It thrillel me with joy to bear of the ringing of the church bells—Catholic and Protestant alike—when the news of Ladysmith’s relief was flashed under all the waves of the sea. A nation whose scns and daughters are patriotic and brave —whoare willing to go 13,000 miles and offer their lives to keep the flag in the air and their country on the map of the world —can never die.

Why should so many | liberty-loving Americans go wild over the narrowest patriarchal de+potiem on which the eun ever shone? Why - cheer the slave stealers 7 Why encourage slave masters who have made, and long again to make, the bloody whips to crash on the backs of helpless human beings? Why sympathize with lazy and indolent mea who compel their women to work in fields as the savage American aborigine does his squaw? Why should tbe Catholic Irishman be a pro-Boer?
