EDITORIAL LETTER.

Republicans. who finding the Democratic
majority “absentwithout leave," nothing

bill,but that bill is deemed entirely safe and'
no interest can suffer by the delay. The
House had its all night session to force a
settlement of the time when a vote should
be had upon the bill reinstating those
Mexican and Indian war-pensioners who
have been stricken from the pension rails
for their subsequent participation in the
armed rebellion to break up the union of
these‘United States. This measure was
resisted by the Republicans, because it
was looked upon as the entering wedge
to an act for pensioning the entire disabled
remnant of the laterebel army. The bill
will be forced through the House when
reached, but it is not believed that it can
be carried through the Senate. It will
be popular and tend to cement the Demo-
cratic party only at theasoutb, where it
doesn’t need it, and will prove anything
but helpful to that party through the
loyal sections of the country. Represents

tive Brown, of Indiana, has an amend-
ment |to offer to the bill, wuich, it is
thought, will worry the Democrats. It

is to pension every soldier who served one

year in the Unionvarmy in the late war,

regardless of whether they were injured

or not. The Republicans will maintain

that astbe Democrats propose to pension

Mexican soldiers on that plan, they cannot

afford to refuse the same benefit to

the Union soldiers.

'rn TARIFF.

The quarrel in the Democratic party
over the proper attitude on the tariff still
continues. This is natural and inevitable.
A. wide diversity of views exist on this
subject in the Ways and Means com-
mittee,_and extreme free trade sentiments
are in a minority. Outside of the com-
mittee-room the feeling is sill stronger
against material_revision. It begins to
look as if the leaders are beginning to see
the party outlook in the coming presiden-

.tial campaign is being made gloomy

indeed by the party‘s attitude on the tariff
in Congress. Mr. Dana, of the Sun, who
was here last week looking after the
Democratic prospects in the coming con-
test, is reported to have said that the
tariff agitation had already knocked out
every aspirant of,free-trade proclivities,
as to run a candidatcson this basis would
simply be to invite overwhelming ruin.
And‘at the same time he confessed that
he saw no liklinood of compromise be—
tween the two factions as led by Randall
and Carlisle. Meantime, Morrison is very
confident that his bill will pass the House,
but with Randall's'superior manipulation

.of the rules goverhing business in that

body, he may not~be able to .get his bill
even considered. One feature of the
Morrison billis just attracting the atten-
tion of those Democratic statesmen who
are lying awake nights because of the
excessiVe revenues of the country, and
that is such a sweeping and indiscriminate
reduction of duties on everything, as
Morrison proposes, will enormously stim-
ulate imports, and the result will be that
while our own manufacturers are crushed

,- and our own laborers thrown out of work

- ings of his bill anyway.

to enrich foreign traders, the government’s
revenues will thereby be greatly increased

Anent this feature of the Morrison bill,
the story is told that J udgc Kelly remark-
ed to the wild western tariff reformer ii at
he (Kelly) couldn't understand the bear-
“Wby. any
d---d fool could understand my bill if he
wanted to,” retorted Morrison with some
temper. “Exactly," replied the ever
bland Judge Kelly; "that is just my
difficulty. I not being that kind of. a man,
you see, I can’t understand as you so
easily do.” The tarifi is the big bugaboo
and nightmare that now robs all the
Democratic statesmen's days of jollity
and all his nights of rest, and as one (a
member of the House) in our presence in
few moments ago remarked, ‘.‘I wish this
whole tariff business was in -——," well,
where they don’t have ice-water.

Columbus Delano. of Ohio, made an
argument before the Ways and Means
committee in favor of the restoration of
the duties on wool imposed in the tariff
of 1869. He €poke in behalf of the wool
growers of this country. He claimed
that the new duties were detrimental to
the interests of the wool growers, and
characterized the act of 1883 as an act
of divorce between the wool growersand
wool manufacturers without cause- and
without alimony, and which ought to br-
sct aside. The divorce, he said, was
granted for want of equity, and Congres:~
should determine whether the interest was
to languish in several states. '

Lomnras AND ran MAIL.

The Senate committee on post offices
and post roads had up for consideration
the bill to provide the mailing of news-

lottery advertisements and to amend the
postal laws so as to provide that the
postmaster fgeneral be authorized to
prohibit the delivery of registered letters
or the payment of postal money order~

distribution of money, or of any real or

false or fraudulent representations or
promises. It is expected that both will
be repOrtcd on favorably.

as to us. ‘ _

Meanwhile the whole subject has lost
its dignity from being captured bythe
American humorist. This irrevereifi
being is treating the topic with a fatal
levity. Bismarck, the American hog, the
navy,and the distinguished member from
Texas, are treated as Objects of murder;-

Damask.

Tire Dsnville riot examination is still
going on. One. Democratic justice of the
peace testified in our; hearing, that al-
though there was a large majority of
colored voters in Danvllle. the Democrats
there would never be satisfied to have the
negro elect one of the three justices from
their race as they had done, although the
incumbent was an educated, honest and
fair man, and could write a better hand
“than any of his white associates.” _

Brother Wm. H. Barnum was, we
were glad to record, well enough to be
here and help get his “mules" into work-
ing order for the Democratic National
convention. Chicago wins the doubtful
prize. and the 8th of July is to be the
red hot day for the grand old party to
meet and organize—defeat! St Louis
made a heated canvass for the honor of
having the convention held there, but the
recent delugeof cold water seemed to
make that city and Cincinnati, “sour on
the stomach” of the average delegate,and
when an “did liner" of the party got up
and told-the story at the last Democratic
convention, held in St. Louis, they had to
fill their wash basins over night so the
mud in the water would settle at the
bottom, and he, not understanding this
local peculiarity, had plunged his swelled
head into his basin before daylight, the
first morning after his arrival, and draw-
ing back, with nose, eyes, ears and hair
dripping with river mud, he solemnly
asked, -“what beastly, dirty Democrat

two fellows who had sleept in the same

The "call" is as noncommitlal as it
well can'be, And in its intentfinnl vague
ness represents the anxiety of the party to
remain neutral on tariff reform. '

True to its traditions, the party is to
follow the Republicans in the ti e and
even the place of opening the campaign.

A BAD om.

Sam. Randall went over to address the
unterrified in Philadelphia and assured the
“boys” in his speech that “as Philadelphia
goes, so goes the state, and as goes the
state, so goes the dext presidential con-
test.” The overwhelming Republican
sweep of the Quaker City, has exposed
Randall’s predictions to unmerited and un-
merciful criticism. Not only did Phila-
delphia roll up a big Republican majority
Tuesday. but large gains, for that party
are reported all through the State ,
wherever municipal elections were held.
In Pirtsburg, Lancaster, Erie. Norristown
and many other places the increase in
Republican strength is significant. The
result shows that Pennsylvania can. be
counted on to vote the Republican ticket
next fall on a protection issue.

A petition was forwarded from Chicago

representing a total ownership of not less
than $50,000,000 worth of cattle.

WAYSIDE GLEANINGS.

Ruzg. the negro desperado, has, been
recaptured. There is but little deubt
that he is the author of all the terrible
murders and outrages that have caused
so much horror and excitement lately on
Long Island. His escape from prison a
few days since by jumping from a win-
dow forty feet above ground sufficiently
t-tlustrates the desperate character of the
man. Hanging is hardly an adequate
punishment for the crimes with which he
is charged. ‘

Pennsylvania gives the first report in
the campaign of 1884. It is true the
elections just\ held were municipal, but
almost universally they were based on
partisan lines. Mr. Carlisle and, Mr.
Randall represent very widely separated
ideas on one of the issues bound to enter
largely into the presidential fight, but it
is not likely either will be able to extract
any large amount of encouragement from
the returnsof last Tuesday. For the Re-
publicausjhswever, they are full of pleas-
ant augury.

New York Tribune: Poor Salmi Morse
has a melancholy end of a very eccentric
career. He possessed the Hebraic gift of
financial aptitude to a certain extent, but
he lacked the balance to make it available.
He 'made a good deal of money on two or
three occasions. but he thcn became the
slave of a “fixed idea,” and many who
knew him believed him to have been
more than a little mad toward the last.
His “Passion Play” was probably conceit
ed in a reverential spirit, but it was none
ihe less a mistake, and when it failed he
lost heart, accused the world of injustice,
and so descended to suicide

' OBITUARY.

 

'
THOMAS n. MORISON.

Mr. Thomas H. Morison, who has been
sslriously ill at Nassau. N. I’., for some
time past and in whose condition the
people of Norwalk have been more than
ordinarily interested, died at that place
on Sunday, the 10th of February.

No notice was received here of his
death although a telegram was sent from
Key West shortly after the occurrence.
The dispatch which should have arrived
la tTuesday was delayed and ‘did not
reach here until Friday morning.

The latest advices from Mrs. Morison,
who was at the bedside Of her lmsband,
stated that Mr. Morison’s condition was
such that all hope of his recovery had
been given up, and his death might be
looked for at any'moment. This in a
measure prepared his friends for his
death, and as the steamer from Nassau
was to arrive in New ' York Triday
Messrs. C. B. Coolidge, C. E. St. John,
J. T. Prowitt and W. A. Curtis, accom-
panied by Undertaker Quintard, went to

'New York on an early train to receive

the remains in case they shohld arrive
The steamer came. and the remains
enclosed in a sealed metalic casket were
on board. They were transferred to the
Grand Central depot and placed on board
the 1 o’clock express, arriving at South

. Norwalk at 2:12. '

Here a party of friende,,uotiiied by
telegraph of Mr. Morison’s death, met the
remains and escorted them to his late
residence on West avenue.

Mr. Morison had been ailing for some
time and had gone to Nassau in hopes to
recover health and strength. A rough
and te’mpestuous passage over on the
steamer aggravated his complaint and on
reaching port he immediately took to his
bed from which he never arose. The best
that love and wealth could furnish was
his, but all was of no avail. '

Many deep and fervent words of
sorrow and respect Were heard on every .
side, and
None so poor but did him reverence.

A touching incident was noticed. he
flags about town, raised .in honor of
Washington's birthday, upon notice of
Mr. Morison's death being made public

and seemed to speak the sorrow so wide.
ly felt. . ‘

As Mr. Morison‘s death occurred on
the 10th of February, the following no-
tlce, published in the Gamma of Janu-
ary 15th, hardly three weeks previous,
when the serious character of his illness
was soertsined,'ia of peculiar and touch-
ing interest: '

The recent announcement of the critical
illness of lift. Morison, far from his home,
his family and friends, among strangers
and lua foreign clime, drew forth the
kindly sympathies and stirred the better
feelings of his fellow townspeople to an
extent most creditable to our poor human
natures. It was felt here at his home,
that one of its foremost business men and
enterprising citizens, whose place could

-not. soon be filled, was likely to fall, to be

lost to his family, to the town and to the
great intense business world. In the con-
templation of such a demise. there was
none of theconsdling conditions or in-
fiuences attending the departure of the
aged man of affairs. who having well
nigh outlived the allotted quota of human
life, and having Well fulfilled his earthly
mission and surrounded‘by the cherished
idols of his home, lies ‘down in the sweet
and quiet sleep of death. as one lies down
to fieasaut dreams. Such is the fitting
end of a life of completed usefulness, and
though men may grieve that the loved
and long familiar face and form are seen
no more, their sorrow is always tempered
with the sublime faith and knowledge,
that a timely end to a worthy life is not

.a hardship, but really an ineatimable

blessing. But when , a man who has
scarce reached the zenith of his years and
whose possibilities of blessing and useful.
nose to his family and his fellow men,‘are
at their height, and when it is expected
that robust manhood should have reached
its prime,to have the silver cord of human
existence _. suddenly snapped, meridian
hopes and aspirations all unfulfilled, and
the life work all incomplete, when such .
an one is hurried into eternity, no words
can express the despair of those thus be- ,
reaved by fate. before their time. Such
a death leaves with it a measure of re-
gret and burden of agony, that years can-
not eflaite, and which only God's ipfinitc
consolations can heal. It was very much
such‘a death that our little community

was so suddenly called to‘contemplate I
and which proved, so absoltrtely,.sucb a 7 .

“touch of nature as makes the whole l
world kin.” Although the latest advices
from Mr. Morison, as all will be glad to
know, are of ~ encouraging character
it is not to he :disguised that serious apv
prehcnsion as to _his entire restoration
are still felt by those who best know his
condition. 0f one ‘fact, 'however, there
is no shadow of doubt, could the prayers
and good wishes of this whole people
which went up‘ for the grief stricken
wife, who instantly and literally fiew “on
the wings of the wind", to be .by the
stricken husband's bedside—avail, that
husband and father would {be sorely and

speedily restored.

The funeral services will be held to-
mcrrow' (Wednesday) afternoon at 3
o'clock, at his late residence on West
avenue. '

Stephen H. Pardee, brother of Dr. M.
B. Pardee; of South Norw'slk, who died
early last Wednesday morning at his
home in New Canaan. of pleura-pneumo-
nia, was a man intimately connected with
the business interests of tbst‘town; wag
prominent in evei'y'movement that had
for its object the advancement of the
place. . or the‘ elevation of its people.
He was born in Lewishuro, N. Y., in
1819, and went to New Canaan in 1858,
where he had since resided. In 1857 he
entered business with Mr. Chas. Bay-
mond, under the firm hem of Raymond
«I: Pardeé, and was a successful business
man. He represented the town in the
Legislature in 1804. He leaves a widow
and one son. The funeral services were
held in the New Canaan Congreg'ational
church, Saturday afternoon. 'Thc do

This company is the owner of the
patented car axle oiler, invented by Mr.
cht, of Watertt‘wn, N. Y., and which
was put in working operation last sum-
mer “the machine shop of the Daubury
and' Norwalk Railroad in Danbury, by
Superintendent Ssndiforth and Master
Mechanic George, and afterwards run
during the entire term of the railroad
exposition at Chicago, where its merits
were fully established. This oilcr is
applied to any car axle now in use,
and does swity with the use of cotton
waste, saves nearly seventy per cent. in
oil, and when in use does away with the
annoyance and danger of hot boxes; and
had this oiler been in use on the rail»
road mentioned in the following telegram
there would have been no necessity for
sending it:
"Bantsrox'rsixs, 0., February 16.—
Ten car loads of coal on a train on the

bot box and were consumed.”

Su rintendent Ssndiforih and Master

Mec anlc George .are large stockholders
in the company organised as above, and
Mr. George is now in California intro.
ducing the oiler. On his way out,-
Mr. 'George sold royalties to a large
number, the price being $6.00 per
car for the right to use, which will be
saved in oil and wate in a few ntonths by
the companies adopting the new oiler.
The friends of Messrs. Sandil'crth and

George will, we are sure, beglsd to learn
of their good fortune, and will wish them

 

continued success.

i A Maniac’s Grunt. '

One of the mostcrucl and combination ;

murders ever perpetrated in the State
occurred Friday in Spoouville, a little
hamlet in the town of East Granby, about
two miles south of Tarifiville. .chry C.
Ely, aged forty years, a member of the
firm of J. Ely & 00., (listiliet‘s. of liquor
at Williamsburg, and a man no promi-
nent in social circles of New York, but
whose mind had given way under the
strain of a fast life, beheaded his keeper,
John Harden, with an axe. For two
yearsEly was confined in a private insane
asylum, but becoming apparently harm-
less, he was,by the advice of his physi-
cian, removed to the residence of his
sister, Mrs. Whitefield B. Cowles in
Granby, where, for five years, he was
cared for by Harden. Last 'Jauuary
Harding abandoned his position and went
to Brooklyn, N. Y., to engagc in business.
He returned to the little village on Thurs.
day by invitation of Mr.- and Mrs. Cowles,
to pass Washington's birthday in the
company of his former patient, to whom
he had become greatly attached. Ely had
for some reason suddenly formed a dislike
for Harden and spoke croasly to him.
Just after breakfast Harden went to a
barn in the rear of the house to look after
the horses, and'sircn went to a woodshedv
adjoining to wash his bands.
was standing at a bench washing from a
pail of water when Ely stenlthily entered
the shed. fle caught up an axe and with
'a well-directed blow felled his former
keeper to the ground. He then deliber~
ately chopped his victims head from his
body, as an examination showed,at least a
dozen blows being necessary to completely
sever the head from the trunk. Then the
murderer deliberately kicked the head
from the shed endahout the yard. Ely
danced, swung his arms and cried out. in
fiendish glee: time and again, "There; I '
guess I've fixd him now.”, This attracred
the attention of Ely’s sister, and she ran
to tho yard and discovered the murderer
at his diabolical play. The lunatic made
no start to escape, and was captured, and
placed under control. .

Ely was possessed ,of property valued
at $50,000 to $100,000 in his own right,
and held a seat at one time in the New
York ProduceExchange. He is connect
ed with some of the most influential
families, socially and politically, in this
State and all his family are wealthy.

A hearing in the case was held Saturday
morning. When called to plead, the
prisoner said: “Sir, I was justified in.
killing Harden." _ Thenhe sat down and‘
went to sleep. The prisonar was bound
over for trial in March and lodged in the
county jail. The father and brother of
the murdered man arrived in Tariffvillc
Friday night and took the body in charge.

 

Sudden Death of George L. Webb

George F. Webb, a wealthy citizen of
Stamford, died suddenly of heart disease
Tuesday afternoon iu'front of Theodore
Kuapp's restaurant, on Main street, South
Norwalk. Mr. Webb entered the restau
rant about noott and called for dinner.
Before finishing the meal he arose from
table, and without speaking staggered to.
ward the door. The proprietor’s atten-

tion was called to the man by his wife,

who remarked that he acted as if he was
sick. Mr. Knapp stepped forward and
assisted Webb lo the sidewalk where he sat
down on a wheelbarrow. Presently some
one entered and said the man was dead.
Mr. Knapp replied that be guessed n'ot ;
that the man had evidently been drinking
and was sick. The man persisted that
Webb was dead, ‘uud an examination ’
proved the statement to be a. fact. The
body was removed to the oyster saloon
under the restaurant, and Medical Exami-

- ncr Burke was summoned, who pronounc-

ed the csuse of the man’s death to be
heart disease, brought about excessive
drinking. The remains were placed in
charge of Undertaker Gregory, and later
in the day were removed to Stamford by
a brother of the deceased.

Mr. Webb was a quiet, fine appearing
gentleman about fifty years of age, and a
painter by trade. A short time since he
cameintoa possession of a fortune of
885,000 and lived rrpon the interest of
the amount. Helost his wife about a
year ago, and this, in connection with
other family troubles, undoubtedly led
him to drinking. ‘ Having been refused
liquor in Stamford and Darien, he was in
the habit of coming toSouth Norwalk
nearly every day‘ to satisfy his insatiate
desire for drink.

Three .children, besides brothers and
sisters are left to mourn his and death.
