There is no room for the free silver heresy in the Green Mountain State. Her sturdy sons were the first to speak after the holding of the national cont ventions and yesterday they rolled up amajority for the Republican candi- dates and sound money that will stag- ger the apostles ofi‘repudiation when they come to realize the real size and significance of it. The day Was fine, and there was no disturbing local issues to demoralize the party vote, and-alto- gather it Was a square, stand-up fight between Republicans and Democrats and the principles and the policies that they stand for in this campaign. The result is a Republicau‘majority various- ly estimated at from 15,000 to 20,000 votes in excess of the average for the past sixteen years. This victory for sound money and good government is a most glorious one; the defeat of sil- verism most crushing and humiliating. Vermont is always safely Republican. This year it is overwhelmingly so. A variety (-f causes contributed to this re- sult, but chief among them were the steady growth of Republican sentiment, a widespread disgust with the Chicago 'monstrosity that kept hundreds of Democrats away fiom the polls, and an unusual determination among the Re- publican leaders to get out a full vote ‘ in order to administer a fitting rebuke to Bryanism and thus aid the general movement for sound money. This sweeping Vermont victory ought , to encourage Chairman'Hanna and' his associates to look iorward with confi- dence to the carrying of thirty-two .StateZ'sijfor McKinley and Hobart in - Populism and repudiation should not be permitted to, die out. They should be annihilated .(by political force. A New Departure in Shipbuilding. The roller ship designed by M. Ernest Brzin, which has just been launched on the Seine, suggests the idea that we are on the eve of a new era in the business of shipbuilding and ' that the much-strived for five-day pas- sage between New York and Southamp- ton is by no means the limit of the pos- sibilities which we may shortly look forward to. The chief difficulty which marine ar- chitects have had to contend with in in- creasing the speed of new types of ves- sels has been in overcoming the resist- ance due to skin friction—that is, the hold which the water retains on the” 'ship’s hull as it passes through it. Mr. Bazin has utilized this resistance as a means of increasing the speed of ‘ his new vessel. The hollow disks which support the body of his ship are re- volved at the same time that they are being thrust through the water by the screw propeller; in this way they act as wheels as well as floats. Many attempts have been made from time to time to build ships that would go over the water instead of through it, but none of them attained any cor. sid- erable degree of success. Not long ago an invention called a water 1000- motive was patented at Washington by an American named Pond; his idea was to revolve an endless chain of hollow pontoons over and under the body of his vessel. The pontoons were. fitted with a small blade along one edge, and as they revolved the framework inside moved swiftly along. The inventor' estimated that its speed would be equal to that of land locomotives, but up to the present time it has not.- passed beyond the model stage. Mr. Bazin expects that a ship built after his model'on the same scale as the present Atlantic liners, should make at least thirty-five miles an hour. If the principle of his novel craft proves suc- cessful a host of new-tangled inven- tions on similar lines will quickly follow; first ideas will speedily be improved on, and it'may be only a short time ,before our present ocean greyhounds are relegated to the cold limbo where the horse cars rest. , vsnnonr SP‘EAKS. The Republican Plurality May Reach 40,- ' 000. Vermont has gone Republican this time with a vengeance. It is certain. that the plurality for Joshua Grout, the candidate for Governor, will be 35,000, and if the percentage of Republican gain keeps up in the towns, which are .yet to be heard from, the Republican candidate will probably be 40, 000 ahead of his Democratic opponent, Dr. J. Henry Jackson. The whole Repub lican State ticket is elected, and bpth Congressman H. Henry Powers of Morristo am and Wil- liam G. Grout, a brother of the success- ful candidate for Governor, are re- turned to Washington. - Although it is impossible at this time to tell definitely about the State Legis- lature, the indications are that the Sen- ate will be almost if not quite unan- imously - Republican, and that ‘ the Democratic members in ’ the lower branch will be indeed few. “The Burglar.” In the play. “l‘he Burglar,” therelis I touch of nature so irresistible that no audience can fail to recognize. The moment little Editha declares her fear- lessuess the burglar ‘ is in her power. Her innocent appeal in behalf of her stepfather, her willingness to have the intruder take everything belonging to herself providing no one else is victim- ized and other evidences of uncommon solicitude, all appeal to the finer senti- ment of theatre patrons. Opera House Thursday, September 2d. .0 Base Ball. The Norwalk and Danbury glass j ug- g'ers will play ball at Norwalk Park to- morrow afternoon. The local team will probably has up as follows: Burdell, c; Simone, p; Laydeu, 1 b; Sullivan, 2b; E. Hogan, 3. 6.; Pennington, 3. b.; James Creagh, r. 1.; Johnson, 0. L; Hall, 1. f.;Jennings, substitute. It is expected that the game will be a lively one. . . Unser Max. James A. Reilly gave a very clever performance of “Unser Max,” at the Opera House, last evening. His sup- port was very poor with the exception of Ed. McHugh as Michael Slaughterty, who, with the extra fine orchestra, gave zest to the entertainment. Mr.‘ Reilly sang very sweetly and received seyera’l 9.1190539. from the small but ap- preciative audience. Danliury Riders Suspended. George Berry, .Wilbur Townsend, Er- nest Giddihgs and Richard Hoyt, four Danburyriders, yesterday morning re- ceived word from G. D. Gideon; chair- man of the L. A. W. Racing board, that they have been suspended from all track racing for 60 days from Aug. 28, for competing in unsanctioned races. -O->— New Corporation. Messrs. J. S urges Randall, D. Minor Randall and Charles D. Burns have united in the formation of what is to be known as the East Norwalk Lumber company, with a capital stock of $12,- 000, divided into 120 shares.

Publishers have learned that there is nothing quite as good as Chamber- lain’ s Colic, Cholera. and Diarrhoea Remedy . for these diseases and as it 19 in general use everywhere they have quit publishing these recipes. No one haviu a. bottle Of this remedy' in the house nee fear an attack of bowel com laiut. It can always be depended Epon and is pleasant and safe. For“ sale by P Weed, Draggist.
