"When Alexander Graham Bell was strng

basis, when telephone stock was nearly worth
less. did the omniscient federal government
think it necessary to intervene, to take the in
itial risk! Certainly not. and we thank HEAVIER
today that it did not take the risk.
"When, in the history of the United States
has the public money been made pneumatic
cushion for business risk! When, as the fed
eral treasury was facing deficit, and heroic
measures were necessary to meet huge military
and naval demands, has the government dareC
to suggest assuming task too risky even fol
private capital! When has the entire popua

concern too venturesome for millionaires tC

Capital says the president, cannot ac-
complish this great task of sudden Is the
capital of the government so different from
other capital7 Are the proceeds of radical in
ternal taxation less truly capital than private
resources! And are we to think for an instant
that the presidents amateur cabinet is more
competent to it's self-assigned task than the
keenest business minds of the country? Give
capital fair chance, Mr.. Wilson. Has it ever

Long usurpation Of that right by
foreign people and Government has
not extineuished that right, nor
can it ever be extineuished except
by the destruction of the Irish
people"
They thoroughly realized what
would be the consequences. They
had read it in the deeds Of the past
for they had seen marked in every
page of the blood stained history of
their country, the price to be paid
by those who would dare assert in
action the truth of their poets words.
And long a brave and lovely
land
Freedom and Nationhood demand
Be sure the Great God never
planned
For slumberlng slaves ID home so
grand"
Fully alive to the perlls of the
situation they shrank not from the
task before them but generously
and cheerfully devoted their lives
to its accomplishment, for they
considered their share to the cause
of lreland's freedom. and surely a
cause for which such men will
shed their blood so readily is bound
in the end to be triumphant.
Such men can not fail. Whether
they live or die they win, for, even
in death. they command success
from graves believed with the hot
tears of the noblest of their race
who, on Bonded knees prayerfully
vow for themselves and their mold
in future generations, that they will
prove worthy of their sacrifice, as
"On the cause must 60
/ Amid JOY or veal or woe
! Till they make their Isle.

Blood Shed for ireland

martyrs of old attracted attention.
and enlinked to sacred cause the
sympathy of hostile men. and made
converts of them. Recently the eyes
OF the world were focused on the
little Green Isle across the water
where brave men were struggling
unto death for the sacred cause of
Liberty. In a materialistic age that
worships at the shrine of success, it
is not surprising that the the efforts
Of those patriots are REGARDED by
many not only as III timed, and i'll
advised. but as the height Of folly
yet it is just such struggles for
freedom that inspire poets and
nOveIists to write about them and
move sculptors to carve the images
OF their heroes, and fashion monu
mentS to their memory,
To understand the full sienfi-
canoe of the Irish uprising one
must not only know the history of
Ireland and especially the story of
her treatment in recent times. but
he must also be acquainted with
the lofty ideals and high purposes
of those noble souls who asserted
with their life's blood their Cod
given right to freedom In this
latter connection il may be pertinent
to quote from the late Canon
Sheehan's last work called the
Graves of KilmOrna.
In this book, the author speaking
through his hero, referring to
politicians who were demoralizing
the people Of Ireland says You
and | will be shot; Our bodies will
be stretched out on the Irish heather;
our blood will have soaked back
into our mothers breast But the
very people that applauded Hollo
/ way last week will take up our
lacerated bodies and weep over
them, and cary them down with
every honor to our graves; and the
women who shouted aloud and
waved their handkerchiefs yester-
day will snip away bits of cloth
from our tattered uniforms and
keep them as relics for their
! children. And in after years, Irish
men will come from over the seas
and find out where Colgan and
Halpin fell, and carry away with
them to Mexico or Australia a bit
| of the heather which or dead
bodies pressed and the political
degradation of the people which
we shall have preached against
with our gaping wounds will shame
the nation into at least paroxysm
of patriotism once again
In a lecture the martyred young
leader, Pearse had beautifully said
Freedom is so splendid a thing
that one can not worthily state il
in the terms of definition, one
has to write it in some flaming
symbol or to sing il in music
vicious with the uproar of heaven.
A Danton and a Mitchell can
speak more adequately OF freedom
than Voltaire and a Burke for
they have drunk more deeply of
that wine with which God inebriates
the vOltaries of vision. But even
the sublimest things, the Trinity
and the incarnation can be stated
in terms of philosophy, and it is
needful to do this now and then,
though such a statement in no wise
affects the spiritual fact which one
either feels or does not feel, So it is
sometimes necessary to state what
nationality is, what freedom though
ones statement may not reveal the
awful beauty Of his nations soul to
single man or move single
village to put up it's barricade."
