Democracy and the Pension List.
The Republican party wrecked itself
upon the Scylla of the force bill. The

Democratic party is drifting ‘dangcr- g

ously near the Charybdis of ingrati-
tude, says the Washington Post. The
people frowned upon a measure so vi-
cious and oppressive as Mr. Lodge’s
bill to dragoon the ballotbox. The
same people will rebuke and punish an
attack upon the men; who saved the
Union. , ,,

It may be that there are frauds under
the pension laws. If so, the old soldiers,
the real soldiers, the men who bore
the heat and: stress and burden of
the tragedy, will be the first to de-
nounce and to aid in up‘rooting them.
The derelict, the camp follower, the
sknlker is as hateful in the brave man’s
eyes today as he was some thirty years
ago, when danger was his constant fare
and death his never-absent comrade.
No manwho did his duty honestly,
who offered his life upon the altar, who
raised against the country’s enemy the
bulwark of a steadfast heart—no such
man as" that would countenance an im-
posture upon the pension laws. If cir-
cumstances warrant an inquiry, if it be
Certain or even reasonably probable
that evils exist; then we make bold to
say, on behalf of the old soldiers,
whether pensioners or not, that they
' would have that inquiry as searching,
as strict, as comprehensive as, possible.
They do not want to see the nations’s
gratitude abused. They would not
have the noble tatters of the heroes
filched for thieves to masquerade and
prey in. '

But certain Democratic organs, or

would-be exponents of the administra-
tion, are gradually adopting a tone in
this respect which bodes ill for the par-
ty’s hold upon popular respect and con-
fidence. By slow degrees, but steadily
and surely, they are falling into the
way of mentioning the pensioners as a
class with contemptuOns scorn. They
are creating or trying to create a habit

of disparagement toward the men who ’

made the armies of Grant, Sherman,
Sheridan, Hancock and Thomas. In
their philosophy a pensioner is a paras-
ite, a drone, a leech. Because they
suspect an imposition here and there,
they take an attitude of aversion and
distrust with reference to the whole
. body of the pensioners, and strive-to
educate the country’s mind to class
them all as charlatans and burdens.
And we say to thé Democrats, as we
said to the Republicans, when Mr.
Lodge and Mr. Hoar essayed to over-
throw the ballot box: Look well to
your footsteps as you move!

Public sentiment is not yet ripe—in
our opinion it never will be—for a re-
pudiation of the patriots‘who helped to
. save the union from destruction. Men
are not willing to hear the veterans of-
the war disposed of with a sneer. The
spirit that made heroes then survives in
millions of American heartsto-day. 'It

is part ,of our national‘life—the fine -

essence. that guarantees our liberties by
making us worthy of the sires who won

them for us. Let the Democratic-part

ty beware of tendencies and l-iaders
who would wake that spirit now. Dead
as the Confederacy is in this'fair year
of ’93, it were a hopeful corpse beside
the party that would defile the laurels
of the reestablished Union.

The long looked for decision of the
railroad commissioners in reference to
the crossings at Stratford was received
by the selectmen of the town Saturday.
The decision is a complete victory for
the town. 'At a recent hearing before

pany asked to, have the King street
and Old Mill hill crossings closed but

Mill road crossings. They further state
that the railroad shall pay the expen-
ses incurred in bud ing the crossings
and that the town s all be free from
any expense.

The Injunction case Again Post“
Doned. - '

Will be Decided Wednesday.

The hearing of the injunction case of
the N orwalk Horse Railroad company
against the Tramway campany ,was
heard by Jud 6 Hall in Bridgeport
Saturday. A ’ arge number 0
nesses from Norwalk were. present in
the interest of the Tramway, butJudge
Hall declined to hear them, as he stat-
edfhe was well informed as to the gen-
eral feeling in Norwalk towards the
Tramway. The Horse Railroad placed
two witnesses on the stand, Attorney
Levi Warner and Superintendent E.
G. Hoyt of the Horse Railroad. Mr.
Warner gave a general history of the
.layout of the road thirty years ago, and
Hoyt testified as to the road paying
for the pavmg between and outside the
rails. Engineer Hill was placed on the
stand by the Tramway company and
gave a thorough explanation of the
Tramway’s .la out. ,He also explained
to Judge Hal how the difficulty on
Wall street could be overcome and de-
scribed how the moving of the Horse
Railroad tracks to the North could be
accomplished and gave an estimate of
the cost of so doing.

After Engineer Hill had concluded
his testimony the Judge inquired if
the Tramway company had any pro-
position to offer towards moving the
Horse Railroad tracks to the North.
Attorney Stoddard then offered on be-
half of the Tramway company to pay
half of the expense incurred in moving
the tracks and an equitable part of the
‘cost of neW' ties etc. The jud e then
adjourned the arguments in t e case
until Monday morning at 10 o’clock.

At the conclusion of the arguments in
the injunction case this morning at
Bridgeport, Judge Hall announced that
he would reserve his decision until
Wednesday.

Memorial Sermon.

Memorial-day services were held at
the Congregational church on Sunday
evening. It was a union meeting.
About sixty members of Buckingham
Post, G. A. B., were present, and_the
church was crowded with those anXions
to take part in doing honor to the mem-
ory of those who had fallen in defense
of their country. The singing was 'es-
pecially fine, and was in full keeping
with the occasion. Rev. F. E. Robbins,
of the Baptist church, read a portion
of- the scriptures, and Rev. Mr: Wyatt
made the prayer. The sermon was
preached by Rev. Dr. Noble, pastor of
the church, his text being “ The Doc-
trine and Duty of Loyalty.” Rev. Mr.
Seward read an original poem. The
entire meeting was very interesting
and instructive, and was greatly appre-
ciated by those present. The‘sermon
was one of Dr. Noble’s best efforts,
and was grand. »

cepted. He was tendered a vote of

which the resignation was reluctantly
accepted, and Thomas F. O’Rourke, of
