The recent decidon of the Supreme
Court of the legality of the reissue of
greenback sustains the position held
upon thh question by the Greenbacketu.
Greenbacks are as much a legal tender
as gold, by flat of government. which is

William W. \Vhiting. editor of the
Bidgeheld rm. died after only a few
days illntvis of pneumonia. last Friday.
Mr. Whitingewnl one of the best writers
as well as best informed men of the
state. and the editorial department of
his paper evidenced a man in charge
who had the good of mankind at heart.
and the ability to give his views clearly
and forcibly.
The prohibition state convention as-
sembled at Columbus. Ohio. Thursday.
with a moderate attendance. to appoint
thirty-four delegates to the national com
vention at Pittsburg on May 21st. J.W.
Sharp was made chairman and L B.
Logan secretary. Specchea were made
denouncing the Scott law and all supple-
mentary measures except prohibition.
The usual committees were appointed.
Among the resolutions adopted was the
following: Resolved. That this conven-
tion recognise God to be the author of
government for man. and that in it He
has incorporated protection for the citi-
sen in his person and possessions.
Mr. Francis C. Barlow tells a New
York Times reporter that he and his fel-
low reformers expect to make them~
selves “felt“ at the republican national
conventional. though they haven‘t as
yet fully settled on their plan of opera~
tions. As yet they are not working for
or against any individual. Personally
Mr. Barlow doesn‘t see how a party can
get along without a “machine“-—thst is.
without thorough organization. “I sup~
pose.” he said to the reporti‘r. “we will
agree upon some candidate. though this
movement is not in the direction of a
new party. It is simply the expression
ofa number of republic-ans that they
will not cling to their party if its prin-
ciples are not satisfactory. I think that
by the time the primaries are held it will
beacon that our wishes must be con-
sidered."
A FIRE ALARM.
The necessity for a fire alarm is beyond
dispute. and it is settled that it is high
time that one of some kind was pro-
vided. Just what it shall be. and where
located. cannot be dccidcd upon without
trouble. but an alarm :it oncc is what is
needed. Tuesday the fire had been rug»
ing at least twenty minutes before the
Congregational church bell was rung.
and when\\‘. A. Ilrowu‘s factory w is
destroyed. considerable llllll‘ clupscd lit“
tween the discovo ry of the tire and the
alarm.
Our firemen have vccuputions in dif-
forent loi‘nlitirs. some of them where
the Congregational bell cannot be heard.
and When their seiviccs Would be most
effective. it is often the case. they hate
no knowledge that iln-y :in- r-qtiircd.

T113 QI'I'IS'I‘ION “I" THE AGE.
It has bet-n said that the cod and the
test of good government is the greatest
happiness of the greatest number. If
thisbetrue it must be owned that no'
government extant is satisfactorily con-
ducted. For observation shows that. as
n rule political energy is expended upon
secondary concerns. while politicians
employ all their dexterity in avoiding
action upon the great problems which
most deeply involve the destinies of the
masses. There is to-dny in the English-
spcaking countries no such tremendous.
fabrraching. vital question as that of
drunkenness. In its implications and
efl‘ecta it oversluidows all else. It is im-
possible to examine any subject con-
nected with the progress. the civilita~
tion. the physical well-being. the religi~
ous condition of the masses. without en-
countering this monstrous evil. It lies
at the centre of all social and political
mischief. It pariilyrcs beneficcnt ener~
gies in every direction. It neutralizes
educational agencies. It silences the
voice of religion. It bellies penal reform.
‘ It obstructs political reform. It rears
aloft a mass of (willy-inspired power
which at every salient point threatens
social and national advance: which give;
to ignorance and vice a greater potency
than intelligence and virtue can con»
mend; which tiepriires the poor of the
advantages of modern progress; which
« Iobauches and degraded millions. brutal-
ixing and saddening them below the
plane of healthy savagery. and filling
the centres of population Willi creatures
whose condition almost excuses the im-
morality which renders them dangerous
to their generation.
All these evils. all this mischief. all
this destruction of human soul-- and in-
tellects. go on among us daily and
hourly. There are none so ignorant or
inattentive}: not to have permnal ca-
perience of some of them: some hearth
darkued: some family scattered: some
loving heart broken; some promising
career ruined: some deed of shame done.
Yet how hard it is to get this gigantic
evil attacked seriously. Temperance or-
ganisations have indeed been fighting it
for years. yet popular inertia has resisted
their utmost efforts. Bot has all been
7 done that might and should have been
done by tbe'organiaed agencies that rep-
‘ beenttltehigher life? What are doc-
rinal points. for example. compared to
this everpreeent. ever-active. insiduous
influence? What are sectarian differen-
ces by the side of this national curse?
Gan theohurobes fold their hands and
flatter themselves that their duties are
all fulfilled. while the masses prefer the
saloon to the pulpii, and while rum
rules in politics and society? Are the
higher educational agencies doing all in
their power to advance civilisation
while they ignore this obstacle to pro-
gress! Gsn any political organization he
said to represent the best Itpinllotil and
the strongest needs of the people. while
this abiding source of misery and crime
and poverty is allowed to spread and
flourish!
There is needed something of that
sacredflre which kindled into inextin~
guishahle heat the seal of the Abolition-
lsts. and which compelled the abandon-
ment of human slavery. to rouse the
national indignation and abhorrence
attains! this very much greater evil.

“Judge“ Birdsall. of New York and
Westport. first made his appearance in
Connecticut as financial backer of the
Norwslk Wt. an unscrupulous
sheet which is now defunct. From that
time to the present. he has been a dis-
turbing element in the party. and has
furnished “aid and comfort“ to the

his claim is well-founded. and it is really

meet only the natural consequences of
their own blind folly.—B‘port Farmer.
Birdsall has published Governor \‘l'al-
ler‘s private letters to him. He says he
does this to show that he was on inti~
mate terms with his excellency. The
letters show that he was utilised by
Thomas M. Waller during the canvass
and thanked by the governor‘elect after
the canvass was over. but they do not
show that the intimate relations between
them continued after the votes were
counted. In other words. in the whole
batch of letters there is not one which
was written by the governor after he
took the oath of office. Politics make
strange bedfcllows oftentimes. and Gov'
ernor Waller is not the first candidate
on record who as a candidate has en~
durcd intimacies that. were terminated
after the oath of cities was taken. Bird-
mil doubtleiu had his uscs during the
canvass. but. judging from the nature
of the man. they could not have been

Ilirdsall supplements his letters with a
mess of statements that would be inter

he is not a monumental truthteller. and
therefore his tattle will not find a very
ready market.—New'1.ondon Day.
"Judge“ Bir‘lsall. of \Veotport. has ful~
filled his threat and takes his revenge on
Governor \Valler by iublishing the pri~
vate letters written y Mr. \\'ailer dur-
ing the campaign. It appears that in
nearly if not quite every instance the
letters were replies to Mr. llirdsall‘s vu~
luminious corrwpondence. and. while
they contain considerable ”taffy.“ it is
evident that their chief design was to

llarlen Oyster Question.
In relation to the article published in
the Hour two weeks ago concerning
this oyster question in Darlen. I will say
the writer either states some wilful
falsehoods or is utterly ignorant of the
facts in the case. Ills stati-iiients that
the Five Mile River Oyster nssociiition
have failed before the commissioners.
etc. is false in every particular. In the
first place. there is no .such organization
in existence. neither did the oystermcn
fall before the commissioners. The only
case that ever came before them con~
cerning the natural oyster and clam

defended by the Hon. Edward L. Sco-
fleld. The commissioners took the teeti.
m-iny. which was precieel tire sumo in
substance as given ti t e renowned
Superior court committee. and rvjocted
the up bastion of Mr. Raymond. on the
grcumlof its being a natural oyster‘and
clam bed. therefore did not Come within
the limits allotted by law for designation.
The ground applied for by Mr. Raymond
is precsely the same in character. in
fact a part of the same bed. as that Oli-
ver Cook is trying to take from the pub
lie. the difference being only Cook pre~
tends to have had the part-ho lays claim
to designated before the commission
went into power. consequently without
their power to act on it. the ground
within the town limits being also out of
their jurisdiction. Could the state com-
missioners have acted on all this ground.
the question would have been settled
Ion ago beyond a doubt that it is a nat-
ural‘oyster and clam bed.
Tbepublic has never yet gone into
court to get control of these grounds
but to prevent selfish and unscrupulous
men from getting control of them. the
public has never ceased to control or
work these grounds. A few have been
arrested for working on them. but; have
