The Celtic Monthly should be in the hands of e¬
very Gael; it is published at $1, a year by Mr Jno
Mackay, 17 Dundas St. Kingston, Glasgow. The
plates alone are worth more than the yearly cost.
The IRISH STANDARD, Minneapolis, Minn., is the
liveliest weekly we know, — it handles the Orange
A P A's without gloves.
The Portland CATHOLIC SENTINEL, as its name
indicates, is, indeed, full of Catholic new.
We find the SUNDAY GAZETTEER, Denison, Tex.
one of the spiciest journals coming to our exchange

The editor of the CATHOLIC SENTINEL, Chippewa

GAELS
Had you persevered in the "spurt” you made in
the Gaelic cause on the foundation of THE GAEL,
you would have a widely circulated influential Gae¬
lic journal to expose the double dealing of the Irish
leaders who, with the left hand solicit your dollars
for "patriotic” purposes and, the right, circumvent
all efforts at Irish autonomy. They do not think it
politic to openly run counter to Irish National as¬
pirations, but act the part of the Woodman with
the Fox. These are the men who support the anti-
Home Rule Irish (§) Catholic of Dublin. Because of
its learned antecedents, the Irish agitators and the
British government desire the preservation of Irish
as a dead language, but not as a living tongue, for
that would be the preservation of Irish Nationality.
One line from the governors of Maynooth would
cause the language to be taught in all the Catholic
colleges in Ireland. — Gaels, do your part and circu¬
late your journal. — Persevere !
Because of moving etc. The Gael is a little late
this month.
