EDITORIAL LETTER.

 

WASHINGTON, D. 0., Feb. 1’7, ’90.

DEAR GAZETTE :—Thc contest over the
adeption of the House rules came 'to an
‘i'nglorlous end for the contestants on Fri-

of the situation throughout, as every one
who knew him predicted he would be.
Now that the partisan struggle is over,
the better men on the democraticiside
frankly admit that as a whole they are a
great improvement on any heretofore
adopted, especially in so far as they pre—
vent any single crank or obstructionist
who may be in the house from totally
blocking the wheels of legislation. But
they reach beyond that issue. It is an
establishment of the fundamental doctrine
which constitutes the bed-rock of all our
liberties, that the majority shall govern,
and the minority must yield. This re-
sult. leaVcs the lower house of Congress in
the hopeful piospect of getting on with
the iieedful legislation of the session with-
out unnecessary delays, and exasperating
filibustering expedients.
NATIONAL nosrnn or G. A. 1:.“
Senator Evarts, on Friday, introduced a

ior to purchase five thousand copies of the
historical book of reference known as the
national roster of the Grand Army of the
Republic, for which the bill appropriates
$50,000. The purposeof this purchase is
for the distribution bySenators and Rep-
resentatives-Of one copy to each county
library in the United States, so that it
may be accessible to all who wish to read
it. The bill provides that the roster shall
contain not less than 400,000 names of ex-
Union soldiers, sailors and mariners and
the book must be approved by the Sec-
retary of the Interior. -

TEMPERANOE. ,

Senator Blair presxded at the mass meet-
ing of the National temperance society at
the Metropolitan church Thursday night.
A number of other prominent advocates of
the temperance cause had seats on the
platform. An address favoring the intro-
duction of temperance text books into the

Stearns of New York, secretary of the as-
sociation. Addresses were also made by
Hon. J. D. Taylor of Ohio, chairman of the
House committee on alcoholic liquor traf-
fic; Mrs. J. Ellen Foster of Iowa and Revs
Geo. H. Corey.

Senator Blair having completed his two
days’ speech in the Senate in advocacy of
his Educational bill he feels quite hopeful
of its passage: Others less interested be-
lieve it will be defeated in the Senate, but
will go through the House. Senator Blair
would solve the race problem at the
south by universal education. Senator-
Ingalls would do itby according the negro
equal and exact justice under the consti-
tution and the laws.

Senator Plait has created a ripple of
local excitement by the introduction Of a'
bill prohibiting the manufacture and sale
of spirituous and intoxicating liquors in
the District, which in its provisions is one
of the most stringent laws ever attempted
to be enacted. It absolutely prohibits the
manufacture, sale or importation into the
District of any kind of intoxicating liquor,
including wine, beer, ale, porter and cider
when it- is to be drank on the premises
where sold. It makes it a penal offense
uvct‘. to give it away. and in this respect
adds to the prohibitory clauses the ger-
mane part of the anti-treating laws, which
exist in several of the states. The only
use for which liquor can be sold is for
medicinal and scientific purposes, and
profiting by the experience which has
greeted prohibition efforts in Kansas,
where a liquor prescription counter flour-
ishes like a green bay tree, Senator Plait
has incorporated in his bill the most
stringent provisions against its violation
in that respect. To secure liquor one
must have the prescription of a reputable
physician, and the druggist who sells it is
obliged to write the name of the purchaser
across the prescription, and at the end Of
each month send them to the District
Commissioners for inspection. When
spirits are desired for mechanical or scien-
tific purposes the purchaser is required to
make an affidavit, stating for what partic-
ular purposes the liquor is desired before
its sale can be legalized. These affidavits,
like physicians’ prescriptions, must be
sent. to the Commissioners each month.
Even the most stringent regulations are
thrown around the wine for sacramental
purposes. Only the pastor of a church is
allowed to purchase it, and then only on a.
written application. For the violation of
any of its provisions a penalty of $100 to
$500 and not more than six months’ im-
prisonment is provided. In a personal
interview on the subject matter of the bill
the senator declined to discuss its provis-
ions or give his own views in regard to it. .
Continuing, he said: “I had almost for-
gotten about the bill this sessron, when it
was called to my attention by some one
connected with the W. C. T. U., I believe,
and I was asked toreintroduce the meas-
ure. It is identically the same measure
which I introduced last session. At that
time it was not suggested to me by any-
one, but the bill was prepared bya gentle-
man who is thoroughly conversant with
the District’ laws. Last year’s bill was
never reported from the committee, but I
am confident the measure I introduced to-
day will meet with a better reception, and
that some action will be taken on it.”

 

 

 

 

NORWALK GAZETTE, WEDNESDAY FEBRUARY 19’ 1890. ’ _
STATEMENT,

The Washington .Poat, fearing perhaps
that its own indulgences in social irriga-
tion, were in danger of being circumscrib-
ed, kicks vigorously against the habit it
says congressmen have of making this
city an experimental station for all sorts
of laws and vagaries which they dare not
introduce into the legal codes of their own
states. As there isn’t a ghost of a chance
for Senator Platt’s bill' becoming a law
here, the alarm of the Post and others is
needless.

Our Senator is receiving hearty com-
mendation for his successful efforts in
obtaining so important a consulate as
Quebec, for a plain workingnian, Mr.
Frederick M. Ryder, who is a practical
printer and has been foreman in the com-
posing room of the New Haven Palladium
for several years. He was born at St.-
Jolins, N. B., but came to Connecticut
when he was a youth. He is now about
forty years of age and has reSided in
Quebec, can speak the mongrel French so
much in vogue there, and is well posted
in Canadian affairsmnd a wide-awake, pop-
ular and well informed gentleman. Theo-
dore W. Downs, of Bridgeport, whom the
late IVm. H. Barnum induced President
Cleveland to appoint as consul to Quebec,
and whom Mr. Ryder succeeds, has made
quite a large and friendly acquaintance
among the many Americans who visit that
quaint Old city as summer excursionists,
and as anglers in quest of the beautiful
and aristocratic but elusive salmon, now
caught on rare occasions in the “pre-
serves” Of the Canadian nobility.

any. DR. oniLDs TURNS EPISCOPALIAN.

A profound sensation in religious circles
was created here to—day by the reading of
a letter at thc meeting of the Washington
City Presbytery from Rev. Dr. T. S
Childs, so long the able and devoted pas-
tor Of the First Congregational church in
Norwalk, but, during the past few years,
connected with the Presbyterian denom-
ation and recognized here as one of the
ablest and most zealous of their preachers,
renouncing his further connection with
that body and purpose of connecting him-
self with the Protestant Episcopal church.
During a lull 1n the discussion over a
revision of the Confession of Faith, it was
suggested that Rev. Dr. T. S. Childs, who
had determined to ask for a letter of dis-
missal from the Presbytery, be allowed to
present his letter at this time. Dr. Childs
said, previous to this, that lie was placed
in a rather delicate position, as he intend-
ed to withdraw from the Presbyterian
church in order to connect himself with
another church. He had hoped that the
question of revision would be decided,
and after he had placed himself on record
it was his intention to withdraw. He
would, however, leave it to the Presbytery
when the question of his withdrawal
should be considered.

It was decided to allow him to present
his letter at once. Dr. Childs then read
his letter, which was laid on the table
without debate for further consideration.
The letter is as follows :

To the Presbytery of Washington City :

Dear Brethren: I would ask a dismissal
from your body to the Protestant Episcopal
church, diocese of Maryland. It is unnec-
essary to dwell upon the reasons that. have
led me to seek this change. I find in the
Episcopal church a doctrinal faith in sub-
stantial harmony with our own, I find a
worship reverent, spiritual, Comforting. I
find a communion of saints in which I hope
to enlarge the experiences of the past and
have a pledge of a still wider communion
of the future.

I do not go out with or to controversy. I
go with the hope of yet fuller service for
the Master in the work of a common faith
and the bands of a common love. My rela-‘
tions to the Presbytery have been always
pleasant and never were more so than they
are now. These relations cannot be severed
without pain. I trust, however, that the
bonds of personal and Christian affection
may remain unbroken.

F raternally yours, T. S. CHILDS.

It has been well known for a considera-
ble time to the Doctor‘s more intimate
friends, that he has been rcstive under the
ignoring of the ancient confession of faith
Of his church, and of a tendency by a very
large body of its pastors and members,
towards Universalism and Unitarianism,
in the adoption of their new creed, but
his letter announcing so radical a change
in his own faith and doctrine was truly a
sensational surpriSO.

GEN. ALGER 1:: TOWN.

Gen. Alger, commander-iu-chief .of the
G. A. R., arrived in this city Saturday,
and at once proceeded to "Calumet Place”
the home Of Mrs. Gen. Logan, whose
guest he is. This evening he will attend
the encampment of the Grand Army,
which meets at G. A. R. hall. He goes to
Baltimore tomorrow, accompanied by the
members of his staff of this department
and many others, to attend the G. A. R.
camp fire and banquet to be held there
to-morrow evening. A big dinner is to be
given the General at Willard’s, after the
ceremonies at G. A. R. hall, at which our
Senator Hawley is to be one of the promi-
nent guests.

BUMANE SENATOR.

Riding up the avenue last week with
Senator and ex-Gov. Vance, of North Cap"-
olina, who is the jolly story teller of the
Senate, he fell to humanely nioralizing.
Pasaing several “liveried” teams of spirit-
ed horses, with their tails “banged’
(which is Hinglish don’tcher know,) and
many with their winter coats shorn close
to their shivering hides, while others had
their eyes blinded by close hugging blind-
ers and their heads “gagged” up to a ter-
turing altitude by tight check-reins, he
broke forth as follows: “If I were an auto-
crat I’d have every, idiot who ‘banged’ his
horse’s tails off in imitation of an old
scrubbing broom, publicly executed; ev-
ery man who was too lazy to rub his
horse dry after sweating him in winter
and so had him shorn, 1 would imprison
for life ; every brute who used an over-

 

draw gag-rein and tortured his beast by
making him draw a. load and hold his
head at an unnatural elevation at the same
time, I’d give twenty years in the peni-

tentiary; every man who let the blinds on

his bridle hug close down on the poor
horse’s orbs of sight, I’d give ten years at
hard labor; every foolodriver who sat on
his box, whip in hand, tormenting his
team with constant cuts of the whip, I'd
give twenty lashes on the bare back, after
which, I think, the noblest servant God
ever gave to man, might have some im-
munity from wanton and unnecessary
pain and misery, born of ignorance and
vic10us customs. In England, where this
fad of docking horses’ tails originated,
there are no flies to torment them and the
fashion is simply a folly, but in this coun-
try, so depriving the horse of the only
weapon its Creator has given it to defend
itself from this species of torture, is sim-
ply barbarous, as is the stripping of na-
ture’s clothing from its body by our prac-
tice of ‘clipping,’ and is setting our wis-
dom above that of the Almighty, as if He
did not know how to make a home.” The
Senator says that a constituent of his in
North Carolina, to whom he sent a copy
of one of tliePatent Office annual reports,

‘spoke to him of the .occurrence in this

way: “Gineral, I got them speeches of
your’n, hilt I couldn’t read ’einfithrough
Thar war aleetle too much Whig docterin
into em.”

MISCELLANEOUS.

The Potomac Fruit Growers’ Literary
Club that were entertained last Tuesday
evening at the capacious home of Mrs.
Dr. E. A. Barbour, 1008 I street, was at-
tended by ovcr a hundred and proved a
most enjoyable occasion. Dr. Hoflmaun,
who has long been a resident among the
Western Indian tribes and became famil-
iar with the Ojibwa language and cus-
toms, read an exceedingly interesting
paper giving an account of the existence
of a “Mystery Society” among the Ojib-
was, wherein we lodge rooms, initiations,
degrees, and the like, so nearly akin to
the rites of ancient Masonry as to have
little doubt that this branch of the Indian
family sometime in the remote past, must
have been familiar at least with its ritual
and ceremonials. The initiation and
degree ceremonials are so ancient that
many words and phrases now used which
have been handed dowu to them from
past ages, have become meaningless, their
signification being lost and unknown to
the present Ojibwa. The paper was of
the intensest interest to every Masonic
brother present. Music, vocal and in-
strumental, and recitations, filled the
evening’s interesting and varied pro-
gramme. In the latter exercise Miss
Baibour recited with successful efiect a
humorous and pathetic story in verse
based on the experience of a New York
newsboy.

It has been a common experience here,
for the past two or three weeks, to be
awakened in the morning by the huckstcrsi
cry of “Fine nice strawberries, twenty-five
cents a quart.” They come from the vi-
cinity of Charleston, S. 0., where gardeners
in that region have experienced no winter
to speak Of, and fruit of all kinds is very
far advanced in consequence. Hitherto it
has been thought remarkable for strawber-
ries to be in the city markets by the 1st of
March, and they have only been reserved
for epicures and swell dinners prior to that
time.

“People who gindorse others for posi-
tions say very strange things once in a
while,” remarked a western Senator. “I
received papers the other day urging the
nomiuaiiah of a constituent of mine asa
chaplain in the army, and one of the docu~
ments, after saying a number of nice things
about the candidate and detailing his long
service as a minister Of the gospel, wound
up with the emphasized remark, ‘He is a
man of good moral character.’ ”

Dr. Edward M. Gallaudet, president of
the Columbian Institution for Deaf and
Dumb, has purchased the vacated church
edifice Of the First Baptist Seeiety On
Thirteenth street, and will fit it up for a
general lecture and concert hall, which
he thinks is very much needed here. It is
65x130 feet, and in honor of Maine’s great
senator he has renamed it “Fessenden

Hall.”
PERSONALS.

James P. Platt, son of the senator, is
expected here from Meridcn to-morrow.

Mrs. S. B. S. Bissell and Mrs. Charles
C. Bctts, who have been visiting their
sister Mrs. Ferry, return to Nor-walk
Wednesday. They were at the meeting
of the Washington City Presbytery, this
morning, held at Dr. Kelley’s church,
when the announcement was made by
Rev. Dr. Childs of his withdrawal from
the Presbyterian and transfer Of himself
to the Episcopal church. To say that our
Norwalk friends listened to Dr. Childs‘
letter with intense interest and surprise is
to state the case very mildly. Rev. Dr.‘
Childs has been filling the pulpit of Rev.‘
Dr- Sunderland, (the first Presbyterian)
the past few Sundays, owing to Dr. S.’s,
absence in N. Y., at the bedside of a very:
seriously and it is feared, fatally ill:
daughter. _

tle sold has given relief in every case.
One man took six bottles, and was cured

Abraham Hare, druggist, Bellvillc, Ohio,
afiiruis :—“The best selling medicine I
have ever handled in my 20 years’ exper-
ience, is Electic Bitters.” Thousands of
others have added their testimony, so that
the verdict is unanimous that Electric Bit-
ters do cure all diseases of the liver, kid-
