The Times Against Them.
In his speech before the \Democratic
State convention‘of Massachusetts ac-
cepting the nomination for Governor,
Mr. Russell took particular pains to ad-
monish his friends that they had noth-
ingbefore them but a certaintyiof de-
feat at the forthcoming election. There
was net even the ghost of a chance for
success. “We will lose,” he said, “be-
cause the times are against us.”
This is not’ the sort of speech to
rouse the enthusiasm of the Bay State
, Democracy to a very high pitch, but it
is well to face a foregone conclusion
bravely and better to accept a bad sit-
uation as it is than undertake to gloss it
over with empty and illusory sugges-
tions that it may not turn out as badly
’ as it might.
.- It is true, indeed, that the “times”
are against the Democracy. N 0 party
could be expected to weather with any
pronounced success such a combination
of adverse circumstances as during the
past eighteen months has operated to
the prejudice 'of the party in power.
, Even the failure of the corn crop in
the West is charged up against the
administration. . Had a ‘- pestilencc ' de-
vastated the country the Democratic
party would have been held responsible
for it. .
The New York Democrats.
Mr. Whitney’s letter to the chairman
of the State committee is a strong effort
to get the Democrats of New York
together. He begs them to recognize
that their opponents are entirely united
in an aggressive piirtisan campaign and
that if the Democfats select this time
to settle Old scores among themselves,
they will simply turn the State over to
the Republicans.
This is the plain truth. New York is
a Democratic State as distinctly as
Pennsylvania is a Republican. The
Republicans can hardly‘ lose Pennsyl-
vania even when they try, though they
have once of twice succeeded when
theirI lepders had fairly slappedgthe
people in‘the face, says the democratic
Philadelphia Times, And while there
is a larger proportion of independent
voters among the majority in New
York and the State is more easily turn-
ed, yet it is only the Democrats them-
selves that can give it to the Republi-
cans.
This is what some of them are trying
to do now. A faction in Brooklyn that
did not get recognition in the State
Convention has nominated Everett P.
Wheeler for Governor, substituting his
name for Hill’s on the State ticket.
How large a following the Shepard
people represent is uncertain. The.
purpose of the movement, of course, is
to give the State Democracy ‘a chance
to vote the Democratic ticket without
indorsing Hill, and under ordinary cir-
cumstances this would bea commend-
able purpose. But the Republicans-are
making such a straight machine fight
that the opposition to Hill commands
much less active sympathy among anti-
machine Democrats than it did before
his nomination.
It looked then as though the May-
nard campaign was to be repeated.
But the defeat of Maynard was a purely
nonpartisan demonstration intended
as a rebuke to the abuse ‘Ofpartisan
power. The present campaign has
taken the form of an effort to substitute
one machine for another, and Mr.
Whitney puts its mildly when he says
that “if the management of the De:
mocracy is narrow, I donot see that
the Republican machine is any less so.”
Hill himself, continues the Times, never
concocted anything boldei' or worse
than the constitutional gerrymander,
proposed by the highly respectable
Republican majority of the late conven-
tion.
Whether the New York Democrats
can pull themselves together between
this and election there are now no cer-
tain indications. If they do, there
should be no question of their holding
the state. If they do not, but prefer to
devote their energies to fighting one
another, Mr. Platt Will walk away "with
the whole concern, and not only con
trol the Governor, but have the Legis-
lature so tied up that even a Demo-
cratic landslide could hardly shake it
out of his hands for the next ten years.

Congressman DeForest.
Hon. Robert E. DeForest, the nomi-
, nee of the Fourth District Democracy
for their candidate for re-election to
Congress, is the subject of the follow-
ing official biography in the Congress-
ional Directory. He is, moreover, a
man of most pleasing personality, a
fascinating orator, adroit debater and
an all around "good fellow.” He is
pretty sure to get his party vote, but as
this is not the bearing year for Demo-
cratic candidates, he will have to hustle
if he gets any large share of the inde-
pendent and floating vote of the district
away from Hill. But to the biographi-
‘ cal record : ’ ‘ ’ '
Fourth Connecticut District, Fair
field and Litchfield Counties. .‘ Popula-
tion last census, 203,623. '
Ronnnr E. DEFonssr'of Bridgeport,
was bornin:Guilford, ~Conn.—, February
20.«1845.;i'~.swas brought up on a farm;
was educated "in Guilford Academy and
Yale College, from which latter‘institn-
tion he was graduated in 1867.; taught
school ; studdied law, and was admitted
to'the bar in1868; located in the city
of Bridgeport, where he has since
practiced his profession ; in 1875 he was
appointed Prosecuting Attorney for the
city of Bridgeport; in 1874 was elected
by the legislature of Connecticut,
Judge of the Court of Common .Pleas
for Fair field County, which position he
held for three years ; in 1878 was elected
Mayor of Bridgeport ; in 1880 was
elected to the Legislature; in 1882 was ,
elected to the State Senate ; was _Cor-
poration Council for the city of Bridge-
port; was elected Mayor in 1889, and
re-elected in 1890 ; and was elected to
the Fifty—second and re-elected to the
receiving 24,035. votes, . against 21,825
votes for Frederick Miles, Republican,
892 votes for W. R. Miles, Prohibition-
ist, and 29 votes for Beldeu, Peoples.
Houllhan Renominated.
A Danbury despatch says: Senator
M. J. Houlihan of Newtown was re-
nominated by the 15th district conven-
tion, held on Wednesday. He received
25 out of the 27 votes cast on the first
ballot and the nomination was made
unanimous. Unexpected trouble arose
over the choice of a state central com-
mitteeman. William McPhelcmy of
Danbury was a candidate for re-election
and opposed to him was William Foley
the candidate of organized labor.
When a vote was taken McPhelemy
had 17 out of 29 votes. On the ground
that the votes were in excess of the dele-
gates present, John Cufi' demanded a
count of the delegates and another vote.
He was voted down.
A warm discussion followed. The
Danbury delegates who voted solidly
against McPhelemy said that if_Mc-
l’helemy was declared the nominee,
Houlihan would not receive Danbury’s
support at the- polls. The argument
that Danbury furnishes 2,000 of the
2,500 votes in the district was used nn-
availingly. Thomas F. O’Rourke _of
Danbury, resigned from the Senatorial
committee and under the circumstances
Danbury refused to name a man for
the committee. The convention broke
up in disorder.
Senator Houlihan has twice repre-
sented the district and has also been in~
the House. He was the last chairman
of the Railroad committee and has re-
ceived the biggest majorities ever given
a Democrat in the district.

And They Skipped.
As a GAZETTE reporter was walking
through Orchard street about 9 o’clock
last evening, he heard the barking of a
dog, and at the same time saw five or
six young girls rush from across the.
street from in front of Miss Baird’s
school. All the girls appeared to be
much frightened, but one of the mem-
bers was heard to cry cut “Good Lord!
Only think of it! just because we were‘
watching them dance, some one turned
a big bull dog on us. It was darned
mean I think. Bet yer life I‘donlt go
in there again pretty quick.” It. may
not be known to the girls, but they
were trespassing and had the dog bitten
either of them they could "have blamed
no one but themselves. rEhis ought to
"be a warning to .the young loafers who
congregate on that street after dark.
V“Wh‘o Seek for a Sign.”
Scofield 82: Hoyt have just erected a
neat and pretty swinging sign, which is
attached to the electric light pole in
front of the Norwalk Club building, to
catch the delighted eyes of all the good
people as well as the “wicked and per.
verse generation that seek for a sign.”
It is hung after the ancient style of the
colonial hotel, and reflects credit upon
the artistic skill of the artisans who
built it. Nevertheless, the “sign” that
most effectually draws customers is an
Ettgctive and truthful adv. in the B.
Thought it an imposition.
At theWestport annual town~meeting it
was voted to give each of the-fire com- .
panics $50, as has usually been done.
Certain persons who live outside the
fire district opposed the proposition on
the ground that the companies, being
so far away from their property, could
not protect it, and they thought it was
an imposition to make them help pay
the sums named. The vote stood 113 to
61. The minority intend to appeal the
matter to the courts.

WANTS His LICENSE.
“Before Judge Shumway of the civil
side of the Superior Court yesterday
Gerald H. Beard’s appeal from the
County Commissioners was in progress
of trial. ' .
Beard is the proprietor of a saloon
located near the Congregational church
in East N orwalk. A remonstrance was
entered against his being granted a
license for this year and the County
Commissioners rendered a decision ad.
verse to him. Gerald appealed to the
June term of the court. There was
some delay in hearing the case and
Judge Thayer finally ordered it struck
from the list-.because of lack of sum-
cient ev1de‘nce to warrant its.being
continued. ,Gerald appealed from this
decision to the Superior Court which
ruled that the'evidence was sufficient
and ordered the case to be put back
on the court list for trial. Gerald is
represented by Attorneys Light and
Frost and the County Commissioners
by Attorney J. J. Walsh of N orwalk.”

Amusements.
nor'r’s ornaa HOUSE.
The unusually funny play “Charley’s
Aunt”. will be presented at Hoyt’s Opera
House, on Wednesday evening, Oct.
17th. There are, several things about
the farce contributing to make it one
of the most praiseworthy performances
that will be given here during the sea-
son. First, the piece itself is wonder-
fully amusing in situations, clear in
dialogue and skillful in development.
This is a basis fit to build on, and a
capable company employed in its cast
play it as though it was the real and
not the mimicked article. Another
thing that makes “Charley’s Aunt" su-
perior to plays of its class is its atmo-
sphere. The players are men and
women of good manners moving in a
high walk of life. The play is high-
toned, even if ridiculous, and the scene
of the play permits the use of gar-'
ments fit for men and women of good
breeding to walk and talk in.
It will be readily understood that
such a combination with a good play
cannot give anything but a firstoclass
performance. The company is under
the direction of Charles Frohman.
ls Seriously iii.
Gen. E. S Parker,supply clerk of the
N. Y. Police department, is seriously
ill at Fairfield. He is suffering from
an attack of nervous prostration, which
it is feared, may result fatally. The
General had a paralytic stroke a year
ago. He was on General Grant’s staff
during the war, and earned promotion
through bravery. He is an Indian,
being a lineal decendant of the famous
Indian chief, Red Jacket, and is 75
years old. .
