Contest over delegations whose seats were
contested, were all settled Saturday and re-
port of majority of the committee sustained.
The tempest of enthusiasm that broke out
for Blaine at 8 a. m.. Saturday. was without
a parallelen this continent and exceededany
demonstration ever witnessed during all the
exciting years of the war. It lasted full
forty minutes and ended only from sheer
exhaustion of his admirers. Eugene Hale
was lifted bodily on the shoulders of his
delegation, and as he went up high. in air,
dramatically seized the Maine guidon and
lifted it up to the folds of the waving and
overhanging stars and stripes. Had a ballot
been taken, no one doubts that Blaine would
then and there have been overwhelmingly
nominated.

THE PLATFORM.
The republican party in national conven-
tion assembled. at- the end of twenty years
since the federal government was first com-
mitted to its c ,‘submits to the people~
of the United States this brief report of its
administration. It suppressed a rebellion
which had armed nearly a million of men to
subvert the national annuity. It recon—-
structed the union of. the states with free-
dom instead of all as its corner stone,
It trsusf ed 4.000. of human beings
frOmthe essof thingstotheraukof
citizens. It relieved congress from the in—
famous work of hunting fugitive slaves, and
it to see that slavery does not exist.
It has raised the value of our paper currency
from 38 per cent to the par of gold. . It has
restored upon a solid basis payment in coin
us acurreucy awolutely good and equal in
every of our extended country. It has
lifted the credit of the nation from the point
where 6 per cent bonds sold at 86 cents, to
that where 4, r ceiitI gondgstzr‘e eagerl‘y
sou ht ate remium. n eri minis r -
810118 railwa‘ys have increased from 81,000
miles'in 1860 to more than 82,000 miles in
1879. Our foreign trade has increased from
87,000,000 to $1,150,000,000 iu-the same
time, and our exports, which were $20,000,-
000 less than our imports in 1860, were
$264,000,000 more than our imports in 1879.
Without rcsortin to loans, it,has sice the war
closed, defray the ordinar expenses of
government besides the worn ng interest on
the public debt, and has {annually disbursed
more than $30,000,000. for soldiers' pensions.
It has paid $888,000,000 of the ublic debt,
and by refundingthe balance at ower rates
has reduced the annual interest charge from
nearly 0151 000,000 to less than $89,000,000.
All the industries of the country. have re-
vived, labor is in demand, wages have in—
crossed, and throughout the entire country
there is evidence of a coming prosperity
greater than we have ever enjoyed.
Upon this record the republican party asks
for the continued confidenccnud support of
the pcbple, and this convention submits for
their approval the followmg statements of
the principles purposes which will con-
tinue to uidc nd inspire its efforts:
First—gWe affirm that the work of the last
twenty-one yearshasbeen such as to com-
mend itself to the favor of the nation, and
that the fruits of the costly victories which
we have achieved through immense difiicul-
ties should be preserved; that the peace re-
gained should be cherished; that the dis-
severed Union, now bappilyiiestored, should
be perpetuated. and that the hberties secured
to this neration should be transmitted un-
dlminifleed to future generations _; that 'the
order established and the credit acquired
should never be impaired; that the pensions
promised should be extinguished by the full
payment of every dollar thereof; that the
reviving industries should be further pro-
moted, and that the commerce, already
i, should be steadily encouraged. .
nd—The constitution of the United
States is a supreme law and not a more con-
tract; out of confederated states it made a
sovereign nation. Some powersare denied
to the nation. while others are denied to the
states. but the boundary between the powers
delegated and those reserved is to be deter—
mined by the natioual and not the state tri-
burials.
Third—The work of popular education is
one left to the care of the several states, but
it is the'dut of the national government to
aid that work to the extent of its constitu-
tional duty. The intelligence of the nation
is but the aggregate of e intelli now in the
several states, and the destiny 0 the nation
must be guided not by the genius of any one
state, but b the average genius pf all. . _
Fourth—The constitution wisely forbids
co to make any law respecting an es-
tsb t of religion, _
that the nation can be pro _ against the
influence of sectarienism while each state is
to its domination. We therefore
recommend that the constitution be amended
as to lay the same prohibition upon the legis-
lature of each state. and to forbid the appro-
priation of ublic funds -to the support of
sectarian sc ools. '
Fifth—We affirm the belief avowed in 1876
that the duties levied for the purpose of rev.—
enue should so discriminate as to favor
American labor; that no further grant of
the public domain should be made to any rail~
way or other corporation; that slavery hav-
- iii perished in the states, its twin-barbarity,
gamy must die in the territories; that
gseiywhefe the protection accorded to citi-
zens of American birth must be secured to
citizens by Ainericsn adoption, and that we
esteem it the duty of congress to develop and
improve our water courses and harbors, but
insist that further subsidies to private per-.
sons or ceigporations shall cease; that the ob—
ligations o the republic to the men who pre-
undiminished by the lapse of the fifteen
years since their final victory—to do them
perpetual honor is, and shall forever be, the
flieful privilege and sacred duty of the
erican people. . - . _
Sixth—Since the authority to regulate im-
gyrati' “on and intercourse between the Uni—
' States and its treaty-making powers, the
republican party, regardin g-the unrestricted
immigration of the hinese as an evil of
great magnitude invoke the exercise of those
powers to restrain and limit that immigra-
tion by the enactment of such just, humane
and reasonable provisions as will produce
thatresult. , -
Seventh—That the purity and patriotism
which characterized the earlier ctfreer of
Rutherford B. Hayes in peace and was, and
which guided the thoughts of our immediate
predecessors to him for a presidential can-
didate have continued to inspire him in his
career as chief executive, and that history
will accord it; his sdminisbh “1:31): the hgnoriili
dlschargedo.te u‘c ess,an wi
hosor his interpositidnhbetween the people
an proposed we.
Eight —We 11 n the democratic
y the habitual sec cc of patriotism and
ustice to a supreme and insatiable lust of
ofileeandpetronage; thatto obtain posses-
sion of the national and state governments
and the control of place and position they
have obstructed all effort to promote -the
purity and to conserve the freedom of suf-
e, and have devised fraudulent certifi-
cations and returns; have labored to unseat
lawfully elected members of congress. to
secure at all hazards the vote of a majority
of the am in the house of representatives;
have endeavored to occupy by force and
fraud the plawe of trust given to' others by
the peoole oijaine,andrescued by the coura-
eous action of Maine's triotic sons; have
y methods vicious in principle and tyran-
nical in practice, attached partisan legislation
to appropriation bills, upon whose passage
the very movements of the government tie-
pend, and have crushed the rights of indi-
viduals; have advocated the principles and
sought the favor of rebellion against the na-
tion, and have endeavored to obliterate the
sacred memories of the war, and to overcome
its ineetimably valuable results of the na-
tionality, personal freedom and individual
equality. . .
Theequei. ateaddy and complete enforce-'
ment of, laws an the protection of all our
citizens. in the enjoyment of all privileges
andimmunities guaranteed by the constitu-
tion are the first duties of the nation. The
dangers of asolid South-can onlybe averted
by a. faithful performance of every promise
which the nation has made tothe citizen.
The execution of the laws and the punish-
ment of all those who violate them are the
only safe br‘iaiethods lfidwhic‘llil an endur'iing
peace can secured gen ne prospe ty
established throughout the south. Whatever
promises the nation makes the nation must
perform, and the nation cannot with safety
relegate this duty to the states. ' The solid
south must be divided by the peaceful agen—
cies of the ballot, and all opinions must there
find free expression. and to this end the hon-
est voters must be protected against terrorism
violence or fraud.
- And we affirm it to be the duty and the
rpose of the republican party to use every
‘timate means to restore all the states of
t Union to the most perfect harmdhy.that
may be practicable, and we submit it to the
practical, sensible people of the United
States to say whetherit would not be danger.
one to the dearest/interests of our country at
this time to surrender the administration of
the national government to the party which
seeks to overthrow the existing policy under
which we are so prosperous, and thus bring
distrust and confusion where there are now
r, confidence and hope. ' _
be‘rgfiubliceu party, adhering to the priu.
ci lea med by the last national convention
respect for the constitutional rules overn-
a ment to office, adopts the eclsra-
on 0 President Hayes that the reform in
civil service shall be thorough radical and
com late; to that end it demands the co—op-
erat on of the legislative with the executive
departments of the government, and that
congress shall so legislate that fitness, ascer—
tained by proper practical tests, shall admit
b ic service.

The Stamford and Norwalk Telephone
Company has voted to purchase the Bridge-
port district, of which mention has previously
been made. "The price asked for it was
86,000. We believe, however, that it is not
the intention of the company to connect
Bridgeport with the Norwalk and Stamford
districts, because they are limited, as we un-'
derstand it, to a radius of fifteen miles to
each district. It is expected. however, that
a through or “trunk" line between New
York and :Oton will eventually be estab-
lished, when patrons here will be allowed to
connect with it and converse with other par-
ties iu any city on- the line for a smell extra
fee.

The Concord Division folks were unfortu-
nate in the selection of dates for a festival
under the tent, but succeeded in drawing
enough people to pay expenses, and a trifle
over. The tent was a very nice one, new and
clean, and water proof, and very desirable
for such entertainments. The ladies had a
good display of flowers, with an abundance
of refreshments. Lewis P. June gave an
amusing sleight of hand performance,by way
of variety, which was well received. Sev-
eral ladies and gentlemen favored the eu-
dieuce with music, and there was a contest

While engaged in cleaning house, on
Wednesday afternoon last, at her home in
South Norwalk,Miss Mary Creamer was taken
suddenly sick. When the doctors arrived

and 'she died before dark. She was the eldest
of several children, and worked in one of the
factories to support and keep them together,
as their parents were both dead.
Last 2 Sunday afternoon the temperance

colored minister formerly from the South.
As the ballots were coming in yesterday
thick and fast, Fred Mead took in the situa-

his reputation for the excellence of his cream

WILL Toxx:
For the Gazette.
HARTFORD, CONN, June 5th, 1880.
Editors Gazette—The execution of Ham-
lin—his real name was Michael Higgins—
has left a good deal of public feeling, not of
the most healthful kind. If there is such a
thing as wilful murder, in the eye of the law,
there is no doubt that poor Shipman was
murdered, and that Allen—his name is Smith
—and Hamlin were the guilty parties. And
probably no one who has taken the trouble to
investigate the facts doubts now that Allen
was the more guilty of the two, and that he
fired the fatal shot while Hamlin was absent.
But as the law then was, Hamlin elected to
be tried by the Court, the judges. It was a
strange choice, We have never been able to
understand the advice Of his counsel, if the
choice was made by their advice. Bound by
the law and the evidence it was impossible
for the judges to render any other verdict
than they did—that of guilty. Allen with
shrewder counsel elected to be tried by a
jury, and as a result of five trials goes to
states-prison for life. The apparent injus—
tice adds to the strong disgust with which
our system of trial by jury has long' been
burdened. '
Hamlin was hung on Friday of last week.
Forty-eight hours after and within twelve or
thirteen miles of the execution, at most bru-
tal double murder was committed on two
worthy inoffensive old ladies, in the quiet of
tfieir own home, on the Sabbath. Thus far
no clue has been obtained to the murderer or
murderers, and no motive proved.
The suspected motive, the .destmction of a
will, is the same as that which led to the ex—
traordinary murder of Capt. White in Salem,
Mass, many years ago, in which case Web-
ster made his magnificent speech. The folly
’of one of thfiiarties in that case led to the
discovery of the murderers. It is to be
hoped that something of the kind may open
the way to a similar result in this. Other-
wise it looks new as if this might remain
among the mysterious crimes of the age. z.
