Following Mr. Connor came Judge Samuel

Uall of tbo citizens of Plattsnioutli. Ho suit !
lie recognized fully the complunont bestowed -
stowed upon him by his being soled -
led for this duty , and then pro
ceeded to welcome the throng of visitors
in a very cordial and vigorous manner. Ho
told how the Irish cnrao to this country tc
fulfill the duties of American citizenship In
its fullest and broadest scuso. Ho dwell
upon the loyalty , ictolllgouco and progrcs

coming the crowd ho tumod to Governor
Boyd and said : "In the presence of this
gentleman wo enjoy the society of the state' ;
tncst distinguished citizen , and hois an Irish
man 1" A handsome mcorulum was then paid
to the governor , and after wishing all pres
ent a most enjoyable and proll table afternoon
the judge resumed his seat.
Mr. Connor then waved his hand anO
bowed toward the chief executive , and as Mr ,
Boyd nroso ho said : "Ladies and gentlemen ,
this Is . I ames E. Boyd , our bouorablo Irtsti
governor. "
The applause tbat succeeded this introduc

"Ill reply to the very cordial words of wol-
oomo of my friend , Judge Chapman , for my-
Molf and on boliulf of those present , I can but

" ! or centuries it has been on honored and
ft befitting custom for men of Irish birth und

"I came to Nebraska when It contained nol
many more people than nro now In your
beautiful and progressive city. 1 have
watched ( and I may say ) I have been part ol
Its growth. I came hero In tbo Mush of early
manhood , n slmpln mechanic , bent upon
earning nn honest living , nnd it has boon my
fortune to have borne some part In the nf-
fnlra of the territory and fllnto. It Las been
my homo over slnco , and , I can a ay , I hnvo
never had n desire for n homo olsowhoro.
1 Thcro was it tltno whontheuturo ! | ( did not
hold out a promise of tbo realization such aa
jvo now bohold. Jn the success and pros
perity of our slate , our achievements havt
been far beyond onr fondest dreams ; and it
is bolUtlng on this occasion for mo to say ,
that much of it Is duo to the work nnd efforts
of the men of the rnconnd nationality assem
bled hero to do honor to this day. In tlio
genesis of Nebraska men of Irish birth anil
descent bore their honorable , part aud have
loft their impress upon the times as well as
upon the pioneer history of their section. II
the names and deeds of men of Irish birth
and blood were erased from the pages of Its
history , much that Is grand and good would
bo obliterated ; and this does not apply alone
to Nebraska , but to every stale lu this glori
ous union.
"Sinco the time when Irishmen placed their
signatures upon that imperishable roll ol
honor , the Declaration of Independence , until
the present , the pages of American history
have been decorated and dignlliod by their
pntriotto deeds.
"From the very first settlement of this
country , lu field and in factory. In the senate
and on the battlefield , Irish energy ha ? boon
represented. When our forefathers throw
off tlm British yoke , one-sixth of the popula
tion was Irish. One-fourth of all the com
missioned oillcors of tbo armv and navy of
the revolution were Irish. History records
that the first odlccr killed In b > ittle was an
an Irishman , as was also the tlrst artillery
ofllcor appointed , Iho first commodore com
missioned , and thu first victor to whom the
British flag xvas struck at sea , And with
such enthusiasm did Irishmen espouse the
cause of liberty that Lord Mountjoy de
clared In Parliament : 'You have lost
America by the Irish. '
"Tho Carrolls. the Kutlegos , the McICeanj ,
and scores of other noted men of the revolu
tion , were Irishmen. Whence came such
men ns Patrick Henry , Andrew Jackson ,
John C. Calhoun , the here of Wlnchostor.aurl
Tecumseh Sherman I They were all of Irish
descent.
Glnnco nt the I'natuml Future.
"I have soon Nebraska grow nnd develop
from a sparsely settled territory of less than
10,000 Inhabitants into n wealthy and prosperous -
porous state of over 1,000,000 people : Its re
sources develop from virgin prairlo into
many millions of wealth ; and this yo&r it
ranks as fourth in the production of corn
und eleventh In the production of wheat and
other cereals. 1 have seen its inllnonco in
national affairs develop from a delegate on
sufTranco In the house of representatives to
six congressmen lu that body und two sena
tors in the other houso. No state in the
union has a prouder history in comparison
with Its years of existence. No state has a
liner educational system or bettor provision
for the support of Its schools. No state has
n smaller percentage of Illiteracy , and no
state has greater material prosperity all
things considered than Nebraska. A
healthy climate , a productive soil nnd n popu
lation of energetic and intelligent citizens.
"It requires no prophetic vision to look Into
the future aud see for Nebraska n hereafter
far greater in results than tbat
achieved m the past. Long before
another quarter of a century shall
hnvo passed away , if wo live , wo will
see our fair state , with Its area of 70,000
square miles , populated by fully 2,000.000 of
souls ; its metropolis n city of & 00,000
people ; Its broad and fortiloprairies loom
ing with life and Industry , and Its cities and
towns alive with the hum of trade aud manu
facture.
"Nebraska IB a great state today , and soon
will in itself bo a fertile empire ; nnd so long
as this government shall bo counted among
the nations of the earth , Nebraska will bo a
state , glorifying its citizenship and rendering
happy its people ; extending n welcome and
homo to the oppressed of nil nations , bidding
them share such mood of prosperity as their
several offortH merit.
' 'I do not propose to abuse your patience
with comparative statements of the wealth
and population of this state In comparison
with former periods of progress in her his
tory. T tier o is nothing in the homilies and
maxims of St. Patrick to justify so tedious an
argument. Crassns , the most ava-
racious of Homnn commanders , returning
from n conquest , laden with the spoils and
captives of n foreign state , was demanded by
the pro-consul before being admitted within
the gates , tbo ovidonoo of his victories. Ho
gave to ttio pro-consul this sententious answer
' . ' Look around .
swer : 'Clrcumspicc. you.
For evidence of the wealth and progress of
Nebraska , I answer : Look around you.
Loyally to the State.
"Thelpooplo of no other nationality so dearly
love America und its government ns do Irish
men : nor are the hearts of any others so
deeply and permanently Imbued with senti
ments of liberty nnd froonom. Tbo genius
of the Irish nation baa discovered co-sub
stantial with tbntof tbo American revolution
that all men were created equal ; that all
were otidowol with equal rights ; that to secure -
cure their rights governments wcro Insti
tuted wholly with the consent of the gov
erned. This sentiment of high treason was
forthwith condemned at Dublin castle , and
found guilty at the Four courts ; the gal
lows was the penalty ; but there re
mained to the memory of the
Irish patriot the sweet savor of the name of
a blessed martyr. In their musings on tbo
rights of humanity , they had long caught
glimpses of tbo truth ; they had propliotic
revelations of iho dnwningn of civil liberty
In a distant land. Looking down the vast
future they beheld on the plains of the set
ting sun , beyond tbo ocean's wide expanse ,
on the sroon slopes of the Missouri nnd tbo
Platlo , the living sons of St. Patrick In full
possession of the great charter of the rights
of man ,
"Sons of St. Patrick , and citizens of Nebraska

"Lndlcs nnd gentlemen , " began Mr. MahO' '
noy , "within the memory of many now It v-
Ing , within the memory probably ol

wlien this measureless plain which
now constitutes the great state ol
Nebraska , was crossed by wagon trains ol
emigrants , men , women aud children seeking
homes In the now Eldorado of the west. I
can fancy one of these caravans now , com

of the times , as It drawn up for the night and
the men busy themselves with their defenses
ngalnst the savage native during the dark
hours that must Intervene hofora the ruing

plains , wo cm IK mnts and children of Ireland ,
nro pleased to halt nnd In proud retrospec

race.
"Wo recall some of the incidents that have
given life , light and pathos to our journey
down to the present day , the dim chlnro
nsuuro of n sacred picture.Vo recall some
of the achievements of Irishmen beyond the
confines of their nntivo land. Wo nro not

conquest of right. It Is that wo doslro to
keep croon in memory , with that charity In
spired by tno savior , "by Christ himsolt In
the command that we shall love our neigh
bors as ourselves. That was the teaching.1
of St. PatricK , Ills crusade into Scotland
was one of peace , not carriage , und ho was
received overywhoio with open nrms.
It HUS n ItluoilleHs Conquest.
"And so In Ireland. Not a battle was
fought in propagating the cause of Chris
tianity In Ireland , not n drop of blood of
either native or invader was shod , the In <
voder bclne a messenger of love nnd pence ,
and from tbnt day on down until the und ol
time , despite the limitless powers of Eng
land , combined witli the diabolical inlluenc f
of hell itself , the good seed planted In that
beloved country by Patrick will survive.
"Wo know less perhaps about his early
history and loss of the people of his day than
wo might desire. But they have
left us monuments , not of marble ,
pranlto or bronze , but in thcii
laws. Ono fcnturo from their ancient
code will conclusively exhibit the high order
of civilization that existed in Ireland , oven
before the Danish invasion. For centuries
past , In more alleged civilized lands , n mar
ried woman had uo rights to property in tbo
eyes of the law. Now , however , she Is al
lowed to hold property iu her own nnmo ,
which cannot bo seized for the debts of hci
husband or dispossessed by reason of unjust
legislation. This is considered the crowning
triumph of the nineteenth century ; yet back
In the dim vistas of centuries married women
were endowed with this right respecting
property as the men. That is ono of the im
perishable monuments of that hlghor stand
ard of civilization they have loft us , for thus
wo have simply gene bade and copied the
laws of Ireland of a thousand years or more
ago.
Only lu Self Defense.
"And during oven these early times there
sprang up relations between Irishmen and
other nations , and there was such a being as
the Irishman abroad. Wo are said to be
great lovers of a Iroo light , wo are noted for
our chivalry and courageousness and out
valor as soldiers , but iu one endless interim
never were the Irish known to leave then
land to conquer or invade , never was our
arm lifted against the rights or liberties ol
another. Wnat lighting they did was done
simply in defense of their own homos and
firesides. Nothing over induced them out to
conquest , save tbo conquest of love nnd
peace. They sought to enlighten the heathens ,
but not wi'b a sword in ono baud and a bible
in the other , as did Cromwell's myrmidons
in their raid on Ireland.
"I ho Irishman did go abroad. I repeat , in
these times , but only to convert , to civilize ,
to educate und enlighten. Ho went out into
the ocean and discovered Ireland lone before
the advent of the Norsemen to her frlgll
shores. Ho went into England and con
verted the people of that land. During these
years when the savage tribes of north Eu
rope were sweeping down even unto the vorv
portals of Homo , Ireland wns a peaceful and
happy haven , receiving her students from all
other lands nnd sending forth her mission
aries to civilize the world.
Irishmen lu Amorlcn.
"But after a time these hoatlfic conditions ,
by an iron heel , wore suppressed , and emi
gration became the Irishman's punacoa , many
of them crossing iho Atlantic's bread ex
panse and mingling with the disciples of lib
erty in the colonies ol America. And -great
has been tbo honors they have achieved
here , both on land aud sea , iu
nriny nnd nnvy , They contributed much
to the cause of independence , not
BO much by force in battle , but by the lavish
bestowal of their property nnd wealth. Kob-
ert Morris was an example of what our people
ple did for American liberty. But to comedown
down to the time within our own memory ,
tbo war of the rebellion , ou whoso lustrous
pages nro graven the names of Sheridan ,
Sherman , Shields nnd Mulligan. The Irish
came here penniless aud settled all over the
broad country. They helped build our rail
roads , tuunolled our mountains , brought up
tbo treasures of our mines , manned our ships
nt sea and swelled tbo ranks of our armies ;
they have filled high positions in both lonnto
and house , lu thu cabinet and the governor's
chair ,
"The Irishman has been foremost In our
politics , not because of bis lova of their at
tending excitements , but because ho has the
intelligence , the foresight and brain which
alone count in the formation of sound policy ,
it is for this reason bo is manifest at our pri
maries , our conventions , municipal , state
nnd national. But it Is not in arms nnd poll-
tics alone tbo Irish bavo made their mark.
In literature ho baa been heard from. Fight
ing great battles constitutes no honor unless
they nro fought in the cause of human lib
erty and human right. "
Then Mr. Mahoney related the vicissitudes
in the lifo of the Irish convict , John Boyle
O'itoilly , the scholar nud patriot , to whom
the nobility nf this whole country paid homage
age , The memory of such Illustrious country
men should bo kept green by all loyal Irish
men , men whoso names will go down the
ngos with th03Q of the greatest men of earth.
Mr. Muucnoy wound up his eloquent address
with a poetical quotation that was as up ; as
It was eloquent aud beautiful. Ho was
cheered to the echo ns ha took his seat. .
During tlm J vituliiK ,
The evening exorcises were held nt the
Waterman opera house and a vast auulonco

of Governor Boyd on the platform

followed the load of Shcrlann In the Shcnnii-
doah valley , who swept to the charge of
Mary's Height * under Thomas Frances
Mcagher , who hold Lexington under the
command of the lamented Mulligan , whoso
glorious death gave testimony to all the
world of a Cathollo Irishman's love for the
American Hag , can only bo taunted by bigots
and demagogues with a liiclt of reverence for
that Hag , and devotion to American institu
tions.
"A man can bo trt'O to liberty In nuy and
nil lands , and I hold that it should bo re
quired of nn American , above nil mon , to
glvo forth no uncertain , utterances on that
question nt any time or place , whether ho bent
nt the court of St. James or holding the com
mission of his stn'o discussing extradition
treaties for political offences in the scnato.
This glorious land hns more to fcnr from the
machinations of the British enemy than from
any other enemy in Europe or on these con
tinents. Every well road citizen knows how
eagerly she sought from 1SH ( to ISM to break
up this union , a'nit only tlm other day her
press poured out the full torrent of its wrath
upon the devout heads of these charged with
the administration of affairs in this country ,
because of the manly and courageous stand
taken oy President Harrison nud Secretary
Blalno In defense of the rights , immunities
nnd honors duo to Americans in the neigh
boring republic of Chill.

"But wo who nro eiirourngiug the Irish

fathers struggled through weary centuries ,
nro conscious that wo commit no wrong be
cause wo aid the pooplo'In the old laud to
wrest their freedom from u power that , has
exercised Its brutalities vipou them without
ceasing for seven long centuries. As Ireland
in the days of her glory niSver commlttod n
slnglo national sin , and In tbo days
of her sorrow never despaired of n
blessed resurrection , Tier sans hnvo no
reason to bo nsbamedi of her , nnd are
above apologizing for her , The love of na
tionality is from on high. Dear to the
Frenchman's heart is the charminir land of
poetry and romance , the liuul of the cheva

nnd the flour de lis , "thb merry land of

aud the Russian , tboujrh-prdcspot rule , goes
to do battle for his cormtvy , shouting the
Christian cry of "Christhave meroy on mo" :
the Englishman bears the rod , white and
blno into the thickest of tuo fray for Albion
nnd St. Goorgo.
"Our own citizen soldiery who did doughty
deeds in tbo southern land have received
tholr country's apotheosis ; then why may wo
not honor our fathers , who never cowered by
Hold or Hood ; why may not the children of
beautiful , misgoverned , desolate Ireland moot
to testify their love , to swear their fealty , to
renew , In n manner , their national baptismal
vows to that fairest and saddest of mothers !
Wo love Amorlcn with u passionate Celtic
attachment , nnd are not insensible oJ
our obligations , nor ungrateful for
her many favors. Wo love her because
she Is free , and wo would fnln extend her in
stitutions and tnko the land plundered and
cursed by kings , cabinets nnd factions , nnd
holding over her tbo icgi.s of free institutions
the Shannon would Hew past myriad manu
factories to tbo sea , her beautiful barbers
would bo whitened by the commerce of the
world , her Institutions of learning revive ,
her artisans would oomo from their dingy
dwellings , and all her citizens would stand
forth with the light of liberty playing around
their brows nnd tno love of God and the
blessings of tbo religion of St. Patrick for
ever molting iu their hearts. "
Dispassionately but earnestly nnd in clo-
quont words , President Gaqnon spoke of
Americans having unconsciously boon Ire
land's friend for more than n century , and
told of the hope that had flourished in Irish
hearts since tuo birth of tbo great republic.
His closing remarks were n prophecy of suc
cess for the gallant Irishmen who have
worked so long to sccuro liberty for the dear
old Island , and of the groatnosu that will bo
restored to her with her birthright. Mr.
Gannon was frequently interrupted by the
warm approval of his bearer * taking form of
boisterous applause.
After Mr. Gannon had closed , Mrs. E.
Burris and James 1C. Pollock rendered n very
charming duet. Miss Anna Tighu next gave

alleged has been collected In excess of thu
Ic fil amount. The plaintiffs nllotro that tlio
dotendant coiupntiy is n common carrier
nmcuablo to the laws of Nebraska and thoro-

charges. Discrimination is alleged , however ,
as the Call is charged more tor the same ser

that inasmuch as congress has never under
taken to regulate the matter of telegraph

In answer the defendant company sots up
that it Is amenable only to the general cov-
