What the cross represents to the Chris tian, tho Stars ami Stripes represent to the oppressed and persecuted peoples of the wurld. That we hereby affirm nnd declaro for ourselves and the race we represent our determination to stand by the Hag of our country tn this hour, when tho hearis and blood and lives of men .ire needed to uphold and maintain Its ascendency, and wc refer with pride nnd satisfaction to the muiiy names of men of our race to be found on tho rohter of those who sleep In the dark waters of Havana Hay of thoso who Immortalized the harbor of Manila by their uuparallcl bravery, nnd of those whoso intrepid heroism manned tho Jterrlmac. That we heartily endorse the action of tho congress nnd the president of the United States In the determination to drive Spanish misrule from tho Island of Cuba. That war so rarely Justifiable becomes, however, sanctified when waged In the cause of hutnnntty. That we specially commend the wlso and conservative efforts of President Mc Klnley to secure by peaceful methods an honorable nnd humane solution of the difficulty with Spain. WAR WAS 1NEV1TARLE.

We Invite their co-operation under the banner of our Ancient Order In promot ing the propagation of the principles of friendship, unity and true Christian dimity nmong the people of our race In this glorious republic. Thnt wo congratulate the Hibernians of America on the reunion of the two branches of the order, their differences were more In form than In substance, and It required only the kindly Interven tion of the Rt. Rev. Bishop of Trenton to point the pathway to n reunited biolh erhood, and both branches vied with each other In marching under one ban ner for tho advancement of principles which were equally dear to both. "" A HOME RECOMMENDED. That wo recommend to the next na tional convention of our order that steps should bo taken to lound and establish a home for such aged and disabled mem bers as should need the shelter of the order's beneficence, nnd wo pledge our selves to willingly, faithfully and loy ally sustain any efforts of tho national organization In that behalf. That we urge upon members the great vnluo of llfo Insurance for themselves and their families; wo believe It to bo the sacred duty of every Hibernian to make proper provision for those de pendent upon his earnings In the event of his death. The consciousness of hav ing done so will soften his death bed. bring repose to his mind and peace to his soul. That we recommend the organization of lad.es' auxiliary branches In connec tion with local divisions, and we bear testimony to the satisfactory results wheie such branches now exist. That we recommend to the divisions of the order within the Jurisdiction of this convention that they take such volun tary steps as they shall deem proper to help his Grace Archbishop Ryan in com pleting and sustaining the Catholic pro tectory.
