NORWALK GAZETTE.
Tuesday. Nov. 10, 1885.
The Speaker-shin.
Now that the election is over and the
republicans have a majority, even though
largely reduced, in both branches of the
legislature, candidates for the speakership
are cropping out in several sections of the
state. The two names most prominently
mentioned are John A. Tibbetts of New
London and H. W. R. Hoyt of Greenwich.
Both aie able men and would ably fill the
position of speaker. Both are good men
and both are popular in their respective
localities. In Mr. Hoyt’s favor is the fact
that Fairtleld county has of late years been
severely snubbed by‘ the eastern part of
the state and has in many respects been
left out in the cold. And the plea, admit-
tedly strong, is made that the time has
now come to recognize the county and
satisfy the somewhat disgruntled republi-
cans at this end of the state.
On the other hand Mr. Tibbetts has a
strong backing because of his well known
executive-ability. In the state convention
in ’84 he handled the large, and at times
unruly audience with a skill and diploma-
cy which challenged admiration from
even his opponents. And no one who
was present at that convention can deny
that if chosen speaker he wouid preside
with brilliancy and impartiality.
And adding to this the fact that in that
convention Mr. Tibbetts was one of the
strongest supporters of P. C. Lounshury
for Governor, and we have a plea for Mr.
Tibbetts which will undoubtedly gather
him large support from this coubty‘s rep- -
resentation at Hartford.
We think Fairfield county can afford to
yield the speakership this year. And
while feeling the utmost respect gnd
friendship for Mr: Hoyt, we urge Mr. Tib-
bolts for the place- , .

A Railroad Note
The New York Tribune of Friday con-
tained the following item of railroad newsz'
Maps were filed in the clerk’s office in Go-
shen, yesterday by the New England, and
Seuthwestern railway company, signed by
ChaunceyVibbard, president, and William
V.Smith, chief engineer covering their line
of road from a junction with the Erie
Railroad Greycourt Branch, crossing the
Hudson River at Storm King Mountain
and making connection with the New York
and New England and Harlem roads at
Brewster, New York. _ This link gives a
direct short all-rail route from the coal
fields of Pennsylvania and the cotton fields
of the South to the New England states
and will shorten the route from Memphis
to New England states over 200 miles and
will give the Erie road a haul on its entire
line on eastern trafllc, instead of deliver.
ing its eastern trafic to other roads at
Biughampton. The bridge over the Hud-
son will be 225 feet high. It is estimated
that this connection will give the Harlem
read 2,000,000 tons of coal to haul for the
city of New York and the north. Work
will be begun at an early day.
A dispatch from Taunton, Mass, says
that the contract for the bridge over the
Hudson has been awarded to the Phoenix
bridge company.

"And all the Lies they tol ."
It seldom falls to the lot of any reputa—
ble citizen to be lied about so by the whole-
sale as was Mr. Allen Betts the republican
candidate for representative. He ,was
charged with favoring seven cents an hour
for the laboring‘man; with having voted
for a bill disfranchising any man whose
misfortune had compelled him to accept
aid from the town; for disfranchising all
not worth $300 of taxable property and
with having voted for St. John last fall in-
stead of James G. Blaine. It is needless
to say that every one of these stories,
which were so industriously spread by
men who ought to be ashamed of such
mendacity, were false in every particular.
The lie that lost Mr. Betts the most repub-
lican votes was the one that he refused to
vote for Blaine. Mr. Betts is a practical
and consistent temperance man, but he
was not such an idiot as to join the free
whiskey, democratic side-show run by St.
John.

A Prohibition Candidate.
The prohibitionists of the 19th senato—
rial district nominated Freddie E. Egle-
ston of Falls Village as the attraction of
their democratic side show last Tuesday.
He was the amateur editor of the late am-
ateur Item and is now interesting himself
in amateur politics—particularly amateur
prohibition. He would have made an ex-
citing amateur senator. If, in the dim
vista of the unread future, there should
at any time dawn upon his intellect a ra-
tional idea of the enormity of the joke of
his ”nomination" and his sober, innocent
acceptance of it in such confiding good
faith, what a torrent of self abuse, and
shattering of confidence will be there, my
countrymen!

A crowded tawn house Saturday p. m.,

the meeting adjourned with more evidence
than ever that the selectmen are expected
to execute promptly the town vote for this
improvement.

Random Ramblings.
‘ BY ROSIE ROWE, OUR RANDOM RAMBLER.
I observe from a perusal of the Norwalk
society correspondence in the New York
World of last Sunday that “Mr. Wm. H.
Earle and wife, society leaders, with the
assistance of Dr. Many and the Beattys,
expect to have a brilliant season.” Good.
With such leadership, and such assistance,
surely the brilliaucy of the society season
must dazzle and twinkle with no uncer-
tain twink. For in that sphere the flash
of diamonds must needs glance and
waver from the scintillations of keen and
lofty wit.
‘ a * a -
Now that roller skating'is again occupy
ing a considerable portion of the attention
of the young people throughout the
country, we shall probably hear more
horrified protests from the religious press
and the sensational pulpit, and the whine
of the pessimistic puritan will be heard in
the land, enumerating a frightful category
of the sins and iniquities of the world,
the flesh and devil, that may, can, must,
might, could,‘would or should result from
the baleful influence of the rink. And
this whine will carry conviction too, par-
ticularly if it can cenvict the skating rink
of causing the never ending chapter of
unsavory scandals and licentiousncss re-
corded daily against parson as well as
people, and in seasons and places where
rinks never existed.

Ellen Terry and Rose Elizabeth Cleve-
land wear their hair short, and, of course,
the army of fashion’s votaries, who ape
the chief lady of the land as their patron
saint havealsocorueoutcropped. It's a,
heathenish freak in most instances. The
crowuing glory of woman is her wealth of
hair, and the flummery offashion that
demands it’s sacrifice is a humbug, Ellen
Terry, Rose Cleveland, or apy otherr
bobbed'crankalctte to the contrary not-‘
withstanding. : - ‘ . - ‘

If there-is anything I detest it is gum
chewing. Especially among young ladies.
I chanced to be in a street car coming up
from South Norwalk the other day, when
two real pretty young ladies got aboard.
They were handsome in feature and en-
gaging in manner. But they chewed
gum, and that spoiled their attractiveness.
They talked intelligently, even profound:
1y, on topics of interest; but that incessant
and “chklop, chklop,” with which their
conversation was copiously polka-dotted,
seemed to paralyze its logic as well as its
euphony. The habit of tobacco chewing
among men is a hoggish accomplishment
at the best, but contrasted with gum
chewing on the part of young ladies it is
the very concentration of strained refine—
ment. ‘

A Proclamation.
The American people have always
abundant cause to be thankful to Almighty
God, whose watchful care and guiding
hand have been manifested in every stage
of their daily life, guarding them and pro—
tecting them in the time of peril and safely
leading them in the hour of darkness and
danger. It is fitting and proper theta
nation thus favored should on one day in
every year, for that purpose cspecrally
appointed, publicly acknowledge the
oodness of God, and return thanks to
im for His gracious gifts. Therefore I,
Grover Cleveland, Presrdent of the Umted
States of America, do hereby designate
and set apart Thursday, the 26th day of
November instant, as a day of public
thanksgiving and prayer, and do invoke
the observance of the same by all the
people of the land. On that day let all
the people assemble in their usual places
of worship and with prayers and songs of
praise devoutly testify their gratitude to
the giver of every good and perfect gilt
for all that He has done for us in the year
that has passed; for our preservation as a
.from the shock and .danger of political
convulsion; for the blessings of peace and
fur our safety and quiet, while wars and
rumors of wars have agitated and afflicted
the other nations of the earth; for our
security against the scourge of pestilence,
which in other lands has claimed its dead
by thousands and filled the streets
with mourners ; for plenteous crops, which
reward the labor of the husbandmau and
increase our nation's wealth, and for the
contentment throughout ' our borders.
which follows in the train of prosperity
and abundance. And let there also be on
the day thus set apart a reunion of families,
sanctified and chastened by tender memo-
ries and associations, and let the social
intercourse of friends with pleasant rc-
miniscences renew the ties of affection
and strengthen the bonds of kindly feel—
ing; and let us by no means forget, while
we give thanks and enjoy the comforts
which have crowded our lives, that truly
grateful hearts are inclined to deeds of
charity, and that a kind and thoughtful
remembrance of the poor will double the
pleasures of our condition and render
raise and thanksgivin more acceptable
in the sight of the Lor .
Done at the city of Washington, this
second day of November, one thousand,

in e endence of the nited States the one

He Took the Rum, His Wife the Ten.
The Sun says: J. 13. Cleveland of
Oneouta, N. Y. has a letter in his posses-
sion which was written by the Rev. Aaron
Cleveland of Norwich,Coun. in Revolution-
ary days to his brother, Capt. Stephen
Cleveland of Salem, Mass. Capt. Cleve-
land wus the first officer of that rank com.-
missioncd in the United States Navy, July
23, 1770, the document being signed by
Benjamin Franklin. The father of the
Captain was an intimate fricnd'of Franklin,
at whose house in Philadelphia he died
while on a visit there on Aug. I, 1776.
The writer of the subjoiued letter was the
great-great-graudfather of President Gro-
ver Cleveland, and the letter itself is of in-
terest, not merely for its authorship, but
for the light it reflects on the olden times.
It is reproduced verbatim:
.: » Nonwrou, Ct., May 1_, 1780.
DEARBROTHER: II rec’d your kind favor
by Capt. Lord, who advised me to send
back the rum and su, or and by no means
‘rcceive it, as you wil uIly omitted sending
the third ingredient, without whrchpunch
could not be made—but as a. Prlze has
since arrived at New London With aplenty
of lemons I shall c’cn conclude to keep
'whnt you sent me. Indeed, my friend
Lord advised me todo so for the above
reason. I should, however, be glad to
know in your next whether the sugar is to
go with the rum or tea, as a dispute arises
betwixt my wife and myself about _tlrc
matter. . Wc readily agree that the spmts
was for my use, and the ten for hers—the
sugar I am willing to divide, but she says
twill spoil the shape of the leaf, and by my
weighty argument-—But not to trifle, I ex-
act to convey Aunt Porter to Boston the
utter end of this month, and if mother has
a mind to come up here I wish she would
be at Mr. Higginson’s as I don’t expect to
o myselffiotherwise I could fetch her from
alcm. I shall send by some good band——
