1 Relation Representative eaten.
' V HE REPUBLICANS of the First and
.I.‘ Third Voting Districts are hereby no-
tified that a Caucus will be held. at the
Town House on Wednesday evening, Oc-
tober 28th, at 8 o'clock, for the,purpose of
nominatinga Candidate forRepresentatlve.
Per Order, TOWN COMMITTEE.
Is it to be Success or Defeat P
The question of who shallbe the nominees
for representative, is just now agitating
the minds of many at this end of the town.
Candidates in both parties are not wanting
and yet are not numerous. But over such
as there are an earnest discussion is being
held, and, in all probability, the selections
will practically be made long before the
caucusses. In the coming elections what
is known as the “labor vote," is destined
to be an important factor. The defeat of
the citizens’ movement at the recent city
election has evinced the strength of the la-
bor element and both political parties are
somewhat anxious to propitiate that ele-
ment and rally them’in a. body to the sup-
port of their tickets. In this respect the
republicans may be said to be the more
anxious, as Norwalk is generally regarded
as a republican town. Thus, in the com-
ing contest, the republicans have the con-
tingency of defeat, whereasthe democracy
virtually have nothing to lose and every-
thing to gain. The labor vote is the bal-
ancc of power. With that added to the
regular democratic strength thesuccess of
the democracy is assured. With the labor
element in favor of the republican ticket
there can be no question as to its certain
success. And the second voting district
is the battleground upon which the chief
point of contest in the coming struggle
will be decided. The truth and force of
this statement can readily be seen by the
following figures:
In 1882 the average vote for representa--
tive in the second district was 709. Leav-
ing out the republicanvote of that district,
the number of votes necessary to elect a
republican would have been 120. In 1883
the average vote was 822 and the number
necessary to elect (leaving out the repub-
lican vote of the district) was 317. The
district in 1884 averaged 1,017 votes, with
a necessity for 519 to elect, leaving out the
republican vote again. It will thus be
seen that the average, for each year, of the
total vote, was 849, and that the number
of votes necessary to be received in the
second district in order to elect a republi-
can, was an average of 319.
At the recent city election the vote of
the “People's Ticket" averaged 386. And
it is but fair to recognize this as the
strength of the labor movement in that
city, and therefore it safely can be reck-
oned as a unit. On the other hand, while
the “citizen‘s" ticket averaged 379 votes,
it was but the conjuction'of both republi-
can and democratic residents who, for
personal and peculiar reasons, feared the
success of the People's ticket. This con-
junction applied alone to local matters,
and in a straight contest between a demo.
crat and a republican candidate could not
be maintained. And, split in twain it
would lose all of its importance, and so
need not be considered.
On the contrary, the unit vote of 386 is
a power, and if these 386 votes could be
assured to the republican ticket this year,
on the basis of the three year average there
would be 67 votes to spare, besides such
accessions as the popularity of the nomi-
nees might receive from the ranks of the
citizens, and which in all probability would
be large.
We trust the republican party of the
town will study these figures, and when it
has studied them, for its own good we
trust it will act upon them.
Success or defeat lies with the caucus.

SenatorialCaucus. .
The caucus for the nomination of dele-
gates to the senatorial convention was held
in the Gamma ofiice on'Wednesday even-
ing. E. J. Hill was appointed chairman
' . and A. E. Austin secretary. The call was
read and the meeting then appointed
Messrs. E. J. Hill and A. E. Austin as
delegates. A motion was passed that
while the delegates were not to consider
themselves instructed, the sense of the
meeting was that they should support
Hon. W. B. Glover of Fairfield in event of
his nomination. The delegates were also
authorized to appoint their own substi-
tutcs iii case either was unable to be
present. Mr. C. B. Coolidge was appoin-
ted senatorial committee after which the
meeting adjourned. A
The senatorial conventionwill be called.

True, Every Word of It.
The republicans of the 13th senatorial
district will in all probability select Mr.
William B. Glover, of Fairficld, as their
candidate. The district is naturallydenio-
cratic, but Mr. Glovor has elements of
popularity which his democratic competitor
will find it hard to overcome. He has
represented Fairfield in the lower house
and made for himself a record which ex-
tends over the state. He is a gentleman
of rare culture and ability. His election
would be a credit to the district—Bridge-
port Post. ‘
. Queer, Isn’t it 1’
Here at the North republican politicians
are proclaiming that the South is still rem
bellious and will not permit black men to
vote. There at the South a spirited cam-
paign is being carried on by a democratic‘
candidate who rides gallantly up and
down the state "clad in confederate gray,
at the head of a clanking cavalcadc,” and
holding aloft a confederate flag. And yet
both parties alike abhor any allusion to
the war or the blood stained under gar-
ment. We live in .the days of grand old
parties.——Winstcd Press.

Hope at Last.
The election of a sound republican
mayor at South Norwalk, or some other
cause, has inspired the city rulers to
inaugurate measures in‘ conjunction with
the railroad commissioners, which it is to
be hoped,'will result in securing more
reliable safeguards at that dangerous and
ofttimes fatal crossing.

An ugly fight between two men and
several women occurred in a house in the
rear of ' Hounecker‘s bakery, Saturday
night, and some of the participants were
badly used up.
' corner of
Glorious Ohio.
Ohio tried one term of democratic rule
and like all other state‘s experiences, the
more democracy they had the less the
people liked it.
During the three years, 1880 to 1882
inclusive, under a republican administra-
tion the expenses of the Ohio. state gov-
ernment averaged $2,347,526.
During the three years 1883 to 1885
inclusive, the expensesunder a democratic
administration amount to an ayerage per
annum- of $3,304,614. oran annual increase
under democratic rule of $957,089. This
showing moreover takes no account of the
loss of between two and three millions of
dollars of revenue to the state by the
democratic repeal of the Scott law,
neither does it include the numerous
stealings by democratic county officials
amounting to over one million dollars.
Tltc Cleveland Leader charges that twenty-
five of their county treasurers have proved
defaulters.
It is not to bewondered at that the
people rose up in their majesty and might
and voted the untamed democracy under.
The republican state ticket is triumphantly
elected. Desperate efforts arebeing made
by democratic thugs to steal the legisla-
ture, but their plots cannot succeed and
John Sherman will undoubtedly succeed
himself in the United States senate.
Every trick- and device known to the
democracy was resorted to, to elect their
ticket. The most ridiculous as well‘as
desperate scheme of the democracy was
to utilize the temperance vote, the same
as they did. in the presidential election,
but it was a most ignominious failure.
They had our candidate for governor
interrogated wherever he spoke as to his
position on the temperance issue and he
.manfully replied that “the republican
party was in favor of taxation regulation
and opposed to the nonsense of favoring
what cannot be accomplished." The
democratic governor announced'himsclf
so unequivocally for free beer and rum, to
catch ‘the German vote, that he drove
thousands of the more decent of his own
party from sheer disgust at his sentiments,
to vote the temperance ticket. The
Sunday before the election in 'their
desperate eagerness to again defeat the
republican ticket by the instrumentality
of the temperance vote, they flooded the
Sunday schools with the prohibitionist
election tickets. Such indecent conduct
seems to have had the efiect in Ohio of
drawing more votes away from their own
party than from the republicans, and the
leaders in this deceitful work are very
sick over the result. It is safe to predict
that when democrats find that theold rule
of nine'republicans to-one democrat are to
be caught by the temperance ticket
subterfuge, don't work, asseems to have
been the case in Ohio, they will cease to
divide the money they collect from the
distillers and dram shops, with their
temperance allies, as was so lavishly done
in the last presidential contest. in' this
connection the Indianapolis Journal,
speaking of the prohibition candidate in
Ohio says: “There ltas never been such
adreadful collapse known to American
politics as that which has overtaken the
effort of Dr. Leonard to drag the Metho-
dist church at the heels of.thc democratic
free whisky wagon.” ’ _ -
The result in Ohio shows that the more
the people try the democratic party the
less' they like it. It everywhere and on
every occasion proves its unfitness to
govern. Its childish agitation of the tariff
question in congress last session has given
us a prolonged sesson offibusiness stagna-
tion and business paralysis. The people
of Ohio have set the seal of condemnation
upon their destructive methods, and now
for, New York.

died in Monterey, California, where he and
his wife were staying, last week. He had
summoned a physician, not having felt
very well that morning, but on the arrival
of the doctor he was apparently in as good
health as ever. He made some jocular
remark to the doctor and almost immedia-
tely threw his hands over his head and
fellback unconscious. He was carried to
his rooms and restorativcs applied but in
less than three minutes life was extinct.
The cause of his death was apoplexy.

A Model Paper.
The Danbury ' Weekly News of last'week
contained a full account of the late Fair,
in number of illustrations lending addition-
al charm to the article. The premium
list was also printed in full. When the
News isn‘t enterprising it isn't anything,
and Danbury should be proud of the paper.
By the way. we wonder if the Fair man-
agers realize the debt they owe the News.
The Danbury Fair without the Danbury
News would be like a dog without a tail-—
useful, perhaps,and able to get about, but
decidedly incomplete. More than to any
other cause the Fair folks are indebted to
the News for the success which has atten-
‘ded them.

On Furlough.
Witha parting promise to “write up_
his trip and send it on,” the religious
editor bade his chief adieu, and, simply
but neatly clad, with his little satchel con-_
taining his other pair of socks and his
well thumbed'testamcnt, started off on
his furlough to waste his substance in
riotous living and the pursuit of happi-
ncss, followed by his chief’s bencdiction,.
of doubtful assurance, that “you needn’t
come back until you get good and ready.”
A journey up the Housatonic road is a
good beginning for a vacation trip. The
beauties of the far famed Housatonic
valley have been portrayed by many a
facile pen‘and dexterous pencil, and need
no introduction to the traveling or reading
public. All have seen, or read of the
gracefully winding river that follows the
railroad line from starting point to term-
inus, here flowing contentedly by its side,
there darting away like a playful colt and
hiding itself around a wooded hill, only
to appear again at the other side, ever and-
anon jumping over a cataract and shower-
ing itself with spray; of the jagged moun-
tains on either side, “rock-ribbed and
ancient as the sun ;” of the broad and
narrow valleys with their fertile fields
and; well tilled farms; 'of the peerless,
Berkshire Hills region, ”‘the Switzerland
of America,” which by its natural beauty
and the efforts of the railroad company,
brings thousands “of New York’s elite
society to spend each summer in. its invig-
~orating atmosphere. Lenox, the gem of
the Berkshire towns, being owned prin-
cipally by wealthy city folks, and enter-
taining such dignitaries as ex-Presidcnt
Arthur, Secretaries Endicott and Whitney,
the wealthy Fields, Editor Pulitzer of the
World, and other equally distinguished
personages.
The scenery at. this season is enchant-
ing, the swift moving panorama I present-
ing a series of kaleidoscopic changes, ever
the same, yet never alike, .and always
irresistible in its magnetic attractiveness,
very much like Ben. Sturges or “Dick"
Bouton in a uniformed Odd Fellows par-
ade.
Whirling up the valley after leaving
Danbury, famous for its big .fair, its big
yarns and its News man, We pass Brook-
ficld, equally famous for its want of a
depot and its squabble over the proper
location for one; on over green pastures,
beside still waters and undcr'dark bridges
to New Milford, where Bollcs, the Garret-
teer, bewails the “conflict of classes" iii
of the last legislature, is- laying up for
himself treasures on earth in the tobacco
business, and where ivory buttons, Con-
necticut seed leaf and stiff hats give em-
ployment to the “balance of power." On
again past locks and fields that recalled
to mind John Wade‘s yarn about his
vacation woodcliucking experience over
in Weston, and we come to Kent, which
enjoys The distinction of being one of the
trio of “Barnum’s pct towns,” (of which
Canaan and Salisbury are the others), an
appellation apparently not amiss when it is
known that these three towns were among
,the first inConnccticut to be recognized
by a change of postmastcrs after the
change of administration; up through
Cornwall, the land of shear factories,
where a political sweetmeat ill the shape
of a license ballot box stuffing scandal is
just now being mouthed upby the defeat-
ed no licensc folks; then to Lime' Rock,
' the home of ex-Senator Wm. H. Barnum
and State Senator M. B. Richardson, one
I of the prettiest and wealthiest little llam-
lets to be found in New England ; thence
up to Falls Village, where the locomotive
and repair works of the Housatonic rail-
road are located, and where, during the
rebellion, the celebrated Ames cannon
were made for the government, which
were not only pronounced by the home
government, but also by foreign powers,
superior to any other ordnance that could
at that time be procured. Six miles far-
ther north brings us to Canaan, the junc-
tion of the Housatonic' and Connecticut
Western roads, noted for his milk and
honey, hcr morality, and the “good men
and true" that she gives to the world.
Here we disembark from line “shortest,
quickest and best route,” etc., (to quote
from the pathetic announcement on the
Housntonic ”railroad time tables). with its
elegant, easy riding cars, its popular con-
ductors—you have read much, by' the
way, in the newspapers, about the popu-
lal-ity of the conductors on this line. They
impress traveling newspaper men not so
much by their personal bcnuty and the
elegantfit of their brass buttoned coats,
as by the expression of calm resignation
that o’erspreads their stern visagcd physi-
ognomy when a dead—head pass is stuck
under their nose. Those of them who
have not grown gray ill the service of the
road are the younger men who have not
grown gray at all. John Cole is the old-
est activc conductor on tile line, having
been connected with the road for over
thirty-five years. H. D. Thomas has
wielded the ticket punch for twenty years,
and although his whiskers are getting
frosty he has lost none of his old-time
- activity, and isapparcntly good for twenty
years more of the wearing and tearing life
on the rail. Clarke Lane’s enlistment in-
to the service dates back about equally
with Thomas’. and be is probably the-
most rugged and enduring man on‘ the
road. His regular daily run, the year
round, is double the length of the road,
a total of 220 miles a day. Then the
younger members of the punching fratern-
ity—Sid. Spencflér, Watt. Spencer, George
Browu and Charlie Rogers—have all been
been connected with the road for upwards
of ten years, and all enlisted early in their
teens.
At (‘auaan we “talk shop” in the News
office, inspect the hose house and band
room, and start west over the Conn-
Western road for the Hudson river, past
which, during the past summer, were
dotted with the camps of pleasure seekers
far and near; Camp Magoo, composed of
well-known Bridgepol-tcrs, being one of
tile most popular resorts for visitors.
Here the railroad company’s picnic grounds
are located, which have an extensive pat-
ronage from Sunday schools and worldly
organizations. Salisbury is next passed,
tllc home of err-Governor Holley and
Judge Warner. Here are located the‘
state school for imbecilcs, the Holley cut--
lcry works, and a Catholic convent. The
principal industry is ore mining; the ,
Salisbury iron car wheels, cast at the
foundry iii Lime Rock, being known the,
world over as “the best.” In the extreme
northwest corner of the town the bound—
ary lines of three states intersect, and at
this point one can stand in three states at
the same time—Connecticut, Massachu-
setts and New York. Passing state line
we glide swiftly through the splendid
scenery of Dutchcss and Ulster counties,
rich in fertile farms, and atEllerslie, some
ten miles east of the river, we catch our
first glimpse of the Catskills in the for dis-
tance, blue and hazy, but inspiring to the
traveler. High lip on one of the highest
peaks can be seen over twenty miles
away the glistening spires of the mammoth
Kaaterskill Hotel, said to be the largest
in the world, and the only hotel having
an Opera House for the entertainment of
guests. Farbclow, but still high up the
mountain side, can also be seen the Moun-
tain View House, a- world-renowned re-
sort. ' .
At Rhinecliif the noble Hudson is spread,

Kingston, reached by ferry from the east
side. Kingston is an old city of 23,000

Kingston at the corner of Clinton avenus

occupied by George Washington as head-
quarters during Revolutionary times—‘ ‘the
times that tried" men’s soulsJ' It was
erected by Colonel Wessel Ten Brocck in
1676. In this building the senator of the
state of New York was held in the year of

The Storrs’ Agricultural School.
I have lately visited a much neglected
Connecticut institution. the Storrs’ agri-
cultural school at Mansfield. This insti-
tiltiou is so unique and praiseworthy in
its objects, and offers such decided ad-
vantages to the sons of our citizens that I
am surprised it is so sparingly attended.
It must arise from misapprehension or
misunderstanding its methods and course
of study. There is no other school in this
country in which the best theoretical and,
practical methods of agriculture are taught
in combination, and instead of its twenty-'
five or thirty pupils it should have an'
hundred and thirty. - -
This school is the outgrowth of a
donation of land and money by Messrs.
Charles and Augustus Storrs. The build-
ings are comfortable, and the farm of 170
acres adjoining affords ample scope for
the practical side of agriculture, which is
so justly esteemed as the fitting supple-
ment to scientific and theoretical study.
To learn the why and wherefore of a thing
is of very little consequence, unless the
opportunity to do the thing itself is at
hand. In the Storrs’ ' school our sons
rcadilylcaru not only all the improved-
methods which science and chemistry
have developed during the last quarter of
a century, blit may also demonstrate by .the
actual tilting of the soil and growing crops
the truth of the teaching. The impression
made upon my mind by a visit to'tllis
school was its pro-eminent adaptability to
the events of the rising generation in
-Connccticut. We have come in this day
' to regard our agricultural interests'as
secondary, whereas in importance they
are first. But we cannot cultivate the
soil and make money out of our farming
in the old ways.
forbid competition with more favored
localities ill the staples on the old terms.
But if we introduce improved methods,
and throw aside the old time prejudices
against “fancy farming" (as it is errone-
ously called) we will find that the agricul-
tural products of the state, and hence the
wealth, may be doubled instead of dimin-
ished. As well migllt we adhere to. the
mowing our meadows by the scythe
alone, and rejecting the modern machin-
ery, as to stick to the old methods in
other things. The object of the _Storrs’
,agriculturnl school is to teach the newest
and best of everything in theory and prac-
tice, and iii my judgment one of the most
admirable features is found in the fact
that every theory has a practical .applica-
tion.
The location of the school is objected
to by some because it is so far from the
centres and from railroads. But this is
offset by the fact that the comparative
isolation severs many temptations and
secures f recdom|from interruptions. The
state has appropriated $5,000 annually
iuutil last year, when the sum was raised
to $7,000. This sum and the receipts for
board, tuition and farm produce. sold,sup-
ports tllc institution. The charges are
merely nominal being $25 per year, and
the actual cost of board, which, last year.
averaged less than $3.50 per week. The
total expenses of the school last year were
about $8,000, which is a marvel of econ-
professors are employed. The school is
ill charge of Professor B. F. Koons, M. A.,
assisted by John H.‘Wasliburn, professor
of chemistry, and L. P. Chamberlain, pro-
fessor of agriculture and horticulture.
The latter is also farm superintendent.
The course embraces the studies which
are peculiarly useful to young men who
contemplate a farmer’s life, viz :—General
and agricultural chemistry, natural philos-
ophy, botany, farm mechanics, zoology,
land surveying, human and animal physi-
ology, stock breeding,,milk production,
etc. Each student is required to study
these principles in the class room, and to
do from two to four hours out door work
on the farm.
The. attendance this season is about
twenty-five, hailing from every county in
the state. Last year there were only two‘
pupils from Fail'ficld county—one from
Saugntuck and one from Bedding Centre."

They are the sons of Connecticut, and
will have considerable influence upon her »

They are satisfied with their tasks, and
seemed thoroughly in earnest in seeking"
after the kind of knowledge which will fit
them for the higher duties of agricultural-

. Treasonl Treason It
The New Havenlkgia'ir thus pours its
sentiments of treason right into the face
and eyes of Connecticut’s ire-harmonious
democracy:— . - '.
The Administration of President Cleveland
and its efieetsyppn Connecticut politics, from.
a Connecticut s nd point, is a subject that is
being very seriously considered nowadays, and
is a subject which, if it is honestlyaml frankly
discussed, now and stance, may suggestu way
out of the very serious straits into i which
both the National and ‘Steiteiorganizajions are
rapidly drifting.~ We s eak conservatively and
. .we think, w an we say tllat'ltllo con-
dition of the party in this State is sachets to be .
Viewed with gravest anxiety. The old leaders,
those who have fun ht for a quarter of a could-
i-y for the success 0 democratic principles, are
disheaitencd, and the young men who. enrolled
themselves under the democratic banner be-
cause of the bright promiscs made a year and
a half ago in indorsing‘ the honest and progress-
ivo Democracy of the Cleveland kind are, to
put it mildly, disappointed. <
Ill the first place, one of the, most important
oflicos in the state, if not the most important
from a political standpoint, was conferred on a.
man who has not only been defeated by tho
party to which he professes allegiance, but
whose alleged conversion to its principles fol-
lowrnl a long career of opposition to its success
during which he maligne and'doi'amcd every
prominent leader of the arty, andJent him-
self to every means fun or fair, to wreck its
par use. A man w p was, opposedflo Clive-
an. and his policy, and whose advocacr of
Butler was prevented through Ioar alone of the
consequences.
The next blow came in the shape of the ap-
pointment of a non-resident of New Haven to
the Custom House over the heads of tried and
faithful Democrats, and in the very teeth of a
retest from the very man whose influence,
wealth and standing ill thecommuuity. made the
Dcmocracyot‘ the lid Disticf what it is. His
appoultnlents, many of them, have ustly in-
VIted adverse criticism, and one of t ism, that
very recently made, is not on] insulting to
every Democrat of” chara‘cter.‘ at what is far
worse, it hilt too plainly discloses thefact that
it was made upon the demand of the man al-

The upshot of all this, and much more which
we have not alluded td;‘is that the party 'in
Connecticut is in tho handsyof‘ a. ring of manip-
ulating, corru t olitici ns., A; ring whose
greed and acids mess, coin ined'witli its politi-
caldcpravity, is counteractinghoro in connec-
ticut oven-yisplcndjd achievement.“ the-.Ad-

This gentleman controlled or .is controlled,
thou h ol-hups uneonsciousl .so, byjthe. ring
to w licl we have alluded: . hcther he is as
ambitious as it is reported he'll, and whether
he thinks to make good unenfof the i'ing’s influ-
ences later on. we do rioblinoiv. That he loars
their supposed power would seem to be appar-
ent. Yet it in barely possible, from the rumors
that have from time ,to time gained circulation,
that he finds their methods conge'nial’; but as
to that we are not in a sitiou to judge. One
thing is certain, he is ,argoly, responsible for
and therefore, for the depraved condition into
which it has sunk. , . _ , , _ .
It must have been sorc disappointment
and blistering ‘cliagl'in that. inspires the
fits party manipulators and leaders. But
'if it is to be allowed to thus kick its indig-
n'anthecls into the face and eyes of such mu-
‘nificcnt “contributors. to the party’s funds
as the Hon. Wm..H. Barnum and Con-
gressman Charley Mitchell, what is the de-
mocracy going to do, when the next elec-
tion comes off. How is it going to. raise
“funds” to' conduct the temperance side-
show and the mugwump collection of cu-
riosities, as it so lavishly. did inithc late
Presidential campaign. .It is true that if
any two democrats in Connecticut, by rea-
son of long and faithfulscrviccs deserved
Presidential recognition, they were the
Hon. Wm. W. Eaton and Hon. James
Gallagher and it must .be very trying to
the average democrat to see them ig-
nored for such men as;havc been invited
'up to the public feed troughs in New Ha-
.ven. But Will this excuse the-Registers
treason to democratic principles? A
