The Riaht Man ‘for the Place‘Wanted.

An organized and well directed public
spirit in Noi'walkhas a field for activity
and progress not equalled in any spot in
Connecticut. We are not of those Who
think this town is slow or dull, or who
lack faith in its future. It is true that
our people take no thought of the advang
tages we possess, that our business men
lose themselves in their private afiairs
and give too little time to the good and
welfare of the people, that our hereditary
wealth is conservative and sometimes
obstructive to the car of progress. And
yet, Norwalk has a great future.

It is situated on the finest body of salt
water in the world, and at Wilson Point
is the finest harbor on that water, except,
perhaps, New London. It is the natural
center of the great oyster industry of the
Country, and already the increasing and
marvelous growth of that business in
recent years promises more for our good
than the carriage business gives to New
Haven, or plated ware to'Meriden.

It is an important point on the New
York and New Haven railroad, and the
terminal point, at tide water, of .the
Housalonic and New England systems.
Thus by water and by rail Norwalk and
through Norwalk a wide manufacturing
district in New England has the cheapest
and most direct water communication
with all markets, not only of this country,
but of the world. Some day ships will
clear from our port, loaded with New
England manufactures for Valpairiso
and other South American ports and for
Australia and the Indies, and return with
wool, coflec, tea, sugar, and the like for
our industries and our homes.

But we have hardly touched yet on our
adyantagcs and facilities for business.
Bosch-5 having water on our front, rail-
roads to the great commercial centers, we
have a wide farming district back of us.
We have a wholesome and abundant
water supply. We have acomplete sewer
system built for all time. We have the
finest drives in New England, both by hill
andshore. We have an interesting and
romantic colonial and revolutionary his—
bicvy. We are an ideal place for retired
gentlemen to live in. We have every—
thing to mark the town for progress, and
diversified growth both in business and
for the purposes of residence.

It is true we may boast of a solid and
satisfactory advance in population in the
last ten years, equal, for example, to that
of the city of Boston, but what is to
prevent a marvelous growth in the future
if we unite and pull together for purposes

of aggressive progress? .
Towns wun far less solid basis to stall.

with have become the centers for all time
of great industries. In looking over the
map of the world one is struck with the
fact that somehow a business takes root
in the worst possible locations. '

What could be more foolish than that
the ship building of the world should
locate on the Clyde ? It is a place almost
made by the hand of man, and at the
expenditure of millions, when other places
are naturally adapted to it. So of Cardiff for
the coal trade, and in our own country the
brass industry of Waterbury is as badly
located as possible, and so are theCollins—
ville tool works, the Meriden plated
works, and nearer by the Bradley axe
works in Weston. What could be more
unexpected than that our finest silk
ribbons should come from Scotland when
all the raw silk comes from distant Italy ?

in closer inspection we find that ' in all
these cases a few energetic men, in most
cases a single man, of indomitable pluck
has overcome all natural difficulties and
cstablislicd great industries almost- against
the decrees of late.

If this is so, what could not six high
spirited men, or one really great industrial
genius do for Norwalk, with all the
natural advantages in his favor which we
possess? Let the Board of Trade call a
special meeting.

_ Congress.

The Senate has made creditable progress
with the Tariff Bill and will probably
finish its consideration in that body within
the next few days. The House has dis-
creditably frittered away much of. its
time, neglected its calendar, and several
members dishouored their own records.
The hot weather, an all too long session
or some other untoward influence, seems
to have begotten an epidemic of rudeness
and unparliamentary conduct among
sundry of its members, which will not
inspire the admiration of the American
people. Connecticut has occasion to feel
proud of-the records of all its members
in both houses. They have remained
attentive to their. duties despite the
exhausting session. Especially is this
true of our senators. They have watched
the details of the Tariff Bill with an assid—
nity and fidelity worthy of all praise, and
it is due to Senator Platt and no dispar—
agement of any other senator, to say that
he has" without a question, been able to
exert an influence ~more servicable to the
manifold interests of his state, on;the
tariff issue, than any member of the
senate. Our Norwalk'hatters are more
than grateful to him, for his successful
efforts in embodying and' having adopted
in the new TaritT‘Bill, the duty on hats
and'lia‘tte‘rs’ materials desired and pre—
pared- by.‘_tlic—. Hatters’i*A830ciation. . “ Many
other “Connecticut" interests equally "im-i
portant and some of even greater magni-2
tude have been secured for our people by
his sagacious and unremitting efforts.

 

’ Connecticut Politics. ,

This ought to be a good year for honey,
for so extraordinary a season has not
hitherto been recorded for “bees” of the

“bonnets” have never before been so
humorously infested in any “off,” or rather
any year other than a Presidential one.
It is a gratifying fact that in this patriotic
exhibit, Norwalk is fully abreast of the
procession. She has one formidable can-
didate for Lieutenant—Governor on the
republican ticket in the person of HON.
E. J. Hum, despite his modest efforts to
play the Mayflower roll of Miles Standish
and John Alden and Priscilla. _In Hill’s
case John H. Perry made but a sorry John
Alden, and we shall not be surprised to
see our republican convention Priscilla
stick to our stalwart Hill—Miles Standish.
Then the democracy have a “dark horse,”
and a dangerous one, too, in the person of
ex-U. S. Treasurer JAMES W. HYATT as
candidate for Governor. Some Nutmeg
correspondent of the New York Sun
gives the following as a fair diagnosis of
our political condition here in Connecticut:

In a little more than a week both the
democrats and republicans will have nom-
inated state tickets.‘ Discussion on the
merits and prospects of the leading can-
didates is therefore rife. “Tom Waller is
to be the man” is the expression to be
heard on every side. There can be no
doubt but that the ex-Governor and the
ex—Cousul-General at London would make
a strong candidate if he could be induced
to accept the democratic nomination.
Since his return from abroad Governor
Waller has opened law offices in New
York city, and he is credited with saying
that he could not accept the nomination
without great personal loss His friends
have, however, been steadily at work
upon him, and their arguments and his
fondness for the excitement of a political

candidate of his party.

In fact, it is now given out that Waller
has virtually agreed to accept the nomin-
ation if it comes to him spontaneously and
with any degree of unanimity. He is,
perhaps, the most popular man personally
in the state. He is a hustler and effective
campaign speaker. If “Magnetic Tom”
Waller is nominated for Governor, “Genial
George” Sumner will receive the nomina-
tion for Lieutenant-Governor. ;_-This is
the ticket which swept the state in 1882,
and democrats say the result will be
equally gratifying this fall. .

There is likely to be considerable oppo-
sition to this ticket in the convention,
which meets in Hartford, Tuesday, Sept.
16. An effort will be made to nominate
again Luzon B. Morris, who made such a
strong fight against Governor Bulkeley
two years ago. Besides Colonel William
H. Stevenson, vice—president and general
manger of the Housatonic railroad, is
making an effort for the nomination.
These opposing forces may divide the
cc nvention so that the unanimity of action
desired by the friends of Mr. Waller may
not be had. These are quietly at work
trying to remove all obstacles to the nom-
ination of Mr. Waller by acclamation. If
they succeed it will be Waller; if not,
Morris seems now the most likely candi-
date.

In the republican camp everything
pornts to the nomination, most likely by

acc ’mat'on. ,of I 'eutenan.t.Govern_o .‘-
E. Merwin for the‘ rst place on the t1: et.

Governor Bulkeley’s intentions have, until
recently, been unknown to the workers,
and this has caused some uneasiness
among the friends of Merwin. Lately
Governor Bulkeley has said that his name
would not be presented to the convention,
and that Merwin could, have the Hartford
delegation ifhe‘ wants it.

There is little doubt that between Mer-
wm and. Waller the latter would win.
Merwin’s strength is rather negative. He
is fairly popular, because he has done no-
thing to make himself unpopular. He
lacks the positive qualities which arouse
enthusiasm and make friends who will
stick to the death. Waller is just the
opposite. He is bold, aggressive, energetic
and magnetic. While he has some ene-
mies, as all such men have, his friends are
firmly held by his strong personality, and
will work for him as they will work for
him as they would ,work for no one else.
If he is nominated Governor Waller will
whoop things up from one end of the state
to the other, and will stir his party to such
energetic action that his election will be a
forgone conclusion.

The democratic Norwalk Record, it is
to be noted, has been almost superservic-
able in urging Mr. Hill as a republican
candidate, and has been so silent about
Mr. Hyatt as its own candidate that un-
thinking democrats, who couldn’t see the
art of the silent master in all this, have
expressed their Surprise and even began
to kick against recognizing the Record as
a faithful organ of the unterrified democ-
racy. But any republican with half an
eye can see that Mr. Hyatt is too familiar
with the political racecourse to be put on
the track and speeded out of mind before
the race is to come off,and we shall not be
surprised to find that it is he who is
inspiring the Record’s advocacy of Hill
and thus seeking to divert present atten-
tion from himself by flattering our local
pride in having aNorwalk man on at least
one of the coming state tickets. Then
note how deftly and guardedly the last

way in which Mr. Hyatt’s name was , can-
vassed at- the last week’s meeting of the
democratic state committee as follows:

“The merits of Thomas M.Waller, Geo.
G. Sumner, Luzon B. Morris, William H.
Stevenson and General Skiddy were de-
tailed at length. A little matter of sur-
prise, however, was the presentation of
the name of a man who had not been
looked upon as amaspirant of guberna-
torial honors, and it is even thought now
that the name has been brought forward
without the knowledge of its owner. The
gentleman in question is James W, Hyatt,
of Norwalk, ex—United States treasurer
and ex-state bank examiner.”

Could any old campaigner have more
cunningly and adroitly revealed the, fact
that in event the Hon. T. M.‘ Waller can-
not be induced to stand for Governor, as

he has positively assured everybody ,he

honestly believe to be the truth. It" is a
.long head that gets to the windward of
'our friend Hyatt,'and the Record shows its
rpolitical wisdom and sagacity in seeking
guidance from such an expert.

0f ore fact there is no mistake. The

 

political sort, and so great a number of,

campaign may result in his being the.

Renard makes mention of the important

cannot and will not, then James W. Hyatt '
is our strongest and best man, which we.

 

political band wagon is gOingtO- be dan-
gerously crowded thisfall, and reserved
seats are likely to command a high
premium. .

P. S.—The highly imaginative, Nortvalk

correspondent of the New York Sun of
yesterday has let the catright out of the
bag in this wrse:— '
, “Hon. James W. Hyatt, United States
treasurer during Mr. Cleveland’s adminis-
tration, has consented to become a candi-
date for.tlie democratic nomination for
envernor. The news became generally
known late this (Monday) afternoon and
made
circles. While Mr. Hyatt does not seek
the office his friends believe he will prove
a most formidable opponent with, more
than a fighting chance of success. They
say that at least four counties in the state
will give him at least fifty per cent. of
their votes at the coming convention,
while Fairfleld county will be unanimous
in his support. There are rumors afloat
that his opponent in the race—Colonel
William H. Stevenson, of Bridgeport—
will withdraw in favor of Hon. Thomas
M. Waller, but those who know him lest
say that they are false. There seems no
doubt that the race for the gubernatorial
nomination will be exceedingly hot and
interesting."

We have not been able to find any one
hereabouts who was present at the “com-
motion” but have no doubt that it took
place, and that there is a good deal more
to Mr. Hyatt’s gubernatorial candidacy
than has been generally supposed.

‘4._

The Little Giant’s Ultimatum.

The question whether cit-Governor Wal-
ler would accept a nomination for Gov-
ernor if tendered by the democratic con-
vention at Hartford on the sixteenth, has
been settled beyond a doubt. In an
interview Saturday night, Mr. Waller
said :—-“I have repeated over and ma
again allIcare to say, and I have been
reported as saying things I never dreamed
of saying about the gubernotorial nomina-
tion. The state central committee knows,
the public knows and the delegation
from this city knows that I am not a can-
didate, and could not accept a nomination
if it was tendered. The democratic nom-
inee for governor will, in my opinion,
have to attend to the duties of that office
for the next two years, and I have for
that period made other engagements.”

OBITUABY.

Charles Rockwell, general freight agent
of .the Consolidated railroad, died at his
home in Southport, Tuesday noon, after
an illness of several weeks with chronic
stomach trouble. Mr. Rockwell was born

and Northampton railway.

way to take the train at Glenbrook, for
South Norwalk, when at a crossmg on the
New Canaan Railroad, she was struck by

years of age.

Death of Captatn Stevens.
William M. Stevens, who was recently
elected captain of Co. F, ,C. N. G., met

withafrightful death last Friday night. ‘

He went to his home, 37 Main street, at
about six o’clock to precure an umbrella,
intending to go to the shirt factory to
escort'his mother home, as it was raining
steadily. Finding all the doors locked,
hemOnnted the outside stairs in the rear
of the block and attempted to raise the
Sash of the second story window a few
feet to the right of the stairs. The win~
dow sill, stair railing, etc. being thorough-
ly wet and slippery, he was unable to
gain a secure foothold on making the
hazardous step, and, loosing his grip, he
fell with a crash, onto a pile of empty
kerosene barrels 24 feet below. The
crash and his moans were héard by some
of the neighbors and he was speedily
picked up and carried upstairs to his
room and several doctors were summoned.

His injuries were examined, as well as
the immediate requirements of 'the case,
and his intense sufferings would admit,
and it was at once manifest to the attend-
ing physicians that he was fatally hurt.
His lower lip was split open to the 'chin

and one side hung down over his chin.
There was a horrible cut extending

almost from car to car under his chin, and
the territfic shock had broken his set of
false teeth into fragments. He suffered
most, however, from internal injuries in
the region of his chest, which undoubtedly
caused his death. Everything that med-
ical skill could suggest was done for his
relief and his sufl’erings Were alleviated by
means of hypodermic injections. He sur-
vived the night, with periods of conscious-
ness, during which he spoke of his terrible
fail and the extent of his injuries, and
died at about 6.30 Saturday morning,
apparently in intense agony.

Deceased was 29 years of age, and un-
married. He had been a member of 00.
F since his first enlistment in 1881, and
had risen through the various ranks of
promotion from private to Captain, to
which he was elected by vote of the com-
pany on the resignation of Captain A. A.
Bette, a couple of months ago. He was
an enthusiastic militiamen, deeply in-
terested in the service, and was said to be
a thorough and competent tactician. He

was a native of Norwalk, and was a few .

years ago associated in business with his
father, Mr. Sherman Stevens. At the
time of his death he was employed as a
journeyman painter.

The funeral took place yesterday after-
noon, at the Congregational church, and
was a large and imposing one, the remains
being encased in a handsome casket of
my, 1 plush velvet, with silver trimmings,
furniShed by Jennings, the obst ’0: which
was met jointly by Pilgrim Council of the
American Mechanics, and Company F,
C. N. G.

The funeral procession. was headed by
tho Amorians drum corps, followed by
the drum corps of Co’s. D and F, playing
dirges, Co’s. F and D and members of
the militia from out of town, under
command of ,Lieut.-Col. Crowe, ex mem—
bers of-Co. F unner command of ex—Capt.
A. A. Belts. Pilgrim Council, 0. U. A.
M., and delegations from councils of the
same order in South Norwalk, New
Canaan, Stamford, Greenwich, and other
places. Six linc officers of the regiment
and six members of Co. Facted as pall
bearers. It was one of the most; largely
atteneed funerals ever held in town.

All Hail Maine!

If glorious old Vermont, where the
Republican star never sets, fell below her
highest water mark, grand old granite
ribbed and Atlantic thrashed Maine has
sent a tidal swell of victory to cheer the
hearts of Republicans all over the Union.
Brave and impregnable “Tom” Reed is
reelected by an unexpectedly large plu~
rality, as are the Republican candidates
for Governor and the three other Repub—
lican congressmen. All bail to Maine and
to all her patriotic sons.
