EDITORIAL LETTER.

 

Wxsmxoron, D. 0., June 2d, ’90.

DEAR GAZETTE:—Llllle has been done

in either House of Congress the past week
to interest the general reader. The Senate
finance committee is earnestly wrestling
with theirproposed improvement on the
House or McKinley tariff bill. A strong
pressure is upon the committee from vari-
ous sources for. oral hearings, but thus
far they have not aceeded to the appeals,
although vast monetary and business
interests are in these reasonable appeals.
The committeeitself seems badly mixed
up in opinion as to what should be done
with many of the over three thousand
dutiablc paragraphs in the bill. Allison
and Aldrich are strongly in favor of pre-
paring and reporting a new bill ; Sherman
and the democratic members of the corn-
mittee dasrre to amend the House bill in
detail. Still work is going earnestly for-
ward in the revision, and last week the
chemical schedule was practically com-
pleted. None of the changes were im-
portant. A proposition finds strong en-
dorsement to take a recess from July to
October in case an agreement cannot be
reached without prolonged debate and
delay, and to let the committee use the
intervening time in settling upon a satis-
factory bill. The window glass men are
here in force to-day, and it is evident they
will make an impression on the committee
as they claim to be able to show that the
McKinley bill has three separate and dis-
tinct duties in it on glass, and all contra-
dictoryto each other, and undoubtedly
it has also clerical errors.
DECORA’I‘lON on:

All other interest here, as elsewhere
throughout our reunited country, has, the
past week, been subordinate to that
supreme veneration for our dead heroes
and the imperishable fact of a union of all
the states, restored by their valor, which
lindsfittcst expression at this season of
the year in the bestowal of wreaths and
garlands of flowers above the folded hands
and pulseless hearts of that grand army of
the nation’s braves, who went down to
theirgravcs in the greatest conflict in the
history of mankind. At Arlington, Gettys-
burg, Antietam, as at a thousand other‘
places, loving hands ‘l'l'l eloquent tongues
vied to make the lutllrlll’b' consecrated
anniversary hallowed in the memory of
all the living. Patriotism, gratitude, for-
giveness were the ruling sentiments of the
day. A renewed consecration to the
Union, to peace and a common brother.
hood rose with the odors of grave decked
flowers, a sweet and loyal incense on the
altars of our liberties.

The first kindred expression of these
ins‘pirations of the war were unique, in
that Richmond was the place, and the
dedication of a statue to the “lost cause”
chir-t'iain,lhe subject. Much has been
said in approval and adverse criticrsrn of
that event. Senator Ingalls, in his Decor-
ation day oration, at Gettysburg, ’llt'ttl this
to say of seine of the incidents of the
Richmond display :

“It is not necessary to disparage the
bravery of adversaries. Let them rear
monuments to their dead and cherish
their (feeds; let them eulogize the lost
cause; let them worship their leaders; let
them carry their stars and bars. These
are matters of taste which they must de-
cide for themselves. rlhere is no other
country under the sun that would permit
such transactions. They are our country-
men united to us by a common heritage,
so they say, but when they assert that
‘Lincorn and Davis, Grant and Lee, Logan
and Jackson Were equal, and that God
alone knows which was iight,’ it is sacril-
cgc of the vilest type and needs rebuke.”

At Grafton national cemetery Conmis-
sioner of Pensions Gen. Raum says:

“I don’t care what they do. They
represent a lost cause that is bound to be
pushed aside as, a back number; while
our cause will rise up and stand like
Pike‘s Peak from the surrounding: coun-
try.”

Ar Arlington Congressman Boutellc
said: “As to the doings at Richmond
the past two days I feel a good deal more
than regret." lle protested against the
lavish display of rebel colors, and said
“that ex—confederates who displayed the

rebel flag to glorify it was not true to the '

parole granted at Appomattox. The man
who rallied to the defense of the star-
spangled banner not only kept step to the
music ofthe Union, but marched in the
vanguard of Christian civilization. This
cannot be said, and nothing like it can
ever be9 truthfully said of the cause of
those who sought by rebellion to destroy
the government. The rebellion was a
conspiracy organized in the interest of
human slavery. It sought a pretext for
precipitating a bloody conflict with the
purpose of establishing a slave holding
confederacy or ultimate empire. We have
no desire to revive unhappy memories or
fan any ‘embers of sectional strife,’ and
we pay the highest reverence to the mem—
cry of our dead when we strive most
earnestly to remember and to impress
upon others the nobility of the cause for
which they so steadfastly fought.”

At Soldier-5’ Home Representative Morse
thus criticised the Richmond incident :

“Pray in what other country were trait-
ors ever allowed to erect monuments to
perpetuate and glorify treason and trait-
ors. We may forgive the wrong, and
great wrong it was, which shedrivers of
blood, filled the land with widows and
orphans and wasted billions of treasure;
but ‘let my right hand forget its cunning
and my tongue cleave to the roof of my
mouth,’ when I make patriots and traitors
equal or when I fail to discern between
the loyal soldiers who periled and laid
down their lives in the-defense of their

 
 

Ecountry anti the traitors who fought to
destroy it.”

Despite all these oratorical flights the
cheering truth remains that the ablest and
best men of the “reconstructed south”
disapprove of this flaunting the “stars and
bars,” the emblem of their “lost cause,”
and, in repeated instances throughout the
south, ex-confcderates joined with the
local G. A. R. organizations in bestrewing
the graves of our dead heroes, sepulchred
under their sunny skies, with a southern
afiluance of flowers. No one doubts that
were a war to occur between this and any
foreign nation the solid phalanx of south-
ern warriors would loyally march under
and fight in defense of the Union’s starry
flag. From an eye witness of the day’s
proceedings at Richmond we learn that
there were twenty-five American flags
proudly carried, and ten confederate flags
tattered and torn, that had been carried
through the war and were prized as relics
rather than exhibzted in defiance of a
dominant Union sentiment. There were
also numerous rebel flags exhibited along
the line of march, undoubtedly portray-
ing the feelings of their possessors, while
that placed on the statue of Wasliingtrn
was clandestinely done by some one with-
out consequence, and met wiih as wide
reprobation for its impropriety by lich-
mond people as it did from others. It is
true no other nation would permit such
exhibitions from those who had sought its
destruction, but this grand and glorious
republic is, under God, great and power—
fril enough to tolerate such expressions of
local feeling without harm to its grandeur
or perpetuity. Without repression also
it will the more rapidly and surely fade
away.

At. Cleveland the President and mem-
bers of his cabinet joined in a fitting
tribute of respect and commemoration to'
the martyred Garfield. It was an event
marked by wide and deep contrast with
that enacted at Richmond, and gave re—
newed and pathetic emphasis to the
eloquent words these mute lips spoke in
Congress, when he said: “The war for
the Union was eternally right; the war
against it was eternally wrong,”

Colonel Batchelor, the Gettysburg his—
torian, organized a congressional and
press excursion to the Gettysburg and
Antietam battlefields for Decoration day.
Through the courtesy of the several rail—
roads running thence from here, and the
unbounded ho~pitality of the proprietors
of that most charming of all inland surn-
rner licsteleries, “The Bltic Mountain
House,” nearly three hundred excursion-
ists enjoyed a trip of the rarest satisfac-
tion,prolit and delight. The train was
halted in the cut just east of where the
first day’s light opened at Gettysburg.
The colonel gave a rapid but clear and
correct description of the dcsultory battles
fought there and new marked by numer-
ens monuments, the 17th Conn. among
the rest. Thence the the train sped to
Little ’tound Top, where another lecture
was given covering the second and third
days’ battles and Pickct’s teri'rific charge
at that point. ’telurning the train halted
at the point where the gallant Hancock
fell wounded. Carriages were here pro—
vided for such as wished to go to the
cemetery and to Cnlps Hill. A bountilul
collation had been spread by the citizens
for these excursionists, but a heavy shower
overtaking there was a scramble back to
the cars and but few continued on to the
dining ten: or the cemetery. The quaint
old town was filled with people from all
the adjoining towns and innumerable
excursions from Philadelphia, Baltimore,
Vi'ashirigton and the north and west.
From Gettysburg the train sped on to the
summit of soldier tramped "Blue Ridge,”
where a sumptuous dinner was served the
hungry cxcursionists, a good night’s sleep
enjoyed under winter coverings, an early
breakfast greedily devoured, and then
carriage rides to High Rock, Pen-Mar
and the Summit Observatory. After an
appetizing lunch at the famed Blue
Mountain House, the train bore all down
to Antietan, where an hour was spent
visiting the battlefield and national ceme-
tery, and thence returning to Washington
early Saturday evening and completing
one of the best arranged, least fatiguing
and most enjoyable excursions on record.
The face of nature about Gettysburg has
been so changed since those terrible July
days of twenty—five years ago that the
soldier who fought on either side would
scarce recognize the various points of the
conflict. Yet Seminary Ridge, Culps and
Cemetery Hills, Cemetery Ridge, Little
and Big Round Top will remain the same
forever. Monuments almost innumerable
have been and are still being erected to
note the points where someheroic struggle
took place or some brave Spirit took its
flight. The Cemetery Association has
had paths and reads out through the chief
positions occupied by the Union troops,
and it is the hope and ambition of Colonel
Batcheler’s life that similar improvements
on the battle lines of the confederates
may be similarly established and main—
tained. A large number of southern
congressmen, some of whom were in the

rGettysburg fight, were present and not

the least interested visitors to that new
forever historic battlefield. Going back
in memory to the time when these fair
fields were strewn with our torn, bleeding,
(lying and dead brethren, it would be
grief unutterable. and sorrow unbearable
could we doubt that God, in His infinite
wisdom and niercy, has settled for us and
for all time the issues of the civil war;
settled-it to the acceptance and satisfac-
tion of our entire‘country and the ever-
lasting good of mankind; that in the
hearts of our new united.countrymen
there lingers no feeling other than that of
gratitude to God andatrue and abiding
love, for our- glorousUiiion' (it states and

 

 

wooden

the government our fathers ordained and
their sons sealed ii} blood on this and
many another battlefi 31d. Let the flowers
of grateful memory be abundantly strewn
upon our heroes’ graves, and every
seldiers’ monument in the land stand as a
rebuke to all who would stir up renewed
strife and bitter feelings against whom
they contended and thus render futile the
Union soldiers’ self sacrifice.
peans of patriotism and gratitude ascend
to heaven from our whole people because
the Union has been preserved, and the
glorious future assured of this the grand-
est nation of all the earth.

PERSONALS.

Mr. and Mrs. A. S. Thomas and Mr.
and Mrs. W. F. Davis, of Meriden. arrived
here Saturday.

Mrs. Platt, wife of the senator, has not
rallied from her recent illness as was
hoped, but was—able to ride out yesterday.
. The [Star of this eyening has the follow-
ing absurd item:

“Gen. Clarkson wrll probably be suc-
ceeded in the Post Oflfice Departmentby
another member of the republican national
executive committee, Mr. Sam Fesscnden
of Connecticut.
ecutive committee, it is said, will recom-
mend his appointment.” ,

The House had barely a quorum to—day
and dodged all serious business.

Senator Merrill addressed the Senate on
the silver bill.

Senator Sherman left for New York this
1). m. I

The Star says, upon what authority it
would be hard to state, that the confeder—
ate cmblems carried away from Richmond
as sacred souvenirs on the occasion of the
Lee statue unveiling, vere manufactured
in Connecticut. Surely some new manu—
facturing industry must have opened in
our state or were they wooden nutmegs.

Postmaster—General and Mrs. Wana—
maker have put their handson e cottage in
order at Cape May. It is expected that
they will spend the summer there, and
tha Mrs. Harrison will again be their
guest fora part of the season.

F. IV. Smith. Jr.. of Bridgeport, and
fl.B. Cox, of Hartford, were here last
week.

‘IIon. Sam. Fesscnden was here in
attendance upon the meeting of the
National Republican Committee, but re—
turned to Stamford Saturday night.

Mr. and Mrs. James H. Bailey left us
Decoration day for Nor-walk after an ap-
parently greatly enjoyed visrt and bridal
tour.

R. M. Rose and daughter were here last
week. The “professor” says he is not
seeking the nomination for representative
this year, and yet in our interview he
somehow left the impression that he was
not entirely averse to sitting out in the
nominating draft. With the newspaper
nan he mentions as desiring to have that
nomination waylaying him, it seems at
this distance that the professor is possibly
justified in not putting forth any frantic
efforts towards representing the town of
Nor-walk in the state legislature.

Decoration Day.

Tire Memorial Day celebration in for-
walk was, as usual, :1 success in all Its.
aSpccts. The parade started at noon, and
was an imposing and handsome one.
Heine’s full band led the‘ column which
started in front of the Athenaeum; im-
mediately after came Col. Roberts’
military cadets, whose marching was
perfection and elicited great applause.
The members of Buckingham Post, G. A.
IL, came next, then the school children
gun soldiers. The parade
marched to the Union cemetery where the
literary and decorative ceremonies took
place, and addresses were made by the
Rev. Messrs. Charles E. Torrey and W.
C. Richardson, both of which will be
printed in full in the GAZETTE next week.
The graves in other cemeteries were
decorated by special committees.

Mr. Fessenden Mentioned.

A special to the Hartford Post says that
Samuel Fessenden, the Connecticut mem-
ber of the republican national committe,
is very likely to succeed Mr. Clarkson as
first assitant postmaster general; and adds
that all the executive committee of the
republican national committee desire his
selection, as does Mr. Clarkson himself.

This is important news for Connecticut
(if true) and of course the choice would
be admirable. Mr. Clarkson has expressed
an intention to be relieved from the driv-
ing duties of the position and it is not
strange the administration has turned to
Mr. chsenden. He has a national ac
quaintance; a judgment and quick decis-
ion that make him mighty in executive
positions, and he is one ripe for promotion.
Connecticut has its ear to the ground for
later echoes of this rumor via. Hartford.—

“Did not Die at Appomattox.”

The old doctor-inc of state sovereignty
did not die at Appomattox. It is bound to
be occasionally reassertcd so long as the
federal constitution stands, and so. long as
the states have an equal vote in the
Senate. ,

Any burning issue may at any time
cause a. state or a number of states to de-
fend home rule even to the last extremity.

It is absurdly false to say that the sword
settled a principle which runs through our
traditions and precedents,lives in our con-

stitution, and tempts the people to teas.-

sert it whenever they are wronged by the
general government.

It may be that all our vexed questions
will in future be settldd at the ballot-box,
but nothing is more certain than the vigo-

rous revival 'of state sovereignty, and it is.

quite likely to be most strongly upheld by
the very states that sent millions of men

to the front to crush it in TIP-Atlanta,

One Cent Postage.

In regard to the bill recently introduced
into the House of Representatives, rcduc~
ing to one cent the postage on single rate
drop letters in cities containing not fewer
than 100,000 inhabitants, the Sun says
that while it is a move in the right direc-
tion, a wiser plan might be to wait for a
time and then make this reduction every-
where, and on all letters.

That one-cent postage will eventually
come, and will be in operation throughout
the country, cannot be doubted. Fifty
years ago the postageon a letter composed
of a single sheet was six cents, if less than
30 miles; ten cents between 30 and 80
miles; twelw: and a half cents between 80
and 150 miles; eighteen and three-fourths
cents between 150 and 400 miles; twenty-
five cent over 400 miles. The firs;
great reform came with the act of 1845,
which reduced the rate to five cents for
less than 300 miles and to ten cents for
any greater distance. Six years later
came another great reduction to three
cents for less than 3,000 miles, and six
cents for any greater distance. In recent
years we have seen the rate reduced“ to
two cents; postal cards at one cent intro-
duced; the weight allowed for single rate
doubled. The tendency, in short, has
uniformly been to make letter postage
cheaper and cheaper, and its reductiou to
one cent can only be a question of time.

City families able to keep an
cquipage can afford to dress
their coachmen in becoming
livery, and they pay hand-
somely for the outfit. Many,
however, are learning that the
livery garments we sell are
good enough; and they cost
enough less than custom work
to make it worth while saving
the difference.

In the country, where peo-
ple of modest means own car-
riages, one 'frequently sees the
coachman unlivericd. How
much neaterto dress your man
in a plain blue, green or black
coat, if not: a complete suit.
Have plain lasting buttons if
silver or gilt is too showy.
