Inbbell for Mayor of Norwalkr
{The Democratic town caucus for the
First and Third districts, held in the Town
House, last night, brought together up-
ward of three hundred voters. East
‘Norwslk was well represented. The or-
ganization of the meeting was perfected
byselecting Edgar N. Sloan for chair-
man and B. C. Feeney for secretary.
' Bernard Tully, chairman of the town
committee, read a notice from the Demo-
~ :cratio Congressional committee of this
*- district, saying that it had been decided
L; to allow the towns in the district to send
the same number of delegates to the Con
., {irrational convention that they had sent
1' tenths State convention. Thus, Norwalk
3; and East Norwalk were entitled to two
~ more delegates, and South Norwalk' to
i one extra delegate. The matter of elect-
ing the delegates went over until after
the nominations had been made.
, I'll-Burgess McMullen then secured the
floor. and delivered one of his famous
extemporaneous and pithy speeches. He
said: "Everybody ought to be cautious
' about making nominations. Just think
' of the terrible condition of the road from
, Nash’s corner to Winnipauk. It is a
shame to nominate men that would allow
such goings on, besides their many other
misdemeanors too numerous to men-
tion.” When Mr. McMullsn was inform-
ed that be was out of order, he waxed
wrath and told the caucus they did not
want to hear the truth. He then sat
down amid the applause of the Franklin
avenue contingent who were out in force.
The chairasked those present who didn’t
intend to support the Democratic ticket
to refrain from voting. He ruled that
the method adopted at the preceding
caucuses of passing around and deposit-
ing ballots in a hat on a table in front of
the moderator should prevail, and nparty
check list he used to check oh the voters
as they deposit their ballot. Tellers
were then appointed and the caucus
proceeded to an informal ballot for a
candidate for selectrnan: Here is the
ballot: Votes cast, 20?; Samuel Daskam,
155; William Mitchell, 37; James Mit-
chell, 6; scattering 9. A motion to
make the ballot formal prevailed, amid
vociferous applause and cheers.
The following candidates were chosen
by acclamation: Town clerk, Oliver E.
Wilson; town treasurer, William E.
Montgomery; constables, Thomas Hunt,
Herman Theile; board of relief, John W.
Mninsmchool visitor, Augustus 0. Gel-
ding.
There was some objection when the
caucus proceeded to nominate an nssw
nor by acclamaticn, and an informal bub
dot was taken. The ballot stood: Votes
cast, 194; James Mitchell, 105: William
H. Olmstead, 71; A. C. Golding, 8; J. W.
Mains, 8; scattering, ‘3. The vote was
made formal.
William Mitchell was nominated one
of the grand jurors by a rim rose vote,
but there was a kick against Patrick
Biotin", and two votes were taken before
the chair decided in the allirmutlvo.
The first appearance of a raffle upon
the smooth waters of the caucus was
when John J. Walsh was named for
registrar of voters for the First district.
An attempt was made to elect him by
aoolamatlon, when a storm of "nob“
broke loose, and disorder reigned. Mr.
Walsh‘s friends insisted that he had been
elected, but the chair ruled otherwise,
. and as there was a doubt he ordered an
informal ballot. There were 10:1 votes
cast; John J. Walsh, 138; Nicholas J.
Martin, 57. A motion to make the vote
formal prevailed, and John W. Mains
was quickly nominated for registrar of
the Third district by reclamation.
Bernard Tully, Frederick Mead, Wil-
liam Worden, James B. Costello and
John Malone were elected as members of
the Democratic town committee.
Congressional convention Delegates.
The matter of electing delegates to the
Congressional convention then came up,
and the storm that had been brewing
burst into a hurricane, and disorder pre-
vailed unquslled until the chair took des-
perste measures to restore order. Ber-
, nerdTully was unanimously chosen one
- of the delegates, and the name of George
Bannocksr was proposed as the other.
’ "This added to the fury of the storm, and

shouted someone in the audience, and
sing. Henry Malone was then nominated
by Mr. Martin. Mr. Ilanlon asserted
that the chair had declared Mr. Bonuse-
ker elected at first, and had no right to
change his decision. Mr. Sloan assured
him that he had the right, as the vote
was doubted and a ballot was asked for.
The chair said he saw no other way than
to take a ballot. Nicholas Martin, pale
with suppressed excitement, then jumped
up again demanding a ballot. Matters be-
gan to assume a serioudl aspect, as the
assembly was now divided into two fac-
tions. The Bonnecker constituents be-
gan to “gibe” the anti-Honneokers, and
replies were always ready. Mr. Sloan
took in the situation and ordered an in-
formal ballot at once. There were 154
votes cast; Henry Malone, 109; George A.
Honnecker, 42; scattering, 3. The ballot
was made formal and Mr. Malone was
declared elected amid wild cheers.
, District Primaries.
The district primaries question was
than fully explained by Bernard Tully,
as heretofore printed in Tull: SENTINEL.
It was decided to divide the city of Nor-
walk into four districts, and the First
and Third voting districts in ten die-
tricts. The plan unfolded by Mr. Tully was
adopted, and the town ccmmitts were
instructed to see that next year’s’tloket
was nominated under the new rule. The
following were selected as committees to
perfect the arrangements in the various
districts: First, C. N. Wood, John Mu-
lone, L. C. Belts; Second. Frank Street,
Bernard Tully, L. L. Sherwood: Third,

EeT 01’ N0 LICENSE.
Rev. D. W. Beach, of Cambridge. Ad-
dresses the Audience on the Liquor
Question and the Elect of No License
0n n Ilse-subunits our.
There was a tremendous crowd and
oceans of enthusiasm at the mass meet-
ing, held in Hoyt’s Theatre, last night,
under the auspices of the Citizen's
League.
The speaker, the Rev. D. W. Beach,
said that Cambridge was a town of
eighty-three thousand inhabitlnts, twen-
ty-one miles from Boston; that for eight
years next December, she had voted no
license with an average majority of six
hundred, and that it is a great manufac-
turing city, containing fifteen thousand
operatives, employed in carriage works,
printing houses, cracker works, soap fac-
tories, boiler and safe works, etc. The
saloons were driven out of Cambridge
because the people couldn’t hear them.
They were getting indecent and were
corrupting politics. They dominated in
the government and disgusted the people.
SO respectable citizens went in to save
the noble town. Men of all creeds and
all beliefs united. The clergy were of
one mind and worked like beavers. No
one of them expected to win; but in spite
of the fact that a blizzard raged on elec-
tiOn day and that men had to climb over
banks of snow to get to the polls they did
win and the history of Cambridge as a
no license town began. As to results,
Cambridge was a better town to live in.
People took up their residence there be-
cause, they said, they could bring up
their children away from the saloon.
The speaker’s own little boy went a half
mile to school every day without passing
a saloon. Not one child in the place
passed a saloon on the way to school.
There were no saloons to pass. And then,
he said, people are putting up more
houses. In the last year of license, one
hundred and eighty seven new ho see
were built. In 1803. four hundred and
ninety-three went up. A large propor-
tion of those who built these houses were
working people. The valuation of prop-
erty has also gone up, so that now, with
no increase of tax rate, the city receives
an income from taxation larger than be—
fore under license.
Mr. Beach spoke of one saloon that
took in $365 in two days. That money
came from the wives and children who
needed it. The saloon takesa man’s skill,
reputation and brain. It takes money
from the business man and the counting
room. It robs the till of grocer, shoeman
and every other storekceper in the c .m-
munity. The president of the Grecsrs’
Union in Cambridge said recently: "For
every bad debt of :31 now, 1 had a bad
debt of $10 in the last year of license "
As to savings banks, the speaker said
that deposits were greatly larger now
than in license years. Now there mm
199‘.) deposits; their, c‘lll. Now people
save money who before spa-ht it for
drink. Now homes are blessed that be-
fore wcrecursed by drink. Children go
to school well dressed, where before they
were poorly clad. Schools here had to
be built. The citizens scarcely know
what to do with the children so many of
them come to school, Not only do they
come, but they stay in school foralonger
prriod than ever before. Mr. lleach said
tramps no longer came to Cambridge.
1n the last year of license 1,08“ tramps
were housed: in,,1893, only 1‘36 came to
the city. No lidenso is bad for the tramp
industry.
After giving many other feels he
closed with a vivid picture of their first
no license victory. He told how the
bells rang out the victory at midnight;
how the people received the news, and
how many arose from their beds, fell on
their knees and thanked God for the
blessing. lie urged Norwnlkers to vote
no llcsuse,to fall in line with New bril-
sin and to set the example for ollror
Connecticut cities. If they did this, the
nation would soon follow and the saloon
would be swept from the land.
Dr. Board was chairman of the meet-
ing. ()n the platform were other clergy
oflhe town. The Gounod Male Quar-
telte sang several selections that were
much appreciated. The stage was hand.
somely decorated.
