Alderman Quinn of New York, himself an Irishman has energetic ally protested against the attempt by the Sinn Feiners to raise Gold $10,000,000 as "The first loan of the elected Government of the Republic of Ireland"
"Proud of my Irish ancestry and the great part Irishmen have played in the establishment of our country and the proud achievements of Trishmen all over the world, still at this time I feel it somebody's duty to protest against the financial appeal being made by the so-called 'President'? of the mythical 'Trish Republic,' De Valera, "This man no doubt is sincere in his dream of freedom, and as there is nothing dearer to an Irishman's heart than the freedom of the Old Sod his appeal no doubt will have tremendous effect.
"No more generous race exists than the Irish, and it's a pity to see the duly elected representative Mayor of this city pandering to a proposition to relieve Ireland's descendants in this country of $10,000.000. At first this 'Irish Republic' bond issue was considered a joke, but when a cheap, pettit fogging demagogue like the Mayor we have in City Hall allows himself to become a party to a fraudulent scheme such as this so-called 'Irish Republic' bond issue is, it is about time to raise a protest against such cheap claptrap political panhandling for votes, and tell the people the truth.
