TALKS ON IRELAND

There was a meeting at the Opera
house Tuesday night in behalf of the
Irish Republic The hall was full to
capacity. The speakers were Dr. f. A.
Cantrell of Los Angeles and Mr.. Peter
Golden of Cork, Ireland, a cousin of
Lord Mayor MacSwiney, who is on a
hunger strike in an English prison.
f. l.. Kelley presided and introduced
the speakers.
DR.. Cantrell said that the Irish re-
public is functioning in three-fourthS
of Ireland and the traditional Ameri-
can policy during all our history has
been to recognize governments repre-
senting the people such as this; that
in diplomacy no nation can take of
Tense at such action. He said that
America owes a greater debt to Ire
land than it ever did to any other for
eign nation; that our government
pledged the people of America and its
soldiers that the recent war was waged
to establish Self-determination and to
free the small oppressed nations and
that there is still time to keep that
sacred pledge; England is facing bank
ruptcy and is out in the markets OF
the world seeking to get control of the
basic industries. He made it clear that
the struggle in Ireland is not a relig-
ious struggle. He asserted that Eng
land wants her colonies to produce raw
material and buy back finished prod
ucts and enforces this by laws; that
for 700 years England has systematic
ally kept down Irish industrial devel-
opment. He punCtured the British
propaganda that Ireland stabbed the
allies in the back stating that without
conscription Ireland raised three times
as many soldiers as America according
to population. He gave fine talk,
tinged now and then with fire. He held
the audience in the palm of his hand
and gave Scathing denunciation OF
British rule and an eloquent plea for
recognition of the Irish republic. lie
said that he is a Protestant and has
not drop of Irish blood in him and
that his ancestors have been in Amer
ica for 800 years.
Mr.. Golden's talk was different. He
spoke of personal experience and made
terrific arraignment of present Brit
ish rule in Ireland.
He sad ihat En- gland controlled the
news both in and out of Ireland and
always kept up a propaganda OF mis-
representation He gave a humorous
picture of England's attempts to eXtin-
gush the Irish nationality by national
schools in the past century. He gave
an account of the present activities OF
the "black and tan" who he said are
the offsprings of London's prisons and
underworld, paid $5 per day and turn
ed loose in Ireland to provoke a revolt,
and gave an account of the Irish re-
public courts in operation. Mr.. Golden
looks like poet of the William Butler
Yeats school with a spiritual counten-
ance, long hair and big windsor tie. He
rose at times in flights of beautiful de
clamation and closed with a feryent
appeal for monetary aid for the strug-
Cling nation.
The talks lasted from s,l5 until aft
er 1880 and not ten people of the big
audience stirred from their seats

TWENTY-FIVE YEARS AGO

The following letter was written, as
the date shows, in 1865, to Mr.. White
who was then in the army. Interest
attaches to it for the reason that Mr.
Kuehn's bank failed soon afterward,
and he died, many think by his own
hand. 1t was he who built what is
now known as the Lakeside House.
Manitowoc, Wis, May 4, 1865
My dear Mr.. White:
My wife has requested me to mail
her letter written in answer of yours
of the 9th inst, and | avail myself of
the opportunity to add few gossipng
lines.
Since your departure from here
times have undergone very great
change; our national affairs have i'm
proved rapidly, and it is my firm belief
that your own personal eXertionS have
largely contributed to this much de
sired result, but our financial and com
mercial relations are in a very mixed
condition. The collapse of the REBEL
ion has sent gold down and as a neces-
sary consequence values of all kinds
are badly deranged. Wood, lumber
shingles, fish, etc, and in fact every
thing, farmers produce Except hay
and oats) are very much lower than
what they were a month ago. Cedar
posts, of which Manitowoc has its pro-
portion, do not even pay the cost OF
transportation into Chicago. One
case in point occurred, where cargo
was shipped from place north of here
at 31a cents per piece and the cargo
sold at 3 cents in Chicago, thus leaving
the Captain la cent short ON his
freight, which he proposes to collect
of the shipper, who thus loses not only
the original cost of the posts, but "
cent besides.
1t will perhaps be of interest to you
to hear that the dabolical plot to as
sassinate our lamented presented has
been hatched out by the Copperheads
of Manitowoc. You may well throw
up your hands in horror and ask the
source whence this terrible intelligence
is derived, and it will astonsh you still
more when tel you that to our dis
tinguished fellow citizcn-the coun-
try is indebted for discovering this
awful secret.
The second National German shoot
ing match is to take place this year at
the City of Bremen, and Mantowoc
will be represented there by VIM. Rahr
Il. Carus, H. Berner, Captain Hecker,
Captain Borcherdt and others.
Our mutual friend Kemper swears
terribly about cordwo0d and with
good reason, because at present it is
perfect drug at Chicago and he has
about 1000 cords on hand.
Rudolph and his lady are well, Mr.
Hottelman has resigned as deputy col
lector and has gone to Washington to
expose some awful frauds on the par'
Of his superiors. Mr.. Sibree has beer
elected Justice Of the Peace and to-day
is trying his maiden case.
Try and get furlough soon ant
come home for a few months and vi
will endeavor to make yours and you
wife's visit as pleasant as possible.
Yours truly and sincerely,
l Charles kuehn.
