The Storm.
The “line," or whatever else the furious
rain storm of last week may be called, seems
to have covered most of the area of country
cast of the Rocky Mountains, abd while in
parched and drought burned sections it has
proved of inealcuiable benefit, as a whole, it
must have proved a serious loss to the
property interests ofthe country. Bridges,
mills and dams, and other property have
been swept away. Crops injured largely,
railroads, canals and. roadways washed out,
and loss and damages are reported on every
hand. In Plainfield, New Jersey, several
lives are reported lost by the carrying away
of a city bridge while people were on it,
viewing the swollen floods beneath. It is
feared that serious marine disasters will yet
be reported involving more serious destruc-
tion of life and property. The rain full has
been exccmive and the storm the severest
and longest continued of any Of recent years.
There was a serious washout on the Harlem
Railroad this side of Williams Bridge,on Sat-
urday night, but the tracks were soon put in
order again, and no serious delay caused our
trains. The long, dry spell had so shrunken
up everything exposed to the sun, that there
was scarce a roof in town that did not leak,
while many business places were drenched?
l0
Killed on the Track.
On Saturday last, the down train on the
Wilson Point extension, struck and killed
an Italian laborer employed by the company,
near Palmer’s Hat Factory. The day being
stormy the men were not-at work, and the
deceased was walking on the track and did
not step far enough aside to clear the train.
The name of the deceased was Gustano
Gwizzo, aged 32 years, a native of Slillians,
Naples, Italy. The burial took place on
Sunday in the cemetery of St. Mary’s socie-
ty.
The dredging machine now lying at Wil-
son Point, will soon commence widening
and deepening the channel from the new
pier at the Point, to deep water near Bell
Island,so as to give a uniform depth of water
at ordinary low tide, of ten feet. This will
allow the steamer “Pegasus" to run with
greater speed when leaving and approaching
the pier.
m
The Steamboat.
It has been the railroads which have been
behind hand, the past week, both 'of our
rival boats being at their docks ahead of the
belated trains. The weather having been
stormy all the week, the new boat has shown
able sea-going powers, and, has proved that
she has the greater speed as well as more
size and strength. On Thursday with a
heavy sea and strong east wind the Pegasus
made Wilson Point from 28d street wharf,
in two hours and twenty-five minutes. The
Adelphi also made 'her usually good time;-
every night, despite the storm.

Organ Recitals.
Mr. Gibson’s organ recitals will please all
lovers of good music. The first is'to be held
on Tuesday evening Oct. 3d, when Mrs.
Clarenco Swan, of Bridgeport, will sing. See
adv. for full particulars.

The way things are going on. the Danbury
and Norwalk Railroad will soon need a
double track. What they need now, and
should have as soon as it can be constructed,
is a telephone service from station to station,
' from one end to the other. Already tele-
phone wires extend from Wilson Point to
the Fair Grounds, and, we understand, from
Danbnry to Brookside Park. With such a
service skilled operators at high salaries
would not be needed, and once completed
the benefits to be derived would soon pay
the cost. If such service had been in opera-
tion last Thursday, for instance, five hun-
dred passengers would not have been kept

from the Grand Central Depot and establish
a safer route with New York for its enor-

content to longer endure the chances of be-
ing ground between flying trains passing out
and in that tunnel every five minutes of the
day to the number of a hundred trains per .
day and all crossing each others tracks, on up-
proaching the depot at that.

At the special Town Meeting, Reports of
the Selectmen and Town Treasurer were of;-

Goon—It is asserted with a strong degree
of confidence, that at best two and possibly
three or more, gentlemen in town, would so-
cept the position of Selectmen, if urged there-
to by the unanimous call Offitheir fellow citi-
hens. It should be a source of supreme satis-
fsction, in times like these to know that we
have those among us whose hearts still best
warm and true to the cause of the union,
proving to a cold and selfish and unpatriotic
world. that “the country is safe."

OUR STATE CONVENTION.
Five Republican State Conventions were
held last Wednesday vim—Connecticut,
Massachusetts, New York, Missouri and 'Ne-
braska. Our Own was what may be justly
termed a most happy and successful one. A
gubernatorial and state ticket has been put
in the field not only of able and upright men
but carefully selected as to locality, as well
which has hitherto had so important a
bearing in our state politics.
The platform is worthy the Grand Repub-
lican party which saved thelUnion, when 5!;
sailed by democratic treason ; which has
raised our paper dollars to gold in value, has
paid the debt and paid scores upon scores of
millions to the disabled and wounded soldiers
who fought and shed their blood to vindicate
the National honor and defend the Nation’s,
flag. In the terse and patriotic sentences of
the Republican Platform will be found. the
key notes of the campaign upon which we
have now so suspiciously entered, and an en-
couraging pressage Of the victory sure to be
if Republicans but do their plainest duty, as
no one doubts that each and every one will.
GE General BULKELEY, who heads the ticket
it may truly be said that he is of the people,
with the people and from the people. By
force alone of his clear head and honest and
generous heart, he has won eminent distinc-
tion in business circles, while as presiding
officer of our Senate, he has displayed'a dig-
nity and fair-minded courtesy that won the
hearts of all who came in contact with him.
All the democratic “slop-ever" about
"trades" and “bargains" is the molest bosh,
and the Republicans of Connecticut will see
to it that he loses nothing of honest support,
because he was man enough and magnani-
mons enough to accept a second place on the
ticket two yeays ago, (when he and his
friends could have claimed and carried the
first) because such'action promised best to
promote harmony and secure the victory
that was won. _ _
Editor J onN D. CANDEE we have personally
known ever since a youth, when he worked
his way through Yale College unaided and
alone, by working at the printer’s case by
day and studying by night; and the public
know that ever since the Fremont Banners
were flung to the breeze in fifty-six, he has
been a faithful, arduous. and indefatigable
worker in the Republican vineyard. He has
never sought office and his highest ambition
has been to advance the principles of the
Republican party and zealously work to
elect its candidates. All honor to honest
and solid JOHN CANDEE, the pobr printer boy
of long mm and the able and fearless editor
of to-day. Every poor boy and proud father
in the State, will read the histories of Bulk--
eley and Candee and become stronger and
more manly, and couregous, by the inspira—
tions they afford. '
The address of Gov. Jewell at the opening
of the Convention and of Augustus Brandagee
at the close, were not only “words of truth
filly chosen," but. they carried a conviction
and enthusiasm, which will outlast the cam-
paign. The sham democracy were shown
that in this campaign there are blows to re-
cieve, as well as to give and the Republicans
of Connecticut. are only too glad to meet
them and confront them at every step, with
their disloyal, and hypocritical record. _
But the most assuring augury of our suc-
cess in November was the complete harmony
of the convention throughout all its delibera-
tions. Every delegate seemed intent on pro-
moting the unity and strength of the party.
Our own county had, in the person of Hon.
PmNEAs C. LOUNSBUBY, a candidate for
Governor which not only Fairfield County
unanimously. but large numbers of delegates
from other sections of the State were eager
to see placed in nomination, but Mr. L , with
that same patriotic and sensible magnanimity
that actuated Gen. Bulkeley two years ago.
restrained his friends from presenting his
name, although assured of from seventy-five
to one hundred votes on the first ballot if he
would permit a vote to be taken in his be-
half. In this we know Mr. L. to have been
moved by an unselfish and honorable, desire
-We greatly mistake the grateful spirit of our
republican friends throughout the state. if
his generous action is not as fittingly honor-
ed and rewarded two years hence, as has so
justly been done in the case of Lieut-Gov.
Buikeley, and we deem it no impropriety to
say now, that such is the reasonable expecta-
tion of our county.
Ex-Senator Lyman Coe, one of Litchfield
County’s deservedly popular Sons, was press-
ed for the 2d place on the Ticket in friendly
rivalry with Mr. Candee, and so great was
the personal regard for Mr. Coe, he surely
would have been the nominee, had it not been
for a recital of the “many honors” now and
of late,which haveEcome'to and been enjoyed
by the citizens of the mountain county, while
the poverty of Fairfield County in this re-
spect, was so apparent as to really win the
pitty of the Convention. As it was, Mr. Coe
failed of the nomination by only about a score
of votes. With Lounsbury, he can well af-
ford to hide his time, for what a victory in-
spiring ticket for 1884 will be Lounsbury do
Coe !
There was a spirited but entirely good-
natnred rivalry for Treasurer, while the can-
didates for Secretary and Comptroller. had,
in fact, no competition, so that all in all, it
was an unusually harmonious gathering of
the best representative men of the Republi-
can party of the state,which with ranks,s'olld
and unbroken by discord or disappointment,
will march unitedly to Vrcronr in November.
Gen. Harmon, for business reasons. having
declined to serve longer on the State Com-
mittee, his predecessor, Charles J. Cole of
Harttford, was chosen chairman of that
committee. Eben J. Hill of Norwalk, was
elected as State Committeemau for this the
New, 13111 Senatorial District. He will
make a zealous and efficient member and
take as naturally to his responsible duties as
a duck to the water.
THE PLATFORM.
The committee on resolutions reported
the following resolutions, which were read
by the Hon. Augustus Brandegee, of New
London:
The Republican party of Connecticut ro-
afilrms Its creed ,- all rights to all men. the
preservation invrolate of each and every
constitutional amendment; a free and ’fair'
ballot and the enactment and enforcement
of appropriate legislation to preserve the
rights upon which the integrity of our insti-
tutions rests; a tariff reduced and revised
not only for revenue only, but for the pro-
tection of American labor against the poorly
paid lador of the old world; the aboli-
tion of useless offices; equal taxation and a
rigid economy in all departments of the gov-
ernment for the nation and the states; the
protection of the rights and liberties of
American citizens at home and abroad; ed-
ucation under the fostering core of the gen-
eral and state governments whicbshall bring
its advantages to the home . of the bumblost
citizen; the purity‘of' the ballot box, and its
protection against intimidation, bribery and
corruption; appropriate legislation for the
encoura ement of commerce; reduction of
the bur ens of taxation, state, and national
and the limitation of gap-Milli“; o judi..
cious system of civil oer co reform by which
competent ofilcers shall be secured for the
public service, federal state sndmuuiclpsl.
and protected from assessment and removal
except for cause. '
The Republican party. as an earnest of its
futurc,refcrs to the record of itopast service,
both in war and in peace; to the‘oup unions
.of the rebellion, to the abolition o slavery,
\the-enfranchisement of a. race, the resump-
tion of specie payments, the preservation of
the honor of the country, the payment of its
debt, universal prosperity, of home and peace
with all nations.
It revers the memory of its martyred
Presidents, Lincoln and Garfield, and it cor-
dlaily endorses and supports the administra-
tion of President Arthur, who.by his motion
ty, his capacity and fidelity to the interests
of the people and by the wisdom and cour-
age of his public acts and utterances has
commended himself‘to the confidence and ID-
provsl _of his fellow citizenswlthout dtolinc-

We declare for the encouragement of state
industries, the support of the public schools,
a limitation upon special and private 1e
tion, and the of libero eneral we,
under which all the citizens oft 0 state shall
have canal rights and none shall enjoy exclu-
sive p vileges.
We declare that the growing influence of
the great corporations of the country on ht
to be jealously watched, that the assum t on,
of any undue power on their part obou d be
that the people must control the corporations
and not the corporations the people, should
be vigorously maintained.
We thank Governor Hobart B. Bigelow
and his associate officials of the state for
their efficient and satisfactory administration
of the government, and we take pleasure in
commending to the voters of Connecticut
the nominees of this convention, believing
them to be fit representatives of the princi-
ples set forth in this platform.
Many of .the principles enumerated were
greeted with applause, and the resolutions
were adopted unanimously.

First Congregational Church.
A meeting of this church was called last
week, for the purpose of selecting a commit-
tee to confer with the Rev. Jae. W. Hubbell
as to his willingness to consider and accept a
call from said church if deemed advisable,
but of all of its nearly five hundred members
not thirty were present. So little inter.
est being manifested, it was deemed judi-
cious to adjourn until a larger attendance
could he seemed. So far as is known, the
desire is general for the call of Mr. Hubbeil
and this very unanimity may account for the
slight interest taken in so very important a
matter as the settling of a new pastor, which
in yo olden time would have stirred that
church and this whole town from centre to
circumference.
Two Notable Men of the Orient.
It is known to only a few readers of the
GAzxrru that two Nestorian deacon: from
Persia have been spending the summer in
Norwalk... They came with the Rev. Peter
Z. Easton, brother of R. T. B. Eaton, Esqfl
one of the deacons of the First Church. and
have been working on the farm of the Mar-
vin Brothers,(two other deacon: in the same
church,)to procure the means of theological
instruction, which they have recently gone to
seek in the Union Seminary, in New York
city. Their names are Isaac Joseph Doomsn
and Term Michaiel.
While they were in Norwalk, they were
members of an adult Bible class in the Sun-
day school of the First Church, and seemed
heartily engaged in Bible study. On going
away, deacon Isaac gave to the teacher a
paper on which he ‘had written the Lord's
prayer in three languages, viz: Ancient
Syriac, Hebrew and Persian, .and his own
name in ten languages, viz : Ancient Syriac,
Hebrew, Persian, Arabic, Armenian, Turk-
ish‘, Tartar, Nestorian, French and English.
Their expectation is to return to their own
country as missionaries. On Sunday, a Nes-
torian priest came into the class with them
named Yohanan, a relative of Mar Yohanan
who visited this land years ago.

Our wide-awake friend, E. J. Hill, put in
sometali delegate work last week. He was
a delegate to the Odd Fellows' National Con-
ventiou at Baltimore. Left there at mid-
night, Monday, aud was in his place at New
Haven as delegate from Norwalk to the State
Convention. Tuesday p. m. He remained at
New Haven till the Convention, and then the
State Central Committee meeting, (to which
he had just been elected) had adjourned, and
left in the midnight train and was at his post
in Baltimore again Thursday morning. The
attempt of the old Shanghai hen to cover
three dozen eggs was a failure, but Hill cov-
ered both his commissions and did his duty
faithfully and well at both ends of the route.

The Danbury New, Hartford Post and
Hartford Oouronl, are finding a great fault
wlth the management of the Boston & New
England Road, and claim that the road is
entering much injury therefrom; thsttbey
are undertaking to do much more business
than they can possibly accommodate, etc..
This is one of the roads that claimed before
our last legislature that they and the Con-
solidated Rood were abundantly able to do
all the transportation business that would be
required for years, and therefore that .the
Legislature ought not to grant a charter to
the Parallel. Now the Paul says they have
8 blockade of 000 loaded freight cars at East
Hartford and another of 200 at Wiliimsutio
and lots at other points.

They have been killing more adders down
andnow may the club accomplish. in large-
The - Caucus. V V
it the nomination "of candidates. and‘th‘e
methods employed 'to secure nominations,
causes a dread of the ordeal 'and the result
to all desiring the best good of the; town.
For years a system of nominating candidates
for town ofilces has been in vogue that
could but produce unsatisfactory results.
The First district nominated a part of the
candidates and the Second district" the bal-
ance, each independent of the other. and
each expecting the other to ratify their so
tion at the polls without any means provided
for knowing the standing of the candidate
in the other district. In a town like this
with practically two, centres and several
quite populous localities outside, no caucus
held at the Bridge or at South Norwalk can
properly reflect the sentiment of the people
of the whole town. The outlying parts
cannot well attend a caucus at either place,
and if they did, with two independent cau-
cuses, no satisfactory result has been or can
be attained, hence the scratching at the
polls.
To remedy so absurd a system, at the last
Republican Caucus in th First District, Mr.
Hurlbutt proposed. (and it was passed) that
a committee of five be appointed by the
First Voting District, and five from the
Second, to confer and devise some plan by
which the whole town should have a voice in
nominating all candidates that the whole town
are called upon to vote for. In pursuance
of that idea a committee was appointed by
the Districts, and on~Thursday evening met
at Mr. Hurlbutt’s office. After a careful
examination of the matter they have decided
to report and recommend a TOWN CONVEN-
TION, composed of Delegates from each‘
School District, to make the nominations.
In order to get a fulljand fair expression of
the Republicans of the~ town it is proposed
to {give each district one delegate and as
many more as their republican strength will
warrant, giving a delegate for every so many
republicans in the district. This'gives every
men, through his delegate, armies in the
nomination of all candidates to be elected
townwise. This system is in practice in
large towns in this andMother States, and
works most satisfactorily. It will come up
for adoption at the next Republican caucus
in each district sud-should be approved.
The number of delegates each school district
would be entitled to upon a basis of one .
delegate to each 50 voters would, by canvass,
be: .
' Center District.................._
North Center District... ...2
North East District.....................1
North West District....-...............1
Broad River District.. ....... ..... ..1
'West Norwalk ........ ............ 1
Middle Five Mile River ........ .......1
South Five Mile River............... .2
South Norwalk.........................10
Down Town... ......... ......3
OverRiver......_........ .
A total of 33, sufiiciently large to be free
from packing. Go to your respective cau-
cuses this week, and ratifyyour committee ’s
recommendation.
We are sure our friend, the Editor of the
South Norwalk Republican, has been entire-
f ly misinformed as to the parties, purposes. or
proposed workings of the new delegate plan
of selecting our town officers, else he could
not have been led into such errors as be pro-
mulgates in his last issue. In the first pines
there is no one at the Bridge getting “ round
shouldered" in any effort to promote the
scheme, and at the meeting at which the
plan was matured there were present and
voting five from the Second, or South Nor-
walk Voting District, to four from all other
sections of the town, and the vote of adoption
was unanimous. We confess that we cannot
see how a fairer . or more truly republican
form of selecting our town ofiicers can be de-
vised. In our judgment it will require only
a moment’s consideration on the part of the
usually clear headed editor of the Republi-
can to bring him to a similar conclusion. As
new a caucus is called at South Norwalk and
another one at the Bridge-to place candidates
in nomination, the lone caucus accepting the
action of the othe'r.und what voice does West
Norwalk, Winnipank, Silver Mine, Poplar
Plain, Down Town or Five Mile River have
in these caucuses, as a rule? The new plan
proposes that in every school district a ' local
caucus shall be held and they‘select delegates
to the full number ’ofthelr republican vote
cast in such distgiot. .Thns a school district
in Five Mile River casting an almost unani'
_mons republican vote,v.wou1d be entitled to
and should have more delegates per capita
than .Winnipauk, which gives a ‘vote so
equally divided with the democrats. The
strong feature recommending the new plan
is precisely that it does not give any
one locality an advantage over any other
locality and further by this mode, all
the outlying districts, now practically dis-
frauchised, by reason of distance from the
Bridge or city, can meet at some convenient
centre in their immediate localities and se-
lect and instruct their delegates to act for
them in one general caucus. This is all there
is of the plan, but if any section. or number
of Republicans prefer to goon in the Old way
we doubt if any one desires to interfere with
their wishes or to force a change in the pres-
ent plan.

The democrats in Massachusetts have
swallowed their "Beast," Butler, ' ‘spoons"
and all and he heads their ticket for Gover—
nor. The Republicans of the same state
nominated Gen. Bishop, who will be elected.
In New York. the. democratic factions
have shaken hands over their bloody feuds
in New York city and after admitting Tam-
many and Bess Kelley, nominated a strong
candidate, who we fear will defeat Secretary
Folger, a far abler and better man.

Railroad-.2 Accidents.
On Thursday afternoon trains were delay-
ed for nearly two hours on the Consolidated
Road and its connections, by the 'derailing'
of two cars at the Grand Central Depot.’
On Friday morning a frightful and fatal
collision tookploce in the Tunnel, similar
in many respects to the Spuyten Devil disas-
ter. An express train broke down at about
0 o’clock, a. m., and for several hours ingo-
ing gtrains had to be switched often to an-
other track and .worked in slowly. The
Portchester special of the Consolidated
had been this switched and sent forward,
but was soon stopped by the track being
blocked in front; almost immediately the
rapid transit train cf the Harlem Road came'
upon and dashed into the hind—car, killing
two people and severely injuring a score of
others. Fortunately the car had but a few
people in, otherwise the casualities would
have been appalling. This was about nine
o’clock a. m.; it is not known who was to
blame, but supposed to be the signal man at
entrance Of tunnel. Of course there was
great consternation among the passengers on
the train, but help was promptly sent up
from the city and the passengers were soon
extricated' from the debris of the ruined car
and sent forward.
Railroad Examinations.
We observe by our exchanges that the
Railroad Commissioners are soon to begin
their fall examinations Of the railroads in this
state. Judging from the accounts published
of almost daily, and sometime semi-daily
smash-ups on the ‘fNew England Railroad,”
that the ride over that road will be, to say
it mildly, attended with considerable risk,
we would respectfully suggest that the
commissioners interview a life insurance
agent before taking their examination ride
on said read. Perhaps the commissioners
may deem such an interview more dangerous
than the ride, but for their comfort we will
say, that we have heard of such interviews,
where the subjects have escaped With their
lives.
There isa strongtemperance element in
the State; but it is among the Republicans,
and is content to leave its cause with that
party. What is wise and best the Republi-
cans can be trusted to do when the right
time comes, aswell in New York as in Ohio.
N. Y. Tribune. ,
Truer words Were never written. But some
wily “ Democratic brother”or other who
knows what he is about, is always able to
' “rope in” ten unthinking Republicans to one
Democrat into his carefully coddled “Tem-
perance party." The wisest and best tem-
perance legislation the Union ever, has been
enacted by the Republican party.
