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

public events. To fully meet such re-
quirements, we make the above liberal

THE STATE ELECTION,
AND OUR CANDIDATES.
Never since the days of BUCKINGIIAM
and the war time, has the republican party
presented for the suffrages of the people
a ticket of greater worth or more justly dc-
served popularity. Our candidate for gov-
ernor—
HON. PHINEAS C. LOUNSBURY,
is a worthy son of Connecticut, born in
grand old Ridgefield of revolutionary war
memories. In ability, character and per-
sonal deserving, he is the peer of any of
Connecticut’s long and illustrious line of
governors. His election will be an honor
and a benefit to our gallant little state.
The candidate for lieutenant-governor,
HON. JAMES L. HOWARD,
is also a man of high personal and busi-
ness character. Aman of devout religious
faith and convictions, as is Mr. Lounsbury,
and, like him, without cant, pretense or
bigotry. The remainder of our state
ticket is composed of men whom every
honest citizen, interested in the election
of honorable men, may well take delight
in voting for.
Our candidate for cengress, the
HON. FREDERICK MILES,
is a man the Fourth district delights to
honor. He has already served its people
wisely and well for two terms in the
national house of representatives with
great credit to our state and honor to
himself. He eminently deserves, and we
greatly mistake the temper of our vOters
if he is not a third time triumphantly
elected to represent us at Washington.
SAMUEL M’COUN,
Our candidate for county sheriff, is a
man well fitted by experience for the
delicate yet important duties of sheriff.
The first judgement of many was that Mr.
Strong of Bridgeport, would have received
a greater number of democratic votes, but
this we are assured is a great mistake and
our candidate is so far above the demo-
cratic nominee that no republican, at least.
should hesitate to earnestly work and vote
for his election. At his home in Stamford
where best known, he is most strongly en-
dorsed. ExSheriff Crosby pronounces him
one of his most capable and popular depu-
ties, while Mr. Strong is earnestly suppor-
ting him as is every republican who knows
him. Read what Stamford papers say.
The candidate for state senator in this,
the Thirteenth district. the
HON. EBENEZER J. HILL,
is a man in every sense deserving the
united and zealous support of every re-
publican voter in the district. He did
not seek the nomination, and it has come
to him without connivance on the part of
any over zealous friends, in {IIOIStl‘fllgllt
frank and manly way most agreeable to
men of his own open and zealous nature.
Mn. HILL especially deserves the most
hearty support of every Not-walk republi-
can, for no other citizen of his years has
done more for our town’s business pros-
perity and progress than be. His time,
his eneigy and his means have all been
zealously bestowed on every occasion
where Norwalk was to be benefitted. He
was the most active, earnest and indefa-
tigable worker in Norwalk’s behalf last
winter in the matter of the court house.
To him more than any other is our town
indebted for the new armory building.
Three times at least, to our knowlege, did
he visit Hartford at his own cost to urge
before the legislative committee, the ad-
vantages of locating this grand state edi-
To him more than to
,{x\‘
lice in our town.
any other is Norwalk indebted for the
annual appropriations we have received
for clearing our harbor from obstructions.
He has been our most active, practically
Useful and liberal member of the Norwalk
Board of Trade, and no man seems to see
so quickly as he, or execute as readily,
any or all plans for Our local growth and
_ town‘s improvement. He has never-been a
candidate fora political office before. He
has been our most efiicicnt member of the
Beard of Education for the past five years
and chairman of that board for the last
three. Not old enough to legally enlist
'l y. when the war broke out,lie nevertheless
rushed to the front and served as best he
could on staff duty with a brother who
gallantly gave up his young life in the
service of his country. He, like the head
of our ticket, is a mail of Christian prin-
ciple, a‘man of intensity of purpose, and
of an energy and will that conquers where
others fail, and had he been in our legis-
lature last winter when the court house
struggle “as on, our town would not
hive presented the humiliating specta-
cle of three sitting members from Nor.
walk and not a single soul of them able
to open his mouth in argument or appeal
for our just rights in that contest. Such
briefly are the strong points in the strong
individuality of our candidate for senator.
But it is not of MR. HILL alone, or of his
personal triumph at the polls that we
would chiefly speak. By and through the
senator this district shall send to Hartford
will a vote he cast—and that vote possibly
the one only required—which shall return
that gallant hero of the war, General Joe
Hawley, to the senate of the United States,
or place in his seat Mr. Wm. H. Barnum
with all his political sins thick upon his
head. The same is true, and of equally
momentous import as to the men to be
elected representatives in the lower house
of our state legislature. No fair-minded,
true and patriotic republican will allow
any considerations of personal preference
or dislike to withhold a single vote from
the Legislative ticket, in an exigency like
the present, where a United States senator
hinges on the result. REPUBLICANS of
Norwalk, of the county and state, work
then resolutely, vote early and with honest
fidelity the whole republican ticket, and if
you domictmu/will be ours on surely as the
November sun shall set on the night of
this our most important state election.
Organize and battle in solid column
against the enemies of protection, of a
sound currency and a sound government,
and then shall we rejoice as we did in the
days of the war, when a victory over
armed traitors in the field was a sure
precursor of a victory over their aiders,
abettors and sympathizers in the rear.
And may the right triumph.
HON. ASA B. WOODWARD,
Is our candidate for Judge of Probate. It
is a non partisan office and Judge Wood;
ward needs no introduction to the voters
of this probate district of either party.
GEORGE T. BRADY,
Is our first and third district candidate for
Representative.-—-A strong and popular
man, worthy to win, as he will. The 2d
district has not yet nominated.

Our Contemporaries.
The Portchester Journal came outlast
week in its new winter dress, and a pretty
frock it is, too. The paper is now printed
entirely at home, and is prettier than ever.
There have been in the past, several at-
tempts to establish a newspaper in Milford,
all of which have proven fruitless. Mil-
ford seems to be a newspaper burying
ground. The latest daring spirit to tempt
fates in that direction is Mr. W. S. Hock-
cnberry,who has just started The Opinion.
We. remember Hoekenberry as an old
neighbor on the Winsted News some years
ago, and feel safe in saying that if any-
body can make a paper live in Milford,
Hockenberry is the huekleberry to do it,
and it is our private opinion that his pub-
lic Opinion will deserve respect.
The Republibaninsists that it has “come
to stay” despite the assertion of Prohibi-
tionist Bailey that it will sleep beneath the
daisies before 1888.
Local Editor John H. Wade spent Sun-
day in Newark, N. J,, where his wife is
visiting friends.
The Hartford Telegram is now printed
from new type,on a good quality of paper.
Typographically it is now a clean sheet.
The Hartford Post’s annual supplement
with portraits and biographies of the re-
publican state candidates, is out. The
Post is eminently deserving of the high
reputation it enjoys for enterprise.

Mr. E. J. Hill.
5 Our candidate for Senator will make
an earnest, manly and honorable effort to
be elected, and he deserves the aid and
assistance of every loyal, fair minded
voter professing regard for republican
principles. Every laboring men should
vote for him, because he is the friend of
labor and laboring man and believer in
protection to all home industries. Every
professed friend of prohibition and tem-
perance should vote for him, because he
is and has ever been personally a practi-
cal tcmperancc man, and will if elected,
vote and work for a bill submitting to the
people, the question of prohibition and no
political prohibitionist, if elected to
the Legislature from this town (as he can
not he) could do more. A vote for HILL
is a vote for HAWLEY, therefore let not a
single vote be lost to him. This is a very
close district, the most so perhaps of any
in the state and one vote may determine
whether our senator for this district shall
cast his vote for HAwLEr or Barnum.
——<+>———
IBolt Him!
It is very evident that the spirited dem-
ocratic Stamford Herald is not favorable
to the election of E. Spicer Cleveland as
governor of Connecticut. Well, there are
some dosesthat even the democratic stom-
uch cannot endure, and Spicer Cleveland
is one of them. This is a specimen brick
for the last Herald and it is only of a char-
acter of much of the same sort one sees
and hears from democratic sources:—
.“The friends of Mr Cleveland claim for
him a wonderful magnetism, which is the
great secret of his popularity among the
poor and laboring men. It must be per-
sonal, for it is not intellectual. If to kiss
dirty “swankees” regardless of how they
are presented for oscillation, and guzzle
corn juice indifferent to quality or meas-
ure, is evidence of mental magnetism and
statesmanship. the democratic savants of
New Haven. chose a Tallyrand and an iii-
tcllectual giant to pave the way for some
“consolidated" autocrat to succeed our
present U. S. Senator in Congress. But
unfortunately for “the best laid schemes
of ‘rats’ and men,” sober self-respected
and self-respecting people who have a
proper regard for the honor of the state,
will pause before accepting such humilia
ting conditions.”
.——————<§>———~—<
Supt. Bishop for Senator.
Henry A. Bishop, superintendent of the
Housatouic railroad, is the democratic
nominee for Senator from the 14th dis-
trict, and will undoubtedly be elected.
He is a young man, not yet 26, and dis-
tinguished himself in the House last ses-
sion by his successful fire-cracker bill. In
his speech of acceptance he pledges him-
self, if elected, to keep an eye peeled and
single to Bridgeport’s interests,regardlessE
of his railroad associations.

Edward F. Meeker was yesterday ap-
pointed post master at Bridgeport, vice J.

lyc succeeds John Tweedy at Danbury;
Lucius M. Monroe succeeds S. Y. St.John

ceeds S. M. Shipman at Deep River.
Barnum is at work.
Al it Should be.
A reliable democrat and a citizen of
Ridgefield, informs us that practically
there will be but one ticket for governor
voted for in that town next Tuesday. That
every respectable democrat so far as he
knows will cast his vote for Lounsbury.

The “Spoils Party.”
Enrron or Gazsrrsz—duriug the recess
of Congress in 1829 thus were 176 remov-
als from office. .For‘forty years previous
to that,under all-previous presidentsfihél'e
had been only seventy-four (74) removals.
N 0 country ever experienced greater finan-
cial distress thauours in 1837. Geo. Jack-
son was a republican in 1824. _In 1829 the
cry was for “Jackson democracy,” which
has been called - “Loco Foeo,” “Albany
Regency,” "‘Spoils Party," and “Destruc.
five Party.” Defalcations,such as Price’s,
Swartwout’s and many others, for many
millions, occurred under this modern de-
mocracy. The whole aim of modern de-
mocracy seems to be to get 0171‘“: and de-
stroy every good work. We have only
time to refer to our own section. Take
our own Congressional dristrict: Mr. Sey-
mour was the most upright and capable
man, that modern demoerncy cvcr sent to
Congress from this district. He was an
honor to our state, but he lacked the de-
structive principles required by the“Spoils
party,” and consequently he was iguomin-
eously thurst aside. Let us be thankful
that the republicans have nominated Mr.
Miles, who can creditably fill Mr Sey-
mour’s place in Congréss. Can it be pos-
sible that the suicidal act of the “Spoils
Democracy” in dropping Mr.Seymour can
have any other result than the certain
election of Mr. Miles. Certainly it should
not. Our adjoining town of Westport, is
the “banner town” of pure spoils democ-
racy" in this section, and we learn from
some of its citizens that they have carried
out to greater perfection the doctrines of
the “destructive party” than any other
town in the state. This town’s advantages
for location, its beautiful river and won-
derfully productive soil are unexcelled
by any town in the state. No Connecticut
town can boast so large a surplus of fruits
or vegetables as Westport, yet it is the
hindermost in improvements and for no
other reason than that its town affairs are
under the government of the f ‘destructive
party.” All its best citizens are disgusted
and disheartened at the miserable “spoils
party” management connected with an at-
tempt to repair their bridge. The demo-
cratic town authorities contracted to build
a new draw some two months ago, just at
the timethe farmers were coming in with
their loads of products to ship to New
York. It is said that three stones only are
laid in the new foundation, and there is
no certainty the draw will be completed
in a twelve month. It was promised to
be completed on the 15th of this month.

The Sheriffalty.
As a rule the county papers seem to be
a little taken aback at the nominee of the
republican county convention for sheriff.
This is partly due, no doubt, to the fact
that Deputy McCoun is not so well known
throughout the county as Messrs. Strong
and Crosby,or some others, whose chances
had been canvassed in advance. But the
fact that the nomination was wholly un-
expected, cxcept by a few,and that it was,
perhaps, brought about as much by the
insistance of a few influential friends in the
convention as by the spontaneous action
of that body, has nothing to do with the
fitness of the candidate for the office, and
should create no prejudice against him
in the minds of candid voters. The fact
is that in many respects Mr. MeCoun is
particularly well qualified for just such
an office. He has ability and shrewdness;
he is honest and pays his bills like a man,
and would administer the business of the
position with scrupulous fidelity and econ-
omy. That he is not so widely known in
the county as some of the other candidates
before the convention, is, we repeat, no
disqualification. He was born in New
York city in 1831, and is therefore a man
of mature middle age. His father was a
native of Oyster Bay, Long Island, having
descended from some of the first white
settlers who occupied that territory. Most
of his early years were spent in New York,
and for the last twenty or twenty-five
years he. has been a resident and citizen
of this town. He served as deputy under
Sheriff Crosby in a manner to win the re-
gard and approval of his superior ofilcer
from first to last. For ten years or more
he has been annually elected a constable
'-. of the town on the republican ticket, us-
gually obtaining a vote far in excess of the
party strength—Advocate.
“Counin Ben.”
President Cleveland has just given
“Cousin Ben.” Folsom, the lucrative Shef-
field Consulatc, for several years filled by
that able and experienced commercial and
consulor expert,C. B. Webster of Norwich,
Conn. Simple minded democrats of the
New York Worlrl order arejhighly incens.
ed at this repeated attempt at “nepotism”
on the part of their President- The
World lays :
“President Cleveland has rather sur-
prised the country by appointing Benj.
Folsom, the cousin of his wife, to the fat
Slieflield Consulship. The President is a
man of marked austerity of character. He
can reject the claim of a Jacksonian dem-
ocrat for a small ofiice,who has served the
party faithfully for forty years, with firm-
ness, but there are some kinds of human
weakness that touch public sympathy.
The care of relatives at public expense may
be said te be one of them. Mr. Cleveland
may go back on his friends, but he cannot
Well neglect his relatives. The appoint-
ment of brother-in-law Bacon as Collector
at Toledo and the giving of a snug Federal
place to a nephew at Cleveland, 0., show
that the President has a warm and tender
heart. He is not the cold, unyielding,
ascetic man that some of his enemies have
painted him.” -.'
-—-~—CO
' Witty Amos Cummings, of the Sun, has
accepted the nomination for the office of
representative in congress tendered him
NY the democrats of the Sixth district of
cw York. In his speech to the conven-
ti_on he said: “As a boy I worked in this
district as a journeyman printer. I have
belonged to Typographical Union, No. 6,
for twenty-six jyears. I have worked at
my trade in near yevery state in the Union,
and I never worked below union rates.
From this district I enlisted as a volunteer
in 1862. Here I live and have lived for a
quarter of a century. Workingmen will
know where to find me on questions in
which they are interested, in congress. I
believe that capital has its rights as well as
labor,and neithershould be jeopardized by
hasty legislation.”
The Whirligig of time brings about
strange results, and politics makes stran e
bed-fellows. A few years ago, Robert .
Clarkson was a radical Know-nothing.
Today he is a Democratic nominee for
sheriff, and solicits the Irish and German
votes to elect him.—Stamford Comet.
