LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
A Plea.

MT Editor: $1.0G0 reward for in formation concerning the location of a nest containing an undamaSed setting of quail or partridge eggs. It sounds absurd doesn't it? Nevertheless, the United States government holds out a standing offer of the same sum for a nest of the wild carrier pigeon; and hardly fifty years ago these birds were being slaughtered by the hundreds as game birds. In twenty-five years our Connecticut game birds will have de- parted into oblivion with the once numerous carrier pigeon, and offers like the above will be in order.
 Last winter was a hard one for the birds, and the few survivors had diff culty in raising their broods on ac- count of a wet spring. Therefore. the game birds this year are even more scarce than in previous years. It is distinctly up to the present-day sportsman to do his part toward the conservation of our fast-vauishing game birds. Although much has been done toward the advancement of game propagation, the results accomplished have been far overbalanced by the number of birds killed.
 This year marks a crisis in the game conditions of our state; therefore, brother sportsman when you go into the field this year remember the fate of the wild carrier pigeon. Kill only few birds this year; or better still, put closed season on birds and give them a chance to recuperate. Your re- ward will come in the satisfaction of knowing that you have done your part in checking the extermination of our Connecticut game birds.

one of the many kinspeople of the Magyars about whom there has been heated controversy for years. Szekely- Udvarhely is in the heart of the Szelders, 450.000 of whom are closely settled in the mountainous region ex- tending from Kronstadt on the south near the Roumanian border, to Ma ros- -Vasarhely to the northwest
 According to the traditions of the -Szekely- -UdVarhely citizens themselves. the Seekers are descended from a band of Attila's Huns who settled in this part of Hungary after a severe reverse Of their leader. perhaps fol- lowing his great defeat by Aetius and Theodoric on the CataIaunian plains, near the French city of Troyes. on which occasion the number of slain in one days fighting was Valiously estimated at from 175,00O to 3cO 009. But much more interesting account Of the Seekers origin and one which aWakens in them a more responsive chord of patriotism is that they were
 Magyars who were transpQanted to this rugged region in the eleventh
 against the constant encroachments of
 the Pechenegs and other savage tribes
 that threatened the kingdom of Hun gary. Ladislaus I is credited with
 the scheme of this frontier guard and 1t was only one of the many acts dur ing his reign which made him the
 most widely beloved ruler of his coun- try during the middle ages. All Hun- gary was plunged into mourning for
 three years after his death. which oc-
 cured in 1895. and he was Worshiped
 as saint long before he was form ally canoniZed.

 one of the rocky northern gateways between ROumania and Transylvanisl The important Saxon town of SegeSVaI (pronounced Sheggesh- but pre- senting fewer linguaa difficulties ii designated by it's German name o1 Schassburg), is only 30 miles by raj l to the west. It was near the latter city that the great Hungarian lyric poet Petoff fell in battle with the Russians in 1849.

these elements in greater number, while at the same time the process of amalgamation continues with the re- sUlt-a homogeneous race race. It is not unreasonable to assume, that the strain of Anglo Saxon blood which it contains is inconsiderable.
 The inheritance and inspiration of Americans are the historic deeds of all Europe. Each takes pride in the achievements of the race, or races, he descended from. What binds us to-
 gether as a nation in this generation is not identity of race, but community of interests, institutions, and aspira- tions, and aspirations, noc, the past,
 but rather the future.
 During this period patriotism of race, practised by many races that form our commonwealth, is more de-
 structive to our national existence
 than religious intolerance, sectional
 animosity or class hatred. The An
 glo-SaXon. of all these races is the
 only race that attempts to force the
 entire nation into it's allegiance.
 Perhaps it is more just to say that
 certain individuals of that race at
 tempt it. A man at this time holding
 one of the highest offices in the gift
 of the American people, was the first
 public man in America to use the of
 fensiTe term Hyphenated American,
 and he used it long before the Euro
 pean war in speech that was an in
 suit to the whole Irish race. His ceaseless activity in f1inging insult
 and accusations of disIoyaity against
 citizens of foreign birth or descent
 who criticize him for his jelly-fish
 foreign policy still continues.
 God pity the man who by his in- sinuations. and accusations, seeks to
 divide US into groups. and classes. for he is shaking the very foundations of our republic. Our personal liberty i- the right to express private opinion and organize public opinion against public men whose policies and actions seem wrong or dangerous. As to the speech where the hyphen was inject ed, the dedication of the Barry monu- ment at Washington, May 16. 1914 President Wilson had been invited, | and had declined to attend At the | last moment he changed his mind and notified the committee he would at tend.
 He praised John Barry as if he was 1 the only Irishman who had ever done anything for America and he implied that all the rest were actuated by unworthy motives.
 We find in the following sentences, John Barry was an Irishman but his heart crossed the Atlantic with him. Again he said. some Americans need hyphenS in their names because only | occasion he used Jack Barry as a blackjack to hit Jack Barry's country men with. Anyhow this hyphen cpl l thet is the invention of the knoWnoth- ings and it's use today in reference to certain citizens, is unerring indica . ton of know-nothing leanings. How many voters of the class who have | thus been stabbed in the back, will l support a man at the polls in Novem- Der who has seen fit to cast reproach on their character as citizens? J. H. CUMMINGS. Norwich, Conn, Oct. 12, 1916.

THE RAYoNNE STRIKE.

It is a most unfortunate situation which has developed at Bayonne, N. J., in connection with the strike of the oil and chemical workers. The resort to force for the purpose of se- curing demands can get little sym pathy and it is most distressing that conditions are such that lives are taken and people badly injured in the preservation of law and order.
 It cannot help being thought that those who are in charge of the strik- ing worlmen have either furnished completely failed in their efforts to suppress the vicious minded. That the men have a right to strike cannot be questioned. They cannot be forced to work under conditions which they will not accept, but that does not give them the right to destroy property, to attackFby missiles and firearms those whose duty it is to maintain order or to encourage riots and bloodshed.
 The folly of such methods have been fully demonstrated in the past and the duty of those who are directing the strikers in the demands which they are making is to urge them to an orderly conduct of their strike. Ba- yonne appears to be having a small revolution and certain sections of the city are unsafe for the public to visit, but it is apparent that conditions are ,such that a firm policy must be ex- ercised. Rioting strikers cannot be tolerated and the sooner those in Ba- yonne are brought to this realization the better it will be for all concerned.
