Show THE ANGLO-AMERICAN ALLIANCE. ALLI-ANCE. It is becomin.r clearer every day that American people want none of the l1' p 'sid Anglo-American alliance. Of '"!., there are certain papers that I "'.-! i determined to brinr about such unejrtdrable condition if it be possi-anj possi-anj these papers lose no opportunity opportun-ity to manufacture public opinion in '"Vor ,,f it. s.-!ii..

The memory of Parnell nil i, honored without opening of o'd s n-es. -N""w. it is to l.e hoped that bath. Tallon and Mr. Redmond will not lose a single opportunity to make "allusion "al-lusion to the broader aspects" of all questions which are involving, prominently promi-nently today, the British policy in Ireland, Ire-land, in Africa and in America as well. It is a matter of sincere congTatula- tion that the Irish and Germans in . America, together with a large element of all other nationalities, are resolutely and uncompromisingly opposed to the alliance, expressed or implied, which a certain clique in America would bring about. . j- As far as the Irish people in America are concerned, they are practically a unit in opposing an entangling alliance with England. England, with her centuries of in-famous in-famous oppression, her f reed for gold, her blood-red history, shall never beguile be-guile the American people anel mislead them, as she has so frequently done to other nations in the past. Let the politicians favor it if they j will; an alliance whose only motive is plunder will not be sanctioned by the American, people. |
