LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
Mir. Jodoin's Explanation.

MT. Editor: In your issue Of this Tuesday, morning there appears a story under the heading, "Jodoin Meets Defeat for the First Time" It goes on to tel how the first selectman of Sprague for 14 years was beaten in Mondays town election bv John c. Stevens, who led by the narrow mar gin of ten votes the man who on two previous occasions had defeated him for first Selectman.
 Let US get down to the facts behind this Jodoin defeat in Jodoin's home town.
 One week ago poker joint that for some months had been running, on the quiet, in the village of Baltic was raided at 1 in the morning by the To- cal police office. who Is also deputy sheriff of New London county. MT. McGuire got eight young fellows, who ! were tried at that morning and fined. This early morning raid naturally stirred up quite bit of feeling in the village. where the eight prisoners, all | good fellows, have their homes arr | -heir friends. I was informed by + alleged proprietor of the raided p'n
 hat he represented 31 legal vote. of the town of Sprague that woU | cast a straight republican ballot
 I did not peremptorily discharge Nc Guire from his position as local police l officer.
 l I gave my informant an empha | ffltS1I Uc EphcT .iulul 1S C OSe | McGuire is still the village cop Q | -odoi is still member of the boa l of Selectmen. I wish to make it !; plain as language can that if I car l not have an office without tacitly gi' | ing my consent to the existence of | place like the one that was raide ] in Baltic. then do not want an offic I would prefer to stay in private lif
 and let it go at that.

I have no regrets al | all for an office lost by action such l as took in this instance.
 For 48 years I have been a resident I of Battle. That village is my home

GUIDING THE YOUTH.

In the city of Chicago, as in other large cities, efforts are continually re- quired for the handling of the gang young men who live in the streets for the evil and excitement which are pos =!bIe. It Is confronted with the prob lem of dealing with the boys, the young men and women, who are in- cIined in ways which are tending to lead them beyond the point of re- straint. Such means detriment not only to the city, but to the individuals as well.
 Chicago is big city. The youth problem there may be larger and diff ferent than in smaller communities be- cause of the multitudinous attractions of a great city, but 1t Is a fact never the1ess that the proper direction of youth, boy or girl, cannot be neg ected with the expectation that they will b. able to rise above the influence of the circles in which they move.
 There is no uncertain influence which rests with and must be exerted in the home. It Is there that the first great responsibility must be recognized and assumed, even to the point of drawing the line between wisdom and over- indulgence. If the parental attitude is that of neglect in either direction, in- stead of directing the children to be useful members of society. dire result: are possible. The youth from too goot a home is as open to disastrous re- suits as the one from too bad a home The municipality and the state have their part to play after certain tim, in the handing of such problems, bu great share of that work is possible of elimination by the right preparation at the proper time.

 Thus it is made evident how broad are the powers of the holder of that office. Others have realized the ne- cesssty of coming to the assistance of the country, or sections of it, at the time Of panic or for the purpose of aiding in the movement of crops, but state loans add new feature.

Mir. Editor:-
 In few days hence the curtain on the open season of 1914 will have been rung up, and from all indications, we shall have experienced most favor able breeding and matching season. which promises a plentitude of game to the sportsmen this fall enjoying recreative day in the fields and wood lands, with dog and gun. And I trust that my admonishing all sportsmen, In fact all devotees of this exhilirat- ing and health promoting sport will use moderation in their killing, and give a considerable thought to the other fellow, who comes after them. Remember, simply because the oppor- tuTtty presents itself not to abuse the privilege. But bear in mind some less fortunate comrade with as good title maybe held in check by business or the duties and responsibilities of a clerk ship. who cannot avail himself of the unrestricted opportunity coming after you, yet grateful enough to enjoy the fragments of the feast you enjoyed. Hence by little forethought and mod eratfon on your part you ran make satisfactory opportunity for him. If you will kindly heed this little sug- gestion and apply the Golden Rule. you will experience greater satisfaction on your return from your outings, for having done kind and thoughtful | deed by having used little self re- sLIdlhl, to 2roV1de several days Of pleasure for some Tess fortunate than yourself.
 But this is not the main feature of my treSpassing on your valued col umns. There are certain parties com ing from neighbor1ns states, who | chuck the bluff, that by hanging an ! old coat or storing an old trunk with waste, in some friends house or home | they establish a residence and with the privileges of taking out resident s license at SIPS, and thereby getting all tho accruing benefits Ignoring the non-residert's license of s1o.25 they pride themselves that they have per- formed clever trick. This passed l muster last season. But I warn all such parties. good and plenty, they win
 be closely watched. and if they at- l tempt any such evasion of the law this year, they must take the conse- auences. This is fin simple justice to | the resident sportsmen and partes suf-
 ficientIy honorable to take out a non-
 resident license when visiting our
 state. Therefore give all such par- ties. friends or strangers an honorable
 warning. that if they try amp such
 fiimsy subterfuge they shall be hauled up with 4 sound turn. Or else the
