Because of an article which appeared in the Gael
some time ago some of the Cronin Clann-na-Gael
men accused us with favoring the triangle. The
parties holding such views are too much prejudic¬
ed to enable them to come to a rational conclusion.
We favored neither. There were three British
spies in the case : Le Caron on the triangle side
urging Cronin's death; another on the other spur¬
ring his actions against the triangle, and the third
(the chief), directing the movements of both. These
are the men that Le Caron said he left behind him.
It was not necessary for the third to belong to the
Clans. The London Times wanted the murder of
Cronin because it expected to connect the Parnell
party with the Clann na Gaels. Had the Clans car¬
ried on their Society in an intelligent manner, no
British spy could get into it to disorganize it, and
to bring disgrace on the Irish name — Had they
kept a record of every member's place of birth —
townland, parish and county — where he spent eve¬
ry year since, referring to some respectable inhab¬
itants of the various places, there would be no Le
Carons because they should bear their proper and
not false names. The Englishman assumed Le
Caron because of the known regard the Irish have
for the French. Half the fellows going about go
under false names. With the above safeguard, the
exclusion of impecunious professionals, and a
solid mechanic as treasurer, they might be efficient,
not otherwise.
Tho' we may be mistaken in our views we have,
nevertheless, a right to them, but we assure our cri¬
ticisers that when they see us express other than
our own views they will see a white blackbird.
We send out this month a large number of sample
copies and we request of those who receive them —
in the name of the language movement — to hand
them to some neighbor after reading them.
