Reserving Him for Governor.

The Bridgeport Farmer publishes an
interview with a Democrat said to be
well posted, who, after saying that Mr.
Benedict of Greenwich never aspired
to and would not accept a Cabinet posi-
tion, continues : “But we’re not going
to allow Mr. Benedict to keep himself
in the background. He’s going to be
the next Governor of this State, and
he’ll make a Governor, I am confident,
that the people of this State will be
proud of. No State more than this
needs in a Governor the thorough busi-
ness ability which is possessed by Mr.
His capacity for making
and retaining friends is remarkable,
and he has also that qualification poss-
essed by few men of securing the confi-

generai. He’ll make one of the best

Governors this state ever had and after

that~—weli, thqre are higher positions.”
A New Tax Row.

Messrs. Oliver E. Wilson, George
M. Holmes. Eben’r. J. Hill, Jacob M.
Layton and E. O. Keeler, succeeded in
having the town Board of Relief cut
down the assessments of their respec-
tive bank stock holdings thirty per
cent! This discovery, which resulted
from an accidental sight of one of the
party’s tax list in the town’s bound vol-
ume, caused the most intense excite-
ment and indignation on the part of
other local bank stock owners, because
they had not been similarly treated.
The Board of Belief consists of Messrs.
Bradley S. Keith,Platt Price and Henry
S. Seymour. Mr. Seymour was at once
sought and the demand made to know
why, when this was done for the parties
named, in fairness and equity the same
abatement was not made on the lists of
all bank stock owners alike ? Mr. Sey-
mour said he was opposed to the re-
duction as unfair, unless it was to be
made for all, but was overruled by his
two associates on the Board, the excuse
for their action being that no one else
had asked for any. abatement. The
answer to this was, that no other bank
stock ownershad any knowledge that
such an abatement was to be, or would
be made for anybody, and in effect, if
not in fact, it was asecret, irregular
and indecent transaction. To this it is
answered that there was no justice in
rating property invested in banks at
any higher rates than when invested in
real estate or other property. That
while the practice had obtained of tax-
ing all sound and prosperous bank
stocks up to their full par value, if not
up to premium value, it was an unjust
discrimination, inasmuch as real estate
and personal property rarely went into
the lists at an appraisal of more than
two-thirds value.

The amounts assessed respectively
and the five abatements, are as fol-

lows :
Ass’d Ab‘t’d

Q. E. Wilson. $1,000 Bk. Norwalk $1.000 $300
13. J. Hill. 2.300 “ “ 2,300 690
or. M. Holmes, 5.000 Central 5.000 1,500
E. O. Keeler, 5,200 Fairfield Co. 5.200 1,584
J. M. Layton, 1.600 So. N. City 1.600 480

The simple fact of the abatement is
not the cause of so much bitter. and in-
dignant criticism as the fact that it was,
as is charged, secretly limited to these
five gentlemen and no one else given
knowledge that such a condition of
things had been inaugurated by the
Board of Belief. The claim is made
and with a show of justice, that if an
abatement was to be made for one. it
ought to have been made for every
bank stock owner in town and the pub-
lic sentiment will be very likely to set—-
tle upon this reasonable conclusion.

What the end is to he, cannot as yet
be stated. The Board has held its last
session. Whether it «can 'be legally
called together again to right the

then law suits and injunctions are like—

tense to let the matter drop.

No Justices of the Peace.

There will be no justices of the
peace in- the state of Connecticut on
.l‘hursday, Friday and Saturday of
next week.

It seems that by statute the terms of
the various justices of the peace elec-
ted all over the state begin on the first
Monday in March and last just two
, ears. Two years ago the terms of
Justices began on March 2d; which was
the date of the month that Monday
happened to come on.

This year the first Monday does not
come until March 6th.

The terms of the old justices will ex-
pire at midnight on March 1, which is
a Wednesday, thus completing their
two years, while the new justices wont
begin their duties until the 6th of
March, which comes on Monday.

If the old justices attempt to continue
in office on Thursda , Friday and Sat-
urday they may fin themselves in an
unpleasant predicament. The probabil-
ity is that now that attention has been
called to the matter there will be no
justice of the peace on those days and

the legislature will probably amend '

the law to prevent a repetition of the
complication in the future.

OPERA HOUSE.

Downing’s Creole Minstrels will
show at N orwallg Opera House Friday
and Saturday evenings. They are the
genuine Creole Minstrels that have
traveled all over the country, and
given great satisfaction. There will
be familiar plantation songs, dances
and scenes and the usual accompani-
ment of good jokes and funny, inci-
dents. l‘hey have received praise on
all sides and as a mmstrel troupe they
rank with the best. They carry their
own orchestra and band With them.

MUSIC HALL.

Speaking of, the modern drama,
George Wilson, the minstrel man, tells
of a Hodge Podge he saw recently on
an off night.

It was one of the typical modern

melo dramas with the heavy villain”

the old hag. the lovenand the rollick-
ing soubrette. The Villain in between
schemes, found time to sing one of
Harrigan’s latest songs in a deep basso
voice; the old hag changed her cos-
tume and sang, “I am the Pet of the
Dudes,” and the lover danced a sand
jig. That wasn’t so had; what broke
George all up, was in the third act;
the scene was supposed to be in the far
West, during a blizzard; the snow
was flying thick and fast, and the hero
of the piece had lost his way and was
slowly dying a horrible death' from ex-
posure, when .in dashes the soubrette
in a short dress wearing a straw hat.
She sings a song, does a few jig steps
and then turns around, walks to the
back of the stage and rescues the un-
fortunate hero from the terrible storm,
amid great applause from the gallery.

- George says that settled him. He hur-

ried out of the theatre as quickly as
possible. He said he would not have
stayed to see the last act for a ten dol-

' lar bill.

which appears at Music Hall, Feb. 27th,

the horses danced; another walked in
circles and in a figure eight, going to
the right or left, _accord1ng as anyone
in the audience might choose to direct.
Two of the horses also teetered upon a

plank and there were many other
equally. interesting acts given by the

complaint in reference to the service
given the borough by the Norwalk and
South Norwalk Electric .Light com-
pany. He stated that several of the

The Mystery Solved.

There has been the greatest curios-
ity for a long time, to discover how it
was that long after midnight and when
the electric lights on the East side, had
been extinguished for hours and all
honest people were supposed to be in
bed, if not asleep, that these lights
from the M. E. church, to Cross street.
Belden avenue and River street would
suddenly flash up and turn the deep
darkness 'ust before day, into .mer-
idian brig tness. This was not only a
deep and imcomprehensble mystery,
to the natives who chanced to be awake
but a source of serious mortification
and embarassment to sundry benc-
diets who had tarried too long at the
wine or other intoxicants and made
“a night of it” With the boys and were
sneakincJr home’ in the wee sma’ hours
of the usky morning and trying to
conceal themselves—and their inebria-
ted condition from any chance street
walker and their families. These

 

habit of flashing ful upon them and
revealing their identity and condition.
These eulprits attributed it to some
mischievous wight connected with
the Electric Light works, who as
they thought, . was set upon giving
them away. And so the. wonder grew,
until now the murder is out. It seems
that the Superintendent of the Elec-
tric plant has a strong weakness for
billiards and betimes remains pushing

long after Qmidnight, when he tele-
phones up to his assistants to flash on
the lights 50 that he may escape mud
and pitfalls en route home. This as
we are assured is the full explanation
of the mystery.
