The Result in Connecticut.

As at present. advised our legislature will
certainly be republican on joint ballot by
at least eight to ten majority. The people
having failed to elect a, Governor by a
majority vote and the legislature being
republican ensure the election of General
Mcrwin. In other words Judge Morris
having failed to get a majority of all the
votes cast the election goes to the legisla-
ture, and the legislature selects and elects
from the two highest candidates, whomso-
ever it chooses, and being a republican
legislature 1i}. will choose the republican
candidate for election to the gubernatorial
office. "" ‘

There are likely to be many contests for
the legislature growing our of irregular
rulings in regard to ballots, similar to those
at Wilton, East Nor-walk, Bridgeport and
other places. These irregularities will no

I. . . .
doubt be fairly and jiidicnilly corrected and
lead to such necessary amendments to Oirr
voting law as this year’s experiences have
made so apparent and necessary.

In discussing this general subject. the
Palladium gives these sensible views :—

“NO court. has power in advance of the
general assembly to decide whether the
Bridgeport votes, for instance, Were proper-
ly rejected. The general assembly, through
its committee, opens the boxes and makes
its findings. With a democratic Senate, the
possrbility of a legislative deadlock is not
imposs1ble, though the Palladium is confi-
dent. that our law makers will rise above
partisan consrderations and send the matter
to the courts for early settlement. In the
interpretation of the secret ballot act the
findings of the supreme court-are, of course,
incontrovertible. It is consoling to think
that should the election continue a subject
of uncertatnty until the convening of the
legislature that body can promptly refer
legal complications to the supreme court,
send llS investigating committee about the
state, if necessary, and the main body con—
tiniie With its routine business. In the
neantime Governor Bulkelcy will continue
busrness at the 01d stand.”

Senator Sherman‘s Views.

Sen itOi‘ John Sherman, of Ohio. “'“s- in
New York last week, and to a Train-7w
reporter he said : _

“Major McKinb-y ‘V‘I’ldc a splendid cau-
vass and a magnuwent run and the
niajor’s chances for being elected governor
next year Were good. As to the Congres-
sional elections, Iliave seen such convul-
sions a down times or more.but they have
had no permanent effect. In 1873. when
I was secretary of the treasury, we lost
the House and Senate both; but two years
later we rallied and recovered all that we
had lost and elected a Republican Presi-
dent besides. I do not regard the present
situation with apprehension.
will be wiser by next year and better able
to pass upon the 1ssues.’f

Regarding the causes which had brought
republican defeat he said: “The McKinley
bill was growing stronger as the campaign
advanced. It isa measure that is greatly
misunderstood. It really reduces taxa—
tion and while it increases the duty in
some instances its general effect is greatly
to reduce the amount collected from cus-
toms. I think that the workings will be
found to be hencficral to the countiy and
when the people find this out, as they are
likely to do before the next Congress is
chosen and the next president elected,
they will cast their votes accordingly."

The Census.

The GAZETTE has received a bulletin
from the census bureau, giving the popu—
lation by states and territories. Other
bulletins WIII be issued at frequent inter—
vals during the dext few months as the
work of perfecting the compilations pro—
gress. At the present stage it is shown
that the population of the United States
on June. 1, 1890, as shown by the first
count of persons and families, exclusive
of white persons in Indian Territory,
Indians on rescrvationn, 'and Alaska,
was 02,480540. These figures may be
slightly changed by later and more cx-
iict compilations. but such changes will
not be material. In 1880 the population
was $0,155,783. The absolute increase
of the population in the ten years inter—
vening was 12,324,757, and the percent-
age of increase was 24.57. In 1870 the
population was stated as 38,558,371.
According to these figures the absolute
increase in the decade between 1870 and
1890 was 11,597,012, and the percentage
of increase was 30.08.

The Journal says :-~TIIC course of the
batters in this city and Daiibury in voting
for candidates who never raised a finger
for the benefit of their trade, is inexplic-
ablc. But a short time ago nearly every
journeyman hatter in the country, peti-
tioned of his own free will and accord,
after a full, fair and open statement of the
facts and figures, for an increase in the
duty on imported hats. Yet, on Tuesday
last, a very large number of batters voted
for men who have no interest whatever in
their welfare and voted against those who
had labored earnestly in their behalf. Had
it not been for the usual “trading off,”
practised up town by the democrats, who
sacrificed their representatives to gain
votes for Mr. Seymour, not one of the
republican representatives would have
been elected. That the new tariff on im-
ported goods will work beneficially to
every batting district is an undoubted
fact. The hatter-s, having received all the
benefits they asked for, coolly kicked

down the ladder which raised them. This.

may be good politics, but it is not very
grateful. Gratitude, however, is not an
mportant factor in partisan politics.

A Family of Landlords.

From an elaborate article in the Hotel
Gazette we extract the following reference
to Mr. Wm. H. Earle, our late fellow citi-
zen, who recentlywent to New York to
assume the management Of the Park avc«
1111': Hotel :

The Earles are a famous family of hotel
men, and Wm. H. Earle, the senior mem-
ber of the firm of Earle & Son, is probably
the most successful in the family. William
H. and his father. Wm. P. Earle, were the
founders of Earle’s Hotel, Canal and Centre
streets, New York, which they opened in
1861, and managed as proprietors success-
fully, both retiring with a fortune. One of
the sons, Ferdinand P. Earle, succeeded his
father and brother at the Canal street house
and now owns it. Ferdinand, or, as he is
now better known, Gen. Earle. is also pro-
prietor of the Nornrandie, at Seabright, N.
J., a fashionable summer resort, and will
be the proprietor of Mr. Astor‘s new hotel
on the northeast corner Of Fifty-ninth street
and Fifth avenue (when built) and which
will probably be called the Waldorf. The

brother, William IL, 'will thus be the pro-
prietor of four very large hotels.

Mr. Eugene Earle, another brother of the
senior proprietor of the Park A venue, is
the owner and proprietor of the Burlington,
Riehfield Springs. N. Y.

.Thougli Mr. William H. Ear‘e has been
out» of the hotel business many years. he
comes to New York from Nor-walk, Conii.,
(where he has resided on his estate for
many years), with ripe experience. under—
standing the hotel business in all its varied
details, both the front and back of the
house, as the terms are now applied to
modern hotel keepinw. He is in the full
vigor Of manhood, only 53 years of age and
proposes to spend $100,000 in improving
and reconstructingthc Park Avenue Hotel,
and of making another fortune with the as-
sistance of his sons, Arthur G.Earleand De-
Forest Earle,one of whom he has taken into
partnership; the other son soon to be ad-
mitted.

Y. M. C. A. Notes.

Despite the bad weather of last Sunday,
over 200 attended the song sevice in the
large ball. The exercises were conducted
by President Ambler, and the orchestra
rendered excellent music for the singing.
Rev. J. K. Folwell, of Westfield, N. J.,
delivered an address upon “The War Cry
of Faith,” and the association work was
presented in a few words by the general
secretary.

Next Sunday afternoon Rev. C. M.
Pegg, of East Norwalk, will address the
young men at 4 o’clock.

Tickets can be procured at either Pin—
neo’s, Plaistet’s or the association rooms
for the remainder of the entertainment
course, for $1.20, and it is hoped that
many will avail themselves of this oppor-
tunity.

The regular session of the gymnasium
class will be held this evening at 8 O‘clock,
and Mr. Manning would like to have
every one who intends joining the class
present at this session. The new lockers
are also ready for use, and can be rented
at the rate of $1.00 per year, not meie
than two persons to be allowed the use of
one locker. All wishing them should
apply to the general secretary at once.

The Waterbury American Of Wednesday
said : There were two attempts at fraud
in the fourth ward Tuesday afternoon. A
man entered, procured an envelope and
appeared at the ballot box. There he was
informed that he had voted before, where-
upon hc started away with the envelope.
One of the moderators stopped trim, took
away hrs envelope and kicked him out.
If the envelope could be procured, the
possessor could sell his vote, the man buy-
ing it could see him put it in the envelope
seal it and pass it through into the booth,
procuring still another enveIOpe and thus
keep one ahead for unscrupulous purposes.

, A little later an even bolder attempt was

made. Two men procured envelopes. A
had voted in the second ward, B had :11-
rcady voted in the fourth. On reaching
the ballot box A was apparently surprised
to find that he (lid not belong to this ward
and at once gave up his envelope with an
innocent air. B was informed tliatlic had
already voted. He said he had'recalled
the fact and was not trying to vote. No
envelope was in Sight. He also attempted
to pass on with a bland smile. But an
officer stopped him, demanded a search
and the superfluous envelope was taken
from the man’s pocket after repeated de-
nials by him. The moderators did not at
the time seem inclined to push the matter,
so no arrests were made.~

A correspondent: in the Nation has con-
tributed the interesting information that
was dam, signifies a small brass coin cur-
rent in Persia and India and worth about
a cent of our money. He adds that the
expression “not worth a dam" was first
used by Englishan trading in the East,
to express their sense of a thing’s worth -
lessncss. We recall nothing in the history
of profanity of more importance, or likely
to be more revolutionizing than this dis-
covery in language use.

 

About the first important business of
the incoming legislature—after getting
acquainted-will be to determine, for the
edification of a frantically anxious people,
who will write the next Fast Day procla—
mation. '

The New York papers in a dispatch
from New Haven, attempting to quote
from the versatile Lynde Harrison, call
him “Judge Lynch Harrison.” “Sich is

woodcock and partridges are unusually

owing to the KcKinley bill no doubt.

of the battle for the “parallel,” with im-
patient interest and speculation.

The Two Mysteries.

In the middle of the room,-in its white

i coffin, lay the dead child, a nephew of the

' poet. Near to it, in a great chair, sat

Walt Whitman, surrounded by little ones,

and holding a beautiful little girl on his

lap. She looked wondering’l‘y at the spec—

tacle of death, and then inquiringly into

the old man’s face. “You don’t know

what it is, do you, my dear “.9” said he, and

added, “We don't either.”

We know not what it is, dear. this sleep so
deep and still ',

The folded hands, the awful calm, the check
so pale and chill ;

The lids that will not lift again, though we may
call and call;

The strange, white solitude ot'pcace that settles
over all.

We know not what it means. dear. this deso-

, late heart pain,

This dread to take our daily way, and wall: in
it again ;

We Inow not to what other sphere the loved
who leave us go,

Nor why we’re left to wonder still, nor why we
do not know.

But this we know: Our loved and dead, ifiliey
should come this day——

Should come and ask us “What is life?” not
one of us could say.

Life is a mystery as deep as ever death can be,

Yet, Oh, how dear it. is to us, this life we. live
and see.

Then might they say—these vanished ones—
and blessed is the thought :

“So death is sweet to us, beloved ! though we
lll‘ty show you naught ;

We may not to the quick reveal the mystery OI
death—

Ye cannot tell us if ye would, the mystery of
breath.”

The child who enters life comes not with
knowledge or intent,
SO those who enter death must go as little
children sent.
Nothing is known. But I believe that God is
overhead;
And as life is to the living, so death is to the
dead . DODGE.

Thanksgiving, 1890.

The President on Saturday afternoon,
8th inst, issued the following Thanks-
giving proclamation : .

By the grace and favor of Almighty God
the people of this nation have been led to
the closing days of the passing year, which
has been full of the blessrngs of peace and
the comforts of plenty. Bountiful com-
pensation has come to us for the work of
our minds and of our hands in every
department of human industry.

Now, therefore, I, Benjamin Harrison,
President of the United States of America,
do hereby appoint Thursday, the 27th day
of the present month of November, to be
observed as a day Of prayer and thanks-—
giving, and I do invite the people upon
that day to cease from their labors, to
meet in their accustomed houses of wor-
ship and to join in rendering gratitude
and praise to Our beneficent Greater for

 

the rich blessings He has granted to us as

a nation and invoking the continuance of
His protection and grace for the future. I
commend to my fellow citizens the privil—
ege of remembering the poor, the home—
less and the sorrowful. Let us endeavor
to merit the promised recompense Of
charity and the gracious acceptance of our
praise.

In testimony whereof I have hereunto
set my hand and caused the seal of the
United States to be affixed.

Done at the city of Washington, this 8th
day of November, in the year of our Lord
one thousand eight. hundred and ninety,
and of the independence of the United
States the one hundred and fifteenth.

BENJAMlN HARRISON.

Gov. Bulkclcy on Monday issued his
proclamation, which is as follows :

“In grateful recognition of the manifold
mercies which Divrne Providence has be-
stowed upon the pcople of this state dur-
ing the year now drawing to a close and
that we may not be unmindful of Him who
has not dealt with us after our sins, but
has continued unto us those unnumbered
blessings which from generation to genera-
tion have made us a free, happy and pros-
perous people, I hereby appoint and set.
apart Thursday, the 27th iiist., as a day of
public thanksgiviving and praise to be Ob-
served by all in suitable religious devo—
tions, in acts of thankfulncss, and in praise
and in manifestations of charity and kind—
ness to those among us who are in pover—
ty, affliction or distress.”

Republicans have no cause to complain
of the action of their leaders in congress
during the last year. It was strong, brave
and enlightened action which will bear
the test of experience. The party has
been temporarily defeated, and the con-
trol of the next House seized by the op-
position ; but the great measures which
have been enacted or are still before con-
gress will inevrtahly promote the welfare
of the country and make republican suc-
cess two years hence a certainty. That
success will be powerfully stimulated by
democratic blundcring and incompetence
in the lower house during the transition

Congressman Charles A. Russell goes
back to Washington with a plurality of
1,010. The terrible duty on pearl buttons
seems to have brought Mr. Russell about
300 votes more than he had two years
ago.

ED. GAZETTE—Some forty odd years
ago, while several of us whigs Were dis—-
cussing the result of an election just
passwd, and in which we seemed from the
latest returns to have been successful,
“Long” John Brown came along from
Guinea Hollow, a suburb of our town, and
whose citizens Were generally of the baSer
sort, and expressed himself thiisly:
“Well, if every other town in the state ha
gone wliig I want yer to undertand that
Guinea Holler is dcm- cratic.” This re-
mark will now very aptly apply to the rc—
publiczins of this towu, for every one on
their ticket was elected, but would not
have been if there had not been a split in
the ranks of our opponents. The demo-
cratic-prohibitiOii wing of their party ran
a separate ticket. If they had not, we
republicans would liaVc been swamped.
The temporary democratic triumphs
throughout the country are only the tri-
umph ot ignorance. Two years hence the
masses of the people will get their eyes
open and will see the light, and reverse
their present action. ’I‘ROWBRIDGE.

so close tO hand work in shoe-

can distinguish between them.
and he must rip the shoe to

to understand that dealers can
sell machine for hand made
without much risk Of detec-
tion, while their consciences
(if they happen to possess any)
are soothed by the knowledge
that the shoe is just as dura-
ble as if hand—made, and has
yielded a much larger profit.

A GREAT AMERICAN MAGAZINE. l MEflflllls BIHNESS cull-Ea: !

THE success OF “THE CENTURY” AND rrs PLANS
FOR 1891. -

The Century Magazine is now so well known
that to .tell of its past success seems almost an
old story. The New York Tribune has said
that it and its companion, St.NichoIas for
Young Folks. issued by the same house. “are
read by every one person in thirty of the coun-
ti'y’s imputation?» and large editions of both
are sent beyond the seas. It is an interesting
fact that- a few years ago it was found that
seven thousand c ipies of the Century went to
Scotland—quite a. respectable edition in itself.
The question in England is no longer “Who
reads an American book ?” but "Who does not
see the American magazines '3"

A few years ago the Century about doubled
its circulation with the famous War Papers, by
General Grant and others. adding many more
readers later with the Lincoln History and
Kennan’s thrilling articles on the Siberian
Exile System. One great feature of 1891 is to

e .

"Tun GOLD HUNTERS OF CALIFORNIA,”

describing that remarkable movement to the
gold fields in ’49, in a series of richly illustra-
ted articles written by survivors, including the
narratives of men who went to California by
the different routes, accounts of the gold dis—
coveries, life in the mines, the work of the vig-
ilance committees (by the chairman of the
committees) etc., etc. General Fremont’s last
writing was done for this series. In Novem-
bernrppears the opening,r article, "The First
Emigrant Train to California,”—crosi=ing the
Rockies in 18ll,—by General liiilivell. a pi-
oneer of pioneers. Thousands of American
families who had some relative or friend
arnong"the Argonauts of ’19” will be inter-
ested in these papers.

MANY ornna GOOD Thrxcs ARE course—-

the narrative of an American’s travels through
that unknown land Thibet (for 700 miles over
ground never before trod by a. white man); the
experiences of Escaping War Trisonei‘s; Amer-
ican newspapers des-.-ribed by well known
Journalists: accounts of the great Indian
Fighters, Custer and others; personal anec-
dotes of Lincoln, by his private secretaries ;
“The Faith Doctor,” it novel by Edward Eg-
glcston, with a. wonderfully rich programme of
novelcttes and stories by most of the leading
writers, etc.-

It is also announced that the Century has
purchased the right to print, before its appear-
ance in France or any other country. extracts
from advance sheets of the famous Talieyrand
Memoirs, which have been secretly preserved
for half a. century—40 be first given to the
world through the pages of an Amer-
ican magazine. All Europe is eagerly await-
ing the publication of this personal history of
Taltlyrand—greatest of intrigucrs and diplo—
ma 9..

The November Century begins the volume,
and new subscribers should commence with
that issue. The subscription price, (Si 00)
maybe remitted directly to the publishers,
The Century 00.. 33 East 17th St., New York,
or single copies maybe purchased of any news-
dealer. The publishers offer to send a free
sample copy—a. recent back number—to any
one desiring it. ‘

 

1891.
Harper’s Magazine.
ILLUSTRATED.

The important series of papers on South
America. by Theodore Child, will be continu-
ed in Hannah’s MAGAZINE during the greater
partzot‘ the year 1891. The articles on South-
ern unlitornia, by Charles Dudley Warner,
will also be continued. Among other note-
worthy attractions will be a novel by Charles
Egbert Ci'addock; a. collection of orlginai
drawings by W. M. Thackery, now published
for the first time; a. novel written and illus-
trated by George DuMaurier; a novelette by
William Dean Howels; and a series of papers
on London by \Valier Besant.

In the number and variety of illustrated pa-
pers and other articles on subjects of timely
interest, as well as in the unrivalled charac-
ter ofits short stories, poems, etc., HARPER’S
MAGAZINE will continue to maintain that
standard of excellence for which it has been
so long distinguished.

Some people agree with the Sox’s opinions
about men and things, and some people don’t
but everybody likes to get hold of the new spa-
per which is ' never dull and never afraid to
speak its mind.

Democrats know that for twenty years THE
SUN has fouglitiii the lrorit line for Democratic
princrples, iicvcr wavering or weakening in its
loyalty to the true interests of the party it
serves with fearless intelligence and disinter-
csted vigor. At times opinions have differed
as to the best means of accomplishing the com-
mon purpose; it is not '1 HE SUNS fault if-it has
seen further into the millstone.

Eighteen hundred and ninety-one will be a
great year in American ,politics, and every-
body should rcad THE SUN.
