THE REVOLT IN
IRELAND.

Dispatches from London received
carly yesterday were to the effect
that the revolt in Dublin had collaps,
cd. Later kilograms, however, dis
sipated such hopes, as it was shown
that conditions were as serious as
ever in the capital city.
Despite the assertions of John Red
mond and other Nationalist leaders
that their organization has nothing
to do with the revolt in Ireland, the
revolution seems to be gaining
strength. The placing of the entire
island under martial law shows the
seriousness of the situation, and Pre-.
mier Asquith admitted in the House
OF Commons last night that the
movement was spreading in the west
and that Dublin was still cut off from
communication The Premier also
stated that the rebels still hold i'm.
portant buildings in Dublin.
British men-of-war are now off the
city ready to lombard it if such 6
desperate course becomes necessary
Ireland has for centuries smartec
under British rule. Some place the
blame upon agitators in the Emerald
Isle, while others are convinced that
England has ever been responsible
for the discomfort in Erin. Macaulay
in his introduction to his history o.
England calls Ireland a witheret
branch of the British Empire. made
so by unwise legislation. He also at
tributes the loss of North America tt
a weak ministry.

ECHO OF HALF
A CENTURY AGO.

The Richmond Timcs-Dlspatch III
clippirgs from its files of April 2s'
1866, reproduces the following:
The proposition of United States
Senator Wade, of Ohio, to take the
citv and County of Alexandra oacE
into the District of Columbia mas
greatly alarmed the people OF Alex
andria, and the Common Council mas
appointed committee to go to WASH
inqton and make earnest protest, be-
fore the Senate committee to whom
the matter has been referred.
Senator Wade was what was known
in his day as radical, on the order
of Owen Lovejoy,. Charles Sumner
Thaddeus Stevens and others, inns
movement for retrocession in 1866
was conceived in Alexandria by a
number of men, mostly carpetbag-
rers, who had come here at the be-
ginning of the civil war and who held
certain positions. Alexandrlans VINO
had been south during the four years
conflict having returned the previous
wear, at the election in 1866, (eiec-
tions were held yearly at that time'
ousted every one from his position.
This class was naturally sore at be-
ing relegated to private life, and q
rctrocession movement was Matched
at one of their lodges of sorrow. q
number of Alexandrians who had al
6liated with the carpet baggers dur
ing the war mingled with those who
sought revenge in retrocesslon, Du
the movement, though espoused oN
such men as Senator Wade, dlct
aborning, as it has periodically ever
since.
There arc still a few people in thu
CITY who dream Alexandria would I'M
prove under the government OF th'
District of Columbia. From the for
nation of the Federal government W
to 1916 it composed part of the DIS
trict, and was of no commercial I'M
portance until it was returned to th'
Old Dominion from which it wa:
taken.
Several years have elapsed since re

little support in New England, where
Hughes sentiment is more generally
prevalent The great majority of the
New York delegates are: also in oppo-
.sition to the man from Oyster Bay,
and will divide their votes between
Root and Hughes. This seems to be
Che case also in New Jersey. A battle
royal is to be fought out in Pennsyl-
.vania, with the probability that the
delegation will be split between; the
Roosevelt and anti-Roosevelt forces.
This is the last of the really impor-
tant States to make a choice, Burton
will be supported by Ohio, Fairbanks
by Indiana and Kentucky, Sherman
by Illinois, Ford by Michigan, Lafol-
lette by Wisconsin and North Dakota,
Cummins by Iowa, Minnesota AMI
some small Western delegations. The
Southern States, whose representa-
ton has been largely reduced, will
peddle out their votes to their best
advantage, and the Far West will
scatter it's strength not great numeri-
cally among all the favorites.
AS the Philadelphia Record sug-
gests, there is nothing in this outlook
that seems particularly favorable to
the Colonel. Rejected by his own
State and New England, where his
clamorous campaign has been most
forcibly waged, he is not likely to
develop any great strength in the
Middle West, if one may judge by
recent occurrences. Either Justice
Hughes or some unobjectionable
Western favorite son, too colorless to
have excited any violent antagonism
thus seems to be more likely out
come of the convention, Apparently
the Old Guard has the situation well
in hand, and there will be no stamped
ing the very hard-headed bosses who
are now guiding the G. 0. P. destinies
just as they did in 1912

Harry NJ. Bassett, carpenter, 30
years old, of Richmond, will prob
ably lose the sight of his right eye
as {. result of being knocked down by
Il negro bcggar at Monroe and Broad
streets early yesterday morning. The
negro approached Bassett and ask
ed him for nickel, When the carp
enter turned him down, he struck him
a stiff blow with his fist in the face,
knocking him to the pavement. Bas-
sctt was taken to Virginia Hospita
in the city ambulance. 1t was stated
there today that the surgeons had
but little hope of saving the right
eye. The negro escaped in the dark,

THE JAPANESE PROTEST.
s(Baltinaore American)

q r. y H p 7 d.
Registered and active, although not
violent, the Japanese protest against
the immigration bill that would dis
criminate against the yellow races.
is something that should be faced in
a fair spirit by the American Congress
This is no petu1ent protest, no effort
to embarrass the government at a
tine when it has weighy international
problems to solve. 1t is the protest OF
a self-respecting people against need
less humiliation by legislation to the
prejudice of them as race.
The japanese government does not
seek to have the doors of the United
States thrown wide open. 1t does
not even seek to stimulate japanese
immigration to America. 1t simply
asks that the agreement under which
it has honorably worked in accord
with the United States, still be held
sufficient. This is to limit .immlgra-
ton from the japanese side-not
from this.
Japan has faithfully performed its
obligation and the gentlemen's agree
ment has been wholly satisfactory.
1t should continue to be so, and dis
elimination against the Japanese
should be avoided.

AMERICAN NEUTRALITY.
(Richmond Times-Disptch)


Assertions made by sympathizers
in this country with the Irish revolu-
ton now sporadicaiiy in progress, that
details of the plot, discovered by Of
ficers of the Secret 5ervice when they
arrested Wolf Won Igel and seized
his papers, were revealed by this
government to the British embassy,
are not yet verified. If they are true
however, the administration follow
cd exactly the proper course.
To use the soil of the United States
for initiating or supporting armed ex-
petitions against a nation with which
the United States is at peace is a
crime, punishable by fine and i'm
prisonment under the Federal laws
For this government itself to en-
courage such activities, or tolerate
them, or protect those who engage ir
them, would be to make itself a par,
ty to the offense, which in Won 1gePs
case It was undertaking to punish.
And another thing. If Won 1ge!
papers reveal the completely of any
persons in consppacies to violate
the neutrality laws, these person:
should be apprehended promptly.
We do not believe such activities art
approved by the great mass of Irish
!! Americans in this country, but in an,
event they must be suppressed.
