' . “Under the ’call of Warden Sloan, a special City Meeting will be held at the Town House this evening at 8 O’clock, for the purpose of hearing any reports, recommendations or information ‘that the Water Commissioners may offer re- garding the present water supply, the condition of the. water works and the ' needs of the future ; also to authorize and cmpoWer the Water Commission- ers, if deemed advisable, to build a suitable reservoir upon the site pur- chased, and to make the necessary ap- propriation to pay for the same. It is the duty of every tax-payer in the new City of 1N orwalk to attend this meeting and take whatever part there- in he may deem best for the good of the city. 'We are now over the threat- - ened water famine, and it remains for the taxep‘ayers to say whether an addi- , tional expense of from $75,000 to $100,- 000 shall be put upon the new city at thaws, when the financial depression is so great and money so hard to ob- tain. The present wretched water service is costing/the people nearly, if not fully, $4,000'3per year to run, notwith- standing the gigantic etforts of some one to hide the facts from the tax-pays ers; and it is, therefore, the duty of ~ every one to be'present at the meeting to-night, ~to the end that some light may. be threwn upon the present man- ner and cost of running the water de- partment. ' .. - Brighter Skies. . The triumphal passage of the Wilson bill in the House. repealing the en- forced silver-purchasing clause of the Sherman law, renders'the passage of that measure, or its equivalent, by the Senate, and its signing by the Presi- dent, within a brief period of time, «reasonably certain. All the moral ef- fect upon the business conditions of the country of its absolute repeal, are therefore practically realized, and a - more hopeful feeling has in reality spread the entire country. But as the Gamma, with other influential papers,‘ has so often suggested, it is not all the silver-purchases by the National Treas- ury that has caused such wide-spread financial distrust and business disturb- ance. The fear that a new Tariff sys- tem, radically difl’erent fromthatwhich .has obtained for nearly a: third of .a century, will be adopted by the present Congress and approved by the Presi- dent, still menacos the country, and that of itself will continue the hard times and prolong the business paraly- sis, unless some assurance 'is felt that the President will not permit laws to be placed on the statute books which will Work such grave mischief. Mr. Cleveland is master of the situation. Without his approval no Tarifl' revision will be possible, and luckily. on this point he has many wise counselors in his own political party. In a belief that the President will favor that protection which 'they so much need, mills would- soon be re- suming, workingmcn earning wages, the banks taking'fresh courage, the big crops harvested, and confidence return. It is a patriotic duty to look on the , ' brightening skies and draw from them the strength which will restore our prosperity. Let it be hoped, there- fore. that as soon as the silver. bill is out of the‘way, Vagsim'pie resolution, such as has been-already offered in the Senate, reciting the fact that the Fifty- third Congress will let the tarifi‘ alone, will be passed. ' ' ' ’ . ' ' . Let the natural-apprehensiori of tariff ' tinkering by the Democratic party. he removed, and the mills and factories V will start up; a sin before the. wi to f ' ‘ ' ’ " g ' ‘ ‘ ' n r But little trouble was ex erienced in comes enigend their once happy but now'idle operatives can resumetheir- ' employments. 'It is because the manufacturer does I. not know how the pledgedrevision of _' the tariff will shoot his business that he shuts down or runs from hand to mouth, waiting developments. If the tariff should be revised in accordance with the Chicago platform, and the theory of protection eliminated, manu- facturers could even then begin by offering the wages received in Great Britain in similar industries. But manufacturers can do nothing until they know what the Democratic Con- gress and Administration will do. The threatened tariff disturbance must be definitely ’settled before' we can‘hope to see the good times 'Of, recent years return to us again. .___————-————... TERSE TALES ‘Ol‘rTHETIMES.

Act In the repel Fight. THE BATTLE mooniii'rrsr. Ln Effort Will Be Made to substitute the Voorhees Bill For the Wilson Bill» Adopted by the House—Silver Men Less. Confident. WASHINGTON, Aug. 30.—The great silver fight now centers inthe senate, and it may be weeks before a result is reached. The Wilson bill, which was passed by the house yesterday, has been referred to the senate finance committee, where a long fight» will doubtless take place over the advisability of reportingvit to the senate in-place'of the Voorhees bill,“ ‘which is practically the same except that it declares for bimetals 5 , “ * lism. A. Already the silver element in the senate has weakened perceptibly. The men who " were most confident a few days ago that congress would remain in continuous ses- sion till the 4th of March, 1895, beme all would cease talking and give the senate a chance to vote -on a repeal bill, have lost ' courage since studying the successive votes in the house. These zvotes tell a nicely graduated story. ' ' The smallest of the defeats of. the silver inflationists was on the proposal for the restoration of the Bland-Allison act, but even that was given a setback which puts ' its revival quite out of the question for the coming two years. The next smallest was on the prOposal for free coinage at thepres- ent ratio. . - The next was the proposal for free coin- age at the highest figure of all the ratios, . for this caught some of the silver men who . did not care so much about technical con- sistency as about going before the country with the record of trying to make the bullion values of the two dollars approach each'other. ' ‘ , . » , In the other ratio votes little interest was apparent, as they were regarded as mere makeshifts anyway. Finally came the crushing defeat of the day—the vote to re- peal the purchasing clause of the Sherman act, for which more than than 20 of the out- ' i right free coinage men voted, because they . had no eXcusc for not doing so after they had been given a. vote on everything they wanted and been fairly overborne by num- bers. - ‘ ‘ The votes in the house yesterday showed the force of public opinion acting through individuals and masses of men in private life upon their representatives in one chains ,- _ber of congress. '. The atmosphere-bf the?— senate already_sh0ivs the same force of- pub- lic opinion acting through the chamber " which stands the nearer to the voters of the country upon the chamber which stands, the more remote, and the influence Of this graduated series of defects cannot fail to increase as the senate continues to scruti- nize it in all its aspects.
