Having, in the town meeting, made
this open attack upon the official con-
duct of Mr. Daskam, Mr. Byington
had the audacity to send, through the
mail, a postal card addressed. to “001

card is printed: ‘

DEAR FRIEND
“You know me all.-—~
A plain, blunt man
That love my friend.”
~Jullius Caesar.
, A. HOMER Brmcrou.
Mr. Maple’s strained effort at false
representation and impotent venom,
furnishes its own best exemplification.
“Audacity” is good, and “I thank thee;
Jew for teaching me that word.” It
comes with excellent grace from a man
once publicly expelled from his position
of teacher in a New York school upon
the charge of a monstrous offense, and
a man more recently expelled from the
Masonic Fraternity for outrageous
slander.
/It has been for a long series Of years,
a New Year’s habit of the editor of
the GAZETTE, to send by way of re.
membranes. to a long list of Old friends».
a postal card withsome familiar Shakes T
perian quotatioii‘. One such, as above,
was sent “Col.“ Daskam and family, as
it was to others in town, not dreaming
that our former (‘9) friend and school
fellow was nursing a wrath against us
for having championed an investiga-
tIJIl of two items only of the select.
man’s (not “Col.” Daskam’s) accounts.
Nor did we suppose a selectman of
Norwalk capable Of the ill breeding, of
taking and turning, what was designed
to be a purely private and personalcom-
pliment, to an old friend and his fami-
ly, over to a malignant enemy for him
toipgude lam citierywhere‘recogniZed

to determine which of these two, has
shown the greatest lack of decency, or
the. mostbrutality. Mr. Byington, can

above transaction, if these two worth-
ies, "Col.” Sam. Daskam, and B. W.
Maples, expelled school teacher and

Our Town’s Dlsgrace:
On several occasions recently, the
citizens of the Town of Norwalk
have been warned to meet at the “Town
House” for the transaction cf. public
business. A week ago yesterday a
town meeting was convened there and
a city meeting also, the letter adjourn-
ing until yesterday. The Selectmen
whose duty it is to care for the _town’s
property, had made no provision to
.have the several broken window panes
replaced or the defective window sashes
repaired so they could be closed at top
and bottom. , The dirt and filth of the
late town election still defiled the seats
and floors, and the place as a, whole,
was not as decent or comfortable as
scores of barns in the town, although
all'these defects could have been reme-
died for an outlay by the selectmen of
not exceeding ten dollars.
Yesterday, the city essayed to hold a
meeting at the Town House, to con-
sxder the important subject Of entering '
upon the Construction of a new reser-
voir. The window lights were broken,
sashes down from the top, and the
election dirt all there and not a spark
of fire in pretence of warming the
room. That citizens and tax-payers
felt themselves insulted by such‘condi-
t.ons, simply evinced becoming self-
1‘espect. The meeting of course was
adjourned for another two weeks.
The Town House is Old and badly
out of repair, as all know. But the
town’s finances are in no condition to
erect a new one now. Nor is it wise
that such a building as this town needs,
should be erected just at this time.
Another location is likely to be selected
' when the time comes for the erection of
a new Town Hall. Externally, the old
Town House is not unsightly. It is a
familiar picture to old and young
among our residents: In these days Of
renewed veneration for monuments of
the past Why not repair this venerable
structure. Leta new roof be put upon
its outside. lts windows be made so.
cure, its walls and floors repaired and
its old stifi' benches replaced by mov—
able seltees and suitable heaters, plat-
form and desk, be introduced. The
GAZETTE is assured that all this can be
accomplished for a sum not exceeding
l’Wenty-five hundred dollars. If this
be so, should it not in view of all con—
ditions, be done at Once; Then, when
it be accomplished, let. the people see
to it that Selectmen are elected who
will have some little care of the public
property, and a decent regard for the
comfort, health and lives of the people
called to assemble there.

HIS...DlshonestJnterpretatlon.
Mr. Byington, of the GAZETrE, ill
town meeting, introduced a resolution
raising a committee to investigate 54a
portion of the town accounts. He
meant it as an attack on Mr. Daskam.
Having, in the town meeting, made
this open attack upon the Official con-
duct of Mr. Daskam, etc—Hour.
The GAZETTE denies the disreputable
Hour’s right to give its own “unprin-
cipled and mischevious interpretation,”
(to use the Hour’s own phrase.) as to
what Mr. Byington “macaw.” That
resolution speaks for itself. It pro-
posed not to investigate Mr. Daskam,
but the selectmcn’s two accounts, cov-
ering the highways and the poor. It
had reference to all three of our se-
lectmen and no honest public Official
should object. Indeed, since the
town meeting, the GAZETTE has
been informed that both the other
Selectmen earnestly desire that
such investigation should be had.
Why shouldfl“Col.” Daskam object? DO
the cashiers of our banks take it use
personal affront that their accounts are
examined by the Directors ? If “Col.”
Daskam thinks his situation is so des-
perate as to require such a vindication,
from such‘a discredited and disgraced
source, it will only serve to convince
the public that a much more extensive
and thorough investigation of all of
the'Selectmen’s account-s should be at
once instituted. Let on the light.
-._
What “He” Meant.
It is suggested that the reason Mr.
Maples was so desirous to have the
City meeting adjourned for two weeks
was that he might get the second print-
mittee raised upon the water question.
He is very desirous, it is said, of print‘
ing it this time in_ pamphlet form,
instead of in his disreputable, paper
a second time. , A more creditable
theory is that Mr. Maples is trying to
show his gratitude to“Col.”Daskam for
givinghim $500 of the town’s money
for the one week’s school teaching, to
which he never was appointed. Of
course, he is to get the printing of the
annual Town Report, whenever that is
prepared, and all the incidental adver-
tising, within the gift of “Col.”Daskam,
while the GAZETTE is to be punished,
by a withholding of even the crumbs
falling from our Master’s table, for its
“audacity. "
"So let thefcandld tongue lick absurdipomp,
And crook ihe pregnant hinges of the knee,
Where thrift may follow fawning.”
_-,- _
Letthé called Jade Wlnce.
'When Mr. Byington attributed to
Governor Miner, after his death, words
that he never spoke, he was as truthful
as he is in attributing to O. S. Ferry
language which he never used.~l:iour.
The GAZETTE quoted the language
of Governor Minor, in which he de-
nounced the Hour edit-or as a villian, in
its somewhat lengthy narrative .f the
life and times of B. W. Maples, during
the Governor’s life time and it had the
Governor’s endorsement as being cor-
rect, and it is only long since his death
that Maples has dared to question its
accuracy. But as Mr. Maples was him-
self present in the state convention and
sat out the Governor’s denunciation,
will he kindly publish in his disreputa-
ble Hour, the language which he thinks
the Governor did use. This would be
a contributiOn indeed, to our local
literature.

‘ - Again Adjourned. _ Z
About fifty citizens wended their
way to the Town House. yesterday af-
ternoon to attend the adjourned special
city meeting called for the purpose of
considering a new water supply. When
they arrived inside of the “Selecrmen’s
Disgrace," they found the window
panes out window sashes down and
worst of all, no fire. With hat on and
coat collar turned up about his ears,
Mayor Keeler‘faced his freezing fellow
citizens and called. them to order.
After City Clerk Lockwood had read
the call, . Mr. B. W. Maples was recog.
ni-zed. He stated that it was mid-win-
ter and the Town House was in no con-
having been made to light a fire, and
he therefore moved that the meeting
adjourn to Friday evening, January
18th, at 7:30 o’clock, and that the City
Clerk takethe necessary means to see
that a fire was started and the house
warm, which motion was adopted after
Mr. Lockwood had stated that he was
not aware that it was part of the City
Clerk’s duties to make a fire in the
Town House.
Prior to the putting of the question
several citizens condemned, in forcible
language, the disgraceful condition of
the town’s property.

Burglar-s Vii-sit that Town, And
Blow Tlte'front Out Of The
Post Office Building:
The Safe ln Guyer-‘s Hardware Store
Also Cracked. '
Burglars visited Westport last night
and after gaining an entrance into the
hardware store Of Capt. W. S. Guyer,
blew open the. safe and abstracted
about 8500. They then rifled the show-
case of revolvers, pocket knives and
razors. ,
Alter taking all‘they wanted in Guy-
er’s store they visited the post-office
and burstin the front-door. Here
they proceeded to take off the combina-
tion and drill a hole. in. the safe door
which they-filled with? powder and
lighted the fuse. When the explosion
came the old safe bulged. out but re-
fused to open. While the charge failed
to burst the safe it did, however, blow
out the entire front of the building.
Several residents of Westport 'who
came up from New :York, yesterday
morning, on the train that reaches
South Norwalk at 11 15 o'clock, noticed"
two men sitting together in one of the
cars. After the” train left South Nor-
walk they separated, one going to, an.
other part of the car. When Sauga-
tuck was reached they alighted and
took the horse cars to -'.~ estport, where
they spent the day looking about the
town. Later in the evening they were
joined by three other men and the five
suddenly appeared before the aston-
ished eyes of night patrolman “Billy”
Murphy, the only member of Westport’s
police force, with drawn- revolvers.
Murphy at once surrendered and they
marched . him up the street and left one
of their number to guard him.
The four remaining-members of the
gang then visited the Office of D. P.
McKenna, the stone-cutter. Here they
found “Low” Baker, a town character,
asleep on-the floor. One of the men
tapped him on the head and woke him
up but» did not Ofier to harm him. The
as e Of McKenna’s was open and the
burglars took away a small box con-
taining personal papers, which was
afterwards found under a beer keg in
front of the saloon of Charles La CrOix.
After leaving McKcnna’s the gang
went to Guyer’s store and blew open
the safe. Mr. Guyer is the agent for
the Adams Eipress company and his
store is also the headquarters 'Of‘ Capt.
Allen who runs the market boat be-
tween Westport and New York and
with the $500 secured by the burglars
wereanumber of checks for produce
sent to New York by the farmers, which
Capt. Allen had collected and endorsed
and left at the store for the shippers.
After failing to open the post office
safe the burglars departed and were
seen walking towards Saugatuck be-
tween 4 and 5 o’clock this morning,
since which time they have diSappeared
entirely. ~ _
One of the strangest things connect-
ed with the. entire affair, was. that
Charles LaCroix and his-family and an
employs at the salocn saw the burglars
enter Guyer’sand: drill the safe, light
the fuse and blow the safe open. They
also saw them smash in the‘positroflice'
goor and heard the explosion "there,
ut made no effort to alarm the toWn or
call Deputy Sheriff Driscoll, who lives
about 100 feet from the rear of La
Croix’s house, it is said. _
The only description given of the en-
tire-party is of one man who is said to
have been fully six feet in height and
wearing a black moustache. .

NORWALK OPERA “HOUSE.
The Philadelphia Item thus speaks
of Prof. Bristol’s horses, who will ap-
pear in the Norwalk Opera House two
nights, commencing Friday evening,
January 11th.
“Professor Bristol and his thirty
equine pets drew a large house to the
People’s Theatre last night. The first
part of the entertainmentwas devoted
to playing school, as children would as
say. D nver, a diminutive, but re-
markaby clever mule, With a sleek,
well condition appearance, acted as
monitor, and assisted the professor
off and on with his overcoat. Sultan, a
mottled horse, surprised the audience
by his mathematical abilities. A>num~
ber of problems were given by the au-
' dience, on being invited to do so by
the Professor, and Sultan made the
proper number of scratches in the saw-
dust.
norT’s OPERA HOUSE.
Mora and her company complete a
week’s engagement at Hoyt’s Opera
_House, to-night. The play to be pre-
sented is “Rhoda,” said to be the equal
if not better than any of many plays so
far given. The house willno doubt be
crowded and twere well that you secure
your seats early. Last night’s presen-
tation of a ”Pretty Holden” gave. un-
iversal satisfaction and pleasure.
Those who have seen Mora will surely
be present to-night, and those Who
have not should avail themselves of
the opportunity by so doiug, tO-night.
