' The Gazette hasthe'largest cir— culation of’any paper in Norwalk. and furnishes the lowest advertisinz fates. ‘ ’ Give Them a Layout. The Tramway company having noti- fied the Court of Burgesses that unless a layout is at once given them through the Bridge they will proceed to select their own and lay tracks within forty- eight hours, it is hoped that the Court will cease procrastinating and give them a layout that will be to the best interest of the people. Everybody interested in the growth, prosperity and business interests of Norwalk isin favor of the 'Iramway. There are, we are sorry to say, two or three resident property owners in town opposed to making Norwalk other than a home for the wealthy, and will make a futile effort to prevent the Tramway company from running their electric cars, but where there is one of this class a thousand laboring men appear, earning their living by honest toil, who are anxious to see rapid transit inaug- urated at once. These workingmen are the,bone and sinew of a town, and many of them own a little home on the outskirts and walk from two to five miles to work every day. These are the people who want an electric rail- road, and if an electric road will in- crease the value of their little proper- ty and afford them rapid transit to and from their workshops, the GAZETTE is in favor of having an electric roa without further delay. ’ What Was the Meaning? ' The older'the Cleveland administra- ‘tion becomes the more confusion there is concerning the verdict'rendered by the voters on the 8th of last November. During the progress of ,the campaign, says the“ Washington Post, we were daily informed by the New York ' Sun, which journal claims to be the highest democratic authority in the land, that there was but one issue. The Sun ad- mitted that . the Chicago platform touched upon other topics. but assured . the public that it meant but one thing, and that was “ No force bill; no negro domination.” The Sun so declared the day after Mr.Cleveland was nominated, _ and it kept-up the cry until the day of the election. , After the election, however, the posi- tion - of the Sun suddenly changed. True, the danger of force'bills and ne- gro domination had passed, and it was , .no longer necessary for that journal to daily picture the horrors that had been threatened by the Hoar-Lodge combi- nation. The mission of the Sun, so far as Mr. Cleveland was concerned,ap- peared to be at an end, but now we find that paper attempting to give an altogether different aspect to the cam- paign and election of 1892. Before the election the Sun assured us that» the tariff question was of no importance. Now it declares that the» Democratic party is committed firmly to free trade, and pledged to destroy the tariff its - platform pronounced to be unconstitu- tional and a robbery. What does the Sun 'mean by such con- duct ‘2 Can it be possible thatthis great Democratic light. which shines for all, has laid itself liable to a charge of 88! curing victory under false pretenses ? If the tariff was the real issue why did the Sun obscure it , with its brilliant charges against the force bill and ne- gro domination ? If the Sun is correct, and the voters did pronounce against the tariff, it would seem that it owes an explanation to its readers. Why did the Sun say “ force bill ”when it meant free trade ? .Two Peddlers Arrested. Coroner Mix arrived in Naugatuck Monday morning and atoms proceed- ed to hold‘an inquest into the circum- stances surrounding the burning to death Friday, of Mrs. Mary Monroe and little Maud Roberts. The wit- nessess were examined at the house where the fatality occurred. Dr. Bull, who was the first doctor on the scene, testified as to the condition of the bod- ies. It is reported that the leoroner found cause for suspicion and it is be- lieved by many that the little girl was criminally assaulted and then stunned or killed and the house set on fire to conceal the crime. The investigation raised a suspicion that the house was _ set on fire both upstairs and down. At any ratethe' result of the inquest was that Chief of Police Hosford went to Waterbury Monday afternoon, and with the help of Detective Egan, ar- rested Morris .Berkmann, a tin peddler, in a Jew boarding house on Canal street. Chief Hosford is confident that hehas the right man. Another tin ped- . dler named Joseph Gady Was also ar- . rested. They were" taken to Naugatuck" and locked up.

It is proper that I should declare explicitly its aims and purpose s and clearly outline its policy. As it, will be a novelty in Americ'a'ii‘re'ligious journalism, and will develop a mine of literature new to the people of the Wessern' hemisphere, it will, quite nat- urally attract some attention and may, possibly, arouse the active opposition of certain classes .of religionists, who, apparently, are of the opinion that the spiritual enlightenment of the masses is not desirable and should be dis- couraged in every possible way.” Hurt in a Rush.

Sanford, who was appointed by the government to make an investiga- tion into the 'extent of the damage to the Connecticut oyster industr by the storm of April 20 and 2lst,‘r as just completed his investigation.

Ofi' Nor- walk, Westport, Fairfield and Bridge- port was the most damaged portion of the sound. N orwalk and Westport was badly washed "and asmall per cent- age of the sanded ground was left in very bad condition. In order to plant some places it will cost thousands of dollars to clear it off. The oyster. grounds of Fairfield were washed and sanded, but the sanded oysters are coming out quite well. At Bridgeport the stock was left in ridges of sand and a large portion shows no signs of com- ing out. Averaging the damage, about three-quarters was done by sanding and the rest was due to washing. The greatest damage was on grounds cov- ered by water 30 to 40 feet deep. Two millions of dollars would no'more than make the loss good. It Will require thousands of dollars to get the grounds into condition for cultivation again, and many of the oysterman Will not run their ,steam dredges at all this sum- mer.’ § More inaccurate Meters. -An interesting question as to the ac- curacy of an electric meter _1n record- ing the amount of fluid which _18 sup- posed to pass through it was decided in an action tried before J udge_0sborne and a jury in the New York City Court last week. The plaintiff was the Edi- son Electric Illuminating Company and the defendant Lewis Jacobs, a mer- chant, who formerly had a retail store in Fulton street. ' _ _ It; was the first action of this kind ever tried in that city. Plaintiff claim- ed that Jacobs had used $122 worth_ of electricity for lighting purpose during the month of January, 1892. Mr. Jacobs claimed that he had only used $32 worth. ‘ _ The~ plaintiff put experts on- the stand, who testified that the amount-of electricity consumed by a customer was determined by the amount of zmc plate his supply wire disintegrated. company.

Thecalculator of the company, when placed upon the stand, was unable to reduce the ohms. to dollars and cents, and the jury nat- urally inferred that, inasmuch as he had made out the bill against Mr. Jacobs, there was at least ground for Mr. R. C, Peabody, the secretary of the company, refused to swear that he had not occasionally thrown off as much as 75 per cent. of the amount claimed on a bill. .
