemed for
American consumption only. The
burden is upon Congress to de-
fine i'll unmistakable terms firmly
and once and for all the respected
position which by right belongs
to the American flag upon the
high seas. We, of America, at
the present time know of but one
war; that is the war waged
against American commerce by
Great Britain. The results which
have attended this war have been
very disastrous to American ship
ping and more disastrous to all
opinions of the neutrality which
we would like to maintain as a
people and our neutrality is OPP
posed to such concessions to
Great Britain, as have been ex-
hibited in Our milk and water pro-
tests against offences against
American commerce.

already sent out ballots and the ballot

The run-off campaign thus far has

with the campaign that preceded the

of election day interest is growing a
bit more lively.

Owing to the very limited time in
which to operate. neither of the four
candidates for statewide office could
make a secondary statewide campaign
in person, and much of their work is
being done by trusted and energetic
supporters in different localities.
Just how the vote in the second pri-

owing to what is an apparent state
OF apathy which exists towards these
run-off contests. 1t is probable that it
will fall at least 20 per cent in voting
