Dur- his brilliant discourse Mr. Devoy licted the success of the German in the present conflict and pro- bled the future success of the Isle firin. Mr. Devoy under the pices of the Emmett club of this spoke @ speaker, despite his seventy- : a lecturer who keeps audience in the heights of en- plasm at all times. His voice is pleasing tone, and he speaks P 2 firmness and throws so much Eht into his remarks, that his mers are at all times attentive in ipation of what is to follow each jence. An over enthusiastic mem- ©of the audience several times frupted the speaker by his re- ks of approval. idge John Walsh, presided at the meeting, was g indisposed and Thomas J. th acted in the capacity of chair- « Mr. Smith spoke of the work the Irish are doing in this coun- and the love which is still in hearts for the old country. His oduction of the pricipal speaker, is as good an Irishman as ever ped into this country, and as good erican as ever lived,” brought B rounds of applause that lasted several minutes. Makes Issue With Redmond. [t Devoe said in part: “I in- [l this evening to deal in facts as exist at present, and what the o need expect if England is vic- jous in the present war. The press that if England and the Allies Successful in the war, it will mean er conditions in Ireland, and the ping of Home Rule. The press fes that England is fighting for tho ity cause of small countries, prers England has broken more fes than any countries under the , especially when Irishmen were cerned. I want at this time to 6 issue with the statements of n Redmond when he said on the r of the House of Commons that jper cent. of the Irish were in favor n English victory. The Irish ideas e never identical with those of land, and are further away now n they were over 740 years ago.

Po- jcal conditions of olden days still dr. Devoy told of the agitation rted by Daniel O'Connell and by piftone, the founder of the Irish gue.

He scored the remarks of Redmond that if the Irish would fight for England at the present time, it would place the latter in Erin’s indebtness that would, at the close of the conflict force her to make Ireland a self governing na- tion. Mr. Devoy spoke of the bravery of the Irish troops in the French war and quoted one of Iingland’s most famous warriors, who, in a history written on the subject, paid a glow ing tribute to the valor of thes troops in the French and Crimean wars. While FEngland has always claimed the victory at Waterloo when Napoleon was shoon of his honors, the speaker placed the credit for the honors to the Germans, who, unde General Blucher, were of much as sistance to the Duke of Wellington when it seemed as if the latter was doomed. For fourteen years after this battle regardless of the bravery of the Irish troops, Ireland never re- ceived any recognition in parliament and he cited one instance when the Irish troops had taken one of the strong French forts single handed the English troops failed to come to their aid, and as a result many of these brave men were slaughtered. The speaker dwelt on the Fenian movement briefly, and said that the late William H. Gladstone had said that it was the cause of bringing to- gether the Catholics and Protestants. The movement was a failure, but it tended to prove that if the Irish had sufficient arms they would be able to English rule out of Ireland. Devoy rapped the ‘London Times,” which, he said, was the great- est enemy Ireland has ever had. tle spoke of the favorable manner in which Gladstone had commented on the speech before parliament by Dan- iel O’Connell in the interest of the Irish cause. Gladstone later presented a bill asking for the abolishment of the bill requiring Catholics and non- comformists to pay taxes for the support of the established church cf England. He said it appeared how- ever that the speech of O'Connell had not had much of an effect on Glad- stone, and when such a friend of Ireland showed this attitude, then there was but little justice to De e pected from England. He said the claims of Redmond that England would abolish all opposition to the Home_Rule bill for Irish support was all “bosh,” as the British had never glven Ireland anything, and never would until she is a weaker country or is forced to do so. o “Can’t Get America’s Aid. Much applause accompanied the re- marks of the speaker when he said, “England wants Ame an assistan and she won’'t get it.” The Englisn press at all times shows selfish no- tions toward that country, and there are but few of the workmen who, in any manner, favor Home Rule in Ireland, Mr. Devoe said. “The Home Rule bill was the great est piece of legislative jugglery that the world has ever heard of, the speaker said. ‘““Who has ever heard of congress passing a bill to throw dust in the people’s eyes and then sus- pend it? England's government has robbed the people and makes it hard for them to live. The Protestants i Ireland are brought up with the be- lief that if Home Rule to govern the country, the Pope will then rule the world. “If at the end of the war England will have the power, and we don't know whether it will or not, the Home Rule can be amended to suit government and make conditions not much better than at present. For inr- stance, a government will be estab- lished in Dublin, and it will mean that the people will be forced to pay two sets of taxes on their mail mat- ter, for all the mail that enters or leaves Ireland and will be under English supervision, for which the | Irish will have to pay. For this my dear people Mr. Redmond wants the Irishman to stick by England.’ Mr. Devoy spoke of the work of John Stuart Parnell and deplored the fact that he did not have the oppor- tunity that presented itself to Red- mond at the opening of\the wz “Premier Asquith knew where Red- mond stood at the beginning of the conflict” he said. “Redmond nced not have stood up in the House of Com- mons to pledge the support of the Irish to England.

The Oli blet Company, Columbus, O the | to do was to tell Premier Asquith that it would be necessary for him to put the matter up to the Irisa people, for he knew that 37,000 Cath- olics would refuse to go to the front. It would have brought England facc to face with conditions that confront. it now and would aid Ireland in the demand for Home Rule. Instead Mr. Redmond stood on the floor of the House that day, and pledged the whole army of Ireland not for Ire- land but for England. Anyone who has read of Parnell knows what he would have done if they don’t they should read his history” Mr. Devoy said that recently a friend of his, who had been in Ire- land, discussed the attitude of Red- mond with John Dillon and the latter said that at the beginning of the war the Redmond felt the war would not last three months and the Germans would be beaten, but they placed their money on the wrong horse, this time, (applause.) He was glad Redmond had failed to take advantage of the Home Rule bill for with him so doing it would have meant that Irish gen- erosity would have been the means of 500,000 Irishmen going to the front and this would have aided greatly in British progre Teelingly the incident where 7 in battle because Eritish troops w peaker told a recent 0 Irish troops fell the assistance of s not forthcoming. In this fight the speaker lost 2 nephew, “the first of the family of Devoy ever to fight for England.” The speaker deplored the fact that many of the Irish troops now at the front are badly disabled, and will receive no pension when the war is ended. “If more go to the front they will receive the same treatment, so what are we to expect in the cause of justice?” he asked. Mr. Devoy spoke of the changes in government that occur with frequency in English rule, and prophesied that the Tories will again come into power, which would mean the overthrow of the Home Rule bill. He said it was often claimed that Ireland was not capable of self government, but evi- dences of its wonderful progress in agriculture in the past few years dis- pelled this, and, without Ireland, England would be reduced to a third- class nation. “Germany Would Help Treland.” “We are told that Germany would oppress Ireland,” he continued. “Wh should she? It would be to her inter- ests to aid Ircland. Germany is pledged in this war, and Germany has never broken its faith with this Irish people and will keep its word.” He said the notices published in the press of the atrocities committed in B gium were false, he having received word from a justice of the supreme court of New York who has a sistcr who is a nun in that country, that the treatment of the German officers and police is courteous and polite towards the Sisters of Mer Conditions un- der the Germans were as good as they had ever heen. she wrote. He said there are over volunteers ready to re: famous conscription bill, and if these men have to die they prefer to wet the soil of their own country Wwith their blood, rather than the soil of France or Belgium. He said that while the conscription bill has been killed for a time it will come up again. Mr. Devoy spoke of the new Ger- man submarines which he said will greatly deplete the British navy, and which was the invention of an Irish- man, the late John P. Holland. By these Ireland will be able to secure aid from Germany, assisted by the Zep- pelins, which will drop superior of- ficers into that country to assist in the cause, he said. Ple said that prior to the death of Mr. Holland, England had purchased eight submarines, and when the inventor had learned where they were going he “fixed” them—and as a result they are now at the boi- tom of the sea. He predicted that the Germans will eventually invade England and cap- ture London, and not until then will “Ireland take its place among the nations of the world.” The speaker called attention to a meeting to be held in New ork in March, when the real conditions in Ireland will be made known. It i planned to make the meeting the greatest since 1881, and plans will be made for an organization which will protect Ireland from the treachery of England, he said. *It is hoped that the meeting will have its effect on Washington, D. C., where it adly needed just now,” Mr. Devoy said in closing. A banquet was held at the close of the meeting at the Hotel York, for members of the club, the speaker and invited guests. Mr. Devoy was pre- sented with $50 in gold, but he re- fused to accept it except on condi- tion that it be added to the Clan-na- Gael fund.
