“The Character of the Men we should
have for our Rulers." The allusions to
candidates now before the siple were
principally to Mr. Cleveland. and were.
decidedly derogatory. Indirect allusions
were made to some men and acts of the
Republican party. but hardly anything
that could be construed into a disapprov—
al of lilaine‘s character. while St. John
was mentioned as the kind of man for a
ruler. but not as the man for the present
emergency. so that no special comfort
was got out of the sermon by any party.

Mr. Lyons iuul lils Trained Steers.
All who saw the wonderful trained
steers at the Danhury fair will be inter-
ested in the following from the Bridge-
port Standard :—In all the state agricul-
tural fairs this year one of the chief nt~
fractions has been apair of trained steers
which would not even Ilarnurn‘s trained
and sacred animals to blush. They see-
saw. draw water. churn and perform
many other tricks which indicate a won~
derful amount of intelligence and patient
instruction. The owner and trainer of
them isa farmer named Lyons. who lives
in Burlington. For nianv years he has
taken great pride in his Ive stock. and
has put much money and pains on them.
This pair of stews is his latest triumph.
But 7ust as he was about to reap the re-
wari of his careful toil be met with a pe-
culiar accident which has ruined it all
for him. and his steers are now exhibit-
ed by another man. Some time ago Mr.
Lyons was severely bitten by a mad dog.
At the time no very serious injuries
secured to have been sustained. and
through prompt medical treatment Mr.
Lyons soon seemed to be enjoying his
accustomed good health. But now the
effect of the bite is showing itself in a
peculiar way. It has practically made
Mr. Lyons insane. He will not eat a
particle of food outside of his own house,
because he labors under the hallucination
that if he does he will certainly be poi—
oncd.
llaiitiiir‘y Fair.
The sixteenth annual Fair of the Dan—
hury Agricultural society is ended.
\Vhatev'er were the fears or the expectas
tions or the speculations as to what it
would do the Fair is over with and the
result has come. That it has more than
exceeded the brighcst colored hopes is
evident from these figures.
The show has been far larger and far
better than ever before. and as this can
be said of it every year it shows that the
exhibition is growing in a healthy inan-
ner.
The increase of this year over that of
last year is more gratifying. \Ve herewith

These are the paid tickets. In addi-

men and restauranters. 200 stockholders
and their families. stock men and other
exhibitors. aid the usual free list. The
sale of tickets this year is 5.40;! more

places the Daiibury Fair far ahead of all
other fairs in New England in point of
attendance. and no one denies that it is
far ahead in the matter of exhibits.
The New York Sun says that the num-
ber of its visitors is only ei ualcd by the
attendance on the fair of a ig state. and
that in the matter of exhibits it is excel.

The Republlcnu Victory at llarlen
Indicates that voters are in danger of
violating their individual honest inten-
tions by the practice of voting for party.
The only question prominent now in
politics is sterling honesty. The people
of Darien have taken the old record of
the Republican party without investiga-
tion of the present situation and gulped
down the whole party ticket. They
know and were reminded that the des‘
perato ring who have been strivin to
rob the poor workin men of their iv-
ing were about to ta 0 possession of the
Republican caucus for the purpose of
electing demonstrated corru t and un.
princi led town nfilcers._ hey knew
that is ring had an ob ect of interest
at stake of not less than $30000. They
knew that the interests of the temper.
once part of the community were also at
hazard and that the town was ‘oined
band in hand to injure the pubic by
using the Republican party of Dorian to
carry their villainous so cities. They
knew that these corrupt officers had en-
tertained com laints against the work
ing men of t is community that have
been tried time and time again and the
people had been acquitted and the record
of fifty rs has proved their victorious
cause. hey knew that these corrupt
ofiicials had continued fan entertain com-
plaints although there were now sixty-
five cases on the docket of the court
that were not tried and were not likely
tobe because of the ncquitnla in like
cases The know that the state is
robbed by eir officers who receive the
perquisitcu for entering these complaints
that have no foundation. The know
the largoex nae the above abored
underto fig t this ring in the courts.
They know the continued expense that
will accrue by the enforced continuance
of the fight by the election of these cor-
rupt oficiala. for a livin principle is at
stake as well as the bred or their fami-
lies. They know the «lo-perms and de-
termined character of the leader of this
ring, and with all this knowledge they
refused to attend the bliciin caucus.

The Democrats and Independents of
Five Mile River raised a handsome Cleve»

night. The South Norwalk and Darien
clubs participated in the ceremony. and
headed by Heine‘s band made a parade.
Quite a number of residences were illum-
inatcd. and Ackert’s hotel and grounds
were make to almost blaze with candles
and reflectors. The banner was succeiu-
fully “flung to the breeze“ and enthusi-
astically cheered. The principal speech
was made by lion. James II. Gallagher
of New Haven. and was characteristic
of that old Democratic campaigner.

The third campaign banner has been
raised in this town. This time it is a St.
John and Daniel banner. It was raised
on Thursday evening. The St. John club
of Smith Norwalk. to the number of about
30. did not arrive till 7:45. They formed
in line on Main street. and to the strains
of niarcial music marched to Railroad
Avenue. and in the glare of and blue
lights. with music and cheers he banner,
a very pretty one with the portraits of the
candidates, was placed in position. The
club then marched to the hall which was
soon crowded. Singing was indulged in
by a mule quartet. accompnlned by two
comets. Rev. Mr. Estes offered prri er.
after which Mr. F. 14. Uornstock. thec air
man. introduced Mr. Will 8. Bailey and
Editor Golden. (not the his or.) of South
Norwalk. who addressed t 0 people at
some length. The speakers handled the
two great political parties without gloves
and it cannot be denied but that some
of their remarks were pertinent and
truthful. The number'of converts made
to the St. John ranks will be determined
later on in the cammign. Those interes-
ted in this movement are treated to
meet at the residence of Mr. k L.

MEETING.
No Gates Yet. but ".500 Approprlntod
for New Bone.
The city meetiri Monday evening was
quite largely atte ed. andpnrtook much
of the lively character of those that. were
held in former times. The old orators.
excepting J. J. Millard. were there. and
several new and can r ones. who
cromed swords. an inn e the mental
sparks fly. The meeting was a decided
success. if the amount of discussion
could make it so. We had thought that
our “parliamentary gladiators“ were go-
ing to decay. but it. is not so. They have
on y taken a rest to gain strength. A'~
though the discussion was quite spicy. it
was in the best of humor.
The committee appointed to consider
the matter of gates at the Main-st rail-
road crossing reported as follows:
In accordance with your appointment.
your committee notified the railroad
companies that they desired a conference
with them on the subject of gates at the
Main and Washington street crossing.
President \Vatrous of the Consolida‘
led. and President Lockwood and Super~
intendent Crawford of the Danbury and
Horwalk railroad companies. responded
by meeting with the committee in the
office of President Lockwood. in this
citv. By invitation. his Honor Mayor
Golden and Robert H. Rowan. Esq.. ut~
tended the meeting.
Your committee assured the gentle-
men that the citinens had no desire to
encroach upon the rights of the rail-
roads. but they insisted u n the right
of the city to protect the tree and limbs
of its citizens. The gentlemen affirmed
the iirpose of the railroads to be in ac-
co with such fl desire. and that they
would do all in their power to assist the
city in its effort.
Your committee then pointed out the
objections to the first plan of gates. as
they understood them. i. e... the post in
the street 45 feet from the north end of
the platform. and the blockading of
Main and \Vashington streets on the east
side of the tracks. It is the belief of
the committee that the ' picked the
trouble and danger of suc i an arrange-
ment of gates.
Your committee asked if the gates
could not be constructed at that point
that would not require such objectiona-
ble features. President “‘atmus replied
that gates of that description could not.
be worked satisfactorily if longer than
45 feet each.
Your committee inquired if there was
not a different style which would oh-
viate those obiectious. President “‘at-
mus answered that other kinds of gates
were in use. but none that worked so
rapidly and satisfactorily. He told the
committee that. he would send \'ice~
President Reed of the Consolidated road
down to consult with Superintendent
Crawford of the Danbury and Norwalk
railroad. and promised that the best
practicable plan would be sought for.
: With mutual expressions of courtesy
the meeting adjourned. ~
. A few days since the railroad officials
iignifled their readiness to submit a new
plan of gates. As before the meeting
was held in the oflice. of President Lock~
wood. In addition to the before-men-
tioned officials \‘iced‘rcsident Reed of
the Consolidated road attended the "1901*
in: and offered a new plan of gates. He
said it was the most practicable plan
known for said crossing.
Your committee said that thcv had
communicated with the Long sland
milroad upon the subject. and that they
had said that there was a gate in use up—
on their road 90 feet long. Vice-Presi-
dent Reed replied that this was undoubt-
edly true. but that the gate mentioned
was of the pattern which worked be-
tween two posts—raising and lowering
like a window sash. He said that the
gates of that style were very cumber-
some and slow in operation. and that
they were dangerous to pasrwrs by on ac-
count of their slow action. He said that
everywhere they were being discarded
and replaced by the method he recom-
mended.
Your committee inquired if the com~
ponies urged this method on account of
its cheapness. He answered that on the
contrary it was more firstly than most
others. He said that the railroads de-
sired to satisfy the people and assure
them that the companies wanted to do
what was right in the mat ter.
The meeting then adjourned to the
railroad crossing and looked the ground
over carefully and unanimously decided
that the plan presented was the most
practicable known to the officials and
your committee.
The officials then said that the gates
would be built or not as the citizens de-
sire: that-they could be put in operation
in a short time.
President \Vatrous expressed the hope
that the citizens would carefully consid.
er the subject. remembering that there
were arguments for and against gates as
well as no gates. and that a railroad
must nccemarily be something of a uni
sauce as well as a great blessing. and
that the end sou ht for was how to re
tain the fewest o jectioniible points. .
In conclusion your committee would
say that they have not depended upon
the opinion of the railroad officials alone.
but that they have given the task aasign~
ed them honest work : ‘ have studied
the matter carefully ; have consulted the
wishes of citizens: have corresponded
with railroad companies and gate iiiven~
tors. and they do now recommend the
plan of gates last presented by the “m.“
panieaus the best plan known for said
crossing.
It wi l he observed that the post yet
remains in the street. but it has been re-
moved to a point where it. will be scarce-
ly an impediment to travel. as very few
teams pass over the spot indicated. and
the man who operates the tee is robe
stationed at that post, there y‘removing
very much of the danger of said post.
The gates on the cost side of the tracks
have been changed also. now awmging
parallel with the tracks. instead of block
ading both cast \Vashington and lower
Main streets.
We believe. therefore. that the an
presented is the best one for the p ace
and worthy of your attention and adop-
tion. Respectfuily submitted.
