The Outlook.
The-fact that the senators elected in
the odd-numbered districts will participate
in the election of a United States senator,
gives additional importance to the elec-
tion next week. Of the twelve senators
holding over five are Republicans and
seven Democrats. It will be necessary,
therefore. for the Republicans to carry
eight of the twelve districts in order to
have a majority in the next senate. The
Democrats hope to carry five of the dis-
tricts, which, with the aid of the Lt.-gov-
ernor’s vote. would give them control of
the senate. There seems to be little ground
for their hopes. however, for. with proper
management the Republicans cannot fail
to hold their own. The New London
Day, basing its estimates on the vote of
the districts in 1881, figures out that the
Third, Ninth, Eleventh, Thirteenth, Sev-
enteenth and Twenty-first districts are
pretty sure to be Republican, which will
give the Republicans, with those holding
over, eleven senators. The Democrats
count surely on the Fifteenth and Nine-
teenth districts, making their total. with
those who hold over, nine. In the doubt~
ful districts the chances favor the Demo-
crats in the First and Fifth, and the Re
pubiicans in the Seventeenth, Thirteenth,
and Twenty-third. This appears to be
a fair statement of the situation. In
all the districts which are to elect,
the Republicans have placed their strong-
est candidates in the field— men who will
bring to their support not only the entire
strenght of the party, but additional
strength from the opposition. With this
statement before them. voters will recog-
nize the importance of their ballot.
Sheriff Charles H. Crosby.
1n the general election of 1880 Charles
11. Crosby, of Danbury, was elected sher-
iii of Fairfield county by a vote of 12,089
against 11,773. It was the first time for
at least fifteen years that aRepubllcan
sheriff had been elected in this county,
and it was a significant tribute to the per
sonal popularity and the mascot public
confidence in Mr. Cresby. That senti-
ment can now still further justify itself
by pointing to three years of faithful and
honorable service in the most responsible
and important public office in the county.
Mr. Crosby’s record is so good that his
political opponents have not and can not
call it in question. With all their spec-
ious professions of reform and pretentious
solicitudc for the public interest, they
come up to this election proposing to turn
outs tried and true official and put in a
new and inexperienced man simply and
solely on the plea of party advantage.
That plea has lost its force with many think
ing people, as regards thess purely local
offices, and now-ardays local nominations
which appeal only to party spirit are liable
to get left. We expect to record the re-
election of Sheriff Crosby by a majority
much greater than that which he had
three years ago in this county—Stamford
Advocate.
An Unparalleled Greed for Office.
The Democratic nominee for senator in
this district, presents the extraordinary
spectacle of a man already enjoying the
honors and emoluments of the very best
office in the state without an exception.
craving still another office and willing to
pocket the salaries of both. Any self-
respccting man would be satisfied with
one political office at a time, it would
seem, but not so Mr. Hyatt. There ap-
pears no limit to his “lost for office.”
He now holds the offices of president,
superintendent and general manager of
the horse railway, vice-president of a
national bank, and only last week
emerged from a disastrous struggle to
make himself president of the Danbnry
and Norwalk Railroad Co. But the hold-
ing of all the above offices, numerous as
they are, is in no sense so indecent as to
engage in this struggle to get the posi-
tions and pay of two State oflices at the
same time.
The honest and fair-minded voters of
this district, will not fail to set the seal of
disapprobation of such an amusing greed
for public office.
was
His Opposition to Parallel.
We do not make so much account of
Mr. Hyatt's welkknown opposition to the
Parellel railroad as many of his own Dem-
ocratic friends seem disposed to do. We
think his opposition has a fair and reason-
able business foundation. His largest
property interest lies in the conveyance
of passengers to and from the Consolida-
ted railroad trains by the horse railway of
which he claims to be chief owner.
Should another railroad be built this busi-
ness would be seriously injured if not
essentially ruined. He should be defeated
as State Senator, because he is already
State Bank Commissioner, and no one
man should draw two salaries from the
public treasury, at one and the same time,
We oppose him because we believe he de-
serted the Republican party from no
better motive than to get office from the
Democrats. We oppose him because we
know him to be a political trickster,aself
seeking intriguer, and a corrupter of our
local politics. He should be defeated and
Tallmadge Baker elected. because the latter
gentleman is about everything the former
person is not.
W
Fire at Silver Mine.
The grist,eider and saw mill of W. W.
Austin of Silver Mine, were totally con
sumed by fire, Sunday evening, together
with a new carriage and a considerable
amount of timber. The fire is suspected
to have been of incendiary origin. The
borough fire bell sounded the alarm and
the fire hays got out their apparatus and
ran as far as the head of Main street. The
flames lit up the heavens far around and
at the bridge looked as if it was near
\Vinnipauk. Mr. Austin’s loss is estimated
- to be not far from three thousand dollars.
The mill was insured for $1,000 by Mr.
O. E. Wilson, $500 in the Hanover of
New York, and $500 in the Orient of
Hart ford.
Thanks are due to Mr. I“. Buttery of
Silver Minn, for information concerning
the fire.

nominee, far surpasses him—Standard.

WILLIAM ItANDEI. SMITH.
Although the long illness of‘ Mr. Smith
had recently assumed alarming aspects,thc
announcement of hisdeatlnwhich occurrr (1
early Saturday morning, was received
withapainful surprise. Mr. Smith was
in many respects a remarkable man. He
first cutnc to Norwalk and was engaged
in the constructing engineering service of
the Danbury and Norwalk railroad. Some
time after that work was completed. he
planned and built the beautiful home on
West avcnuc,whcre he has so long lived
and where he died. 0f scholarly tastes
and acquircments. he always exhibited an
earnestness of application and mental
intensity in whatever engaged his atten
tion. To this maybe traced, in a great
degree, the exhausting strain upon his
nervous forces which during his illness
so baffled all efforts for his restoration
and which has finally worn out. his frail
life, and consigned him in the meridian
of his days and usefulness, to the rest and
peace of the grave.
After relinquishing the profession of
civil engineer, he studied and engaged in
the practice of the law. He had a natural
taste and genius for architecture and
planned many houses and bridges. His
own and Treasurer Miller‘s residence are
among those planned by him that we now
recall. As a lawyer,as in everything else,
he rapidly advanced to the front. By
instinct he never could remain content
in any second place, and his abilities
were always a guarantee of success.
During the excitement attending the draft
riots in New York, he was elected a lien-
tenant in our own local home gu .rd. He
at once mastered the manual of arms and
rose to be general of State militia. As a
lawyer he was zealous and indefatigable.
and was conceded to be among the leading
members of the Fairflcld County bar.
His most noted case in court Was perhaps
the Bucholtz murder trial, which he
espoused without fee or reward, and he
managed its difficulties with such ,con-
summatc tact and ability, that the life of
the accused was saved.
As a citizen, he was upright and enter
prising; as a neighbor, genial, considerate
and a social favorite; as a friend, as true
aavthe stars in their courses.
He has married two daughters of the
late General Rodgers of Tennessee, the
last wife surviving, as do three children
the offspring of the first wife. To them,
his death is an irreparable loss, and in this
hour of their unuttcrablc bereavement all
hearts will turn in the tenderest sympathy
and commiseration.
His funeral services will be conducted
by Rev. Mr. Everest to day, and his re-
mains buried at Greenwood tc-morrow.

SOPHIA IIUTcnIsz ALLEN
Died Sunday, October 2821i, in the
seventicth your of her age. She Was the
widow of the late Capt. Wm. Allen. and
was bern'in St. Andrews, N. 13., lcmth-
ing to South Norwalk upon her marriage,
some fifty years ago. She was the.
mother of Colonel Henry Allen, Mrs.
George Colycr, and Mrs. A. ll. Byiugton,
and for half a century and more was a
member of St. Paul's Episcopal church.
Her home during her later life has been
with her daughter last named. l-ler pure
spirit, quiet courtesy,and generous, genial
nature made her a favorite with all
who knew her. But it was among her
children and grandchildren that her deep
affection and unselfish nature had its
brightest portrayal. For years she has
resisted the steady progress of her disease
with a power of will that was a marvel to
all familiar with her quiet submissive
spirit. A few hours before the rising of
Sunday ’s sun, she “fell asleep” as peace-
fully and painlessly as a babe in its
slumbcrs. The beauty of her life and the
serenity of her death, proved the power
of her faith in a Redeemcr’s sustaining
love. And with the just made perfect
she has entered into a heavenly rest.

a most tame and harmonious affair. Mr.

No better “cabinet” than this can ii
found in the management of any road in
the state.
Supt. Saudifrolh madca detailed and
very satisfactory report of the business
and condition of the road. Its gross
earnings have been $16,000 greater the
past year than the year previous, but the
Bethel accident, which cost the company
nearly ten thousand dollars, the repair
and rebuilding of bridges, and the build-
ing of new and repsiringiof old cars, made
necessary by the large increase of busi
ness of the road, had increased the ex-
penses to such an unusual degree that the
recent passing of the semiannual divi-
dend was shown to be an act of the
strictest business wisdom. The future
prospects of the road were deemed very
encouraging, and the wish was general
that it should be managed with the
strictest economy, and it is known that
such will be the wish and earnest effort
of the new directors. The report is now
in the hands of Secretary Williams who
will at once have it printed in pamphlet
form, and copies sent to each stockholder.
It is anticipated that the Iron Steam
boat company will withdraw their boat
in the near future, because of their
passenger business not being sufficiently
remunerative. If so, an equally safe but
more rapid and less expensive boat will
be put upon the route.

vi account for the extra $7,800 in the labor
account. With the extra service we have over
sixt loaded cars on deck for Danbury and
Bet el and It large amount of coal to trans—
lfer from the boats.
EXTENSION.
We have carried the past season an rggre-
gate of 39,855 passengers to and from the boat
for New York. Added to this the local travel
over the extension shows 9,176 tickets sold
from the several stations to Wilson Point and
for special excursions 5,400 making entire
54,431 passengers over the extension.
The merchandise freight by steamboat has
been from two to six car loads daily, for Nor-
walk, Danbnry, Bethel and Ridgcfieid. We
delivered in February 7.500 tons of ice which
was transferred to barges at Wilson Point.
This amount should be doubled the seasons
that ice is not plenty on Hudson river.
LOCOMOTIVES.
Two engines have been furniscd with new
fire-boxes, and practically rebuilt at Patter-
son, which increased thc repairs on engines
$5,000.
BRIDGESJ
Two bridges over Norwalk river at Nor-
walk and Winnipauk have been rebuilt entire,
and timber Is out for rebuilding Still river
bridge near Danbury. This has caused an in<
crease in bridge repairs of $3,500.
DEPOTS AND DULIDINGS.
The lack of room for the increased travel,
together with the dangerous condition of" the
approach and platform at Norwalk necessitat-
ed an outla of nearly $2,000 at that station
in blasting, uilding retaining wall and plat.
form.
'rnacn.
We have put in the last summer 11,325
crossties, costing $5,009.60. Labor on track,
$18,638.54.
nnooxsmn PARK.
The earnings from excursions toBrookside
Park is $3,000. On accounts of the rain d..-
ring camp meeting week the receipts for t... 7
week were reduced about $700, or one-h. If
less than last year.
In regard to engines and mileage of' sun .
engines of our passenger trains are main '
108 miles in running and switching at ca- '.
end of the road would make it equal to j. .
miles. This is for two passenger engii
daily. Engine on night freight runs fifty-ft
miles, and switching at Danbury, Nora's
South Norwalk and dock will add twenty-f. .
miles to above. The engine of day freig ;
will equal 100 miles in its running and switl- -
ing. We have six engines in daily use. '1 a
same mileage applies to engineers and i":
men of' above trains. Conductors of pass-
gers trains, 108 miles , night freight. equal
sixty miles daily.
C OLLISION.
The amount charged to collision is for the
repairs on two engines, rebuilding threo
freight ears that wore burned, and expenr .s
and attendance on the person injured.
cans, ETC.
We have 13 passenger cars, two of which
are combination. Four of the coaches need
overhauling, renovating and upholstcring
and repainting.
We are badly in need of a gravel pit for
ballast for track, and I would, for the good of
our track,advise the company to secure a suit
able place in which a supply could be obtain- _
ed as wanted.
Our main line needs a. gravel train with 25
men for two months the coming season.
All of which is respectfully submitted.

It is estimated by local politicians that
ex-Mayor Swarlz’s run for sheriff will
cost him in the neighborhood of $3,000,
as he intends to make a strong fight.
The total weight of the game bagged

The Consolidated company have been
following the example of the Danbury

between the rails on the Washington
street crossing, and the improvement is
one that foot passegers can well appreci-
ate.
A young man aimed Reilly, employed
in Lounshury Brothers’ shoe factory. dur-
ing Thursday afternoon placed his knee

to prevent a knife rolling to the floor, and
receivad a severe cut on the leg which
required the attendance of a surgeon.
Notwithstanding the frequent state-
ment that there were no apples grown in
this section this year, there can daily be
seen many barrels of nice looking ones
coming to our markets from this and
near by towns, which are probably
brought out in consequence of the high
prices now ruling.
Capt. Henry Wilson, of the United
States stcumtt' Lackawana, has just re-
turned from a two-years cruise, and is
stopping at the Westminster hotel in New
York city. Mr. Wilson is well known in
South Norwalk, having spent scvcralsum-
mcrs here. He will visit his old friends
here about November 1, after which he
will go south to spend the winter.
Mr. George C. Scofield, of Stamford,
was married to Miss Josephine C. Creas-
man, Wednesday evening, at the resi-
dence of the bride's parents on Bay View
avenue, by Rev. A. Hill, of the Methodist
church. On the same evening Mr. Chas,
M. Rose and Miss Susie Fitch were wed-
ded at the home of the bride in East Nor-
walk, by Rev. Mr. Cromlish,
A New York coaching party with four
coaches arrived at the Mahackcmo on
Wednesday evening. The party were
Commodore and Mrs. F. J. Allen, propri-
etor of the Astor House, R. C. Brown and
wife, N. L. Hunting and wife, Charles A.
Sterling and wife and four coachmen.
The party had been at Peeksklli. crossed
over to Danbury, and thence here. The
party left on Thursday morning, expect-
ng to much New York that day.
The common custom of finding fault
with committees acting for town, city or
corporations who devote their time to the
public without compensation, has, in one
instance,becn somewhat relaxed, and now
that the harbor bridge has been com-
pleted, not a few of the citizens of the
town are disposed to award due
praise and credit to the committee who
have caused the present structure to be
completed in so durable and acceptable
a manner. The bridge is indeed a great
improvement over the old one in point of
safety, appearance and durability, and
the committee are justly entitled to praise
therefor.
Trains on the Consolidated road were
delayed on the early Saturday down, and
those due here from New York at 5:12,
5.07 p. In. were about half an hour late;
and on Sunday a long freight train made
a two hours stop here waiting for a drink
for the locomotive of huckieberry water.
The water, (such as it is) was as usual
shut tff without notizc, and word had to
be bull. to have it turned on before the
tender funk could be filled. Whether the
water commissioneisfin making their con
tract to supply the railrou.‘ with water,
intruded to furnish freight trains with
Wulcf so that tin y could violate the old.
but. unparalled statute laws of the slate,
is not in evidence.
Indications of the prosperity of South.
Norwalk may be found in tin increased
business of Adams express-company as
well as in the great amount of freight
handled at the depot. The hotels are
full to overflowing, there are no vacant
stores to be had in the city, rents are
scarce, and real estate is held at top fig-
ures. Merchants say they are doing a
better business than at any time last year,
and find collections easier. The city’s
two mainstays—batting and oystcring—
arc booming. The season has been one
of the busiest known to the batting trade,
and oystermen are reaping a rich harvest.
We have a wise and judicious city gov-
ernment, everything is flourishing and
everybody happy.
_ The romantic experience of lilies Beach,
jthe Bethel young lady who wrote her
name on the iband of a lint and finally
married the New Orleans gentleman into
lwhose hands it fell, has brought trouble
, to one of the South Norwalk hat factories.
«After the facts of Miss Beach’s marriage
had been published the young ladies em-
ployed in the factory In question, anxious
~toproflt by her cxperiencc,teok to writing
their names on the tips or sweat-bands of
the hats they trimmed. About a month
lagoan order from an Ohio house was
greceivcd and filled by this factory. The
western firm discovered names in many
of the hats and wrote an indignant letter.
refusing to receive the goods. It is said
to be a fact that a number of South
. Norwalk’s fair but trimmers are exchang-
.iugletlcrs with western gentlemen, the
correspondence being brought about by
the Beach method. The sequel may be
looked for about a year hence.
The election fever is raging in this
city just now to an alarming extent, in
. local quarters, and Sunday was a busy
'day with the Democratic candidates for
deputy sheriff, who comprise nearly, if
not quite a majority of the party. The
candidates are endeavoring to show Re-
publican voters the great benefit that the
election of‘ the Democratic candidate for
county sheriff Would be to the city, and
are profuse in promises of comfort and
'aid, provided the Republicans will turn
I in and help elect him. One of the can
. didales for deputy was seen taking Gen-
and orders on Sunday morning, dressed
. in his best bib and tucker ; and from out-
~ward appearance, was contemplating a
' foreign visit where blarney would do the
'most good. It. is not believed that the
arguments and promises thus made will
induce to any extent the voting of Re
‘pubiicans for the Democratic nominee.
If there are any of the professed members
of the Republican party ‘that have been.
or may be induced to solicit Republicans
to vote' against the nominees of their
- own party, the sooner such men go over
to the Democracy the better it will be
for the Republican party; and those
voters whose votes they are soliciting,
rnay safely conclude that such solicitors
have sold themselves ferja mess of pot—
tage. either large or small, probably for
much more than they can be worth to
their purchaser.
