Irish Goaded
To Desperation,
V. Says Speaker
Peter Golden, in Address Be

pares His Fellow Citizens
Tol Christian Martyrs.
"England and her hired mercen
aries are, goading the people of Ire
land into open rebellion so she will
have anjexcuse to shoot them down
and settle the Irish question for
ever," Peter .Golden of Cork, Ireland,
. declared in a1' speech before Omaha
women in the ballroom tne Black
stone hQtel yesterday afternoon.
"Not since tl'.e days of the early
Christian martys has a people shown
such fortitude and spirit," the speak
er asserted. "England has filled Ire
land with .soldiers and all the imple
ments of war. She has watchid the
merciless attack on women and chil
dren, and-the assassination, of the
Irish leaders, ytt she has not cried a
halt. Ireland! patiently bearing her
yoke; and only waits recognition by
the world as a separate nation until
;he will assert herself.
Oppression Never Told.
"The real history of Ireland and
the .oppression by England has never

.Vow, the ; Irish people are telling
tne story as st is. ihey are show
ing the .world what the oppression
has meant to Ireland for the past
750 years. ' , ; r ,, -
V'Englahd has pauperized our land,
she has driven the best of our people
to foreign shores and has prevented
our advancement in ) commerce, in
dustry and culture, yet she has not
crushed the Irish spirit. There are
no signs of a compromise' despite
our desperate situation. ' ,'
Denies Religious Question. '
"England says we are small; that
ve don't know what' we want; that
we are always fighting among our
selves; 1 that the Irish question is a
religious question. (
. "England again ' is wrong. She
l.nows Ireland is rich in natural re
sources and geographically situated
to soon command the commercial in
tercourse all nations. There is no
internal dissension. All but two coun
ties are in favor of an Irish republic.
Religion docs not enter into the
present struggle - for independence.
Many of our honored patriots were
Protestants. In. Ireland we care not
what amanV yeligiojv may be if he
is true to Irish principles and Irish
traditions., , .; , ; ,; .

Ireland Asks Recognition.
"England : continually harps on
'Catholic : domination vif Ireland is
freed.' England has gone to the res
cue of Catholic Belgium,, Poland and
other nationsvQf this ..religion yet she
did ' not rnrntion Catholtc domina
tion at' those times.
"When 'America entered the" world
v,ar she said she' did so to repay a
debt she oed to France. Ireland
aified, the , Colonies,. in their fight for
independence yet she does not ask
that the debt be paid. ' All she asks
i. that America -recognize Ireland
