Tho Hungarians.
The party Of Hungarians lately arrived in our
city, consists of four persons, who by their ser
vices and sutfarings in the cause of Hungarian
Liberty. won for themselves distinction at nome.
and have eminently entitled themselves to respect
and consideration wherever they 60
LAp,sras MApARAsz, filed the important post
Of Secretary Of Internal Police, Gone of the Min
listers of the Hungarian government,) and was a
member and Judge (notart) of the Upper House
Of the Hungarian Diet. Before the difficulties
with Austria. he received the appointment from
the King Of Hungary, of President OF the Courts
Martial Of the k;nsdom-an office which gave
.him the power of life and death in time of war.
When the struggle with Austria began, he was
chosen to the SINE Office by the Hunsarans, in
onposit,oa to the wishes Of the Austrian Vice
roy.
In connection with his brother, he was the
editor of the principal liberal paper IN Hungary,
and by his spirited and patriotic articles, acqnr
ed great influence with his conntrymen, and was
one Of those chiefly instrumental in producing
the revolt against Austria. His brother who
was assistant editor with him, on the subyigation
Of the country, fell into the hands of the Aus
TRANS, and is considered fortunate N escaping
death at the hands Of the execntioaer. by being
condemned to nine years Imprisonment, which
he is now undergoing in the fortress of Comorn,
ever memorable for its heroic resistance under
Governor uihazy, to the attacks Of the Austri-
ans.

April. 1915, by his personal exerioas and speech
Is, was chiefly instrumental in producing the dec

guished himself by the part he took, in endeav-
oring to effect complete separation of Hungary
from Austria.
Francis EAsGA and ERNEST DRsHos were
both members Of the Dict. and gave ali their in
flnence to the cause of Hungary during the war.
All these men served in the War, from its COM
mencement 10 its conclusion. When Georgia
betrayed the cause Of Hungary and surrendered
The army to the Austrians, there was high price
set upon their heads. Drahos fled to Turkey
with Kossuth; and on being released wentto Eng
land. The other three made their escape TO TIA
" and Switzerland. and thence to England, from
which latter country they have just arrived in
the United States. They will remain in Burling-
ton until they can rent or purchase farms in the
vicinity. They intend to make Iowa their per-
manent home and to become cnlt:vators Of the
soil. They have formed an attachment for our
state constitution, upon being made acquainted
with il, from its resemblance in general features
10 the Constitution the Hungarians were fighting
for. In no other of the Western States are the
same inducements held out to foreigners to ac-
quire and hold real estate. They are further at
tached to Iowa because in its SOIL climate and
general features il resembles their native land.
Quite number Of Hungarian families are on
their way to this country, and may be expected
here in the course Of the next six months. They
are expected to make their homes in Iowa.
