Highway Superintendent Kellogg started in.with a gang of nine men this morning, to open up the Mill Hill im- provement operations. , The work started in front of the James Mallory homestead, where the cobble-stones used in the gutter were taken up and removed for future use. To-morrow, the city expects to have 'a force of twenty more men, with dirt- carls. ploughs, scrapers and the like, at work on the Lockwoods’ homesteads cuts, etc. All the men and animals will be put to work, that can economically be employed, so as to hurry along the important work to its earliest possible completion. A majority of those having property rights affected, seem to accept the situ- ation with the same wisdom and gene- rous public spirit shown by Mr. M. DeF. Lockwood, who was the first one to accept and receipt for his award. The few who feel that they have not received adequate remuneration for their prOpeity taken, and prepare to contest the question in the couit=, are understood not to oppose. nor needless Opposition to the rap d progress of no work now entered upon. The money, in each case, has been tendered, and whenever declined, the amount deposited to the credit of such party, and all other legal requirements complied with. Now that this all too long delayed improvement has commenced, let every one show their good citizenship by helping along the good work to an early completion. o»— eelnmelleeWENE. hat the gold standard Democracy has many adherents in New Haven was apparent last night, when, despite the unfavorable weather, upwards of 1,500 people gathered at the Hyperion thea- tre to participate in. the deliberations of the gold standard convention and give endorsement to the spirit of the con- vention by Democrats who feel they cannot support the Chicago platform. Judge Lynde Harrison presided. Hon. Lewis Sperry, of Hartford, was the first speaker. Mr. Sperry began his remarks by taking up a question which some one in the audience pro- pounded. “What is sound money?”. He was frequently interrupted by re- marks f~ on persons in the audience who wer~ evidently in favor of the sil— .ver docr‘ no. He proceeded to a tech- nical discussion of the currency ques- tion, and detailed the history of the United States coinage elaborately, and concluded his remarks by asserting that the need of the hour was the defeat of free silver and the defeat of anyman who offers himself on that platform. Col. John R. Fellows of New York, followed Mr. Sperry, and began by say- ing: “If I were to give a single reason for my position, I should sav I stand .wbere I do because I am a Democrat, and because I desireto remain such! The platform promulgated at Chicago is treason to Democracy. Ccl. Fellows then said he denied the right to any man to assemble and strip from him his principles, claiming he was no bolter, but they who asserted that they were boilers were themselves the heretics. “I deny the masses and classes cry,” he continued. “There are no classes or masses in this repub- lic.” At the close of Col. Fellows’ remarks delegates to the Indianapolis conven- tion were elected as follows: Ex-Gov. Thomas M. Waller, New London; Lewis Sperry, Hartford; George M. Gunn, Milford, Zalmon Goodsell, Bridgeport; Robert J. Vance, New Britain;Joel A. Sperry New Haven; H. Holton Wood, Derby; Charles A. Elliot, Clinton;David A. Wells, Nor- wich; Alex Wildman, Danbury; George Woodiufi', Litchfield. His Kindness. A slip ofpaper pasted on the glass door at Judge Hubbell’s law office on Water street reads:—- “The Republican party stands for honest money and a chance to earn it.” —McKinley. The Judge, or one of his Democratic friends, has added with pen and ink. “kindness of F. A. Hill,” son of his father.
