The difficulty of securing army re-
crafts from among the Irish people of
Canada was strikingly evident at re.
cent meeting held in Gallery Square,
Montreal, which was addressed by
high officials of the Dominion govern
mont. But few recruits were enlisted
Notwithstanding eloquent appeals in
Which it was declared that the best
means OF aiding the cause of Ireland
was for lrislmen to enlist for service
in a war waged to protect small ma
tions. The Chief Justice of Canada,
Sir Charles Fitzpatrick, uttered some
OF the thread-barc platitudes that Red
mond and others have used in trying
TO delude lrishmen into the belief that
the welfare Of ireland depends on the
sacrifice of their lives to uphold the
British llag-the flag which is SYM
bolic of the government that has
caused untold misery to poor Ireland.

AMERICAS FIRST PRIEST.
Father Las casas, Great Historian
and Liberator, First Priest Or
dained in America.

1t will be $50 years this month
since the death in Madrid at the age
of 90 of Bartolome de Las Casas, the
first priest ordained in America and
the man whose lifelong labors exclud.
ed slavery from the South American
continent.
Las Casas shines forth from the
chronicler's page as the most COM
manding benevolent figure of the
Spanish Conquest. In the words of
Sir Arthur Helps this was one Of
those few lives that are beyond biog-
raphy, and require history to be
written in order to illustrate them.'
Oh aristocratic birth. the son of one
Of Columbus companions, he settled
in Hispaniola, or Hayti, in 1902.
There he was ordained about 1910.
When Father Antonio Montesino de.
livered his great sermon at San Do
mingo in 1911 in which the Spanish
rulers were flayed for their wicked
HESS loWdfu tne Indians, Las CaSaS
was profoundly impressed.
In Cardinal Ximenes, regent of
Spain, he found an upholder. Some
thing in the way of restrictive laws
was accomplished. 1t was an uphill
battle that did not achieve full sue
cess until 1887 when Pope Paul III
issued his edict forbidding slavery.
The History of the Indians" com.
pleted in Las Casas' declining years,
is our greatest authority for events in
the New World up to the year 1922.
Its publication at Madrid in five vol
umes in 1875 fittingly commemorated
the 4OOth anniversary of the birth OF
the great historian and liberator.

The Rev. William V. Reedy, of
Rockford, ILL.,, distinguished himself
one day last week at the most spec
tacular fire Buffalo, y. Y, has had in
years, when a spark from a passing
locomotive ignited the lumber yards
OF the Atlantic Lumber Company at
1865 Seneca street, entailing a total
loss OF more than 100000.
Father Reedy, who is in Buffalo, the
guest of his brothers, Captain Daniel
Reedy and John Reedy of Engine Com
pany No. 35, jumped on the hose cart
when his brothers company was
called out to fight the conflagration
and the Rockford priest rode with
his brothers to the fire and through
out the battle with the flames he re-
manned close to them, so that he might
be OF assistance if needed. When
Fire Chief Bernard y. O'Connell pro-
nounced the fire under control, Father
Reedy made tour of the ambulances
which had arrived from every hospital
in Buffalo and he assisted the sur
geons to care for several firemen who
were overcome by the heat and smoke.

DELAY NATIONAL
GUARD PROVISION

Washington. June 2o.-Administra-
ton leaders in Congress today decided
not to seek immediate action on a reso-
luton to provide for making the Nation
al Guard eligible for foreign service
fearing that such a step at this time
might be construed by the Mexican gov
eminent as warlike act. Enough reg
ulars are available now to deal with
any emergency across the Mexican bor-
der. and if it should become necessary
to send in guardsmen the resolution
then could be rushed through.
