pie have waged an uncompromising
resistance, SO that freedom in Ireland
might not be put out of sight," and
in all the troubled centuries from the
time of Agricola to this day, the Irish
people have never sought to impose
a yoke of tyranny upon other people
or to build empires, but have sought
simply their own freedom and inde-
pendence.
Some years ago read an extract
from speech attributed to the elo.
quent Senator Bob Taylor, of Tennes.
see, whose service here gave glory to
this Senate. He said:
IF were a sculptor would chisel
from the marble my ideal of hero.
I would make 1t the figure of an Irish
man sacrificing his hopes and his life
on the altar of his country; and I
would carve on it's pedestal the name
of Robert Emmet.
IF were a painter, would make
my canvas eloquent with the deeds of
the bravest people who ever lived,
whose proud spirit no power can ever
conquer, and whose loyalty and devo-
tion to the hopes of free government
no tyrant can ever crush. And
would write under the picture, Ire.
land
IF 1 were poet would melt the
world to tears with the pathos of my
song. I would touch the heart of hu-
manity with the mournful melody Of
Ireland's wrongs and Erin's woes. I
would weave the shamrock into gar
lands Of glory for the Emerald Isle,
the land Of heroes, the nursery of
liberty. Tortured in dungeons and
murdered on scaffolds, robbed Of the
fruits Of their sweat and toll, scourged
by famine and plundered by the avar.
ice-of heartless power, driven like the
leaves of autumn, before the keen
winter winds, this sturdy race of
Erin's sons and daughters have scat.
tered over the face of the earth
homeless only in the land of their
nativity, but princes and lords in every
other land where merit is the meas.
ure of men,
In conclusion I wish to say that
am very much in favor of the passage
of this resolution requesting the Presi
dent, through diplomatic channels, to
ask Great Britain to exercise elem
ency in the treatment of Irish politi
cal prisoners, and also express the
hope that in dealing with Sir Roger
Easement Great Britain will be wise
enough to see that she cannot get g
place in the sun" by snuffing out the
lights of the world.

A. P. A. orators and editors spend
most of their time and energies try
ing to prove that the Catholic Church
is opposed to education for the masses.
This absurd fallacy finds its base in
an erroneous understanding of the
Catholic attitude toward the public
school system.
The Church does not object to this
system because it is opposed to popu-
lar education, but it believes that the
child should have religious educa.
tion, which the public school cannot
give.
The Test of Sincerity.
AS proof of their sincerity Catholics
pay their taxes to the state for the
purpose Of supporting public schools
in which Protestant children are edu-
Gated, and levy special school tax
against themselves in order to give
their children what they consider
proper religious training
Criticism Of our public school sys-
tenn or any other American institution,
Is not incompatible with patriotism.
Freedom of speech and press gives all
citizens the right to express their can.
did opinion on such matters. Criti
cism is not to be feared 1t tends to
correct defects and improve the stand
ard of excellence.
Parish schools cost American Cath
olics $10,000,OOO per annum.
But for these schools, Protestants
would be paying more taxes and II
would cost many additional millions tc
provide buildings for the pupils now
attending religious schools.
Instead Of condemning Catholics
Protestants should feel sense ol
gratitude for this relief from higher
taxes.
II their enemies could show tina
parish schools do not educate, do no
prepare the future citizen for his sta
tion In life, their protest would not b.
unreasonable. But in view Of the fac
that pupils Of both systems must NEE
each other in competition for honor.
in every field of endeavor, reveals thu
utter absurdity of the A. p. A. con
tention.
Each system needs the other. Com
petition is good for both, and tend,
to raise the standard of education ant
make public and parish schools fa
better than either would be withou
the other.
No Catholic would handicap hi
child by giving it an inferior educa
tion, and neither would Protes
tant.
The state is forbidden to establish
any church or interfere with the re
! ligious rights of the individual. TIL
Constitution bars religious instruction
in public schools.
Both public and parish schools IA
far short of perfection, but their graf
} yates never find the instruction the
} receive a handicap in the battle {
, life. Fighting side by side they a
tain the highest honors in theolog.

Take Your Choice.
John D. Rockefeller is a product of
one system, and Thomas F. Ryan is
graduate of the other.
Ex-Justice Hughes, of the United
States Supreme Court, received his pre-.
liminary education in public schools,
while Chief Justice White got his start
in the parish school.
The Catholic education did not pre-.
vent Joseph Tumulty from becoming
private secretary to tho President of
the United States, nor did it prevent
the late DR.. John B. Murphy of Chi.
cago from becoming the greatest sur
geon of our time.
The Universities of Paris, Salerno,
Oxford and Cambridge were founded
by the Catholic Church in the thir.
teenth century.
In the fourteenth century she estab.
lished the Universities of Rome, Dub.
lin, Cologne, Heidelberg and others.
In all the centuries of the Christian
era her priests have been recognized
as the best educated men of their
day.
Today her scholars, her scientists,
divide honors with the greatest men
of the world. Among these we find
the names of Pasteur, Madam Curie
and Marconi.
Among the master painters of the
world she placed the name of Raphael,
Murillo, Rembrandt, Rubens, and Da
Vinci.
Among her immortal poets we find
the names Of Dante, Dryden, Pope and
Shakespeare. 1t was Of Shakespeare
that Ingersoll said, "The imagination
had a stage in Shakespeare's brain,
whereon were set the scenes that live
between the morn of laughter and the
night Of tears, and where his players
bodied forth the false and true, the
joys and griefs, the careless shadows
dHu LlC lIuBlC uCcpS VI lIlc. FROM
Shakespeare's brain there was poured
a Niagara of gems spanned by Fancy's
seven-hued arch. AS a drop of dew
contains the image of the earth and
sky, 80 all there is Of life was mir
rored forth in Shakespeare's BRAIN"
Americas Debt.
= America owes much to Catholic ex-
plorers-the torch bearers of civiliza-
tion. Without their names and record
of gallant deeds the story of this re-
public could not be told. Here they
are: Columbus, De Soto, Joliet, Mar
quette and De La Salle
A Catholic education did not keep
Charles Carroll of Carrolton, from
adding his name to the American Dec
laration of independence, nor prevent
General Phil. Sheridan from becoming
one Of the greatest soldiers of the
Republic.
Catholic education never made q
traitor to the Stars and Stripes. This

'St. Patrick's Chapel Fund

Rev. Father c. F. Cremin, who has |
worked so hard in the interest of St.
Patrick's Chapel in the past several
weeks, reports to the Irish Standard
that he has had excellent success in
his work and that now the treasurer
has nearly $4,000 of the necessary
$4,000. Father Cremin further states
that this is the last week of collec.

the balance will soon be made up, and
anyone wishing to further the good
work along can send their donations
to Father Cremin, at The st. Paul
Seminary, Groveland Park, and the
donors will receive the proper credit
and publicity. If any of the readers
of the Irish Standard have failed to
find their name among the many gen.

TWO STATEMENTS WORTH READING

A press dispatch from Mexico City,
under date of August 80, says:
General Carranza, in a decree
made public today, announced the ma
tionalization of property Of the Cath
olic Church in Mexico. The churches
will be nominally controlled by the
clergy. The Government, however,
reserves the right to police them and
prevent them from being used for any
purposes other than prescribed by
law. The Government also reserves
the right to discontinue their use as
places of worship after one years
services.
"In taking this step, the first chief
declared he was only reviving the de-
cree promulgated in 1859. The new
order involves all property national
lied under the Juarez law and loaned
to the Catholic Church or other re-
ligious bodies or ceded after the pro.
mitigation Of the decree. The Depart.
ment Of Finance will take charge of
the property and see that it is cared
for. The Department of Gobernacion
will control the opening of new
churches"
The Washington Saturday Evening
Star, on it's religious page, states "s
number Of letters have Just been re
ceived from Presbyterian mission
aries, throwing interesting light OF
the situation"
One says, IF there ever was tim,
when the truths of Christianity need
ed to be set before the Mexican pee
pie it is now. So by precept and ez
ample we expect to keep on in tn
work until circumstances force us t,
leave, and am hoping that hour will
not come. Send us reinforcements
there is no use to wait for calm
