TRANSLATION. "Ladles and Gentlemen : A few days ago I received a letter from Itt. Rev. Hlshop Kcnno , rector of the Catholic University of America. In which he said that the Ancient Order of Hibernians Intended to establish In that Institution a chair of the Gaelic lan guage and literature. I rejoice very much to hear thK because I have a very great respect nnd love for tbo Gaelic tongue , the natural tongue of nur race , the tongue of our fathers and mothers , the tongue of fit. Patrick , SL Uridget and St. Columltllle. It wan the language spoltcn by Patrick Sors- fl ld at Ihc siege of Limerick , and by Daniel O'Cinncll whtii he rous il the p.oplc of E.-ln to demand the restorullon of their rights. The Gaelic Is a sweet and musical tongue , nnd In It arc preserved very many of the beautiful old songs that our ancestors were wont to sing In the beloved fatherland , The Welsh , the French and the German s = peak their native tongues. Why should not the children of Erin understand the tongue ot ICrlu ? Havp you not the strength , the cour age nnd the moans to establish this chair nnd to preserve the tonuue of your race from utter disappearance ? Remember that you are called the Ancient Order of Hiber nian * ) , and that a society ot Gaels who care not for the tongue of the Gael Is an anomaly. Henceforward I trust you will do what Is In your power to accomplish the undertaking In question.The Gaelic tongue Is not yet a dead tongue , and for that rea son I hope that you , the children of the Gnel , will see to It that the 'means are not lacking to re'awukcn an Interest In Its pre servation and diffusion. " WEADOCK l-'nOM WEXFORD. Congressman Thomas WcadocU was the next speaker , and when he arose he was given a rousing reception. He said that on his arrival hero ho wondered what he had traveled 1,400 miles for , but this reception more than rep'ild him for his trouble. He said ho was a "son of the ould sod , " having been born In County Wexford , His grand father was one of the patriots who was killed In the Wexford rebellion. He said that the Irish had been accused of too often turning back to the past and not looking at tha present enough. But this uas only for the love of the old country from which they had been driven by persecution. "Hero lies our clearest hopes , " said the congressman , "that of good and great Amer ican citizenship. We must help to make our nation and race an honored one. God speed the movement to endow a chair In the Washington college for the study of the Celtic language , for much ot our history re mains unknown because of a lack of a more thorough linowlcdgo of the language ot our forefathers. "Tho Ancient Order of Hibernians is a charitable organization formed to help the destitute and needy , help educate our chil dren and care for our sick. Wo war against none and aim to help nil. "I hope soon to see the time when all of the national conventions of this order will be held with opea doors so that the whole world can son what we arc doing. There Is nothing dishonorable in thcso conventions , and our minutes can bo Inspected by any one. We always uphold free American citizenship. The French have been trying to regain their provinces and secure their records for the just twenty-five years , and the Irish had the same right. "American citizenship means a great deal. It has twice been bathed in blood with long and bloody wars with the mother country , and It was In 1812 when wo established our rights as a nation on the waters. This lsj\ froa country In all senses of the word. If wo do not like this government wo can go and HOMO will stop us. There are two kinds of citizens In this country , the native born and the one who claims this country's pro tection by adoption. Plao thorn side by side und I will show you just as many and patriotic citizens who have adopted this country as their home as there are natives. The adopted citizen was Just as glad to per form his duties of American cltlzonshlp In times of peace and war as are those * who flrst saw light of day on this soil. The Irish and German Americans sit on the bench na often as they stand In front of It as honored members of tha legal profession. This Is the one country which affords an opportunity for solf-dovelepment and educa tional advantages for all classes. nut the Qualities ot the American constitution hava not yet been fully tested. When war was declared over the slavery question none went further to the front than the bravo Irish men. " AFTER THE A..P. A. Reference to Phil Sheridan's achievements during the civil war created applause 'and then the xppnkcr took up the matter ot an tagonism to all Catholics by a certain secret organization Styled the "American Protective Association. " Ho referred to the Know-Xoth- Ing movement , and said that since the nnd ot Its short l.fu the members had been busily engaged In denying that they over balanced to mtcli an unmnerlcan movement. The con gressman said that no such society could live In this country , which hnd a foundation of absolute civil , political 'mid religious liberty , nnd that It would only be a short tlmo until the men who were now members of the A , P. A. would ace the folly ot It and deny that they ever belonged to that society. Ho said : "This Is a country when ) none uf our civil rights ran be Impaired because of our re ligious beliefs. Wo employ men because of their capacity for work , and do not ask them at what ehrlno do they worship. It Is treasonable to direct persecution In this country toward the Catholic or nny other church , and the American Protective asso ciation Is founded Upon treasonable princi ples. Those people sneak behind closed doors to do their work. I bid them to como out like men and drclare their principles like free Arnerlcan citizens have a right to do. They should not sneak around In a secret manuer , seeking to do harm to their neighbor because ho In a Catholic. I ask them to stop ( heir lying ulanders , which they have repeatedly published In obscure papers. The slanders have been refuted long ago , and any Intelligent citizen has since ceased to believe them. This Amor- lean Protective association Is ot Engllsl parentage. Look out for It , for these mor are trying to dethrone the novernmrnl founded by Qcorgo Washington and re-estab llsh that of King George III. Wo now gel men from Canada whom wo don't want , am ! they got Bomo of our citizens whom our of' fleers wont but cin't pet , " Congressman Wcadock was going to stop but ho was urged to go on , and ho spoki about the legislative and labor conditions o this country. He urged more men to slud : the forms of government and keep bottei posted on the affairs ot their adopted coun try. Ho said that there were so man ] things arising now that the minds of tin people had become confused , ami that petit1 Ically they hardly knew "where they won at. " VOICE FROM QEOHQIA. P , J , O'Connor ot Savannah , On. , chalrmar of the national Hibernian directory and can dldoto for the office of national delegate , wa : the next speaker. Ho advanced amid a per feet storm of applause , and said that hi took great pride In stating that ho was frorr Georgia , a state rich In policy and grand Ir resources. He said that the people of 111. state learned tolerance thirty-nine years ngc today , when the epidemic of Know-Nothing' Ism began to sweep over the country , Ther : Alexander II , Stephens stood In the breach IK behalf ot the people , who sent him back tc congress for his loyalty , . His reference tc the appointment of Patrick Walsh , an Irish- American Catholic , to the United States senate ateby the governor , who Is a Baptist , was repeatedly cheered. He was of the opinion the A. P. A.-Ism was a most Insidious mon ster , with a deep , dark motive , whlcli had not yet come to light , but that Its expressed principle was the destruc tion of one ot the foundation corner stones of the constitution ot the United States , The people should bo careful how they nourish tills vampire , for If It was warmed to their breasts It would attempt to overthrow tlili republican form of government. "Tills order Is a treason against this gov ernment , " said the speaker. "Religion lane no test of American citizenship. This move ment Is trying , silently and secretly , to un- dcrmlno the very corner stone of our gov ernment religious liberty. These plotters , composed of many knaves nnd some honest men , dare not show Its head openly , for Ita very Inception and principles Is founded on treason. These men say that this movement means a bloodless revolution of religion and politics , but let them undertake to curtail the rights of the people or overthrow the government and there would bo such an other uprising as was never before wit nessed. " Ho cautioned his friends to pay no atten tion to the rabid utterances ot this unamerl- can movement lest they start a fire , the flames of which they could not extinguish. He reviewed the hardships endured by the Irish Catholics In their endeavors to uphold this government and to build great cities. Ho found Catholics In all the honorable walks of life nnd thousands of them bad given their lives during the dark days of the ' 60's , when they stood by the union when there was an attempt to disrupt It through secession of the south. During all those tryIng - Ing times no Irishman had ever been guilty of betraying his adopted country or of seek ing to tear down the constitution made liy their forefathers , as has been attempted by men who seek the cowardly shield of secrecy to prevent their true motives from becoming known. "Away with bigotry , " exclaimed Mr. O'Connor. "Know-Nothlnglsm died an Ignoble death , so will this anti-American society or organization. Bigotry or Intoler ance will never predominate In this grand , free country , and I close by saying : "Hall to Columbia forever. " CLOSING SPEECHES OF THE SESSION. M. B. Fanslcr of Logunsport , Ind. , state delegate to the convention , said : "Tho asso ciation so Inaptly named complains that the Irish are guilty of absorbing all the olflces In this country. After meeting with many members of that order I do not wonder that the Irish should occupy every ofllco In the United States. The principles of A. P. A.-lsm are that this Is an Anglo-Saxon country , because wo use the English language. " He spoke about the nativity of the early population of this coun try , and then said : "Thor'o cafl bo no English test of American citizenship. " After speaking of the part taken by Irish- Americans in the civil war , ho said : "No A. P. A. has ever been heard condemning Fighting Phil Sheridan for his ride to Winchester , many years ago. All the Irish-American Catholics ask is a fair Hold and no favors. If the lories and A. P. As. will bogln on a friendly basis wo will extend to them the motto of our order , 'Unity and True Christian Friendship.1 If they Interfere with our constitutional rights wo will say to them : 'Fagan Bealnck' Clear the way. " Judge M. F. Wllhero of Philadelphia was the next speaker. Ho is the nntlonal dele gate of the order , and when he aroSe the whole audience stood up as a mark of re spect. Ho complimented Omaha , Nebraska and the citizens la general and John A. Crelghton In particular. He mentioned the patriotism of the Irish women nnd scored the old bachelor delegates , saying that ho hoped that some of Omaha's bright-eyed ladles would keep some of them hero for the lemalndcr of their lives. Ho was much pleased with the reception given the dele gates and members of the order by the citi zens , and thanked them for their kindness. In making a brief mention of the Hibernians ho said that their flrst duty was to honor the flag and govern ment of the most glorious country that the good God ever let the sun shine upon , the United States. Ho spoke of the patriotism ot the Irish In the past and paid a magnificent tribute to the memory of Abraham Lincoln. Ha thought that the Irish people were inclined to pay too much attention to the American Protective associa tion movement and that If It was let alone by honorable men It would soon dU out. He thanked the people t > f Omaha for their kindly greeting and wished God to bless all of them. "Every one In this beautiful city has treated us with the utmost kindness , " said Mr. Wllhore , "and In no other city has the press treated us with so much fairness. The papers of Omaha are a credit to American Journalism and we want to thank them for their courtesy. " This completed the program and the delegates - gates adjourned until In the evening , whan they had arranged for a public reception and ball. Notes of tlio Convention. J. A. Kllroy of Lincoln made an excellent presiding ofllcer at the open session , James Cnsserly Is reporting- the proceed ings of the convention for the Madison , WIs. , Democrat. The city was visited by many people from Council UluffM nnd South Omaha , who wit nessed the parade. Joe Murphy , chairman of the national press committee , IH a fine fellow and makes friends with every one. The Hibernians belonging to the regular army made a line appearance , and they marched as If they were the crack company at Fort Omaha. . w John II. O'HIgglns , editor of the Massa chusetts Pilot , arrived In the city yester day to report the proceedings of the con vention for his paper , Phil J. McKenna , editor of the Mirror , published at Kscanaba , Mich. , is a delegate to the convention and has mailo many friends since bin arrival. P. J. O'Hrlen of 8t. Louis , one of the most popular of the delegates , wa.-ucnlled home lust nltiht. Ho regretted to leave , but busi ness affairs caused him to return. The jeceptlon accorded Judge Wllhero nnd P. J , O'Connor at the open session yester day afternoon leaves no doubt as to their populurlty. Both men are fine pub'lo tprale- era nnd bring honor to their order , The movement to Bccuro an endowment for a chair for the study of the Celtic language at the Washington university is , rapidly trowing and the Hibernian con vention will probably take some definite action In the matter.

"Tho Ancient Order of Hibernians nt homo as well as abroad are Indebted to the able management of Its affairs by Its officers , and this can bo particularly said of the efficient and brilliant gentleman who honors the posi tion of national delegate. I allude to Brother M. F. Wllhero , through whose un tiring exertions and Indomlnltable energy , much ot the success of the order can be at tributed. "I sincerely trust that the convention will show Its appreciation of his able and effi cient management by paying him the mer ited compliment ot re-election. "To each and every member and brother 1 wish < to convey congratulations and trust that your efforts In behalf of the little green Isle may never relax until the battle Is won In other words , until the bright star ot. homo rule , absolute and complete , will b awarded the Irish people.
