The discrimination against United States silver coins by the people of Canada is not surprising in view cf the agitation for free coinage at 16 to 1. They are evidently determined to take not even the slightest risk of being “stuck” with a lot \of dollars which would be depreciated in the event of a political success for the silverites. The discount of twenty per cent. which our northern neighbors have im- posed is unnecessarily high, but it is a purely arbitrary ruling and designed to force back the coins across the border without delay. i That they have fixed a similar dis? count on fifty cent and twenty-five cent pieces is an indication that there is a plentitude of Canadian subsidiary silver coins in circulation and they would like to be rid of ours. In the discrediting of our legal tender silver dollars at this time by the Cana- dian banks which keep their entire reserves in United States gold coins there is food for reflection. It is un- necessary to point the moral. People Who Will Not Vote for Bryan. Those who liv» by wages received for their daily labor. They dori’t want a 53-c ent dollar. The more the do 1111' is worth the better they like it. The men who live on fiXed salaries, teachers. clerks, cflicials, professional ”men and the 1.31. They don’t want to pay twice as much for what they tuy, while their salaries remain the same. All those who are proud of their country and want to save its honcr its credit from from disgrace and degradation. By all of course we mean all of these citizens who are not deluded fools, or incurable cranks. and are not lost in ignorance. But even when the whole number of such unfortunates is allowed for, there will still remain the vast majority of the pe0ple of this country. There may be men who-perfer the half to the whole. Drunken men and lunar tics will Sometimes turn their money. But sane people perfer to get all they can for their dollars. Hence they pre- fer gold to silver. The truth is, Bryan could not lead to the polls a force of voters bigger than Coxey’s famous army of tramps true when he got to Washington, if human society were not always burdened with a load of stupidity put upon it by Divine Providence, we suppose, to keep its muscles trained by the exertion of carrying the dead weight. The more the maple know of Bryan and his doctrines the less they will want him and them. He can’t stand up against the popular common sense. new CANAAN. .A largely attended and .very enthu- siastic meeting of the New Canaan His- torical Society was held in that town, at the residence of Albert S. Comstock Esq , on Thursday evening. Before this meeting was read on that bcoasion, from the pen of Dr. C.' R. Abbott of Brooklyn, 11 paper descriptive of the mil- itary service of Capt. Stephen Bette of the Continental Army. Dr. Abbott’s treatment of the subject was clear and1 interesting and his paper is a valuable contribution to New Canaan annals. The Historical Society at that meet- ing also discussed the prepriety' of the "reestablishing of several old time New Canaan locality designations, and ameng them those of New Canaan, Bartlelt, Winnipauk , and Haynes’ 4 ridges. - The latter height seems to have been the site of New Canaan’s cradle. “Mr. William Haynes” a distinguished ' Seventeenth Century settler of Nor- walk, was awarded wide acreage at the charming spot, and his name has from ‘ early Canaan times stood connected with'it. His daughter Elizabeth, was the mother of perhaps all,the New Ca- naan Hantords andhis daughter Isabel ' an anceslress of families of fame. ' dnced. Over $6,000 00 has been ex- .—f Haynes" ridge has been and! is)’ the seat of learning, refinement and wealth, Norwalk. It would seem, when every- thing is taken into consideration, that its most appropriate name is the one that the fathers with eminent propriety bestowed upon it, and the desire to re- turn to it, to be a loyal and laudable prompting. Among the visitors at Thursday even- ing ’s meeting were Mrs. Anna Arnoux Haxtnn, of the Mail and Express, and Mr. and Mrs. Alexander of “Sension city. Mr. and Mrs. Cometock made their visitors entirely at home. .. Senator lones’s‘ Swim. Dr. L. P. Jones of Greenwich, for- merly state senator, had a: narrow es- cape Friday. 'He had been at Cos Cob and returning his pair of horses became frightened and ran away. As they came upon the bridge over the Mianus River the carriage. crashed into the side rail of the bridge breaking it, and low, where there was twelve feet of wa- ter. "The carriage turned completely over and Dr. Jonés with his carriage boy in it were thrown into the stream underneath 'it. The doctor released himself, however, and clutching‘the boy swam' ashore with him. ' There were several people who saw the acci- dent and rushed to the place just as the doctor landed. The horses ran on across the bridge. oo— The Merry World. Manager Mitchell will present to ' his patrons, at the Opera House to night, the New Casino success, “"he Merry World. ” The stage has been enlarged during the past week and to-night the company will discard all the old house scenery and use the handsome scenes carried by them in 'a special car. embraces three'complete sets of the most elaborate transformation sceneiy, the 'setting for the last act being one of the most gorgeous effects ever prO' pended for new scenery, costumes, electrical effects and properties item which it can —be seen that “The Merry World,” as it will be presented to-night,‘ is one of the largest and most expensive- lively tqulpped attractions on the road. .0. Another Honest Democrat. , Ex-Lieutenant Gov. William F- Sheehan, the representative of the State of New York in the Democratic National Committee, announces that he is opposed to the revolutionary doctrines of the Chicago platform, and warns the delegates to the Bufi'alo Con- vention, that'he will resign his ofli‘ce if they indorse the popocratic ticket with all that it represents Compliment for Hill. The Republicans of the Fourth dis- tr1ct have done well in rent-urinating Hon. E. J. Hill for congrr ssman.‘ Dur- ing his two years in the House he has .been an indeiatigable worker. He is a sound Republican and can be‘depended upon to support Major McKinley if that gentleman is elected. We have no doubt of Mr. Hill’s election. There was no opposition to him, which shows his popularity.—-Ansonia Sentinel. ’. 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 15 in general use everywhere they have quit publishing these recipes. No one having a. bottle of this remedy in the house need fear an attack of bowel complaint. It can always be depended upon and 1s pleasant and safe. For sale by E.
