Our correspondent seems to have misread the editorial in question. His views seem to be the same as ours as expressed in that writing. We are not arguing for the railroad, we are pride- fully pointing to the fact that New Britain has made good despite the handicap. Would it have been larger. more industrious with main line railroad station? Possibly, but no man can tell with a certainty. However, we thank the writer for calingaattention to his construction of the thought be- hind our words. We wish to know how our expressions of opinion are understood by our readers.-(EdD.

 KILLING HEIFER
But Humane Society Agents
 Bullet Ended Animals Suffering
Especial to the Herald.)


 Burlington, Sept. 1S.--In an at tempt to shoot heifer of Abner Gouline of Burlington, which was alleged to have mistreated, an agent of the Connecticut Humane society from Hartford shot off one of his own fingers accrding to testimony brought out at trial of Gouline last night before Justice John F. Hagan, when the accused man appeared in answer to neglect of his farm anil mals. The agent held the heifer with one hand against a barn door and the the trigger was pulled on the revolver the animal moved and the bullet tore away a finger but the bullet killed the victim. The agent tainted and upon recovering an- nounced to Gouline that he was un- der arrest.
 When tried, Gouline's case was nolled after defense had been pre- scented by Attorney James T. Mather of Bristol. An attempt to call the prosecuting town juror as witness for the state failed and the case was thrown out. Neighbors of the ac, cused man testified that there had been no gross neglect or such as had caused the attention to be called.
 The injured agent did not appear in court as his colleague from the humane organization took his place on the witness stand and neither could the name of the erring marks, man be learned.

 Chairman Shaver asserted he had received from Senator Pittsman, democrat, Nevada, who was in Dem yer with the democratic nominee, a message expressing confidence that Davis would carry the western states in which he had spoken, Nebraska and Colorado.

 "It would be we'll on this day to hearlSen back to tho days of the re- cent conflict. When our country called to its defense man power and resources there were no questions of religious or raoiai affiliation asked and all eagerly nocked to do service. Today there are assembled among us, representatives of every race and creed, again willing. each to do his part.
 "Wopld 1t not be lasting benefit eccruihg from our observance of Defense Day, If we carry Into our daily lives that same spirit of serv- ice, unmarred by any thought of racial or religious hatred or preJu- 6ice--would 1t not be genuine de- fense of our glorious constitution to permeate such ideals as these would not the City of New Britain have gained in a practical way from our observance of Defense Day?
 q am pleased to take part in the services of a day, the exercises of which are based on the principle of service. The committee Ia to be congratulated upon its work and each of you Is to be commended upon your splendid spirit. Let not the ideals that you so forcibly pre- sent today be soon forgotten, but let them mould themselves into your everyday life. Then you will have rallied to the. defense of your na- tion."
 Mrs, Mary T. Crean sang "Amer- lea, the Beautiful" Rev. Dr. Abel A. Ahlquist, pastor fthe First Luth- eran church, delivered the principal address of the afternoon, in which he emphasized that Defense Day was not observed with any militaristic purpose nor to frighten other na- tions but rather to take an account of our strength, The audience sang 'The Star Spangled Banner" and the exercises were concluded with a prayer by Rev.

 During these exercises, the Ma tional Guard companies had been gathering at the southern end of the park and laying wires, and at the conclusion of the ceremonies at the bandstand they staged sham battle which made favorable impression.
