Still A-Booming.
The circulation boom of the DAILY.
GAZETTE during the month of Febru-
ary has exceeded even the: unprece-
dented boom of January. It may be
asserted withsai'ety that there is no
newspaper in Norwalk whose circula-
tion increase during the past three
months has been as large as that of the
DAILY GAZETTE, and we believe our
advertisers are cognizant of the fact
that the “hustling daily” is universally
read all over the town.

The Silver Question.
The two points of view on the silver
1 question as presented in the majority
and minority reports of the House com-
mittee on coinage, weights and meas-
ures are so radically different that the
party in control of the House of Rep-
resqitatives will find no half-way
ground. It is either to act onapcr-
plexinga-if not dangerous question or
not to act. To act is to precipitate at
once political and financial embarr ass-
ment. To postpone is to incur the ire

An impressive Scene.
"I hat was an impressive scene that was
witnessed at Philadelphia 011 Monday,
just before the food-bearing steamship
Indiana, for Russia. laden with 3,300
tons of provisions for the Starving peas-
antry sailed away. The wharves were
black with people, addresses were made
by Catholic, Episcopal, Methodist and
other church officials, including Arch-
bishop Ryan. There were choruses by
1'20 trained singers,and amidst the toot-
. ing of steam_,whistles and the firing of
cannon the steamer moved off on her
long trip.
Had a mirage of the scene been de—
picted on the walls of the House of
Representatives at Washington, many
a representative would have hung his
head with shame.

A Chance for Women Designers.
-~The board of lady managers of the
World’s Columbian Commission are in
want of an appropriate official badge,
and as is entirely propcrand befitting
under the circumstances have invited
the women designers only of the coun-
try to make competitive sketches for
this purpose.
The design must be about one inch
in diameter, and may be drawn in out-
line or painted in water-color. The
legend, “Board of Lady Managers lot
the World’s Columbian Commission,
created by act of Congress, U. S. A.,
organized 1890,” must be shown on the
outer edge of the badge, and a space
provided for the insertion of the name
of the State represented by the wearer.
The president can only offer the small
honorarium of $50 for the accepted de-
sign, but there will be honor in the-
competition if no great pecuniary ’com-
pensaticn. All drawings or sketches
must bear a motto, be accompanied by
a letter, giving name and address, and
must be sent in by March 15, 1892, ad-
dressed to Mrs. Ralph Trautmann,
chairman committee on badge, 27 Beek-
man Place, New York city.

The Outlook..
The electoral college, .which will
(choose the next President. will be com-
posed of 444 members, of which 223
. williconstitute a majority. The college
has been increased from 401 to 444 by
the admission of new states and the in-
crease of the population. Of the 43
new members, conceding that Montana
is Democratic, the Republicans have
,5 gained 33 and the Democrats 10; this
A estimate ls based on the vote cast fer
President and territorial delegates in
1888. Since the last Presidentml elec-
tion, however, seven states that gave
i
their electbral votes for Harrison have
elected wholly, or in part, Democratic
state officers, viz: Iowa, Massachusetts,
Michigan, Nebraska, Ohio, Pennsyl-
vania and Wisconsin. Ohio has return-
ed to the Republican fold, Iowa and
Massachusetts re-elected their Demo—
cratic governors, while the others when-
ever theyhave held elections showa dis-
position to return‘to their ' first love.
Of these seven states,. the only one
about which the Republicans need feel
any anxiety is Wisconsin, which is
much more likely to go Democratic
.than is generally supposed. It should
be noted that presidential electors will
be chosen in Michigan by districts
which will probably give the Demo-
crats 4 out of 11 electors.
If the Democrats win at the next
election they must carry every state
they carried in 1888 and both New York
and Indiana. 'If the Republicans ex-
pect to elect their candidate they must
carry every state they carried in 1888
and either New York or Indiana—they
cannot afford to lose both.
011 the eve of everyPresideutial elec-
tion we hear a great deal of talk about
“ doubtful states ” which excites the
hopes and fears of the multitude. In
the last Presidential election there were
but three doubtful states, Connecticut,
Indiana and New York : in the contest
about to.'open there will be but five
doubtful states Connecticut, Indiana,
Montana, New York and Wisconsin,
all the others will certainly go as they
went in 1888.
As to candidates and a party policy
he Republicans seem to have the ad-
vantage, that is they are not torn by
factions and diverse views on economic
questions. The withdrawal of' the giant
Blaine practically makes the calling of
President Harrison sure. On the tariff
the Republicans are well agreed ; on
“free silver ” the dissentients are
neither numerous or influential.
On the other hand the Democratic
party is torn by factions, particularly
in a state that they must win, or all is
lost. The constancy of Mr. Cleveland’s
friends and the loyalty of Mr. Hill's ad-
herents threatens to make a wide breach
through which the Republican hosts
can march in triumph. On the silver
question the Democracy are by
means agreed, and this questionn is
more difficult to settle than the Hill-
Cleveland feud. Theie is a half score
of able Democrats who have as many
brains and more tact and gratitude
than Grover Cleveland, and who, as
statesmen tower far above David B.
Hill, upon whom the Democratic party
could unite to a man, as a candidate,
but the silver question goes further
than the candidate : it affects men’s
pockets for weal or woe,'or at least they
think it does, and herein lies the chief
peril to the Democracy; it would be
cowardly to leave the question unde-
cided, anda decision one way or the
other will weaken their available forces.
At present the Republicans seem to
have the brightest outlook; they will
have a candidate who perhaps may not
be completely in touch with his party
and who cannot set on fire the Repub-
lican hosts as would a Blaine, but still
one who has been proven to be neither
rash nor ignorant, and under whose
banner all elements would unite. On
the tariff all Republicans would agree,
and the “free silver ” heretics are in a
minority. ‘
To a Democratic onlooker all. is con-
fusion and turmoil ; rival candidates
striving for supremacy ; silver men pit-
ted against anti-silver men; and while
demanding tariff reform quarreling
over the methods to attain it. It looks
very much as if Benjamin Harrison was
good for another four years, unless the
Democratic hosts get together as to
candidates and measures.
