For the Caunse of Ireland, The annnal meeting of the Irish ) alleague of Towa was held h yesterday, the sessions bemng at the ora house. Delegates from all parts of the state began a: ing the hi before, but most of them came in on yesterday morning’s The local .committees met the gates at the depots with bands of music and escorted them to the several hotels. The morning session began at 11 o'clock. The opera house was decorated with the flags of Ireland and of America. Pictures of Parnell and a map of Ireland, surrounded by the faces of prominent Irish nationalists, were hung in prom- inent places. Upon the stage were seated Rev. Father MeMenomy, Mayor Chapman, Judge W. C. games, Rev. Father Healey, Hon, M. V. nnon, of I):\\'un]m|‘| 1 others. M. V. Gannon, president of the state ni; mnn ealled the meeting to order and introduced Mayor J. W. (Inynu:m who delivered the address of welcome. In hisopening he gave some touches to the land question, dwelling upon the i law, found in animal life, by which instinet ever demanded a loeal habitation, a home, a lodgment. With man this demand for a home of his own, s not only demanded by instinet, but instinet coupled with reason. The mention of the names of Parnell and of Gladstone drew forth enthusiastic ap- plause. In reviewing hastily the history of Ireland, he contrasted the statement that Ireland, centuries ago, had a par- linment, and now she had none. Such Dackward py was a suflicient com- ment on the tyranical policy ot England in its treatment of Iveland, The rest- lessness eaused by the national desire for home, and thelack of it in the old land has caused the Irish eyes to look toward ca the Uto of its Vs freedom inspired the wt of Parnell.

Speaking of the fear of home rule bringing re dis ons and strife, the ed such an idea, and decl believed that this woutd be the result of home rule, he should oppose it non then reviewed mul discus stone’s measure. He was glad thut, l\ll Parnell wanted the home rale bill to go through without reference to the land purchase question. The speaker thought the land purchase phase demanded too much of Ireland. The measure might go through the commons, but wounld ploh.l- bly be defeated in the house of Jords, He made a fling at “Mrs, Brown,” and predicted that the day of redemption for reland was uhl\vnmg His " address called forth enthusiastic applause. At its close the choosing of a temporary chairman resulted in the choice of Rev. M. 1, of Des Moines, who was nom- inated by J. H. McPartland, of Burling- ton, In taking the chair, he made a brief, telling address. He was reminded this gathering that neither time nor dis- tance could hman to forget the wrongs and oppressions wiich he Many had been drawn to y by the brightness of the flag of liberty. "England had been boast- ingof the exodus from Ireland, never lhhlklng that the I n America would become the strong: The question was raisod by some, what bene- fit would this agitation be to those in this landY Why not let Ireland work out its own’ salvation like any other country? One reason was, that it would elevate the rank of the here. Others coming to this land were recogniz by the governments from which they came. \ut s0 with the Irish, They had come here as outeasts, driven away by aeruel government. The re- formatory measures would, in elevating Ireland, elevate every one of its children wherever they might be.

Father Foley's insinuation that he was a monopolist, wanting to hold oflice for- ever, was just or not. One of the Des Moines delegates, N. S.
