THE FAVORITE HOME PAPER.

The Gazette has the largest cir-

. on, Our Courts.
Under the ridiculous inefficiency of
the grand juror and justice court sys-
tem, says the Willimantic Journal,
almost anybody can vent a petty. spite,
or small-fry lawyers attempt to boom
business by getting out a complaint
against an innocent man, expose him to
the ignominy of arrest and notoriety of
a trial—and the town pays the bills. It
has come to a state where a grand
juror, with the $1.06 apparently obscur-
ing, to an extent, all other considers.
lions, will sign a complaint with little
or no investigation, some of the numer-
ous justices for one reason or another
or none at all will take the case and an
officer has the disagreeable duty of ar-
resting some one he doesn’t believe
guilty. If the lease falls flat without
any defense the town pays the expense
-—and it is rather heavy in these cases
too. Then when it comes to placing
the responsibility, there are so many
parties to it, it’s rather hard to do. A
city court will go far toward remedying
this, it is greatly to be hoped. No man
who has an enemy—and who has not, is
safe now from trouble at the town’s
expense.
Republican Opportunity.
As the sap rises in the long dead
trunk of the Republican party, as the
birds begin to sing again in its branch-
es and other signs of rejuvenation to
manifest themselves, says the Washing-
ton Post, we become aware of the sud-
den reappearance of' a number of once
familiar figures, and of their unwel-
come prominencc in the joyous tableau.
All the old bosses and leaders whose
besotted infatuation and stupid mis-
management led to the defeat of the
Republican party and whose influence
in politics was so emphatically rebuked
last year, are now emerging from ob-
scurity and claiming places in the ex-
ultant foreground.
Whether the Republican party will
submit to the proposition involved in
this sinister revival is a question the
party must settle for itself. Upon
some human beings and institutions
calamity exerts no enlightening effect,
and the Republican organization may
be in that class. But no prophetic gift
is needed to foresee that a restoration
of the old arrangement and a reaccept- '
ance of the old methods and command.
ers will cut the Republican resurrec-
tion very short and leave it more hope-
lessly defunct than ever. The party
was defeated last year by its own
fatal blundering and blindness. It
was defeated, not by Democratic
prowess but by Republican delin-
quency. Every one who has examined
the figures of the returns knows that.
And, now that Democracy has sufl‘er‘ed
a downfall, and an opportunity for Be-
publican statesmanship, patriotism and
manhood once more presents itself, we
shall watch with interest the manner in
which that opportunity is met. There
is not a discredited and repudiated old
wirepuller from Maine to California
who is not at this moment brushing
the straw of exde out of his hair and
getting ready to take hold again.
From the state boss down, through
descending layers of impudent preten-
sion, to the most superfluous committee
door-keeper, one and all they are com-
ing out to bask in the sunlight which
they did nothing to produce and which,
but for them, might never have gone
behind the cloud at all. ,
The question is whether the Republii
can party has learned from defeat and-
.humiliation wisdom enough to rehabili-
tate itself in popular respect and confi-
dence. It is a question for the solution
of which, we shall not have long to
wait.

Those Tribky Meters.
MR. EDITOB:—Th‘e public'have been
greatly interested iii your amusing nar-
ratives of the performances of your
water meter. Few know what" tricky
institutions meters. of all kinds are.
The antics of a. trick mule cannot equal
some of them in bewildering perform-
ances. The whole; meter race is "a
fraud, 8. delusion and a snare.” The
best of them, theggas meter, is pur-
posely constructed; so as to register
against the consumer and in favor of
the companies. The farmer and manu-
facturer has to sell his commodities by
the weight and measures of' the pur-
chasers. The gaslcompanies furnish
their own meters t" measure your gas,
or you get no gas. ._ or is this all, vari-
ous “tricks-of trad ” are also resorted
to, such as thinni g gas with naptha
and other volatile ‘ngredients; putting
excessive pressurean the mains so as
to make the metersigive a false and ex-
cessive register, e“. Probably Nor-
walk gas is as hone 2 ly served as at any
other place and yeélet consumers note
the, present smoke) from the gas, the
' ' . etc , as compared
with it when night were less long and
the expectation oftlarge gas bills not
so general and itsg large use not so
much of a neCessity} .
Next, consider in" electric light me-
ter. It is well kn‘ wn that in many
places in town, t ese meters do not
register anything If c all they should,
while in other pla es they denote a
great deal more. Edison, the world’s
first and best electrical expert, says no
mechanical contrivance can be made to
correctly denote the passage of elec-
tric- energy over a Wire. He knows, if
any one does, and “experience proves
him to be correct. ome new method,
of so much per light per hour or other
way, will ultimately be settled upon,
for determining amount of electricity
used in lighting buildings. The elec-
tric meter, unlike the gas meter, is as
dishonest and dangerous to the com-
pany as to the Consumer.
Then comes the; frisky, capricious
and lying water met r. All experience
proves them to be 'totally unreliable.
Thc best hydraulic‘engineers aver they
cannot be made to !register correctly.
Wherever they have been used, they
have soon or late been cast out and
sold for old iron. Yet our inconsider-
ate water commissioners haVe sduan-
dered a large sum ‘of the tax-payers’
money in the purchase of these tricky
falsifiel‘s. They were no doubt actu-
ated by an honest phIpOse to serve the
public interests, but had the money
Come from their own pockets would
they not have got better posted before
purchasing these uptorious falSifiers?
As all these moterdwfor which meters
were bought are shut. off whenever
water is scarce, and they are used only
when water would otherWise run to
waste over our reservoir dams. Would
it not be wiser and in the interest of
our local business prosperity, to en-
courage, instead of discourage the use
of water motors, and stop, as all other
plaCes have, the use of these ridiculous
water meters ? ‘
It would seem that the G ZETTE water
meter is supplying the orcugh with
water at so fearfully rapid a rate, that
m time, it will bankrupt us, if it is not
cut off. It seems to be unraveling it-
self, as it were, or as Mr. Camp sug-
gests, has turned itself around and is
goxng the other way. Still, if the Bor-
ough has a valid claim against you for
use of water as thus registered when it
Went the normal way, why have not
you a claim for the forty millions of
gallons their own Witness testifies that
you have furnished the Borough? How
would a jury decide such a case?
It is current gossip, that your brother
Maples having refused to pay his Water
tax, has been threatened by the C0m~
missioners with having his motive
power shut off, and that if this is at-
tempted, he purposes to sue out an in-
junction restraining the authorities
from interfering with his continued
free use of the Borough Water for run-
ning his presses. He is a litigious crit-
ter and enjoys the notoriety of a law
suit greatly. He moreover enjoys more
than anything else, making the life of
any one who opposes him, miserable
through his paper. He opened his bat-
tery upon the water commissioners Sat-
urday under the caption “Official Ig-
norance,” wherein he dei isively said of
the board:
“ One is a. clerk in a. d‘y goods store».
One is a baker, who also manufactures con-
fec. ionery an 1 ice cream.
One is a real estate and insurance agent,
who was a dentist, who was a grocer, who was
a clerk.” ,
It is easy to read between his lines
the derision and defamation he intends,
as if it matters in a man’s standing,
whether it is the selling of a paper for
three cents, tape for five, bread for ten
or real estate for thousands. But the
animus is shown and the animal also.
There was a time when he was all obse.
quiousness to the baker and was his
masonic guide and tutor. "For the den-
tist, who was a clerk.” he has long
nursed some hidden grudge. It is but
a few years ago that he wantonly, inde-
cently and brutally assailed him With
the publication that ihe only smart
thing he ever did was to marry a rich
man’s daughter. This t0o, when the
rich man referred to, was giving him
friendly and financial aid. He is al-'
ways most dangerous to those who have
helped him most. If ever a man should
have been grateful to another, he should
be to ex-Senator Hill, who in season
and out Of season, has coddled, ad-
vised, succored and helped him to bet-
ter social association and position, with
the tender pity a mother shows to a de-
crepit or half-witted child, and yet note
(he exasperatin:, morlifying “ dead
give-away ” he put on Hill at the State
editorial convention. Like the clumsy
elephant, he is surest to step on those
nearest to him.
The public do not approve these as
saults on its oflicmls, who give their
time and talents, whatever they are, to
its sermon, without pay, and in .many
cases Without thanks. It is remem-
' bered'tnat during {the water famines We.

charged “cannot read”) to let the water
on full force into the Hour’s main so as
to turn its press over Friday night.
That fact, with this last assault recalls
the Scripture text—“Cast thv pearls
before a swine and he will turn and
rend you.”
But Mr. Editor, if you want a little
local excitement to help sell your al-
ready newsy and lively paper, why,
don’t you swap water meters with Mr.
Maples and let him we the Borough
for the water that elusive instrument
goes to show is being supplied the pub-
lic? He would gladly do it and pay
the costs of the action most cheerfully,
even if defeated at the end. The de-
light it would give his cranky egotism,
the gratification of his almost insane
craving for notoriety and his malignant
love of revenge, would be ample recom-
pense. _
But the meter should go. It is “a
fraud. 9. delusion and a snare,” without
redeeming qualities. ,

“THE KIND THAT CURES. ”

May Be Shut Out.
The independent trains of the New
York & New England Railroad must go.
The New York, New Haven & Hart~
ford Railroad sounded the note of war
l‘hui-sday by giv1ng out orders for
abolishing the special trains of the
New England Company out of the
Grand, Central station on and after No-
vember 19, when the new schedule goes
into effect.
The New England company is given
some through cars on the noon train
and the three o’clock train, or as Presi-
dent Clark, of the New Haven road,
explains it, “half a train” at each of
those times. But they are both made
six hour trains. The three o’clock
“white train,” which now makes the
time in five hours and forty minutes, is
thus really abolished, and .the New
England company, with two or three
or even four cars, Will stand no show
against the five hour limited trains by
the Shore line. President Clark ex-
plains that the two noon trains have
been “consolidated,” so also the tWo
o’clock and three o’clock trains, but to
the New England officials it comes as a
severe setback.
This means that after many years the
threat that has long been held over the
head of the New Haven’s enemy is to
be carried out at last and the New Eng-
land rOad will sooner or later be shut
out of New York for good, unless it
can‘find some way to build its own line
into New York.
For several weeks the New England
officials have been giving out stories
about their proposed new entrance into
New York with a possible connection
with the Manhattan Elevated railroad.
Here is the New Haven company’s
answer:
“Letthem do it. In the meantime
they may have a chance to get along
without an entrance for their trains in-
to the Grand Central station.”

Prominent People Speak l-l-ighlyof
Doctor David Kennedy’s!
Favorite Remedy.
A great many persons to our know-
ledge have voluntarily pronounced Dr.
Kennedy’s Favorite Remedy successful
in curing them of disease. here are a
number of statements that aga.n dc-
monstrate the value of this med cine.
Cummander James S. Dean, of Gen.
Grant Post, G. A. R., Readout, N. Y.,
contracted an aggravated Stomach
trouble _1n the Army, which resulted
in chronic dyspepsia. He suffered un-
told misery until he used Dr. David
Kennedy’s Favorite Remedy. “After
using it a week,” says Commander
Dean, "I felt better, and in a short
while was entirely cured, that terrible
distress and foodbreaking up sour in
my throat had all gone. Today there
isn’t a healthier man on earth."
Rev. I. W. Hill, pastor Methodist
Church, 'ACCord, N. Y.: “ I can speak
h ghly of D.. Kennedy’s Favorite Re.-
medy as a blood medicine. Ten years
ago I had a cancer, e'noved from my
lip. .I then began tha use of Dr. Ken-
nedys Favorite Remedy, and '0 this
day no eign_of the ugly thing has ap-
peared. ‘ '
The Sisters of Chaiity, St. Mary’s
Female Hospital, Brooklyn, l\.Y., say:
"the satisfaction we realize from the
use of Dr David Kennedy's Favorite
Remedy, far surrassed all expecuation."
The Worst cases of eczema, salt rheum
and scrofula yield to its curative power;
nervousness, sleeplessness, liver and
kidney Complaints, and all urinary
troubles are cured by its use. The
demand for the valuable preparation
is so great that every drug store has it
on sale.
