next few years, insofar as the
Government is able to make this
unhappy condition prevail. No
inkling has been dropped by the
supposed leader of the Irish Party
or by the Chief Secretary of Ire
land that could be construed as
a reason for not tapping this
available source of strength. To
those who care to understand, the
facts are plain and the answer
simple.
Two weeks ago an Irish youth
was arrested under the Defense
of the Realm Act and brought be-
fore a magistrate for remarking
to an Irish Policeman that he
should be in the trenches instead
of walking around with nothing
to do. This is typical reason for
maintaining the Irish Constabul-
airy as it is maintained at the
present time.

JUSTICE GAvEGAN GLAD TO SAY
AYE" TO- PRINCIPLES.

Supreme Court Justice Gavegan was
the next speaker. He spoke solemn
ly and in the midst of an impressive
silence. He said:
II am not public speaker, but if
I were able to utter only one word
would want that one word to be pres
emit in answer to the rollcall of this
convention, or aye to the declara-
ton Of principles which has been read
there this afternoon.
II want to make one thing very
plain. Some Of us accidental Amer
icans,' as one of our speakers has
characterized US 1rish-Americans born
in this country, have been asked why
we should meet to consider the fate
Of Ireland at such a critical time as
this. l have heard Irish-Americans
termed hyphenated Americans.
II Foe Invaded America.
Il ask Of those who inquire this
one question: What would they do If
q foreign foe invaded America and
caused them to Zee to another land?
Would they forever forget the United
States? Would they feel that in their
loyalty to their own country there
could be no room for sympathy to
the land Of their birth?

WHY SHOULD NOT IRE.
LAND LIVE UNDER SEP
ARATE NATION
HOOD?

The Race Convention in New
York City has brought this ques-
ton prominently before the world.
In view of the conflict now rag
ing in Europe, the time is now
opportune. Why not a republic
on Irish soil2 The Irish people
are certainly as homogeneous as
the people Of Belgium, Holland
or Switzerland. The Irish are
essentially a Republican people.
This was shown in the spirit of
the ancient Brehon Laws, in their
ancient form of electing their
kings and chiefs. Their genius
thrives under a Republican form
of government. Witness the
prosperity and development of the
Irish race in the United States.

VICTOR HERBERT MAKES RING.
ING ADDRESS AGAINST ENG.
LiSH MISRULE IN ERIN.

Following musical program
which opened the session at 2 p. M,
1t was announced by the chairman Of
the committee on nominations that
Justice John w. Golf was unable to
accept the presidency Of the organiza.
ton.
The nominating committee then re.
ported that Victor Herbert was unan-
imously suggested by the committee
for the presidency. When Mr.. Her.
bert's name was placed before the
convention he was unanimously elect
ed, and when he walked out on the
stage every one in tho audience rose
to cheer him.
The composer was smiling broadly
and apparently was fired with the en-.
thusiasm Of the gathering.
The Irish standard. [volume] (Minneapolis, Minn. ;) 1886-1920, 1916-03-11

1t is not possible to enumerate
the entire list of prominent men
and women who took part in this
national convention. A perusal
of the list above gives an idea of
the personnel of those who took
part. The delegates were care
fully scrutinized and it was i'm
possible to get into the conven-
ton unless one brought proper
credentials.
Some days before the conven-
ton was called. an attempt was
made to maliga its spirit and les
sen its Importance by the calling
of a sort of sham meeting by a
few pro-British sympathizers in
New York City.
The accounts of this pro-Brit-
ish meeting contained in the press
dispatches have been proven
false and the names of the sign
ers of these vicious articles were
found to be unauthentic. But
even this was without effect.
The national convention of the
Irish Race was one of the most
important conventions that have
taken place in this country in
years. 1t has proven conclusively
that the national spirit of Ireland
is vigorous and potent in spite of
all the efforts made to crush it.
The hostility to England's rule in
Ireland has been maintained in
the face of famine, in the face of
persecution. This hostility can
not be transformed into loyalty
by war in which Ireland has no
interest. The principles adopted
by the convention have made this
clear to the world
