 ing in appearance, with Q national gift for oratory, it was to have been expected that it would impress all present even if they were hardened by long experience to justsuch trials, which were, as still happens at the present time, simply lagalized form to justify murder and a rupture of the code Thou shalt not kilT' society loves formalities."
 Owing to the fact that Emmet was such as we stated, it is no wonder that religion and romance have done It is no wonder that the very men oftentimes, who worship at his memory in outward shows, by their very lives are living reputation 0 fthe freedom for which he sought, for the real En- met and the Emmet they understand are as different as chalk and cheese.
 The dream of Emmet of a free peo- pie, mentally and economically free free alike from landlordism and imper- ialism, is a dream that seems to be as far off realization as ever.
 For the man and the lesson of the mans life is most shamefully hidden, or most atrociously misunderstood. The nation that he had in mind was a hot ho had q in mind was to spring from the ragged populace of the cities and the equally ragged peasantry of the fields, it was to be free and open,-clear and pure, as fresh and as inspiring as a spring among the beautiful dells of Killarney. There is tide ill the affairs of men 1 which,
 Taken at the flood leads on to fortune, Omitted all the voyage of their life Is bound in shadows and in miseries. Eternal spirit of the chainless mind, Greatest in dungeons, Liberty thou art! Oh how full of briars is this working day world.
 The dream of Emmet's will never die and the foes that were his must, whatever be the name of the exploiters, all eventually fall before the immor- tality of the dreamer.
 (The following is quoted from page ITS. Vol. VIII, Encyclopaedia Britan- nica. Ed.)
 "i;obert E,nmet was born in Dublin on March 4th ITS. He was a school fellow of the poet Thomas Moore. and his senior by a year at Trinity College, Dublin Both were members of the Historical Society, and the great cham pions of the popular side. In 179S Emmet was expelled from the Univer- sity, on the ground of being connected with the association of the United to the Continent, and remained there until 1902. when he returned secretly to Dublin, and endeavored to plan d general Irish revolution. On the 20 day of July 1903, deeming that the time had come to execute his scheme, he made an attempt to seize the arsenal and castle of Dublin; but the mob which he headed scarcely achieved so much as a serious riot, for they dis persed at the first military volley. Elm met fled to the Wicklow mountains, and perceived that success was now impossible, resolved to escape to the Continent; but, contrary to the advice of his friends, he attempted to have a last interview with the lady to whom he was attached, daughter ofiCurran, the celebrated barrister. The delay proved fatal to him.
 SHe was apprehended, and committed for trial on the charge of high treason.

of Education from 1896 to 1900 and
in 1901 helped to draft the revised
charter of the greater city under
which the schools operated, 1--WE had
only one object in mind-to get the
very best men there were. That is the
only worthy object for any school
board to entertain. If you have to go
far afield to get the best men. why
then, go far afeld. That's what we
did, and that's why we got the results
we did. That is what the present
board should do.
III don't know as I personally favor
open discussion of the matter by the
board. 1t opens the way for mere
bad. But certainly the matter is not
one for the Mayors consideration. The
decision is one of vast Importance
more SO than ever to-day, with the re-
construction period cominp and all the
problems of Americanization looming
ahead, centreing in this city. I doubt
if the Mayor has proper time to give
to such matter. l am not sure, either,
that he has the special information
necessary After all, in the last analy.-
sis you've got to trust your board.
The secret of the thing lies in making
your board realize the tremendous re-
sponsibility of the choice it is max

Mr.. Taft added that, owing to the

Thomas NJ. Ballet, dean of New York
University, pointed out, although a
somewhat different sort of ability is
needed, the city superintendent of the
New York schools must, to be success
ful, possess quite as much ability as
the president of any great university.
And the practical problem for the
Board Of Education is to find such

"The promotion of local candidates."
he went on, "has often been accom-

of Philadelphia, of Baltimore and of
some smaller cities. Occasionally

remark of the Mayor, if quoted cor

Bernard Gallagher,
Political Power in
Brooklyn, Dies
Builder Was Close Friend
of Mclaughlin, McCar-
rem and McCooey

Bernard Gallagher, who welded
powerful though indirect political in
fluence in Brooklyn for many years,
died on Friday at his home, 905 st.
Marks Avenue, that borough. He was
seventy-nne years old, native OF
County Tyrone, Ireland. and resident
of this country since 1845. AS a boy,
he lived in Williamsburg when it was
remote village.
After learning the trade Of cooper
ing Gallagher apprenticed himself to
Owen McCarren, a carpenter and the
father of the late Patrick H. McCar-
rem. In 1851 he started an independent
business as a builder and was highly
successful. Among the buildings erect
ed by him ore the Brooklyn Post
office, the Memorial Arch in Prospect
Park, the Nassau Trust Company
Building, the Manufacturers Trust
Company Building, the Kings County
Savings Bank Building, Washington
and Fulton markets, Manhattan; the
Queens County Courthouse and the
annex to the Williamsburg Savings
Bank, at Broadway and briggs Avenue.
The last named building was the last
one he erected before his retirement, in
1906.
Although his hand was seldom WIS.,
ible, Barney Gallagher was credited by
the politically wise with guiding the
larger political issues Of the borough
and playing the role Of a Warwick
generally. He was on intimate terms
with Hugh Mclaughlin, John M. Nc
Cooey, Senator McCarren and most of
the other Democratic leaders of the
last two generations.
At the time Of his death he was
president and director Of the Brook
lyn, Queens County & Suburban Rail-
road, president and a director of the
Metropolitan Engineering Company, a
director of the Brooklyn Heights Rail-
way Company, the Brooklyn Rapid
Transit Company, where he succeeded
the late E. H. Hartman; the Edison
Electric Illuminating Company of
Brooklyn, the Kings County Electric
LlSnC ana IOWcI OOHHpaAy IHS N1a
facturers' Trust Company, the New
York Consolidated Railway Company
and the New York Municipal Railway
Corporation.
MIR. Gallagher is survived by his
widow, Mrs. Mary E. Gallagher; his
son, George B. Gallagher, and four
daug ghters, Mrs. Frank Dempsey and
the Misses Augusta c., Irene F. and
Rose c. Gallagher. There are five
grandchildren.

value of her lire in the worlds ex-
change. She lacks cooperation among
her many political groups to facilitate
strong national policy. Her people
lack the education to permit intelli-
gent, independent judgment or to in
sure popular demand for action with
an eye alone to the country's welfare.
Italy has been beset by all the most
active and potent of the unscrupulous
pacifst and defeatist agents. France
had her Caillaux, America her La Fol-
lette, but Italy has Giolitti, supple
| mented by cross currents of opinion
and anti-war influence, German and So
cialist. These are enough to distract
country having traditions of nation
alism far more deeply seated than hers.
We must take into account Ita!y's
vacant national mind, her limited edu-
cation and her commercial drift at the
time of entering the war if we would
do justice through sensing the COM
plexity of her situation and the cx-
treme difficulties patriots faced in
treating with Germany. And funda-
mental to such understanding, it is to
be remembered, first, that Italy's per-
centage Of illiteracy is enormously
higher than that of her allies, prob
ably higher than that of any white
ing Mexicans, and, second, that Italian
politics are drawn on personal rather
than on broad party lines and are so
intricate as to confuse the most intel
ligent. In politics, therefore, is neither
eight nor an inspiration for her people.
The issues of the country are not
clearly defined between the two great
parties as with us. Parliament breaks
into groups, following some leader
with an individual Interpretation of
given question, perhaps broad, perhaps
narrow and trivial.
At present, for instance, there are
about ten such groups, running from
three distinct Socialist groups on the
extreme left to the Conservatives on
the extreme right. Other currents
flow and ebb, sometimes merging, but
often turbulently following parallel
channels. North and South Italians
differ in temperament, training and
viewpoint among themselves quite
apart from the other wider influences
which operate impartially throughout
the land
But among these stand always three
irreconcilable and militant groups,
whose main and war issue never
changes, namely:
First, the political group, following
the now happily dwindling Golitti,
that has been playing Germany's game
In Italy twenty years or more:
Second. the Socialist element, that
despises the national idea in all coun-
tries, and, since the Allies are fighting
for nationalism argues that the pro-
letariat has nothing to gain by any
war and advises throwing down arms
and letting happen what may.
Third, the ancient Clerical party,
that sees in the House of Hapsburg
and traditions and views the possible
ascendancy of democracy with aver
| sion.
New-York tribune., 1918-04-21
Even Sonnino Was
Actively Opposed

Even during the days of Foreign
Minister Sonnino, whose patriotic and
inflexible stand for Italian rights
against Austrias swagger and Ger
many's intrigue forced the denuncia-
ton of the Triple Alliance on May 3,
1915, there was an opposing military
caste that had been trained in German
ideals, which snapped it's heels TO-
gether, saluted la maronette, quite
Boche-like, and felt that the victory
OF the Allies meant the overthrow Of
miltarism.
For thirty years Italy has been ac
customed to consider Germany a
friend, has been artfully coached by
the Boche to consider her as an offset
to French rivalry, and so completely
had she believed in the sincerity of
her interest, beginning with the sly
and rejected suggestion Of Bismarck
that she annex much Balkan land, that
tor Germany's sake she had swallowed
Austrla's company, although she knew
when she drove Austria out of Italy
between 184S and 1866 that Austria
was the bltterest enemy of liberalism
in all Europe.
1t was in 1881, when France pro-
asd ong vewed sd By ay S THn

! Italy first turned toward inviting the
arms of Germany. And when the
! cloudiness of Great Britain toward her
Irlpoli enterprise gave doubt whether
indeed any friendship for her existed
outside the Kaisers realm, sho re-
signed herself to his ardent, suffocat
| ing embrace.
The Tunis incident occasioned Italy's
joining the Triple Alliance in 1882 and
the British attitude aprQpos Tripo]i
cemented the Teuton partnership which
IN 19l2 she had been on the point Of
breaking. Germany played her part
adroitly. Whenever ruffied waters
caused Italy to question French inten-
tions or to doubt England's previously
we'll attested friendship, there was al
ways at the psychological moment the
subtle German adviser to insinuate
and to slandcr and to promise. Finallv
Germany had cnmeshed her politically.
industrially and financially. Arjsto..
cratic and commercial Italy looked
upon Germany as a mighty friend and
protector.
German money developed Italv,s
shipping, her banks, and, through the
latter, her manufacturing. When the
war came, thrc9quartcrs of Italy's ex-
port trade was in German hands and
Germany largely controlled her indus
tries. and over gevcnty-hvc thousand
Germans were living in Italy, all close
~ associated with her commercial life

lnsidious Charges
Against America

That America has no soldiers in
Italy and will send nonc as she does
not intend to help her; that America is
opposed to all monarchcal institutions
and is therefore really opposed to Italy,
that Americas encouragement made
Bolshevism possible, that to under
mine the existing conditions of society
will lead to world chaos-these are

with alarm upon the dissemination of
vulgarizing American ideals.
Another phase of this propaganda
criticises Italy to her allies. slurrinr
the Latin characteristics, asserting that
Italy is animated by a spirit of greed
and predicting likely treachery. But
the most serious part of it plays upon
the hopes and hearts Of the peasant
tolk, who are terrorized by exaggerated
accounts of losses and hardships suf-
tered by them as compared with the
alleged Immunity enjoyed by their al
lies. They are urged to compromise
to avoid complete ruin.
Another form of this drive into the
country is the personal activity among
the peasant homes, where contrasts
with others are made to the Italian SOL
dier's disadvantage. Thus to create
discomfort the peasants are told that
American and English soldiers are
making big money and that their fami
lies are we'll cared for, while Italian
families are not given enough to exist
on; that the wife Of an Italian soldier
gets only 80 lire a month and an Amer
