JULY t4TH.

Tomorrow is the national holiday of
 france France, the nation that has
 hosen as it's motto, ''Liberty, Equal
 V and Fraternity. If our beloved
 .lly had no other claim to esteem
 nd respect, her slogan alone would BeopIes. But especially must we in he United States revere the grand
 epubIic with principles which har- nonize fully with those for which our ,ncestors fought and died, and for which several million American sol hiers today are ready to make the Supreme sacrifice.
 Tomorrow we have 3 solemn obli- ration, namely, to assist in some way < n observing this great event. Wheth- ssr it be by displaying a flag. or a ' hot stand idle while other cities
 throughout the country pay tribute to France. The land of Lafayette has a particular claim upon us and upon our sympathies. That we realize this gfuIly has been demonstrated time and Sagain. When Marshal Joffre, the hero of the Marne, visited this coun- try. he was rendered an ovation such as is seldom given a foreigner coming 10 our shores. The members of the French High Commission have had ample opportunity to observe through out the United States the esteem in which their country is held. But the best proof of all, the one fact, in the light of which all else fades into in significance, is the presence of our soldiers in Picardy, fighting with the sons of France to save that land and to preserve democracy. The love that exists between France and Am erica has been sealed with the blood of the two countries soldiers. and every day the bonds of affection are being welded more closely together by deeds of love and heroism in the battle against the common enemy.
 France has fought many bitter fights. She has literally bled from
 every pore. But she never fought
 more gloriousIy nor in a more righte- ous cause than at the present time

Soldiers From Prison.
Toronto Mail and F,mpire)

(TOrOntO Mau and FfmplrG)
 From time to time questions arises suggestions are made in the United State such as were discussed in Can ada in our first year of the war and the latest is that brought forward by Mrs. BallingtOn Booth, who urges that the State prison WarderS through out the country should be called upon to select from among the criminals i'll their charge, 5000 men to be added to the American army. Tn Canada the matter of permitting convicted criminals to go to the front has come uD more than once, but so far as we recall there was never any sugges- ton of a wholesale jail delivery. Judges were appealed to in behalf of individuals about to be sentenced, and almost invariably the decision was in the negative. The idea operat- ing in the mind of the judges was that to be a soldier was a great honor, and that the men in uniform would feel insulted if they were cOm
 pelled to welcome as comrades thugs, burglars and perhaps men guilty of worse crimes That Is likely to be the reason put forward by the Ameri- can authorities If they reject the plea for the condemned criminal advanced by Mrs. Booth
 On the other hand there is some thing to be said in favor of the pro- posal Perhaps the strongest thing to be said is that he cOnVicts are likely make good soldiers. Mrs Booth says that they are just as patriotic as any other class of citizens. But apart from their patriotism there is no reason to suppose that they would not be hardy. enterprfsing and stub born fighters The penitentiary would he aa likely as most institutions to provide volunteers for a fOrlorn hope. The convist, if brigade Of them were approved, need not aSSoc1ato with other troops. It should he easy to make regulations that would re- move any fear or the ordinary sol 1 diers being contaminated. If the SO 1 called honor system as adopted Tn 1 several American penal institutions 1 has been as successful as its adVo- ! CateS maintain there ought to be no 1 fear of trusting the criminals to bear 1 themselves like true men In the pres ] once of the enemy, to obey ana re- i spect their officers as other soldiers | do. Apart from adding 10 the miI-
 tary strength of the army, to permit ] convicted criminals to join it's ranks would be to provide them with a 1 supreme opportunity to make atone ment to the counry whose laws they have violated. Whatever their offences

yCN HERTLING'S SPEECH.

Imperial Chancellor von Hert1ing took occasion during the debate on the general political situation, now under way in the Reichstag, to assert that "Preident Wilson wants war un- til we are destroyed". If by we" von Hertling identifies the great mass of German people With the Hohenzol 1ern and Prussianism, then perhaps he is right despite himself. for Amer ica has declared that this war must make an end of autocracy. If the Germans are willing to submit indeti- nitely to the yoke of the war lord. then they must be prepared to share his fate. All that military tyranny represents must be destroyed, and all who adhere to It's principles must fall when it falls. This does not mean, of course, that we are seeking the corporal destruction of the people of Germany, nor of their rulers, for that matter. It means simply d de- struction of the spirit of world con- quest "uACA lldS IbhSll OGSp lOOL Ill their leaders souls and which urged sovereign and subject alike to precip- itate the great war. They must be | punished for this terrible crime and l they must be restricted sufficiently 1 to exclude the possibility of a repiti- 1 ton of such a catastrophe.
 The one refreshing part of von 1 Hertling's speech Is the avowal that 1 Germany has no intention of retain l ing Belgium when peace is declared. l That, however is not enough. Ger
 many must make full restitution for l the awful wrongs which Von Hert- l ling's predecessor officially admitted i have been committed against Belgi-
 um. But it is not to be expected that
 the present chancellor will make any
 such promise now. Nor is it neces-
 sary The Allies will take care of that
 point and all others when they pre-
 side at the peace conference. So 1t
 does not matter really, whether Ger l many agrees now to do this or that.
 She will be compelled to do exactly what the leaders of the civilization
 bid her to do when final victory has
 crowned their efforts.

HENRY"

The enforcement of the work or fight order will come under the d. rection of the local draft boards. The police have not been given any or ders on it's application and whatever is done will undoubtedly be under the supervision of the draft boards. The general understanding of the law is that those coming within the re- Quirements Of the order can be as- sisted to get employment through the draft boards. The construction of the instructions regarding furnishing work is not at all to the liking of some of the mem bcrs of local boards. One of the draft board members said his interpretation of the order was that the employment is to be provid- cd by IartfotG employment bureau The member did not like that lan- guage, termipg it the work of Hart ford politicians" Any here who might come within the meaning of the law who wanted to get q position would. if sent to Hartford. probably E sent to some Hartford employer. In that way Hartford would benefit. The plan that will probably be ap- piled here will be 10 furnish cards to draftecs and place them in the way of getting work to do in this city.
 As yet the enforcement of the. ''wor< or fight order has not been undertaken, Those coming within the meaning of the orders have of their own accord taken places so that they become producers and thero. is a noticeable absence of street loungers about the city. It is be- lieved that some of the army eligibles are still employed in places which are banned and in a short time the aus thorities will get after them.

Caval- laro and Irotnrr- uf G1-67 Minor street New Haven. rouuccGcut, have been ordered by the Food admin;stra- tlon to suspend their business at midnight, July b The CavalIaro firm is the largest Italian wholesale grocery house in New Haven and does a big business among the Italians Ill the southern part of Connecticut. For some time the food administration for Connecticut has had information tending to confirm reports that the CAalIarOs were violating the rcgu- jauonS covering the sales of flour aud sugar, both aS 10 quantity and price

Just a few lines to let you know that Bill and l are feeling fine and also in the best of health Hop ing this letter will find you all the same
 "Well dad how is every thing in little old N. B? Fine I hope. Every thing 'over here is great, as the Roche would well tell you eff they could) They got taste of real old Connecticut fighting not long ago which certainly opened their eyes. And they will not tackle us in hurry after that or they would have got a double dose We were q bunch of sore boys at that fight and we are sore yet, So if they come over again Why-there won't be any that will go back, as they did last time. And even so. the ones that went back were a sorry looking lot, I'll say.
 If you were only over here, dad to see what my chum and I did, why l don't know what you wcNld say. We went out into No Mans Land ln broad daylight (thru trenches) and spotted four Germans working on a-. Two of them I know will never handle or shoot a rifle again The other two, you would have laughed your head off to see the way they fell over each other to get underr cover. But in the meantime we did not see another working party off tn our right. of ten or twelve, that had to use the same trench we were In, in order to get back to their own lines, so Ross and l just looked at one another and you ought to see us beat it back to our lines. We didn't want any BOche to get us if we saw them first, which we did, but it is all in the game. The next time Ca few days later) we went out VIC came back with a, Boche helmet and rifle, which Ross has now.
 Say dad, here is a little story a Roche told the French. A Boche came walking over the top and gave himself Up to the French, and the French said, Why didn't you give yourself up to tho Americans?' 'Bs~ cause the infantry is crazy and the artillery is more SO Can you imagine that? If you could only see the Americans in the trenches. dad, you would never wonder why he saidtz that. Why I saw one lad from my own Company that jumped mp on top of trench and shook his fist at the Boches just because shell landed near him. That and causes similar to that make them think that we are crazy But for all of that they said when it comes to fighting we are there. l could keep on writing dad. telling you of experiences that have happened to me but will close now. Will write more later, love to all.
