SPECIAL NOTICE l
25 cts. to January 131:. 1887.

The GAzs'I'rn will be sent to any new
subscriber during the remainder of the
current year for 25cts cash in advance.

The coming State, Congressional, Coun-
ty, Town and Borough Elections, with the
assembling of Congress in December, will
crowd the remaining weeks of the year
with news of unuasual interest, and every
voter at least, should keep himself thor-
oughly posted as to passing and pressing
public events. To fully meet such re-
quirements, we make the above liberal

offer.
—-————-——4.>———-—-—

Local Candidates.

The local list of candidates for republi-
can nominations, to be voted for in No-
vember, has not materially changed since
our last.

For state senator MI!- E. J. HILL seems
to have the field all to himself, and, if
nominated, as all seem to concede he will
be, he will make a gallant fight for an
election, and it will be no “easy walk
over" for his opponent.

For representatives we still hear Mr.
George W. Cram, Charles Olmstead, Geo.
T. Brady and Justice Andrew Selleck dis-
cussed as leading candidates, with the
chances favorable to Brady's receiving the
nomination, although it is known that he
neither seeks or desires that honor. At
South Norwalk we have only heard the
names of “Mat.” Corbett, Dudley P. Ely
and Tallmadge Baker mentioned as pos-
sible candidates,with neither of them hav-
ing any particular desire for the nomina-
tion. Republican sentiment there, has
not crystalized.

Our democratic friends will, no doubt,
rcnominate HON. Asa SMITH for senator.
His flue run before clearly entitles him to
this compliment of a renominatiou. For
representative the senator’scousin, Stephen
Henry Smith, is said to be quite sure of a
nomination. He certainly deserves it for
the lively race he ran for town treasurer if
for nothing else. He is moreover a gentle-
man and possessed of far more ability than
the average run of Smiths. At South
Norwalk it seems conceded that “Ed.”
Smith will be run again, though Jerry
Donovan has not yet been consulted as
to the matter. If “Ed.” runs the local
democratic legislative ticket will be pretty
strongly tinctured with Smiths.

son snanrrr.

The democrats have certainly made
about the weakest nomination possible for
them to make in Mr. Robert L. Clarkson,
of Stratford, and it is a lucky circumstance
(in view Of the not very much stronger
nomination made by our friend Fesscuden
of Samuel MeCoun, of Stamford), that
they selected Clarkson. Had Dana been
the dem“cratic candidate we should havo
been whipped from the start, but now we
have the best end of the rope. Wallace
Dann came within two votes of Clarkson,
and as a candidate could probably beat
any republican that could be named, other
than Selectman Strong, of Bridgeport,
whom,we don’t hesitate to say, ought to
have been nominated. But MeCoun can
and must beat Clarkson.

Poor Dann has now a chance to see
who his friends were. There were two
men in this town that day, for whom
Dann has worked in season and out and
nearly run his legs Off to elect, either one
of whom could have secured the needed
votes, but neither were at hand, though
we hear it stated they had promised to be
there. Then the five votes squandered
on our friend Sherman Morchouse, of
Wilton, had they gone to Dann would
have nominated him, but we republicans,
of course, are duly thankful to him and
his friends that this wasn’t done. As it is
it is bound to be a mediocre battle with
the chances in favor of our republican
candidate.

For congress the venerable Judge Gran.
ger has little show in a politicallcontest
with Hon. Fred Miles.

For governor, HON. P. C. LOUNsnuar, a
christian gentleman in the highest and
best sense of that word is, as everybody
knows to their disgust, a candidate for
governor of Connecticut against E. Sricsn
CstnLAND, who to speak of as kindly as
possible is notoriously unworthy a position
Of such dignity.

To Represent the Flag He Hates.

Dabney H. Maury, who was reappointed
yesterdav Minister to Columbia, was prac-
tically rejected by the Senate at its last
session. The nomination was hung up
in the Senate Foreign Relation Committee,
Maury was dismissed from the regular
army in 1881 for treason. He left the
army and joined the Confederacy soon
after the outbreak of the war. It was
claimed at that time that he remained in the
regular army long enough to get valuable
information which he sent South. Charges
were preferred against him and he fled
South before he could be arrested.

His nomination was “hung up" in the
Senate, because Of certain alleged remarks
made a few weeks before his appointment
last July, regarding the American flag.
This was to the effect that he still preferred
the Confederate banner and was willing
to fight under it again if necessary. This
remark was communicated to Senator
Sherman by the persons present. It called
forth a correspondence which proved con.
clusively that this was the reason the Sen-
ate did not take action in the case. The
committee would have rejected the nomi-
nation had it come up, and as it was not
long until adjournment it was thought
best to let it terminate without making a
report.

Hon. Phineas O. Lounsbury.
“An honest man is the noblest work of

God.”
How irresistibly the above words of

Pope come to the mind as one looks upon
the honest, manly face of our republican
candidate for governor of the gallant,
patriotic little state of Connecticut. The
artist has given us an exceptionally good
likeness Of MB. Lounsnunx, and we are
confident that our intellectual and honest
voters will rejoice in the opportunity to
cast their ballots for him and greet him
as common. ,
W
The Democratic Sheri! Convention.
Early Monday evening the Bridgeport
delegation led by ye bold Phelan and De-
puty Sheriff Leonard as the advanced
guard of the Clarkson men registered at
the Mahackemo Hotel, and were followed
shortly after by the liquor contigement,
who were to act as flankers. They soon
made a convert of the colored bartender
who shouted loudly for Clarkson, (but he
can’t vote.) The air was soon thick with
the vile odor Of onions, poor rum and
cigars. Finally the smell became so bad,
that a delegate fainted away, and some
one cried out, “For G—ds sake i get some
water." The word water immediately
brought him to, and ,in a voice tremulous
with emotion he said “B‘ycs do yez want
to kill me ?" and then relapsed into insen-
sibility. Finally Bill Glover said “whis-
key!” As if by magic the prostrate man rose
up with a bound. By this time the stench
was terrific, parlors was filled with it, the
engineer was driven from his boilers, the
cooks fled in dismay from the kitchen, the
chambermaids ran affrighted from the
building, “Pill," the drug store dog, gave
up the ghost without a struggle, the elec-
tric light burned dimly, and a committee
of the boarders waited upon the landlord
to inquire what it all meant, and the clerk
informed them, ’twas the delegates to the
democratic county convention. They then
held a council of war to see what should
be done, and the result of their delibera-
tions, was that in a short time men could
be seen picking out soft spots on the tin
roof, while other plunged madly for drug
stores and in a short time the price of
chloride of lime had risen alarmingly, but
like all things, such things must end, and
end they did by the delegates retiring.
About 4:30 a. m, a terrible noise was
heard, proceeding from the room occu-
pied by Tom Bristol. Some said ’twas a
quake; others that the boiler had explod-
ed. Upon investigation ’twas found that
Tom had abad attack of nightmare. It

. l
seems at supper Tom called for Ice cream,

and was promptly served with a dish; he
looked at it a moment, said to himself,
“That looks fine,” he then took a mouth-
ful, chewed it silently a moment, reached
down, looked around to see if any one ob.
served him, took hold of his coat tails and
spit the mouthful in his pocket; his face
grew red, the veins stood out on his forc—
head, and in a voice filled with terror and
rage, he said, “I am poisoned!” State
Central Committeeman Houlihan who sat
near him hastened to the ufirighted man
and inquired what was the matter. Tom
again repeated, “I’m poisoned." “What
makes you_; thing so?" says Houlihan.
"Because," says Tom, "the ice cream is
sour and some cussed Dunn delegate has
put up this job on me,” and Houlihan, be-
ing the ,coolest man in the party,proceeded
to investigate. One look at the cream was
enough; Houlihan began to roar. Tom
with a face of chalky hue, and teeth chat-
tering with terror, says, “Who-at ails
yo-u ?” “Sour ice cream," says Houlihan.
“Why you blasted idiot, not to known pot
cheese from'lbe cream," the joke was out;
the waiter by mistake took hold of the
wrong plate and brought poor Tom pot
cheese instead of cream.

Once more all hands retivd and slept
soundly until late next morning, then a
further talk with the colored bartender
(to make sure of his conversion,) and all
hands wended their way to Music hall.

Promptly at 11 o’clock Chairman Tooker
called the convention to order, and some
one suggested they had better leave open
the doors and windows. In a few minutes
mysterious looking bundles began to be
carried out and after repeated efforts
'twas found out that all the bundles were
being carried to MeEwen, the hatter, and
that they were hats going to the factory
to be stretched. Upon an explanation be-
ing asked for, was told a great many be-
fore starting bought new hats and in the
hurry and confusion they got just one size
too small, hence they must have them
stretched. By this time convention was
ie working order. At this stage of the
proceedings the irrepressible Phelan ' of
Bridgeport bobbed up and moved that the
names of the different candidates be
brought before the convention for discus—
sion. Mr. Phelan was loaded clear to
the muzzle with a speech in favor of his
candidate, and we sadly wonder if any
part of his speech, contained that Iittlc
short history Of Mr, Clarkson,. wherein
1875 be contributed and worked to the
defeat of the democratic representative
in his town. These are facts and can be
substantiated by ex-Deputy Sheriff Bar—
tram of Stratford, the post—master of that
town, and a gentleman by the name of
Smith, who were at the convention and
freely circulated the above, and stated
that they came here for that purpose, and
wanted to show up Clarkson's record as
not being a fit candidate for sheriff, and
it iooks very bad for any candidate whether
democrat or republican to have his allegi—
ance to his party questioned, and the
worse when three gentlemen of unques-
tionablne respectability come from a candi-
date’s own town to a convention to use a
slang phrase to show him up as-not being
a fit man for sheriff, it shows the candi-
date as being weak, and in all probability
he can and will be easily defeated and to
make matters worse the way the liquor
element worked and boomed Clarkson is
enough to make all decent democrats sick
and to-day all through the county they
are awfully sick.

After Mr. Phelan had stated his motion
it having been duly seconded, Chairman
DeForest brought it before the convention
and Mr. Phelan was promptly sat upon.
A motion was then made to take an in-
formal ballot. It was so voted, and bal-
lotiug began.

ing result:

Morchousc, 3

, Total, 69
The chairman then announced thatRob—,
crt L. Clarksou was nominated.
Phelan of Bridgeport moved that his
nomination be made unanimous by a ris-
ing vote, about one half arose. Usually
as a compliment, a unanimous vote is
given. The delegates know Mr. Clarkson
was a weak candidate and probably for
that reason they would not make his nom-
ination unanimous.
Had the democrats scanned the state
they could not have selected a poorer can- .
didate,and today the republican party can
thank the liquor men for throwing the
election into their hands.

EN DORSEMEN TS.

From Rev. Dr. Porter, President of Yale College.

Yule. College, New Haven, Conn.

1 have been accustomed to consult Appleton’s Ameri-
can Cyclopwdiu for many years. and have been uni-
fornly satisfied with the information which I have
found it to contain.
The changes and additions in the lust edition uclcl
greatly to its value, and 1 can confidently recommend
it as an excellent work.

From Hon. George Bancroft, the Historian,
Washington, D. C.

Ifincl flpplcton’s flmcricun Cyclopazoliu (It most convc»
nicnt, comprehensive, and trustworthy book of reference.
It treats the greatest variety of subjects, and always
with candor, and is singularly rich in all that relates
to America. Its scientific articles hit the happy medium
between too little technicality, and too much of it. The
best authorities of England and the Continent of
Europe, especially France - and Germany, have muni-
festly been consulted with unceasing industry.

From President Cummings, of Wesleyan.

I regard The flmcrioun Cyclopwdiu as a wonderful
work. It is recommended and endorsed by many of the
ablest and conscientious scholars of the country. It is
worthy of the attention of all who desire a reliable,
carefully prepared, and well arranged epitome of
