NQRWALK GAZETTE; T used-y. March 1 1 , 188%. “from LII'IIR. Vultures, March 10th, 1884. D“! Conn! :--The Tarff continues the vexatious bugaboo that paralyzes the progress of all needful legislation in the Democratic House. The Ways and Ileana committee have practically en- dorsed the modified Morrison .bill by 'a party vote, and it is expected that it will 0° “90"“! IO-day. The open rupture in the Democratic ranks cannot therefore be much longer deferred. It will not do, however, for Republicans to rely for their party success on this lively Democratic quarrel that is sure to ensue. That party » will tear out each others eyes, and then go and vote the "regular ticket” with the most amazing unanimity and promp'itude. Their nominating convention to convene in Chicago only 'four months ahead, admonishes both the protective and free- irade champions of that party to so Play their double dealing parts as to work in their presidential candidate next fall, Mr._ Randall himself is sitting on the barbed—wire fence, so to speak, as he has the presidential bee in his bonnet, and while radically and thoroughly for pro- tection,ho‘must defeat his insane free; trade colleagues by subterfuge and in- direction, sons to escape their maladie- tions. The protectionists may prefer to content themselves with recording .a protest and then put upon the Senate the ' duty of slaughtering the hill, hiding their time, in the belief that the convention will lustify their policy rather than that of the Cordials-Morrison wing. In the House the Randall faction are in ‘the minority, but it is not at all unlikely that the relative strength of the two wings will be found to be reversed at the con~ vention, and if this is to be the case, it woald be folly for the Randall men to make the fight where they would he at a disadvantage. The fight may be post- poned till the convention, and in the light of that fact it is worth noting that the Randall-PayneTilden idea, as opposed to the cherished notions of "the Kentucky CTOWd," is gaining ground. It has won several victories of strategic importance recently, which inspire its supporters with confidence that when the convention adjunrns it .willbe seen that the ticket and platform stand for the conservative ele» ment of the party, and the Ohio or “Estonian" plank as the tarifl feature of the campaign platform. When an attempt was made to force a vote to restore the old tarifl on wool the Democrats forced an adjournment and ran away. A few of the more courageous of their leaders demanded that the issue should be fairly met and voted down, but these men could not check the stampede-of the rank and file of the party who dared not confront and squarely fight down the proposition. But the Democrats cannot hope to escape the «tarifl issue altogether by running away. This very question as to the res. toration of the duty upon wool will con- front them again. It illustrates the troubles of the Democratic party with regard to the tarifl. Mr. Converse is pleaded with by his party associates no‘ to above that ugly question before them, but he is not a free agent in the matter. Bis constituents, as with one voice, are demanding that he shall make the fight for them, and a member of Congress must obey those upon whose votes he depends, even when that obedience embarrasses his party. . Again, a special effort was made to carry the vacant 'Haakell district in Kansas by the organised Free Tradersl Money and speakers and the free trade printing presses were turned loose, over that prairie region, with the vigorous predic- tion that it. would be overwhelmingly carried on a "tarifi reform" war cry. The election just held shows that even agricultural Kansas is not disposed to step out of the Republican ranks on the tarifi issue. It had been claimed that the election which was made to turn on this question would justify the prediction that on a tarifl reform platform several other western states, heretofore Republi- can, would become Democratic. The. ' Kansas election was regarded, therefore, as of special importance as an indication of the predicted change in public opinion. The result is most discouraging to the friends of low duties as a party cry. as the district has gone Republican by an overwhelmingly increased majority. in spite of the earnest canvass by the free- traders. ‘ ' Randle, Saturday, headed o! the at. tempt of his Democratic brethren to take up and pass’the whiskey bill, by intro. dueing one of his appropriation hills which he had kept in his pocket for any similar, useful purpose. mar. nuns. The decision of the Supreme Court in the legal tender case is one of prime importance, though it will have little practical consequence just at this time. It finally disposes of the question Whether paper Treasury notes are constitutional money, by declaring that, under circum- stances of urgency at least, they may be so regarded. The decision will not lead to inflation schemes, but it, in a measure, ratifies theories which at one time threat- ened much trouble, and may again. The decision has excited much com- ment and many dissenting views from men here in Congress who are concededly learned in the law. The very morning the decision was rendered at the Supreme Court room, Secretary Folger stated to a Michigan congressman his personal belief that the opinion of the court would be just the reverse. Judge Folger, as an erudite lawyer, is everywhere con. sidered the peer of' any man sitting on the Supreme court bench. corral occurs. One of the interesting incidents attend- ing the visit of the Senate's investigating committee to Mississippi, was the tone . Copiah in of ridicule and incredulity indulged in. by the conservatively Democratic Star newspaper here. It jeercd the idea of the Republicans attempting “to flaunt the bloody shirt" again and that outrages were liable to occur in the best of North- ern counties, etc. Before the committee has had time to issue its report and only on the partial statements from Southern newspapers, the Star makes this truthful admission: The most damaging testimony in the vestigation does not. com'e from but from Democrats. Judged from the statements of friendly- tileposed witnesses, and the evidence of the parties most directly implicated, the state of society in the region vislted rs simply barbarous. Copiah county needs missionaries fully as much as Borriaboola. gha. The Republicans cannot . help mulling good campaign use of the raves ligation testimony, and they are indebted to the Democratic witnesses for lbe most striking evidence. AT non. To the large and influential company of visitors now here from Connecticut, there t been anything the past week of as startling and stirring interest transpiring althu National Capital as at the State Capital at Hartford, and the sudden and unexpected advent of Governor Waller here on Friday, gave a renewed awaken. ity and the desire to know mow as to what all the Democratic rum- “ ounngcticut was about. The tcle graphic dispatches oi" the Associated Press had made our dapper but amiable little Governor and two representative Demo- fielri county suddenly famous the country and the world. inwardncss" of lhc counts at between Democratic brethen if ever, on the eve of dential struggle, to Republicans, has no trig lo curios pusi cruise of Full throughout The “H‘ulS Hartford, who ought now, . their new": Pleat dwell together in harmony ant: peace, was hard to get or conjecture. hour cor« respondent therefore look the ’i’irst oppor. tuaity possible to “lutervtew the Gov. ernor. lie told his story without reserve and with undoubted candor. He greatly impressed us that he was not overwhelm- ed with a sense of admiration of the “methods" of more than one Fairflelll ’county Democratic politician. He con- fesses himself to have been outwitted and lays the origin and blame of all his dis. comforture to the charge of one to whom it was apparent that the “emoluments," and not the “honors" of ofiice, are the chief end of the man. The Governor says he has nothing to dread from the publication of his private letters. He wrote nothing, said nothing, and did noth last to shock or startle the ordinary can- J didatc for office in the same circumstances. Representative Mitchell, being inter- viewed, says when he was applied to by Mr. Gallagher for funds to help the Gov- ernor through the election. be promptly handed over $1,500 to the chairman of the Democratic State Central committee, without reservation or condition, and he has no apologies to make to anybody. It has transpired, however, that there was avery pretty little family quarrel going on among the “fare-handed" men" of that party. At the first lacteal Barnum re- fused to be milked, because he was disap- pointed and chagrined at Waller’n nomi- nation. Ex-Goveraor English was sour and disgruntled for the same reason and having been drained enormously on almost every pretext for the Dem0cratic cause, also resolutely refused to come down. Lateia the canvass he did chip in a couple of hundred dollars, whereat the facetious candidate for gubernatorial honors suggested it had better be return- ed, as it might be with difficulty that he could spare it,'he not being worth above five millions. But true'to Democratic instinct, Chairman Gallagher never re turned a farthing. Altogether it is a pret- ty Democratic fight, and as one of their, number admitted in the writers hearing, .“the Republicans seem to have ,our party on the run." They may depend that all - the signs of the times conclusively prove that the Republican party will continue' to “hold the fort." rxnaoaau. The votr -craving women have had their annual National meetings hire the past week. Henry Ward Beecher lectured in Dr. Rankin’a church on a trip across the continent and eloquently outlined the mighty empire he is sure will grow up on our great northern borders in the next twenty years. Hon. Fred. Miles, Hon. Aug. Brenda- gee; Skiddy of Stamford, and Hobbs of Bridgeport, are among our last week‘s Connecticut visitors. Mrs. Dr. Barbour and her sister, Mrs. Poole, left Saturday for a short visit to Richmond. They will return to Washington at the end of this week and continue their visit here. ‘ As ever, m The Hartford and suits. An animated discussion took place in the House, Friday afternoon, on the petition of the Hartford and Harlem railro‘ad for the privilegeé of making certain connections with other roads and to establish the legality of the coporstion. Mr. Rrainard, of ,Hsrtford, chairman of the committee on railroads, explained why the committee had reported advanc- ly. The committte found that the commissioners after the hparlng had grave doubts of the legality of the organization which, if found to be well founded, would terminate the existence of the road. However, the commissioners gave the company the benefit of the doubt, believing that aggrieved parties would appeal to the courts. Under allths circumstances the committee felt that they should not undertake to- decide the difii- cult and intricate points involved and which were soon to be passed upon by the courts. They therefore advi'ed that the petitionerrhave leave to withdraw. # 1‘. ll. Monson’s Will. The will of the the Thomas H. Mori- son has been admitted to probate. By its terms his wife is left the family residence and a life interest in the sum of $100,000; The three children of Mr. Morison’s sis- ter,Arianna Morison Hutchinson, are each left $10,000. To'eacb of the three child- ren of his brother-in-law, Theodore A. Sheffield, the sum of 85,000 is bequeath- ed.. The family servants, Alex. Smith, Bridget Delaney and Nellie Delaney , each receive $500. The sum of $100,000 is bequeathed to his son, Thomas Shelli Moriaon,after he shall have reached 1 e age of twenty-one. Upon his attaining the age of twenty-five, the balance of the property except such as is herein disposed of. becomes his. The will provides that, in case of the death of his IOII before reaching the above age. these bequests :shall be equally divided between the three children of the tests- tor’s sister, Ariana M. Hutchinson. The same provision is made in case of the death of his wife. The testator appoints his wife, son, hrother~ln~law, (Gardiner Spring Hutchinson) and William A. Curtis as executors without bonds. The entire estate is valued at about $500,000. Legislative ltsnrs. Numerous petitions are pouring into the Legislature for the bill for pecuniary aid to disabled firemen. The resolution appointing Then. 1. Ray. mood, of South Norwalk, and Wm. [1 Law, of New Haven, state auditors,whicb was passed a few days ago by the House, was passed Friday in the Senate. The committees are completing their labors with'gre‘at rapidity, and most of them will fiirslah their work this week. Forty members of the Legislature, in- cluding the committee on humans institu- tions. visited the insane hospital at Middletown, Saturday, and made an inspection of the institution. ' m The lot Storm. The ice storm which began Friday night and continued until a late hour Sun- day night, covered everything out of doors with acoating of ice such as has seldom been seen. The trees were weighted down by a heavy coating of ice and nrany of them broken. Considerable damage reulted t , elephone and telegraph wires, commni on. with neighboring towns being entirely out ofi'.- The effect produced yesterday morning as the sun played and sparkled upon this crystal mass, was a beautiful sight such as is sel- dom fnraished to the eye. B. u ' Governor 'Wallsr's Opinion The following item appeared in the New York Eesm'n' Post's Washington correspondence of last Saturday: Gov. Waller, of Connectict, who is here, is quoted as expressing great. dissatisfaction with the Democratic conduct of affairs in Washington, and as saying that the Democratic House had done nothing but to show unfitness to control public affairs and that, probably, Connecticut will give 5.000 Republican" majority next fall. The Baltimore Amrfean,Repnblican.is author- ity for this statement. # ____.____.. ‘l‘wo (hashes Thrown into ills Harlem River.

So fur as the premium list has been completed the number of judges in each class has been increased to live, and greatenru has been taken to select persons competent, and those who§will give personal attention to the duties of their appointment. An adjourned meeting will be held at Mr. St. John’s to arrange speed premiums and appoint committees, on Thursday this week, and it is probable that a distinct committee will be chosen for each day, thus doing away with what the public have been inclined lp consider, in years past, as too much exclusivencss in horse matters. .lti the arrangement of the programme for each day care has been taken to avoid those interminable delays in the speed classes, that have lrorctoforu‘ been so wearisome and vexatious to those looking on, enough speed and exhibition classes having been added to fill _up the allotted time. One of the, new features will be running races, both on Thursday and Friday; and exhibitions of private teams and equestrianism, for which suit- able discretionary premiums will be awarded. Application has already been made for large exhibition spaces in the building, and the prospect now is that the exhibition will surpass any heretofore made in the county. The directors voted to admit children attending the public schools in the county at ten cents each on Wednesday, and the programme for that day is much nrore attractive than on the same day herclof ire. First Church, Norwalk, Cons. This church, under the pastoral care of Rev. C. II. Everest, has received a large addition to its numbers of late. (in the first Sunday in January sixteen were brought in, by profession, and at the March communion thirty, besides four by letter. A considerable proportion of this last accession are men in active business, banking. manufacturing and mercantile, and one is a physician; This ancient church (organized in 1058) has enjoyed many precious seasons of revival. The records prior to 1807 were lost in the destruction of the parsonage after the death of Rev. Dr. Burnct, in 1806. After the installation of Rev. R.-R. Swan, January, 1807, 28 were added that year, by profession; in 1808, 80; in 1800, 25, one of whom survives, in her 96th year; in 1810, 27; in 1816, 191; in'1829, under Rev.

In argument before the legislative tern- perance committee for the higher license cause, Ben. L. D Brewster, of Danbury, argued that those who paid high for liceu sea 1th in self-defence see that the law was enforced and would act as police in the trade. He said the eflecl bf high li- cease was towards temperance. Citing Danbury as an illustration, he said that place had now fifty or sixty saloons. The local police cannot look after them all to see that the law is properly executed. Pass a high license bill and the numth' would be so reduced that real supervision would be possible. He cited reports to show the emciency of high license law. news or rhn WEEK. Jerome Collins’s body has arrived in Quecnstown.
