General Strike Vote On.

Even now a referendum vote is be-
ing taken regarding a general strike
in the event of the passage OF the
conscription bill. In French Canada
these two factions, the peasantry and
the Labor Party, are uniting over the
secession issue. and everywhere talk
is heard of establishing a republic in
Lower Canada.
In Quebec and Montreal the Irish
population, which is largely descended
from the rebel Irish, who settled there
in the time of the Fenian trouble, is
violently antiEnglish and strongly in
favor of u republic. The old Fenian
ties with France give them a tradi-
tional love for the French population,
and the Irish rebellion last year has
done nothing to increase their love
for England. 1t is a common express
sion among them that England will
yet reap the whirlwind that she sowed
in the Fenian deportations"
Recruiting in French Canada has,
ever since the beginning of the war,
indicated that something was wrong.
Although Canada as a whole has con-
tributed some 100000 men to the al
lied cause, Quebec has only sent
about 1000, according to the official
figures, which, as far as can be as
certained, takes no account OF the
wholesale desertions that have taken
place among the French troops. Sew
eral regiments have been disbanded
in order to bring the others up to full
strength, and each time transfers of
this kind take place the men desert
by the score.
France Greatly Concerned.
1t is learned on high authority that
France is seriously concerned over
the situation, and that any attempt of
the Canadian authorities to enforce
conscription will be received with
mixed feelings in France. That
trouble is anticipated by the Dominion
Government is indicated in the state
ment of a young Englishman who re-
Gently came from the United States
to join the aviation corps at Val Car
tier camp:
"The fellows here confidently expect
that they will first see action against
the French Canadians, who, it is
thought, have for some time past been
secretly storing arms. From what /
can hear, the whole province of Que.
bee is seething with revolt, and may,
| break out in revolution at any mo-,
ment"
Montreal, July 16.-Signs multiply
that the struggle here against con-
scription will be bitter. Yesterday

PRAYER FOR AMERICA

o Mary Immaculate! guard with
loving care this country dedicated to
thee Let thy purity keep it pure
Watch over it's institutions. AS thou
are the Refuge of all sinners, this
country is the refuge Of the exile and
the oppressed. Guide it ever in the
way of peace. Let it never forget it's
high vocation to teach all the nations
of the world, by word and example,
the principles of well regulated liberty
and reverence for the rights of men.
Let not it's prosperity be it's ruin.
Alas! many of it's children, who know
not what they do are walking in un-
certain paths, which are dark and lead
them away from truth. Mother of all,
pray for us and plead for them, that
we, thy children, may love and adore
thy adorable Son with more fervent
faith; and that those who are wan.
dering in errors ways may, through
thy intercession, return to the old fold
of the true Shepherd-to thy Son, our
Savior, Jesus Christ. Amen.

USUAL ENGLISH POLICY

Even before the war began com
plants had been made regarding the
hardships imposed on Irish contractors
for Army orders, owing to the lack of
receiving depot, or even an informa
tion bureau, in this country. Irish in
tending contractors had to go to Eng
land to inspect patterns and send their
samples across Channel to be tested,
a course involving much unnecessary
delay and expense. The Government
have been repeatedly pressed to estab-
lish a receiving depot for Army con-
tracts in Dublin. but have refused to
do so, pleading various himsy excuses
The latest plea was put in last week,
when the Parliamentary representa-
tive OF the War Office stated that
there was no existing building in Dub
lin suitable for the purpose, a pre-
posterous excuse, and that suitable
premises could not be built until after
the war. The Government have given
way, however, on smaller point, and
have arranged for the opening of a
supplies depot and information bureau
in Oriel House, Westland Row, where
patterns of articles required for the
War Office can be inspected by intend
ing contractors, who will also receive
information as to terms, materials and
so forth

IRISH MARINE COMES BACK.

There's little spot in Ireland that
Michael Mcnamara had in his ''moind s
eye" for long time-thirty years, in
fact At that time Michael was obey
ing orders, drilling, campaigning and
doing the 10l things that fall to the
lot Of the American marine. Michael
finished his time, retiring with the
rank of "sarjint major, no less," and
went back to that little spot in County
Mayo. Then came participation of the
United States in the war. Did Michael
stay retired? He did not? He came
right back on the steamship st. Louis,
paving his own fare, and went directly
to the United States marine corps
headquarters to volunteer his services.
Mcnamara could have signed up with
some Irish regiment for, despite his
fifty-odd years, he is still "foine
broth av a boy" Instead, he braved
the submarines to fight under the flag
that for thirty years he had called his
own,

Utah Discovered by a Franciscan
Priest in 1776.

Who discovered Utah? Ask the
question of the first dozen men you
meet on the streets and it is safe to
say that eleven of them, if not the
entire dozen, would promptly answer,
"Why Brigham Young" says the Salt
Lake Telegram.
But the statement is erroneous. 1t
was Brigham Young and the Mormon
pioneer who first settled in Utah, but
Father Silvestre Velez de Escalante, a
Franciscan priest, was the first white
man to rset his eyes on Utah. And
the date was not 1847 the year of the
Mormon pioneers. 1t was on August
90, 177G, a little more than month
after our forefathers had signed that
immortal declaration that he and his
little band Of followers first saw the
placid waters Of Utah lake.
OF the Escalante expedition the late
Bishop Scanlon said in his work on
"The Catholic Church in Utah" "Of
these also were the Franciscan Priests,
Silvestre Velez de Escalante and Anas-
tasaio Dominguez, who left Santa Fe
July S's Lt'O, AoI ChC pun pOoC VI CA-
ploring the land and discovering a
direct route to Monterey, in Alta, Cal
'They explored portions of Colo
RADIO, entered Utah, and on the 23d
day of August, first of white men,
looked out upon the placid waters of
Utah lake. They charted the newly
explored land, described the tribes
they had visited, the botany of the
country, named the rivers and noun
tains and bequeathed to us an accur-
ate map Of the country as it then was.
'They did more. On their return to
Santa Fe in January, 1777, they wrote
out history Of their expedition which
carried them to the Grand Canyon of
Arizona and to the Zuni and Hopi vii
lagos. They described Salt Lake. gave
the names of the tribes living on its
shores, and left to the people of Utah
today an invaluable treatise on the
habits and manners of the Indians
around Utah and Salt Lake."

Will Not Have Partition.

The Nationalists of Ireland will not
have partition at any price or in any
shape or form. In unmistakable terms
they declared their adherence of it
last year, and they are now even more
emphatic in their detestation of it.
In some cases the chairmen of coun-
ty councils have said that they will
not support partition; the chairman
of one council has stated that he will
vote in accordance with the wishes of
the majority; but, at the same time,
he will stick to the United Irish
League, which really means the party
who have already supported parti-
tion. The council in question passed
a resolution against partition some
time ago. Whatever these chairmen
may ultimately do, it is plain that the
people; those who are electors, and
those who are not, are dead against
any dismemberment of the country.
A settlement based on such lines
would solve nothing. 1t would intensi-
fly feeling throughout the country and
lead to another agitation fiercer than
any which has hitherto taken place.

sIhM FElh VICTORY.
London Newspapers Call Third EIec.
ton to Parliament British Menace.

London, july 21-The election Of Ed
ward de Valera as member OF parlia.
ment for East Clare, the third Sinn
Fciner to be returned to parliament of
late, is treated as an event of great
political consequence by the morning
papers, which devote considerable
srace to the victory.
The tendency of the unionist press
rejecting their advices from Belfast
and Dublin, is to emphasize what it al
ways contended-the folly of the gov
ernment in lberating Sim Feiner pris-
oners and refraining from dealing with
revoluntary talk and acts as such
would be dealt with in England.
Situation Called Grave.
These papers regard the situation as
gravely threatening, for they see moth.
ing in the Sim Fein movement but re-
bellion.
The liberal press also is alarmed
but rather for the position of the off
cial nationalist party and for the pros
pect for the establishment of constitu
tional home rule.
