DOHERTY ADDRESS;
ST. PATRICkS' DAY
t~

At the ST. Patrick's day celebration
among other things, Attorney John
f. Doherty said:
ireland is one of the oldest nations
in the world Even before St. Patrick
she had federal form of government
and the ancient Brehan Laws of Ire
land have become the foundation OF
all modern civil Jurisprudence.
The world is indebted to Ireland for
the preservation of art, science, learn
ing and religion. In the. middle ages,
when continental Europe lay helpless
at the feet of the barbarian invaders,
Ireland alone repealed to those savage
tribes, and kept alive the lamp OF
Christian faith and learning. While
the old world was passing away, with
it's wealth and it's wisdom, Ireland
was the storehouse of the past and
the birth place of future civilization.
Ireland was, in those dark days the
university of Europe. And today, as
we gaze upon those venerable ruins
which still bear testimony of its
ancinet splendor, we can behold in
the Imagination, the busy thrOngs of
masters and scholars that made them
sanctuaries of religion and learning
in days of yore.
1t was then that Ireland won the
peerless title of "the land of saints
and scholars She sent her mission
aries of faith and learning to build
churches, schools and universities
throughout Europe and rejuvenated
Europe, by moulding those untutored
sons of the forest that settled in Eng
land, France, Germany and Italy, into
the most polished nations on earth.
The speaker concluded his address
by expressing the hope that ireland
may soon receive due recognition, as
a free and independent nation, and be
given the right which is being accord
ed to the other small nations, the
right to determine for herself the
form of government under which she
shall live.

commend it for what it has done inmv
case" said Hon. Archie r. Anderson
~ Houston, Ex-Sheriff of Harris
County, Texas, recently.
Mr.. Anderson is unQuestionablv not
only one Of the best known, but one
OF the most popular men that ever
held public Office in the Lone Star,
State. After serving as Deputy Sheriff
or Harris County for twelve years.
Mr.. Anderson was elected Chief of
Police of the city of Houston. He had
occupied this Office only a short time
when the Sheriff Of Harris County
died. Mr.. Anderson's friends persuad :
ed to make the race for the unexpired
term of Sheriff to which he was easily
elected. He was honored with re-elect-
ton seven different times and served
the people in this important office for
fifteen consecutive years. Four years
ago Mr.. Anderson declined re-
election and retired to pri-
vate life He case his lot among
the people of Houston and is large
property owner and foremost citizen
of this interesting and prosperous
city.
Il was in rundown condition, y
continued Mr. Anderson, land had no
appetite at all. l could hardly sleep at
night and never felt like getting up
in the mornings, was so tired l had
the worst form of indigestion, suffered
all the time from gas on my stomach
and was continually belching up un-
digested food. I had to take my coffee
without sugar, as when l drank it with
sugar, would just belch for hours.
would bloat and swell UP like I was
poisoned and suffered with neuralgia

seemed to help me only in a temper
airy way. just can't tell you how

up to the time | began taking Tanlac,
a few weeks ago.
when I read the testimonials of
some who had been relieved of trOu
bles like mine just felt like Icouldn't
make mistake by taking Tanlac and
it has done even more for me than |
had expected began to feel better
after taking my first bottle and have
just started on my third and I'm a
different man already. | sleep like a
log now and eat just any and every
thing | want without the slightest dis
comfort afterwards. | am glad to en-
dOrse Tanlac because it does the work
and I'm telling all my friends just
what I'm telling you. I never felt
better in my life than | do since TAX

IRISH QUESTION

and Stripes.
Yes, our country owes a debt OF
gratitude to ireland, and thank God
she never was in a better position to
pay it than she it today We have
paid our debt of gratitude to France
for the help she rendered us in the
Revolution. Today we are able to
pay our debt to Ireland, because we
have gone into this war, first to de-
fend our own national rights, and to
protect the lives Of our citizens both
on land and sea. But we have gone
into it also, in order that democray
that was given to us by Washington
and Lincoln. may be extended to all
the nations of the world both great
and small, and there is nothing
stronger in the fourteen points laid
down by our president than that very
theme; that Americas mission in
this war is to give liberty and indie
pendence to all nations, and that no
people must be compelled to remain
under a government not of their own
choice. And those fourteen points of
President Wilson have been accepted
by England and all the allied nations
as the basis of the peace settlement
which is now being arranged in
France, so that America and her
associates in the war have agreed in
principle to give Ireland the liberty
that is being given to Servia and
Armenia, to Belgim and to Poland,
to Schelswig Holstein and Solvakia,
and to all the downtrodden countries
of the world And if this freedom,
this self determination is not apple
to Ireland, the greatest and the oldest
of all the nations, then it is mere
pretence, mere mockery, it is by
pOcracy for us to claim that we are
fulfilling tn principles for which we
asked our dear boys to sacrifice their
young lives. Yes, and I will go further
and say, it is merely taking the auto
cratic crown from the head OF the
Kaiser and placing it on the horns
of John Bull.
And it is the duty of every fair
minded American citizen see to if
that no peace treaty shall he sigr"|
no league of nations ratified by our
American Congress, till tho principles
for which we entered the war, and fo1
which our boys fO""ht and - -
vindicaed, and Ireland, as we'll as H."
other small nations of the world be
accorded the right to determine e."
herself the form of government under
which she shall live.
An outline of Mr.. DOughtery's adj
dress will be published tomorrow.
