Near to Treason
subterfuge of socialistic Opposition to
Government Rooted in Base Selfish
ness. .

The resolutions adopted by the Ma
tional Convention of Socialists are
close to treason. When American oiti-
zens band themselves together to con-
tinuous active and public opposition to
the war and attempt to- instruct their
representatives in legislative bodies to
vote against all appropriations for mil
ltary or naval purposes, they have
formed a conspiracy against a govern
mental policy and should be promptly
prosecuted under the statutes
The resolutions are based on the
usual foolish philosophy of Socialism,
The theory that working men are not
concerned with the principles of hui
mainly but are solely interested in the
welfare of their class" is monstrous
doctrine. Men are more than pieces
of industrial machinery. If this So
cialist doctrine was followed to it's log
ical conclusion there would be no civil.
iZation left on earth. 1t is the incarna-
ton of sellishness. 1t is a diabolical
doctrine. The whole set of resolutions
runs contrary to every instinct Of com.
mon humanity. Reduced to it's last
lesson it is a gospel of hate.
The delegates who adopted these
resolutions are not only false to Amer.
lea but are enemies of the whole hu.
man race. They should be promptly
and effectively suppressed.

SiNN FEM CONVENTION IN
DUBLIN.

Dublin, April 19.-The Sim Fein
Convention met at the Mansion House
with Count Plunkett presiding. Two
hundred and fifty seven Irish public
boards had been invited to send dele
gates, but two hundred of them de-
clined to do so. The Convention, how
ever, was crowded.
The Convention proclaimed Ireland
a separate Nation and demanded rep.
resentation at the Peace Conference.
Arthur Griffith moved resolution
claiming the application to Ireland of
President Wilson's principle of nation
al freedom.
The Dublin Trades Council, which
is mainly with Liberty Hall, was espe
cially represented at the conference
and Endorsed it's declarations. The
Convention added no elements to
those previously opposed to John Red

CATHOLIC. ACTIVITY IN CHINA,

The Foreign Mission Seminary at
Maryknoll has received a report of
Catholic activities in China for the
past year, and remarks smaller in.
crease of Christians than usual.
For several years past the annual
gain has been about 100000 souls, but
this past year it was only 10000, and
the cause is traceable to the war in
Europe, which has withdrawn mission
ers, kept others in the home lands, and
diminished the propaganda offerings
1t is interesting, however, to remark
that the number of Chinese native
priests has increased, so that at pres
ent they are 1923 as against 8O3 year
ago.

1850 Converted
Jesuits Have Done Great Work for
Faith in Alaska.

Now that Alaska has risen to the
dignity of a vicariate-apostolic, inter-
est in it's religious history is reawak-
ened. Christianity was introduced
there more than 100 years ago by Rus.
sian traders, and various missions
were established 1t was not the Cath
Ollie religion, however, but the Russian
orthodox faith.
The Catholic missionaries eventually
began work there, and it has resulted
in bringing into the church 1850 con-
verts, who constitute the present
Catholic population. All the missions
are in charge of the Jesuit Fathers, to
whom was assigned the difficult work
of building up the church among the
natives.
In 1916 there were % Jesuit priests,
10 Jesuit brothers, and 81 nuns of diff
ferent communities. The Sisters con-
duct four boarding schools, five day.

S|ander United

The "Messagero," of Rome, which
is always on the lookout for any in
formation which may not rebound to
the credit of the Holy See, announced
to it's readers that Archbishop Bon
zano Apostolic Delegate at Washing
ton, D. c., had forwarded in his re-
ports to the Secretariate of State
news of a very strong movement
among the Catholics of the United
States and Canada against the strict
ly neutral attitude of the Holy See
in face Of Germany's latest acts; they
demand that the Holy See pronounce
open sentence of condemnation And
the "Messaggero" concludes with a
suggestion that, failing in this, the
contributions from the Catholics of
the United States, so generous hith-
erto, will not be so generous in flu
ture. This last suggestion is un-
worthy Of notice-one would have
thought it unworthy of even the Mes
saggero"
The "Corriere d'ltalia'' comments
that no report has arrived at the Vat

part of American Catholics, and adds:

PATRIOTIC SPEECH BY
ARCHBISHOP IRELAND

To-day America is the ally of the
British Empire in one of the fercest
and most meaningful wars ever
known in the history of the human
race. Necessarily America takes
deepest concern in conditions of the
British Empire bearing upon the con-
duct and the outcome of this fearful
conflict. Victory for the British En-
pire is victory for America. Defeat
for the empire is defeat for America.
The two nations stand or fall to-
gether, with consequences for veal or
woe to both that stagger the mind in
the effort to grasp the hugeness of
possibilities of the one hypothesis or
the other.
America, for her own sake, for the
sake of the British Empire, asks that
Home Rule be given without further
delay to Ireland. No one knowing
the mind of America can mistake in
this regard it's wish and voice; no
one the serious preoccupation in
which it holds itself lest the refusal
of Home Rule to Ireland be further
continued. The need of the hour to
the British Empire for its strength
in the vigorous prosecution of the
war is internal peace and the unity
of all it's forces into oneness of life
and effort.
AS things are, a valuable part Of
the empire is aloof from the great
struggle. The men of Ireland are
needed to lend aid and comfort to its
army and its navy. The men of Ire
land should be so treated that they

MAJORITY RULE

a Principle Applied Everywhere But
in Ireland.
That masterful and logical maya
zine, ireland" which we cannot but
admire the more we know of it, says
the Standard and Times, takes up the
ruinous sophism which has created an
masquerade obstacle against 1reland's
progress, the shibboleth insisting on
unanimity ere home rule be put into
effect; and picks it to pieces, bit by
bit, by the logic of hard facts. The
rule of the majority is accepted as
good, it shows, except in Ireland.
There could be no such thing as ra-
tional government were it not for the
existence and recognition of that prin.
ciple. 1t is the keystone of the system
of parliamentary rule in all constitu-
tionally governed countries. Ireland
is the paradoxical exception. Over
there, ever since the poisoned spear
head of alien rule was introduced into
the body corporal the tyrannous and
abominable principle of divide ct i'm
pera" has been steadfastly applied, in
such a way as to reverse the rule of
justice and secure to the minority the
lawful rights and privileges of the ma
jority. With regard to the plea that
the law of home rule be held in a
state Of suspended animation until all
parties are agreed to abide by it, Ire
land" pungently says:
ireland has been steadfastly for
home rule for thirty years, in the
proportion of IS to II. No English
cause ever commanded such a major
ity, and no English victory was ever
vetoed for the want of such a major
ity. Does Ulster want to be governed
by England?' Not from Dublin, grant
ed, but by England?' Only when given
her own way. Failing that, rebellion
against the crown, or, in minor mat
tiers, as witness George Wyndham's
downfall, rebellion against her own
political friends. Home rule provides
for continued representation in the

will spring forward as one man in
fastening alacrity to the battlefelds,
over which hover such terrifying pos
sibilities.
1reland's bravery is not doubted.
Let it be launched forth in it's most
daring impetuosity into the fray to
bear aloft in victory, across every
peril, the banner of st. George.
With joyousness that words cannot
tell would America applaud such a
blessed achievement. America would
see in it new strength for the British
Empire, new strength too for her own
self, inasmuch as the deep sympathy
for Ireland vibrating in the hearts of
millions of her people would be
frightened into burning glow of sat-
isfaction that America is now the
ally Of an empire rising to the heights
of wholesouled generosity in award
ing to Ireland it's coveted dream of
centuries, and then with Ireland peace
full and happy there is consistency in
the pleas under which the British EN-
pire and America are waging war.
Those ideals are popular freedom,
the guardianship of smaller nations,
respect and reverence for aspirations
that neither time nor human power
can smother and kill. The Allied ma
lions inscribe those ideals in their
proclamations and unsheathe their
| swords to encourage and guard them.
Meanwhile, what can be said in
response to the tannts of enemy SOW
ereignties who ask why Ireland is
still the victim of the oppression of
| ages, still the complainant that her
| imperishable yearnings for the sun
shine of democracy upon her fields
are unheard, unsatisfied? One act of
| supreme generosity on the part Of the
| British Parliament will give to Ire
land peace and joyousness and tie her
in gratitude to the hopes and desti-
MES of the empire.
| Why not at once speak forth that
act?
| There is, it is said, one obstacle
the unwillingness of a portion of the
population of Ulster to trust the vast
majority of the. population of Ire
land. Guarantees have beer given
that rights shall be safeguarded, that
perils of local liberty shall find no
room under the operations of the act
granting Home Rule.
| Guarantees to this end the majority
do not refuse. Perils that are feared
find no foundation in the words or
the doings Of the majority. Is it logi
cal that a minority, however, com
paratively small should overrule
the majority, however comparatively
large? In this hypothesis there nevel
will be possible in any land plan OF
home rule or regime of unsullied
democracy.
There should be no divided Ireland
Ireland exists in it's entirety or does
not at all exist. Some day the gaping
sore of dissatisfied Ireland will be
healed. Home Rule will be granted
Why not grant it today, when the
tneed Of heartfelt cooperation be
tween the population of Ireland ant
that of England is crying need
when the gift of Home Rule would be
ing gratitude?
This is what Americans wish for
this is what Americans feel They
themselves similarly situated would
gladly do what today they ask thu
English Parliament to do.
