THE IRISH CAUSE

Five years ago home rule would
have been perfectly satisfactory for
Ireland, but not now. Never again,
The Irish believe England has broken
her promises and they will not trust
her in the future" said Right Rev
erend Louis S. Walsh, D. D., bishop
of Portland. speaking on the Irish
question Sunday evening at the Au-
gusta Opera house. Bishop Walsh
stated his belief that the whole trou-
BILE between England and Ireland at
present is due to the failure Of Eng
land to put into operation the home
rule bill which was passed by Parlia-
mentiin 1914. This bill was designed
to make ireland free but not indie
pendent, that is, to allow Ireland to
administer her own affairs while re-
naming a part of the British en-
pire. AS time has gone on it has be-
come apparent. in the Irish viewpoint,
that the British government does not
intend to let the home rule bill be-
come operative and hence the demand
and determination for an ipdepend-
ent Irish republic has arisen.
Bishop Walsh is an eloquent and
pleasing speaker and was heard with
close attention by an audience which
comfortably filled the Opera house
Enthusiasm for the subject of his
address was evidenced by frequent
outbursts of applause.
stephen ]. Hegarty presided at the
meeting and several prominent citi-
Zens were seated on the stage with
the speaker. Previous to the bishops
address the children Of ST. Mary's
parish choir sang patriotic songs and
an orchestra played several selections.
Bishop Walsh spoke in part as fol-
lows:
IF the Irish question affected only
Ireland it would be important; if it
affected only the British empire or the
whole of Europe it would be impor-
tant; but the Irish people and those
Of Irish descent are so scattered that
the Irish question is a worldwide
question. There are about 80 mil
lions of people throughout the world
who belong to the Irish race: there
fore the Irish question includes much
more than the four millions of peo-
pie in Ireland
ireland is about the size Of Maine
but has 80 counties and four million
people while Maine has 16 counties

and about 100000 people. The cli-
mate is good if one does not mind
rain. The Irish call it heavenly dew
and it makes everything green except
the people. Ireland has many good
harbors but they are all empty; it
has many resources and good water
power but they are not developed.
The people are gay, happy and lib
erty-loving, but there is not much for
them to do except agriculture"
Bishop Walsh told of his first visit
to Ireland in 1883 shortly after the
first attempt had been made to try
to give the island home rule. The
bill, sponsored by Gladstone, failed
of adoption and Immediately, said
Bishop Walsh. England put Ireland
under coercion. He went through sew
eral counties and saw evidence of
harshness everywhere. Houses were
damaged and deserted and the people
scattered. He had followed the his
tory and vicissitudes of Ireland close
ly since then, he said. and short
time ago made another trip to the
island. The change was marvellous.
The people were progressing well and
were contented and in good circum-
stances. The trouble between Eng
land and Ireland which is causing so
much concern today is the result of
things that have happened since the
war. -
Freedom for Ireland is the only
safety for England If Ireland is not
safe the British empire cannot live"
continued Bishop Walsh. THE Irish
are true national people, more so
than any race that I know of in the
world.

time the Irish question was distinct

unfortunately too often been mixed
up"
Bishop Walsh narrated the histori-
cal events that have stood out in the
history of England and Ireland as
they related to the question Of indie
pendence. In 1880 the first real at
tempt was made to give Ireland
home rule, through the influence of
Gladstone, but the attempt was I'M
successful. Various attempts were
made successfully until 1914 when a
satisfactory bill was passed. When
the war broke out, said the bishop.
England decided not to put the law
into effect until the war ended. The
Irish now believe that she does not
intend to give home rule at all, and
in 1913 vote was taken in which
three-fourths of the population of
Ireland decided for an independent
republic. In 1914 such a thing was
not thought of and would not have
received favor. Ireland has now set
up a government of her own and re-

The speaker explained the position
of Ulster by stating the supposititious
case of one of Names counties wish
ing to secede from the rest of the
State. And at that, he said, lit is
only half of Ulster that is refractory
1t is claimed that England listens to
the voice of this minority and for

Ireland thinks her case is exactly
parallel to that of the American col
onies in 1875. Ireland accepted
President Wilson's principle of self
determination for small nations and
wants the United States to recog-
nize it as applying to the case of
Ireland. England has not recognized
it and that is the cause of the pres
ent trouble.
to the great Protestant leaders of
Ireland, who, he said, have been far
more numerous than the Catholic
leaders. He also said that since 1929
England has been fair, just and gen.
erous to the Catholic church, and
that the church has had no better
friend. If England and Ireland can
be friends, Ireland will be of the
greatest help to England, he said.
Ireland asks America to show her
friendship and sympathy and if pos
sible to recognize Ireland as an indie
pendent nation.
Bishop Walsh read the resolution
Of sympathy for Ireland which has
recently been passed by the House
committee on foreign relations OF the
United States government. He de-
clared that the English people and
the Scotch people have asked the
British government to grant Ireland
her independence, but the govern
ment has steadily refused in the face
of the widespread popular demand.
He closed with a reference to the SOL
diers of Irish descent who went from
America and Australia to France to
fight the battles of England and de-
clared that had they not gone, Eng
land would have been utterly defeat
ed by Germany. When the war
closed, America modestly declined to
take any Of the booty, England took
all her own share and that Of Am
erica besides. Now she refuses to
grant independence to Ireland be-
cause she refuses to recognize the
principle of determination.
