The Campaign in Iowa.

The Republican party of Iowa is already
in the field with an unusually strong State
ticket. It is committed in favor of three
certain lines of public policy 2

1. State control of railroads.

2. Protection to American industry.

3. Uncomprising hostility to the saloon.

The State is in very comfortable cir-
cumstances ; with ten million dollars’
worth of public buildings, it does not owe
a dollar of bonded debt. The people have
more dollars in their banks and fewer
convicts in their penitentiaries than they
have ever had before in proportion to the
population.

The Democracy will necessarily be com-
pelled to make their fight upon their two
lofty principles :

1. Free trade is prosperity.

2. Whiskey is liberty.

Fate and the future, God and nature,
reason and justice are against them. The
prospect of Democratic success in Iowa
seems as remote as of old. Indeed this
is true of all the Northwestern States, old
and new.

Vinegar and Molasses.

The new laws in which the farmers are par-
ticularl y interested are those relating to the
manufacture and sale of vinegar and molas-
ses. The manufacture; of vinegar are forbid-
den to make or sell any article under that
name which is not produced wholly from the
juice of apples, and are forbidden to add to
the product any hurtful substance. The vine-
gar must have a certain strength. The acetic
acidity must be not less than four per cent.
by weight of absolute acetic acid, and in case

of cider vinegar not less than two per cent.
by weight of cider vinegar solids upon full
evaporation over boiling water. The makers
of vinegar must brand the package contain-
ing the product with his name and residence.

If the article is sold at retail at the place of
manufacture in quantities of less than five
gallons, the branding will not be required.
The penalty for violating this law is from
$10 to $100. The penalty for adulterating
vinegar is from $ 10 to $100. The dairy com-
missioners are instructed to enforce the law
and any person obstructing them in the dis-
charge of their duties shall be liable to a fine
$7 or imprisonment for 30 days orboth.

There are some people who seem to think

they have a through ticket on a vestibule
train for heaven. Having paid their pew-
rent, taken their seat in the church for a
pleasing Sunday service; feeling no obliga-
tion to do anything to move the Church on-
ward sniritually, they consider themselves
at liberty to find fault with the minister and
and chair; just as the critical and complain-
ing passenger, who having paid for his tick-
et and secured his berth, looks upon the
train, officers, and all as bound to be simply
subservient to his individual fancy and pleas-
ure. Is it not time that those who are divine-
ly cemmanded to work out their own salva-
tion with fear and trembling, got rid of this
passenger notion or getting to heaven?— The

Oystermen Discourazed.

Fair Haven oyster growers are discouraged
at the present outlook for their business,
and not only the present but the future.
Yesterday a prominent dealer said that for
the first time in his experience there had
been two consecutive years of poor results.
The shells that were planted have not re—
eeived a set. There are only a few dealers
who report a set, and in these cases the sets
are extremely light. Early in August it
was thought by some that the rains had
caused the trouble, but upon examination
later it is found that the embryo bivalve
has suffered from its natural enemies. The
starfish and drills are said to be worse this
year than ever before in the history of the
business. Since the cultivation of the oy~
ster has been carried on so extensively the
increase of the fish that feed on the oyster
has been equally rapid. It seems that these

cts are indigenous to Long Island water,
especially at the mouth of streams where
the water is more or less brackish. In the
Chesapeake Bay the water is fresher and
oystermen do not have any such trouble.

George Dayton, who planted some shells
ofi Merwin’s Point, reports that in making
four dredges he caught up only about a
dozen shells with oysters on them. C. D.
Parmlee, who has a few acres in shells out
in the sound, reports no set. Lancraft
Brothers report a very light set near the
rocks at Merwin’s Point. Ludington &
Palmer planted a few shells below the bar-
bor and have found no set. They report a
light set on the shells at Milford. Jerry
Smith, of Oyster Point, reports a good set
of Black Rock, Bridgeport.

It appears that all the growers along the
sound report very poor sets, and in most
cases no set at all. But in the public beds
at Bridgeport there is an exception. A
stream of fresh water passes over these beds,
and it is thought that this is the reason for
good results seen there. In the lower end
of New Haven harbor there is alight set,
but further out where the water is more
brackish and salty there is no set at all.

It 18 reported that two or three oyster
boats at Oyster Point can be bought for a
song. Dealers in Fair Haven are not yet
ready to sell their boats, but if the busmess
does not improve by another year several
will sell out and quit the busines. Leonard
Bailey, who has been inspecting the beds
near the lighthouse, reports that he saw the
reeks completely covered with drills. These
pestiferous fish here through the thickest
shells and destroy the spawn or embryo
oyster with their bills. There are also
many “five fingers” playing sad havoc with
the set—Palladium.

NORWALK GAZETTE, WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 25, 1889.

Was it a Sea Serpent 1'

Some tWenty—five members of the Aque-
nuckaquewauk Piscatorial club, of Danbury,
are campin out at Fancher’s, near Black
Rock. Har ly a day passes but some of the
members catch a big mess of fish, as they are
provided with all kinds of fishing tackle to
tempt the finny residents of the deep. Tues-
day, W. B. Sharp, president of the associa—
tion, caught a queer specimen of the shark
species. He was tickled to death, and on
arriving at camp it was pronounced by all a
veritable sea serpent. Great enthusiasm was
the result over the capture by the members.
They intended as soon as they arrived at
home to have the funny looking fish cured
and stuffed and sent to the Smithsonian In-
stitute. Yesterday Frank Taylor and a
couple of friends drove that way on account
of an invitation extended to them by the pres-
ident. As Frank is a well-known sportsman,
the specimen was shown to him, and he pro-
nounced it to be a large dog fish. Notwith-
standing Frank took an oath that Such was
the case he was not believed. The club are
having a fine time. So far they have caught
235 blue fish 60 blackfish and about 20 sea.
bass. They ship by express every other day
quite a number to their friends. About ten
more members came up from Danbury last
evening, and before they leave next week
they expect to have a grand old time.—
Bridgeport News.
The Only Way to Become a. Capitalist.

Somebody must save money, and the
people who save it will be the capitalists,
and they will control the organization of the
industry and receive the larger share of the
profits. If the workingmen will save their
money, they may not only be sharers of
profits, but owners of stock and receivers of
dividends. And the workingmen can save
their money if they will. It is the only
way in which they can permanently and
surely improve their condition. Legisla-
tive reforms, improved industrial methods,
may make the way easier for them, but
there is no road to comfort and independ-
ence after all but the plain old path of
steady work and sober saving. Ifthe work-
ing people of this country would save, for
the next five years the money they spend
on beer and tobacco and base base ball, they
could control a. pretty large share of the
capital employed in the industries by which
they get their living, and they could turn
the dividends of this capital from the pock-
ets of the money lenders into their own.
There is no other way of checking the con.
gestion of wealth and of promotin its diffu-
sion so expeditious, so certain an so bene-
ficient as this. I wish the working people
would try it,— Washington Gladden in the
Forum.
If you are nervous or dyspeptic try Car-
ter’s Little Nerve Pills. Dyspepsia makes
you nervous, and nervousness makes you
dyspeptic; either one makes you miser-
able, and these little pills cure both.

 

Ex-Congressman “Bob” Vance has at last.
come to the conclusion that he will settle
down to newspaper life right at home in
Hartford county. To this end Editor Blanch-
ard of the New Britain Herald has disposed
of enough of his share of that paper to give
the ex-congressman a controlling interest,
and will give wa to Vance October 1, rec
turning to New ork, where he came from,
probably going upon the Tribune where he
formerly worked. Mr. Vance broke into the
harness a little the past week by occupying
the reporters’ stand at Charter Oak park for
his paper. He is bred to the newspaper busi-
ness and it will be a comparatively easy task
for him to take the Herald in hand and
make something positive of it. The owner-
ship of the paper since Vance went to Con-
gress has been equally divided between re-
publican and democratic proprietors, but
now it will veer in the direction of democ-
racy. although it will be run on so-ealled
"independent”lines.—SpringfioldRepublian.

 

 

Wilson Barrett, in his speech at the ded-
ication of the new theatre at Halifax, Eng-
land,said: “I repeat that recreation is as ne-
cessary for the mind as food is for the body,
and one of the highest forms of recreation
is to be found in a good theatre. I Would
say to those large employers of labor who
may be present, and to all who have the
welfare of the city at heart, let the people
have innocent amusement—nay, direct their
attention to it, for if you do not give it
them openly, they will seek their pleasures
in dark corners. I believe it to be the duty
of guardians of the public to provide or see
provided, innocent recreation for the people.
I urge those in authority to get the working
population to seek the pure recreation afford-
ed by good plays—to get them into the
theatre."

Advice to Mothers.

Are you disturbed at night and broken of
your rest by a. sick child suffering and crying
with pain of outtin teeth? If so send at once
and gets. bottle 0 Mrs. Winslow’s Soothing
Syrup for Children Teething. Its value is
calculable. It will relieve the poor little suf-
ferer immediately. Depend u on it, mothers,,
there is no mistake about it. 1: cures dysen-,
tery and diarrhoea. regulates the stomach and
bowels, cures wind colic, softens the gums
reduces inflammation, and gives tone and
energy to the whole system. Mrs. Winslow’s
soothing Syrup for Children Teething is

leasant to the taste, and is the prescription of
Some of the oldest and best female nurses
and physicans in the United States, and is for
sale by all druggists throughout the world.
Price 25 cents a bottle. 1752

Located at the National Capital, adjacent to allthe
Executive Departments, gives me superior
advantage in the prosecution of Claims
against the United States.

INCREASE YOUR PENSION.
Many pensioners borne on the rolls are entitled
to a much higher rate of pension than they now
receive. Inagreat majority of cases in which
pension was granted for disease, the pensioner is
entitled to an increase of rate, and in most cases
where it was granted for wounds or injuries the
disability increases each year. A s time passes the
disability of all classes naturally increases. Many
were at first rated too low, and it often occurs
that pensioners are unjustly or erroneously re-
duced by examining surgeons. A pens1ouer is
entitled to increase on a disability not set forth in
his original declaration. The pension laws are
more liberal than formerly, and better rating can
be had for many disabilities. I make a specialty
of Neglected and Rejected Claims, and if you will
present me with a brief statement of your case,
stating by whom it was presented, I Will obtaina
rehearing of your case, and, if it has merit, will
procure a favorable settlement. Many claims
stand rejected before the department, when it
only requires a competent attorney to make them
good cases. Soldiers sufiering with dusabilutles
contracted in service, who have not applied for a
pension, should do so as it is their RIGHT.
