EDITORIAL LETTER.

DEAR GAZETTE :-—The nomination of
Congressman Reed by so overwhelmning
‘a majority on the s cond ballot at. Satur—
day’s caucus was a surprise to his com—
petitors great as was the joy of his
friends He was by all odds the best man
for the place. as McPherson was for the
clerkship. Fir-Congressman Holmes, of
Iowa, was the most surprised man of the
lot. He had been a member of the House
for three terms from Iowa, but owing to
theinternaldissentions among his party
friends had failed of a renomination for
this congress. He. had been led to expect
that President HarrisodWould give him
one of the South American missions, but
as astral, with many another strong and
earnest republican, he has been disappoint-
('(l. He had no thought of an office in the
present House, rand was at his home in
Iowa, diligently attending to his business,
when Henderson, of Iowa. sprang his
name upon the caucus in one of his apt
and impassioned little speeches and he
went through to his nomination like a
whirlwind. His first intimation of his
good frrtune was Henderson’s telegram
announcing the fact that he had been
nominated for sergearrt-at-arms of the
Horme. ‘lo-ilay it is quite largely stated
that his large and prompt vote was giVen
with such earnest cordiallty because of a
wish on the part of many congressman to
show the President that Holmes was it
man entitled to consideration, and if the
administration could not so view it the
republican members of the House could
and would. Holmes is a high—minded,
clear-headed, honest, self-made man, and
will make a most creditable ofliccr. For
the easy post of chaplain Revs. Dr. Childs
and Chester, among others, were candi-
dates, while the Presbyterian minister of
an up town church carried off the prize.
The “blind preacher," Milburn, chaplain
of the last House. was also a candidate
for the place, and many republicans were
in favor of nominating him although
elected two years since by the democrats
Beyond sympathy for his loss of sight. it
is argued that his ptayers tll'r' fresh. orig-
inal and, above all else, short. The aver-
age congressman, if he could have his
heart’s desire in the matter of invoking
divine aid in his in ; - if. would have the
petition no longer than Peter’s was when
he i-ssayed to walk on the. water to meet
his Lord, which comes down to us in just
five words.
The opening at high-noon to day of the
fifty—first congress was in strict accordance
with the constitutional provisions in such
case made and provided. The Senate is a
continuous booy,and So no 1': organization
there is necessary. The rcpub'ican cau-
cus Saturday so completely laid out all
the preliminaries for an organization of
the Housr: by the dominant party that it
became more a matter of form than other-
wise.

republican majority is‘ so small that it will

undoubtedly filibuster-and get up dead.
locks to defeat any measures not pleasing
to tin or. The democratic policy in poll-
tics is and always has been. “heads we
win, tails you lose."
The striking episode of the day in the.
[louse of Representatives occurred when
the nominations were made for the minor
offices. Mr. Henderson. as chairman of
the caucus. presented the names of the
officers and chaplain nominated by the
republican caucus—McPherson for clerk,
Holmes for sergeant-at-nrms, Adams for
doorkeeper. Wheat for postmaster. and
Rev. Dr. Ramsdell for chaplain. Mr.
Cheadle, at this point, bolted the caucus -
0n the chuplaincy and and proposed to
strike out the name of Dr. Ramsdell and
insert. that of the blind democratic chap-
lain, Rev. Mr. Milburu. Three .or four
. republicans voted with the entire demo-
cmtic side for Dr. Milburn. and he was
finally selected as chaplain by a vote of
166 to i55-
The message Will be Wired all over the
country. It will command the special
attention always accorded 9. President's
first communication to” congress and the
people. President Harrison has a re-
markable facility of expression, and few
public men use the English language with
his forceful power and rhetorical finish.
To prevent all chance of its surreptitious
pillage by the army of newspaper report-
ers he had it run off on the White House
typewriter, instead of advance copies
being printed at the government printing
ofiice.
Secretary Windom’s report will be next

ance than the message, to the business
men of the nation.
The Postmaster-General’s report will
challenge wide approval and criticism as
well. The war. navy, inter-let- and agri.
cultural reports will be read by few com-
pared to the other public documents.

Mr. William R Lockwood, of Norwalk,
was here the past week looking after his
several real estate investments. He was
surprised to find that the assessors here
had been seized with the Same ambition

form than at home. He. was marked up
several hundred dollars, but his tax even
then, was not more than about a quarter
of what'hc would have been assessed had
the same possessions been in the borough
of Norwalk.
Mr. Reed, of Maine, is the first republi-
canto occupy the Speaker's chair, with
the single exception of Keifer, since it was
vacated by Blaine in 1875, and the thought

ever fall on Reed. _
The brilliant and irrepressible Senator

crs who want his forthcoming novel.
Even a London house has been after him
with a libel-iii: ()IICP. Any book that
Senator Ingalls might write is assured of
big sale in advance.
The whole American people who so
deeply sympathized with our Minister to
England, when the announcement of his
little son’s dangerous illness was made,
have gratefully received the news of his
rallying. The universal prayer is that the
lad, who is named Abrahamlincoln, may
speedily recover and live long to bear a
name which is already honored and be-
loved throughout the civilized world.

"' ' _— . ' ‘ l
Mrs. Carl E. Hunger. i
At 3.45 o’clock Sunday morning Mary 5
Rose, wife of Dr. Carl E“ Munger, died of l
.bilious remittent fever at her home on Hill- 3
side avenue. She was taken 111 three weeks '
ago today. Last Thursday she became de-
lirious and continued in that condition un-
til her death. Two Weeks prior to the com-
mencement of her own sickness Dr. Manger,
her husband, was taken ill. with 'bilious
fever, and during those two Weeks the de-
voted wife andured a physical and nervous
strain that transcenoed the limit of her ca-
pacity. She overtaxed herself" and the
result was that she fell an easy victim to the
disease that terminated fatally. ,
Mrs. Munger was the daughter of the
Rev. Dr. and Mrs. Joseph Anderson. She
was born at the FirstCongregational church
parsonage Dec. 19, 1865, and was, therefore,
nearly 24 years of age. She. graduated with
honors from St. Margaret's school in this g
city in the class of 1883. Owing to a
thre .tened pulmonary aflection she spent
the winter of 1884-5 in Colorado. She won
a host of warm friends dUIing her sojournin
Colorado, and spending much time in the
open air she came back restored in health.
On her return she united With the First
Congregational church, and has been an
active and faithful member since. She was
married Oct. 18, 1888, to Dr. Carl E. Mun-
ger, son of Dr. W. S. Munger.‘ of Water-
town, and a year of wedded life, which has
been characterized by happiness unalloyed,
had just ended when her husbandwas taken
sick. Their residence was one of the model i
homes of Waterbury. It was by the iireSide i
that her manifold gifts and accomplishments '
shone with their most brilliant lustre. ' - . I
Her death was easy and peaceful. Dr. r
and Mrs. Anderson left her bedside late on '
Saturday night and returned to their home,
not anticipating that her end was so near.
Instructions were given by Dr. Anderson
that he be summoned if any adverse. change
set in. At two o’clock Sunday morning a
messenger came with the announcement
that. she was dead. Dr. Anderson quickly
arose and hastened up the hill alone, the
saddest journey of his life. He found, how-
ever that the announcement of her death
was premature, (the messenger having mis-
understood his mcssage), and that she still
lived. She lingered till 3.45 when she died,
Dr. Anderson, Dr. Benedict and the nurse
being at her bedside. In an adjoining room
lay her sick husband asleep and wholly
ignorant of the sad scenes that were being
enacted so near him. He was not acquaint-
ed wit her deuth until Sunday noon. The
painful task of conveying the information to
him was accomplished by Dr. Benedict as
delicately as possible. The stricken hus-
band was naturally nearly overcome by the
intelligence. Her younger brother, Joseph
Anderson, Jr., who is a student atYale
University. was yesterday informed of Mrs.
Munger’s death, and he will go to Brooklyn
to-day to acwmpany home his sister, Miss
Anne S. Anderson, who is attending school
in that city. ,
Miss Sarah J. Pritcliard has kindly writ-
ten the following personal tribute to Mrs.
Munger :—
“Mary Rose Anderson, eldest daughter of -
Rev. Joseph Anderson, D. D., and Wife of
Dr. Carl E. Monger, died at her home on
Hillside avenue at. an early hour on Sunday
morning. Early in the coming year will
occur the 23th annchrsary in the pastorate
of Dr. Anderson over the First church in,
Waterbury. It was in the first year of that,
pastorate and the last year of our civil war
that, on the 19th of December, 1865, happy
tidings went-forth from the parsonage that:
Mary Rose Anderson was born. If, ori‘that |
day, when our pastor and his family were .
new to us, we rejoiced in their,joy, :.how ,
much more do we, now that they have. 1
grown into our hearts, sorrow in the sorrow l
unspeakable that has fallen over and into
their lives this day. The laying down of
this glad young life in the early morning of |
the Sabbath day, and in the still dawning l
and bright morning of its being, seems op-
pressive, mysterious and so heavy with sor-
row te the living that loving hearts are bur-
dened and trembling lips cry out with the
weight of grief. On entering. society she
was met at its very threshold with the one i
great sorrow of her life, the death of her i
brother. A winter in Colorado for the bene-
fit of he own health ; bright summers by the
sea, surrounded by friends, in “Rosemary
Cottage ;” a trip to Bermuda, to meet to
meet her father there, and pleasant days in
her Waterbury homefill in the time'until
we come to her marriage-day, the 18th tf
October, 1888. The date is so recent that
day, her face radiant with the light of hap-
piness. - ‘ ~
The many friends who have been the
recipients of the delightful hospitality it has
been the pleasure of Dr. and Mrs. Muuger
to dispense in their Hillside home during - -
the short year of their married life, delight '-
to testify to the great measure 'of happiness
that filled their lives, a happiness that was
first shadowed by the illness of Dr. Manger
and is now deepened and darkened by the
awful shadow that falls, soon -or late, over
every home—asshadow under ; whose dark-
