On Sunday, cooler,and on Monday clear and colder. Now to Business. We have had three years of silver panic and business depression. We have given three months to Bryan. Capital has been frightened, enterprise benumbed, industry paralyzed. Now that we have utterly annihilated Bryan and 16 to 1, let everybody pluck up con-rage and get to work. A season of prosperity richer than anyin the country’s hlstory lies before us. It should be entered upon with zeal and confidence, but in the sober, indus- trious spirit of a sensible people. It'is no time for crazy “booms” or specula- tive kite flying. It is a time for hard work and business skill and judgment and for push and enterprise in all legiti- mate fields. The American people are tired of hard times. They want good times. It will go ill with anybody who stands in the way of their enjoying them. CD———-_—_ Thank God i The Tribune of Wednesday had the following serious and reverent observa» tions which are as timely to-day and as applicable here in Norwalk as in New York and we therefore transfer them to the columns of the Gaznrrn with the added surmise that the article is from the gifted pen of Connecticut’s own and only Isaac M. Bromley. The article says: “Yesterday morning, at the edge of the greatest and most momentous polit; ical contest this country has ever seen or the world has thr known, The Tri-r hune congratulated its readers upon the Certainty of the triumph not merely of the fundamental Republican principles of Plotection and Sound Money, but of Common Honesty and of Law. Its conclusion was: ‘To-day the intelli- genceand conscience of the Nation will make themselves felt. And to-morrow this People will draw a long breath of relief iron the terrible suspence of three months and say with devoted ear- nestness, ‘Thank God!’ ” “To-incrrow” has come. To-day The Tribune, with all its readers, with all honest men and all patriots in this country and all men everywhere who believe in the reign of law and of jus- tice, of civil order, draws a long breath, and in concert with them all, says “Thank God!” Nothing else fitly ex- pressed the profound emotion, the deep and almost unutterable sense of grati- tude which pervades the whole couu‘ry this morning. Even the most undevout and sceptical unite in the fervent and whole-souled ejaculation. It is the only adequate expreszion of the general sense of relief. All yesterday,men who beheved from the very bottom of their hearts that there could be but one result,were hes- itating and shaky, and looklug into each other’s eyes for some positive as- surance of what they kept saying to themselvss Was certain. It was the timidity that grew out of an over- whelming sense at the last moment of the magnitude of the risk and the trem- eydcus stake. ' Men and women who had no idea that their neighbors had a lingering doubt as to to the issue, suddenly looked each other in the face and thought of the possibilities involved. And as they thought of them, they drew in‘ thelr breath and Stld “What 11—?" Well, it’s. all over now, and as The Tub-line said several days ago, “There is no ‘What ii.’ God reigns.” There’s no doubt now, either about the event or the deep feeling that pervaded the public mind 1n anticipation of it. The great crowds that surrounded the bul- letins last night in all parts of this town and made known their joy, with never a break in the general enthusiasm, were only an indication of the. feeling throughout the country. Everybody breathes easier and feels better this morning. And now this re. nains to be con- sidered. Do we want any more of this? Do we want to take any more chances with this-:sort of demagogue ? D.) we want to dismiss this man Bryan with the charitable judgement that he is honest, but misguided? He says he will continue the fight. Well, will he ? Shall 1' e ‘-t 1 Am? Isn’ lit about time to dismiss 1. i ci her considers?! ,ns :1. i say of this man and of his fellow- -con. spirators, the Altgelds, the ‘i‘illmans, the Joneses and all the rest, that they are just what they are, enemies of honesty, :of law, of order. of all that gppd men hold dear? There was great jun—n4 meaning in the sibilance With which Cicero dismissed his Catiline when he hissed his ‘ ‘Iste homo!” Let this fellow go with the hissing of a people’s scorn.” .THE NEXPPRESIDENT.
