There is one place where the Democratic

In Norwalk, Connecticut, in the ancient
burial-place an old gravestone marks the
spot where licmouldering the mortal re-
mains of Reverend chcdiuh Buckingham.
The name of the clergyman has been rcs-
cued from the oblivion in which it had
been buried for nearly two Couturies, un-
til recently; but, by an antiquarian paper
read at Princeton, New Jersey, on Sep-
tember 28th, last, the memory of that
young and ardent minister of the gospel,
of a distinguished New England family,
is perpetuated. A new chapter to the
initial history of the first church of the
Oranges of New Jersey, now one of the
largest of the Presbyterian synod of the
state, was added by the name of
‘ Rev. J cdediah Buckingham of the Newark
mountains, which had been lost to the
ecclesiastical annals of New Jersey but
for the labor of Dr. Stephen Wicks, of
Orange-7E. H. Lee, in Stamford Herald.
Mr..James H.0lmstcad, of Stamford,
related some “good news" to the Demo-
cratic delegates, assembled in convention
at Bridgeport one day last week
concerning the “glorious Democratic vic-
tory” in his native town. A study of the
returns, as published in the Ridgefield
Press, fail to show such a cheering outlook
for the Democracy of that historic town.
It is true that two Democratic selectmen
were elected for the first time in many
years. but the party vote, as shown by
the official figures. is quite satisfactory to
the Republicans. The offices of registrar
of voters and auditor are fairly good
guides to the strictly party vote. The
Democratic candidate for registrar re—
ceived 91 and the Republican candidate
for the same ofilce 139 votes; the Demo-
cratic auditor received 92 votes, and the
Republican auditor 138. Where does the
“good news" come in ?—Slamford Advo-

The speech of Hon. John A. Kasson,
was, in the judgment of Norwalk Repub-

either Democrat, Mugwump or Preliibi-
tionist with a variety of sense, could have
heard Mr. Kasaon‘without being convinc-
ed that Protection was better for the in-
dividual and National prosperity than
free trade and that the Democratic party
was, in fact, steering as directly towards
free trade as the exigencies of the country
rendered possrblc. while the Republican
party was making its fight directly,
'earnestly and unequivocally for Protec-
tion.
The nomination of Hon. Frederick Miles

The Republican dynamite bomb with
which Mr. H. H. Belden of Westport
created such havoc in a recent Prohibi;
tiou meeting in South Norwalk, and
which the truly good leaders of the Dem-
ocratic annex extinguished" in terror as
soon as the fuse began to sis, will be ex-
ploded in the next issue of the Gamma.
it will be remembered that, after repeated
requests, Mr. Belden consented to ad-
dress thc Prohibitionists, and that he had
not been speaking five minutes before the
truly good people woke to a realization of
the fact that he was giving them a broad-
side of Republican hot shot that made
them wince and groan, and it was not un-
til it good sister in holy horror demanded
of the assemblage that he be fired out and
the demand was obeyed, that they could
recover their breath. Of course every-
body was anxious to know what Belden
would have said if they hadn't,choked him
03’, and this desire will be gratified by the
Gamma" next Week, in which the speech
will be given entire. It will be intcrcst-
iug reading.
General Harrison is not the friend of la-
bor. He is acold, unfceliug aristocrat.
He voted in congress every time for the
admission of the Chinese, and during the
railroad strikes of 1877 he said a dollar a
day was enough for the workiugman, and
that the strikers blight to be shot down
like dogs. The labor organizations of
Harrison’s own state are against him, and
the laboring men of this state should have
too much self respect and regard for their
own interests to vote for him—Telegram.
The above was copied into the Gazsr'rs
last week to show the audacity of lying to
which certain of the democratic press
deem it necessary to resort, but with our
own comments omitted. It was clipped
from Judge Birdsall’s resurrected Hart-
ford Telegram and yet ’Judge Birdsall
knows that the Indianapolis Journal has
denied on the authority of Gen. Harrison
that he ever uttered a word akin to that
charged above, that a dollars day was
enough for a workingman, and the Jour-
nal has for months offered to pay $10,000
to any man who can furnish the faintest
scintilla of evidence that Gen. Harrison
ever uttered such sentiment. So here is
Judge Birdsall’s chance if‘ he can prove
the charge, to realize $10,000 a godd deal
easier than in publishing a democratic
newspaper in Hartford.
The annual meeting of the Norwalk
Horse Railroad Company was held Tues-
day evening. There are said to have been
developments which suggest a possible
sensation in the near future. United States
Treasurer James W. Hyatt is president of
the road. He .came on from,Washington
to attend the meeting. lie :is president
and also ownsamajority of the stock,
and thus controls the road. The stock-
holders assert that the road‘s traffic is such
as to make it a large dividend paying
property, but that undcr'thc manipulation
of the management theyihave in the past
twenty years, or alarm r. Hyatt was in
control, received not to exceed 2 per cent.
dividends for many years in succession
being passed, and they state that they
have failed of receiving dividends .Which
might have been declared from the cum-
"ings of the road. They claim that Mr.
Hyatt’s pay of $3,500, and $1,500 to a
superintendent as yearly salary. are too
large, and_that a charge to expense ac-
count for keeping twanty-five horses is
nearly double that paidjn New York city,
and that by these methods the institution
has been run in the interest of individuals
and adverse to theirs. A New York man
holding $10,000 of the stock. and A. S.
Hurlbutt, of Westport, with $5,000, are
said to be at the head of a movement to
assume control of the road, provided Mr.
Hyatt will relinquish, guaranteeing the
stockholders 10 per cent. dividends and
depositing a fund for their payment in :1
Norwalk bank. Should Mr. Hyatt de-
cline, it is said these gentlemen .yvill take
steps to enjoin the present management
in the interests of the stockholders.—

. Henry G. Hotchkiss, of New Haven,
'whose extensive forgerics on the Yale Na-
tional Bank have shocked New Havcu’s
business circles, faced J udgc Pickett in the
City Court Thursday. N0 plea was entered
and his honor heard Charles S. Hamilton,
the counsel of the Yale _ National Bank,
City Attorney Dailey and James H. Webb,
Mr. Hotchkiss’ counsel, in the question of
a reduction in bail. It had already been
fixed at $8,000. The prisoner’s father,
George M. Hotchkiss, could have furnish-
ed a bond of $5,000, and Mr. Webb asked
for a reduction to that figure. The court
refused to grant the ‘rcqucst and Mr.
Hotchkiss went to jail.

No, the Democrats of Norwalk can
never repeat their memorable march from
Wcsiport after drinking three barrels of
ne av, unworked cider at Selectman Finch’s,
five kegs of beer and indefinite whiskey
at the gin mills in Westport village. At
least the stirring results of that campaign
march can never be equalled again, for
poor Ed Lynch is dead and his old horse
is dead and his earman truck among' the
things that were, and howcould the para ~
lyzed bodies he gathered up like cord

over again? No, history .wrll never repeat
itself in the terrible experiences of that
horrid and fatal night.

an appeal for all to use the “law of love”
in their efforts to reclaim men. Addresses,

WESTPOR I:
The Man in the Weslporter of last week
signing himself "F * *, takes exception to
what was saidin this column October 10th,
relative to the condition of, highways in
town, citing certain sections of highways
by way, of proving his premises, laying
stress on the fact that $2,000 per year are
paid the contractor for his services and
that taxpayers are not getting their
money’s worth. The “three stars" hints
that by chance the writer in this column
never rides much over these roads, and
hence is excusable for the views expressed.
Fact is the Writer has both ridden and
walked over most of the largely travelled
roads since April last and concludes, by
the use of his eyes that the work of repair-
ing has been done as well as it was possi-
ble to do with 175 miles confronting the
contractor and with the facilities in hand
with which to do it. Reading “three
stars” to his period the conclusion is
reached that he is a theorizer, and that he
and not the writer here, is the chap whose
observation of highways has bccn blindly
made. If instead of‘ taking the town in
spots, “three Stars" will take this business
in as a whole,hc may stumble upon sug-
gestions Which will enable him to employ
horse togsome extent. ‘
