Concerning the Hamden school vote.

Concerning the Hnmdcn school Vote
To the Editor of the Journal and Courier:
Having read the article signed "Trutl
and Justice in last Thursdays Cour
Ter, wish to call attention to few
statements which are, to say the least
very misleading. The author speaks o.
the fear of litigation as explaining wha
he terms "the unfortunate result O.
our late vote, but he ignores the fac
that Mr.. Henry g. Newton had de
clared that previous vote of the
town, limiting the amount to be /pait
to $50, was illegal, and that the towr
could not fix the amount to be so paid
Mr.. James H. Webb, whose interest in
economy of school management is
probably as great as that of any of our
citizens, was present, and he upheld
Mr. Newton's opinion.
The law does not state that the town
may pay, but '.* shall pay the
whole or any part of the tuition fee, -
and this, not on vote of the citizens
but upon the order of the chairman
of the Board of School Visitors or
Town School Committee" thus leaving
no option to the voters. If Mr.. Webb,
as a lawyer, and as a citizen and tax
payer of the town of Hamden, fears
litigation, is Truth and Justice" will
ing to state over his signature that that
fear is unfounded and to guarantee the
town against litigation?
Then he states that $4,000 is to be
spent on twenty favored pupils,'' and
this is untrue, for 5000 of this is paid by
the State, merely passing through the
hands of the town treasurer, and could
not be spent on the 900 pupils of the
elementary schools who so badly need
1t, as the State would not pay it for that
purpose. AS for the insinuation that
the Hamden schools cannot fit pupils
for the New Haven high schools,
leave that to be answered by school
principals and the Board of Education
I wish merely to say that / do not be-
lieve that the New Haven high schools
are so eagerly bidding for out-of-town
pupils that they admit them without
examination.
Then our writer apportionS the bur-
den of this taxation with an ingenuity
and impartiality that should qualify
him to frame tariff bill or presiden-
tial platform. First, We are told that
the widow or invalid farmer should
not be called upon to furnish higher
education to the man, possibly not
taxpayer who has a good business"
etc MANY times the children of the
poor widow or invalid farmer are the
ones most worthy of a good education,
and that will make the best use of it.
Would it be Justice" to deny them the
opportunity to assist their parents in
any other way than by helping to run
the farm? Further, who is the man
mot q taxpayer, who has a good bust
ness?" Does he not pay taxes indi-
reetly in the shape of house rent and
living expenses?
Again, we are told that the State tax
is unjust to steam and trolley roads,
savings banks and life insurance COM
panies. Twenty high school pupils
would pay the trolley roads from
$500 to $500 annually in extra fares
Is that unjust to the trolleys? AS to
the savings banks, let any one go to

TRUE AMERICAN GRIT.
The Four Days Fight of Thfrty-One of
Our Soldiers Against 600 Fflfpinos.

Washington, June s.-Perhaps the
most thrilling and picturesque Incl

CURED at Catubig, on h island of
Samar, where, on April 18th, last, a
party OF thirty-one enlisted men OF
Company II, Forty-third infantry VOL
u%nteers, held at bay a force Of some
fiercest fighting. reinforcements arriv-
ing in just the nick Of time.
The war department has received
reports from Col. H. VI. Day, of the
FOrty-third volunteer infantry, and
First Lieutenant J. T. Sweeney, of
rescue party, giving all the details of
the attack, the siege and the relief.
According to these reports the at
tack on the garrison at Catubig began
without warning on Sunday morning,
April 18th. From the hills on all sides.
from every point of vantage in town
and from a deserted church directly
adjoining, came a rifle and cannon
fire of terrible intensity.
On Tuesday morning handfuls of
burning hemp We're thrown into the
barracks from the insurgents in the
church n soor the soldiers refuge
was on fire. All efforts to subdue the
fire failed and finally the little band
made a dash for the river bank. Some
We're killed before the bank was
reached. Others fell dead in a boat
with which they We're attempting to
make the opposite shore and when
a trench finally was dug with bayo-
nets, there were but sixteen of the
t~hirty-one left TO man it. Here for two

his men with the judgment of a vet
eran, held out undo a terrible fire
until Lieutenant Sweeney's command,
which had been ordered to S~upplant
the garrison at Catubig and was on
its way up the river on the steamer
Laoaug arrived. Not until within a
quarter of a mile of Catubig saysLieu-
tenant Sweeney in his report did they
ear the noise of the engagement.
Then he realized that he and his men
were sorely needed, and ordered the
captain of his BOAT to run the boat at
top speed. The Laoang steamed up to
Catubig under a rain of MauSer bull
lets from both shores. Two small
boats were lowered, a landing effected
and the rescuers fought their way
through the open to their besieged
comrades in the trenches, buried the
dead within reach, brought bach to the
boat the beSieged party, numbering
now only thirteen men and steamed
down the river.
Captain Day bestows the highest
commentator upon Corporal Corson
as "displaying extraordinary good
Judgment in the handling of his men,
thereby saving the liv,s of the survi-
vors, and protecting the wounded until
relief came" To each of the little
command and their rescuers he gives
the highest praise.

For the last three days the whole
community of Tien TSin has been pre-
pairing to defend itself against an eX-
pected attack by the Boxers. There is
a continual influx of refugees from the
surrounding country who are hpow
crowding the city. This increaseS the
excitement. Nearly all the villages
surrounding Tien Tsin are joining the
Boxers movement, which is taking
more and more a fanatical character.
Parties of foreigners when ap-
preaching the villages are driven back
by rme bands. Attempts to re-es-
tablish the regular working of the Pc
kin Tien Tsin railroad nave hitherto
proved futile. Every night the Boxers
set fire to the sleepers and the wood

KOREA'S AFFRONT TO JAPAN.
A dispatch to The Daily Mail from
Yokohama, dated Friday, describing
the effect upon Japan of the refusal
of the Korean emperor to give an au-
dience to the Japanese minister re-
garding the torture and execution of
political suspects, says:
The feeling here is exceedingly ex-
cited. 1t may not be possible for the
government to keep it in check, as the
officials were able to do at the end Of
March, when Russia made her de-
mands, particularly on the question Of
Masampho. 1t is thought here that
Russian influence is behind the affront
given by Korea to Japan. The tone Of
the Japanese press is very bitter, and
grave developments are possible"
