You are fortunate in this State
in having the initiative and refer

on to do that which you believe

The Maine legislators, in the last
session, were too much occupied with
troubles of purely local Importance,
to get into the field of international
politics and so were not distinguish
ed by visit from Mr.. Bryan. Had
he had an errand with them, however,
he might have used, unchanged, the
above paragraph of his California adj
dress. Maine was ahead of Califor-
MIA in adopting the Initiative and Ref
erendum, and what is more prideful,
was the first state east of the Missi-
ssippi to thus qualify as a pure de-
mocracy.

IRlSHMEN WOULD
F0RESTALL FUND
FOR PEACE FETE
Strong Resolutions Adopted at
Mass meeting Against
Centenary of Peace
Treaty


Strong resolutions, condemning the
proposed celebration of 100 years of
peace between Great Britain and the
United States, were adopted at mass
meeting of Irishmen and their sons,
held Saturday evening in the United
Irish Societies hall, State street. The
resolutions, by vote of the meeting,
were forwarded to Governor Baldwin
the Bridgeport members of the Cen
eral Assembly and the chafrmen of
the committee on Finance of the Cen
eral Assembly, They bear the sigma
tures of Sergeant John O'ConneH, SO
DreW#place. chairman of the meeting,
and John j. O'Nei1l, $50 Olive street,
the secretary.
Resolved That we protest against
the recomm endation made by the Gov
ernor of Connecticut to the General
Assembly favoring the appropriation
of money from the State Treasury for
what is called the Celebration of a
land for the following reasons:
because invidious distinction
should not be made in favor Of Eng
land, which has shown it's enmity to
the United States in every crisis of
difficulty and danger, and any cele-
bration which could and would be
used against Powers with which we
have always been at peace would be
contrary to the tinne-honored Ameri-
can policy of cultivating friendly rela-
tions with all nations and comforting
/ 2-Because the real purpose of the
celebration is to single out England
for marks of special favor and to
demonstrate to other Powers that the
exceptional friendship of this Govern
ment for England will be factor to
be considered in any conflict, either
diplomatic or armed, between the lat
ter and any other<Power We declare
that anything which would create such
a misunderstanding would be Injurious
of public funds for such an unwise
and Improper purpose.
3.-Because the suggestion recent
~ made IN Canada that Joint military
and naval reviews of British and
United States forces to be a feature
of the centenary shows that its real
lands enemies, notably Germany, thai
England and the United States stand
together With all Europe practically
an armed camp and with grave dan
history breaking out on that continent
we believe that the United States
should be mindful of the advice OF
George Washington and avoid foreign
entanglements and complications.
4.-The statements made in Cover
General Assembly that all the States
except California have appointed COM
nittees to participate in the proposed
celebration is erroneous and mislead-
secure appropriations for this purpose
in New York New Jersey, Massachu-
sets and other States had to be a,ban-
doned last year because of popular
opposition.
| AS citizens and taxpayers, having
at heart, we demand that our repre-
senta tives in the State Legislature, re-
gard1ess of party afftliation, vote
against such g. misuse of public funds

HARTFORD GOLF CLUB
SPLIT ON QUESTION OF
SUNDAY RECREATION

Much interest has been aroused in
local club circles by the agitation in
the Hartford Golf Club on the ques-
zion of Sunday golf. Bridgeport golf
enthusiasts fortunate enough to belong

E.ountered serious difficulty when they
Telt the lure OF the links on the Sab
hath and have mede it a practice to
play golf seven days a week if they

In Hartford, however, the situation
has become highly strained, and the

WOMEN'S COLLEGE is
DENIED EMINENT DOMAIN
GIVEN BY LEGISLATURE

No decision of recent date has caus-
ed much more discussion among law
yers than that of Judge William S.
Case, handed down in the New Lon
don County superior court Saturday,
denying the right of eminent domain
to the Connecticut College for Women
though that right had been conferred
by act of the legislature The act
ernor Baldwin and Shads his approval.
In his discussion of the matter Judge
Case says in part:
eff the right may be conferred
upon a purely private corporation, en-
gagged in project for the higher
education OF women, and clothed
with absolute discretion to deternine
not only what that broad term M cans,
but what limitations shall be attached
to it in the policy of the college work,
and what part of the public shall, in
fact, be permitted to share directly
in its benefits, it is difficult to see
why q chartered hotel company, en-
gagged in mfnisterfng without dis
elimination, to the public needs and
undeniab1y working to the public
not fairly enough demand the same
privilege
The expectation is that the trustees
of the Women's College will take the
matter to the supreme court as that
is the only hope they have, because
Judge Cases decision is clearly against
them. The opinion, however should
the case be appealed, leaves. the ques-
ton of the constitutionality of that
feature of the act squareHy for the
supreme court.

WOMAN'S SCREAMS
ALARM ,HOLICE BUT
THEY FIND NO ONE

While doing duty near the Union
Metallic Cartridge Company's plant,
at an early hour this morning, Patrol
men VIM. l. Cal1an and NJ. J. Flood
heard distinct cries of a woman in
dire distress. They described the
means and cries to be of the most pitt
able kind and from the direction of
the brook, behind the buildings.
Reporting the matter by telephone
to Sergeant John O'Connell, at the
second precinct station, they secured
the surrounding section and by order
of the night sergeant watchmen in the
factory also made a thorough search
over the property. but no trace of a
human being could be found and the
cries had after brief interval been
stiIled. A later search by daylight
failed to reveal the mysterious source
of the appeals for help.
