The first Republican rally of the cam.
paign was opened last night in Hoyt’s
Theatre, with the usual accompaniments
of enthusiasm and good feelmg. Around

stairs. Stood rows of interested listeners.
all the seats being occupied before b
. o‘clockhlion. Rphertfi. Rowan, was
chosen chairman of the meeting, and
after afew apt Words of introduction,
presented the .speaker of the evening,
Hon. Joseph L. Barbour, of Hartford.
, 0n the platform, with the speaker, were
seated some of the prominent citizens of
both Norwalk and South Norwalk. The
Adelphi quintette rendered appropriate
vocal selections during the evening, and“
their efforts were appreciated by those
present.
Mr. Barbour is a forceful and very
logical speaker. ' His address was per-
meated with a rich and healthful hum-
or that broke out from time to time to
the extreme delight of the assembled
Republicans. His resume of the tariff
question was conc1se and, conclusive,
and his exposition of the intricate and
elusive sophisms of free silver, complete
and discomfiting to the friends of that
cause.
"Money,” said Mr. Barbour, "is de-
fined in the dictionaries as a medium of
exchange and a measure of value.‘ It.
is worth just what it will purchase, and
no more. If the value of money appre-
ciates, and the price of products corms.
pondingly rises, the purchaser is no bet-
ter off than he was before. So, if under
the free and unlimited coinage of silver
bullion at the present legal ratio of 10 to
1, a silver dollar will purchase but fifty-
three cents' worth of commodities, are
you any wealthier by possessing two of
those dollars, if at the same time the
price of all products becomes doubled?
“Why is it that the silver dollar
of today,containing but fifty~three cents'
worth of bullion, passes current in the
markets of this country? Because the
other forty-seven cents' worth is made
up of the promises of Uncle Sam, backed
by all his resources and propeny.
But, under free coinage, there is no
forty-seven cents’ worth of promise in
the dollar, and it will then purchase just
what it is W01 th,fifty-three cents’ worth
of value.
”Suppose a case. A dealer in hats
has in his store hats that cost him $1.00
in predent money, Suppose a free coin-,
age statute is passed, the effect of which
is that the silver dollar passes at its
commercial value, fifty-three cents, does
anyone suppose that the dealer is going
t) sell his hat for a fifty-111 rec cent dol-
lar? No. He would then ask 9,12, and
the laboring man who has set aside his
dollars for 11 but would find that he must
set aside another dollar from his carn-
ings. And so it would be with every-
thing. Flour that now sells for $1111
barrel could not be bought for loss than
$8. Wheat. grains, farm products,
everything would correspondingly
rise, except wages, which would be
the last- to adjust themselves to new
conditions. The laborer would say to
his employer: 'Hero, the price of a hot
is now $2; I can’t afford to Work for my
present wages; they must be doubled,
because the price of everything else has
become doubled.’ His employer woull
say: 'I won't give it to y1n.‘ 'l‘hc
laborer would answer: ‘Thsn I Won't
work.’ And he would lay up on the
shelf that day’s labor, which would be
irretrievubly lost. And the masses thus
[reduced to half pay, or no work, means
appalling disaster and distress through-
out the country.
"This country cannot mint the silver
of the world, as our Popocratic 1 friends
propose, with safety. Our business
interests and relations with other nations
bind usto their standards of value. In
all the enlightened countries of the
world gold is the standard and our in-
tercourse with them is measured in
terms of gold. To change the stan-
dard of one of these units, while
the standards of the other units remains
unchanged, means confusion and un-
fairness. But we are a great country, it
is said, and we can go it alone. My
friends, thiI is an absurd delusion. We
cunnotgo it' alone. Suppose we go it
alone in everything. It would only 1':-
unit in confusion. Suppose we enacts
law making. 150 11111111 in a day. An

'It is seventy-nine minutes past 122}
The European says: 'Whut are you talk-

we passed a law dividing the, day into

business with us'.’ "
In conclusion Mr. Barbour said the
necessity of maintaining the present
monetary standard appealed to all
Americans alike. It was not a question
of party. but of patriotism; not of Re-
publicanism. but of Americauism.
WESTPORT SALOONS TO OPEN.
County Commissioners Will Soon Receive Ap-

Several saloon—keepers are getting
ready to open places in Westport, the
town having declared for license, last
Monday, alteraycar‘s experience as a
“dry town."
Applications will soon be made to the
County Commissioners for licenses.
There issomc hesitation about investing
money in this business in towns in
which the no-licenso sentiment is so
strong, because each election there is
danger of having to discontinue. Those
that favor license argue that just as
much liquor is sold stealthily under no-
liccnse and during the pastyearlaw

Wood’s Esllmted Damages.
After being discussed many times and
for funny years, it is at last a reality
that Wall street is 1to be repaved and
widened at and near the bridge, at an
estimated cost of between $10,000 and
$17,000. This decision was-reached at
1111 adjourned cit’y meeting held yester-
day afternoon. in tho Narcotic opera
House, at. which Mayor Wheeler pre-'
sided and City Clerk Lockwood acted
as secretary.
City Engineer Wood had placed upon
the stage a large map of the locality in
question, and referred to it as be ex-
plained the. improvements and gave an
estimate of the1 cost. He said Bucking-
llflm Lockwood wanted $1,000 for dam-
ages to the property now occupied
by the Jones 8; Hctchkiss crock-
ery store. These figures included cut—
ting oil' the front, moving the build-
ing back, and building new 11111113
at the rear. in regard to the Ratch-
ford property, Mr. Wood said 111.11,
owner had offered the property for
$7,000, but would let the city have it for
$13,000. He paid $11,500 for it and had
expended about $000 on the building.

Mrs. Julia Wilson wanted as d1111111g11s.

a level 11nd raised sufficiently high to
afford a convenient entrance to the
building. He figured the met of chang-
ing the walk and building the sidew "llk

street could be paved with granite blocks

in answer to 11 question regarding the

Since when has the study of local politics
been added to the curriculum of our pol;-

in an unbiased and non-partisan spirit?
Just about election time the teacher of

some gratuitous advice. She requested
them to ask their parents how the city
would get along, should fine-license"

the saloon-keepers themselves for funds
and get them. The saloon-beeper does
not love the drunkurd. When you have
enforccdu law of that nature, and it
would be as easy to enforce it as to ml-
forcc a 111111 that sends 11 1111111 to jail, you
have 1111 nearly cutoff the demand that
the suloonkeepers would seek some
other business.
As I have 111111 lmf'orc. I believe you
would evon get help from the saloon-
kcepers themselves, for they do not 1111-
joy having drunken men in their places,
neither do I think they would prefer, as
11 rule, to take all of a man’s wages
when Saturday night comes.
[once heard of 11 man who would go
into a certain saloon every Saturday
night in this very town, and before he
Would leave it his Week's wages were
nearly gone,wl1ilo his wife and child-
ren were suffering at home for the ne—
cessities of life. After a while it be
come unbearable, and one Saturday
night the wife of this man came to the
siloon keeper and asked him for a loan
offt"tol1uy something to eat telling}
hlm that she know her husband camc‘
there and would 111mm the greater part
of his wages. She also urged the saloon-
keepcr to sell him no more drink. Ber

Al issh mory
story was pitiful. The saloon-keeper
replied that if he did not sell it‘to him
some one else would. He asked the
woman how much her husband earned.
She told him $011 week. He suggested
that she let her'hnsband continue to
leave his money there, as he certainly
would somewhere, and that she call
around every Saturday night and re-
ceive her All back from the slalom-keep-
er. She received :89 then. and called
regularly thereafter forI do not know
how long.
Is.1y,cut of tho drunkard and you
will cutoll the evil. Let some of our
long-heads think this matter over scri-
ously. This is merely a suggestion, but
1. thing it is in the right direction, and
I make it in the interest of suffering hu-
manity and to promote prosperity.
