Lincoln and Bryal‘n - .

In all the history of our political
conflicts MrQBryan is the only Presi-I
dential candidate who has ever attempti
ed to appeal to the lower class preju-
dices in public speeches to promote his I,
election, and it need not be said that'
such utterances must bring the candi-
date who utters them into contempt
with all intelligent and considerate
Americans,» regardless of their property
condition or political faith.

Here is what Abraham Lincoln said
in discussing the same question before.
the people of the country: ' A ‘

“Property is the fruit of labor. Prop-
erty is desirable, is a positive good in
the world. That some should be rich
showa that otners may become rich,
and hence‘is‘encouragement to indus-
try and enterprise. Let no man who is
homeless pull down the house of an-
other, but let him work diligently and
build one for himself, thus, by example,
assuring that his own shall be safe
from Violence when it is built.”

This was the utterance of one of the
“plain peoi l »,” or one of the “common
people,” of whom Mr. Bryan so fre-
quently speaks. Mr. Lincoln was born
close to mother earth. and was ever in
touch with the common people of the
land. 4 He knew that they honored
themselves just as they honored in-
tegrity and manliness in all the varied
relations of life, and he illustrated the
highest standard of American citizen-
ship that has its growth in the people
themselves, regardless of birth or for-
tune. ,

Contrast the manlv and patriotic
utterance of Abraham Lincoln with the
démagogic vaporings of 'William .1,-
Bryan in his daily appeals to the preju "
dices of the p ior and oppressed, with-
out oflzring a single honest measure of!
relief! The words of Abraham Lincoln:
will sink deep into the hearts of every
patriotic. citizen, while the clap-trap
utterances of Mr. Bryan will be de-
spised even by the class to which they:
are addressed.

Now for Victory.

Mr. Porter, editor of the 'Hartford
Post was turned down in his candidacy
fer the Governorship, but this is the
manly and patriotic way he bears his
defeat. There is surely}: future for
such an undaunted work‘er:

“The Republicans of Connecticut-
h'ave nominated their state ticket.
What remains to be done now is to
elect it, not only by a good majority

There should be, there must b ‘, no
factiOnalism or “back talk.” The party
must press on unitedly to the phenome-
nal success that is within its grasp.

Just think what the. result means to
Connecticut. It is a state where sound
money stands for much. It has many
financial institutions and thousands of
thrifty people with savings. 'For the
past three years a great blight has been
on us. Business has been stagnant and
the working people have sifi‘ered-are
still suffering.

Even gigantic financial institutions
have been cramped, money has been

pervading the community has prevent-
ed capital launching out into the" new
enterprises which ordinarily character-
ize New England. If any state in» the
union should‘score a brilliant Republi-
can success Iit is Connecticut in this
year of 1806 ” >

Genealogical and Historical.

If there is any value in trying to
make the history both local and per
soda} of the country, the present with
its broad interests should be utiliz 3d.

About two years ago the Mail and
Express, (‘Iew York) s‘arted a “Geneo-
logical and Historical Department,”
edited by Mrs. Milton Haxtun. It

grown beyond the most sanguine ex-

pectations of those concerned. As well .

as the department, there is every week
in the‘ Saturday issue of that paper a
historical article by Mrs. Haxtun.

Of late these have been devoted to
the ‘signers of the compact on the May;
flower, 1620. They are taken in the
order of their signing, and soon Stephen
Hopkins -_will be before the public. It
is the editor‘s hope to prove that John

 

Stephen, andIto that end she asks the '

aid of every one of this blood, male or
female, to prev; her position.
There must be many records that

have not yet been reached, perhaps for

want of thought, or from a careless dis"-

regard of the subject. This is the op-*

portunity, and it a sense of duty can be
inpressed upon people living in Nor-
Walk and vicinity, much good may be
the outcome. This is a, matter of com-
mon interest, the giving is not all on
one side, ’and if the recOrds are sent to
the Gaznrru or Mail and Express, there.
is a reasonable expectation of great,
perhaps unexpected results. A

When the article is published it would
-be very little trouble for the Hopkins
family to pass it into the various con-
nections they are cognizant of, and so
perhaps establish a point which will
make importanthistory.

Then too, Brewster records are very
desirable, embracing as they - do, all
sections of Connecticut, and connecting
with the descent of those who as yet
have no authentic knowledge that they
are entitled to 'membership‘in most if
not all cf those patriotic families.

Will. not any Norwalk or ( that family
with old and perhaps long forgotten
documents of “ye old in time,” stored
in out of the way places, look all ‘such
ancient papers over, to the end that im-
portant and invaluable ancient histori-
cal 'and biographical facts may be

brought to light and authenticated, as

undoubtedly much such matter could be.

AN ENTHUSIAST.

Mr. L. Hayden of Wallonia, Ky., is en-
thusiastic in his praise of Chamberlain’s
Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy. He
says he has used it in his family for

 

 

troubles. The 25 and 50 cent sizes for sale

MR. ASTOR AND HIS PAPER.

It Cost: Money; But Is Cheaper than a ‘

IYacht,_and More Fun.

The World’s, London correspondent,
in a recent letter on William Waldorf
Astor and his publications, has 3tht
following:

The Gazette, as well as the Magazine, ,

evidently have coat Mr. Astor apretty
sum above the receipts, but he said to a
friend last year: ' . .
“Even if they show -a deficit of-$100,-
000 per- annum they 'cos‘tgme less than tc
keep a steam yacht in] cbmmission and
they give me more pleasure than a steam
yacht could.” ‘ . _ _
Mr. Astor occasionally‘contributes ar
article ’over his own. signature to tht
Magazine, almost always of a mystical

character, and- .his editors follow his.

embankment.

He is at frequent intervals reported it
the weekly journals as afiianced to Lady
Randolph Churchill or some other Lon
don lady of title, but his friends say he

devotedly cherishes the memory ole

his beautiful wife. dead now nearly 2
year.

The Pall Mall Gazette’s large circular
tion is significant of what success 2
daily journal, edited on New York new:
lines, but with due regard to the pro
prieties of English life and to English
prejudice, would achieve in London. Ir;
spite of its cynicism, its bitter editorai
attitude toward the rest of the world, i1
quickly seizes many great points 01
neWs and is so constantly in this respec1
in advance of its slow and stupid Lon-
don contemporaries that no Londoner i:
sure he ‘ knows what has happened 01

the Pall Mall Gazette.

QUEER EVENTS OF ONE DAY.

The Strange Things That Are Happenin;
Every Day. ,

The curious things do not happen onct
in a while; they happen every day. A
summary of the strange events of a. sin
gle day that are chronicled in the news
papers would make a table of contents
that would put to the blush any-sensor
tional novel ever issued. Here are
just a. few that appeared in one day this
week:

A man who lived six weeks with a
broken neck; a man who left his for-
tune in prize packages for his heirs; a
protest against wasting good whisky in
christening the mr ship Kentucky; a
tramp in full dress found stealing a ride

' in a freight train; a man, lovesick for

fourteen years, sent to the madhouse;
death of a. tram 9 worth $100,000; thief
in police uniform robs people in Broad-
way; two sexagenarians carry their love
affairs to court; a. would be, Chinese
bridge jumper tangled in his pigtail and

placed tub of water saves a woman
from burning to ' death; rival lovers
fatally wound one another; a deathbed
confession tells of the lynching of an in-
noeent man; trolley cars collide on the
porch of a house, and-a woman in a re-
vival meeting tells of casting $50,000in

. jewels upon her bureau and one of the
congregation steals them. '
And there are others! «£337;
A few years ago nearly all newspapers
published, at this season, recipes for summer
complaints. Now such items,are seldom
met with. 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 is in general use
everywhere they have quit publishing these
recipes. No one havin ' a, bottle of this
remedy in the house nee fear an‘ attack of
bowel com laint. It can always bedep'ended
