Mr. George Ticknor Curtis is. uni- ' versally recognized as one of the lead- ing exponents of American constitu- tional law. His ability and integrity are unquestioned ; his familiarity with the fundamental statutes and the legal history of this country are probably unsurpassed among living publicists. Mr. Curtis is a Democrat. His opin- ions on points of constitutional inter- pretation have been zealously upheld and warmly applauded by the Demo- cratic and Mugwump press. These facts add weight and significance to his public condemnation of the free trade platform of the Democratic party. Mr. Curtis frankly states that in vot- ing for the resolution declaring pro- tection unconstitutional the members of the Chicago convention “either showed dense ignorance of American political history or they manifested a purpose to win votes by deceiving the voters.” “I cannot,” he adds, “at the biddfng of these gentlemen, unlearn the lesson ’of my whole life.” The sources from which to derive interpre- tations of the Constitution are, Mr. Curtis points out, not to be found in' recent political speeches, but “in the interpretations given to the Constitu- tion by the first Congress, by Washing- ton’s administration and by the suc- ceeding administrations of Jefferson, Madison, John Quincy Adams and Jackson. These authorities all held that protection to American industry was not only constitutional, but the first duty of the American Government. The present Democratic attitude on the tariff is in direct opposition to every doctrine of economic statesmanship pro- mulgated by the fathers of the Repub- lic.” Mr. Curtis’ declaration for protection is proof that he values his Americanism more than his Democracy. His right ' to speak with authority cannot be de- nied by his own party. The courage- ous and patriotic action of this emi- nent Democrat will exert a potent in- fluence on the side of protection in the pending campaign. Peary’s Successful Expedition. Everybody will be heartily glad to read of the return of Lieutenant Peary and his heroic wife, along with all but one of the members of the Arctic ex- ploring party sent out by the Academy of Natural ' Sciences. The safe re- turn of the party promptly on .time marks the Peary expedition as excep- tional, not only in the comparative ease and Comfort with which its members withstood the hardships of the Arctic winter, but in what they accomplished. Lieutenant Peary, with one compan- ion and a sledge team, made a journey of more than 600 miles due northeast from his winter quarters at the head of Melville Bay, and claims to have reach- ed the highest point yet penetrated by ‘ civilized man on the east coast of Green- land, Independence Bay, in latitude 82 north. The long journey and return were‘ made without accident and so nicely timed as to greet the rescue party, from the Kite while they were erecting the second signal pole. In a general way it was known that the Peary party have made a valuable collection, which will add much to the world’s knowledge of the geography, geology and ethnology of this far north- ern section which will be added to the rich collection already possessed by the Academy of Natural Sciences. Of the items in detail and of the events and discoveries of Lieutenant Peary’s long and lonely journey nothing can be ' known until he is ready to publish a de- tailed statement. For the present the public will be content. to rejoice that Peary and his party are safe, but there will be an eager looking forward to the publication of the results of what all will agree to have been one of the most daring expeditions ever undertaken by man. ‘ There is nothing so successful as suc— cess, but an intelligent consideration of the plan of the Peary expedition shows it to have been the most practical ever devised. The Kite, a steam whaling . vessel, took the party in the midsum- mer of 1891 to the head of Melville Bay, as far north as a ship, can usually go with safety, landed it with materials for a house, fuel enough to keep the party warm during the long Arctic winter and provisions sufficient for a period of a year and a half. The party put up the house and rest- ed in comfort during the long Arctic ’, . . j—-—-.-—- . ' ‘ Parties desmng tickets to Washing- winter and Lieutenant Peary. with one companion vigorous . in health, made ~ the long journey over the ice and snow, their provisions and_ equipment carried . by a dog team, the one methodof loco- motion natural to that ice-bound sec- tion. There was no risk of- vessels ‘ crushed in the ice, the party was too ‘ small to exhaust its store _of provisions ’ and die of starvation, and while the ._‘ journey must have been lonely beyond mated that the j.humau power to imagine, it is 638!- to see now that it was made with the mini- mum of danger. Lieutenant Peary deserves the high- est credit for the boldness of his design and the courage displayed in its execu- tion. There will be those who will con- tend that the results of any further ex- ploration of the Arctic regions will not warrant either the risk or the expense incurred, but both the risk and expense will be incurred as long as there is any- thing left to be discovered. . This be- ing the case, it is' best that the risk shall be reduced to the lowest possible point by the adoption of a method of exploration best adapted to this section. Lieutenant Peary’s method seems to meet this requirement, and is likely to be adopted and improved upon in all future Arctic explorations. For the present Lieutenant Peary and his heroic wife will be the social and scientific lions cf the season, and deservedly so. It may have been an unnecessary risk for the one to take or the other to share, but the world will rightly admire the courage of the bus: band and the constancy of his wife in sharing his danger. There is not any too much of either displayed in these times, and the example of Lieutenant Peary and his wife will have a stimu- lating effect upon a luxurious and ease- loving age.

May Congratulate themselves. —One firm who surely have cause ’to bless their good fortune is the house of W. B. Hall & Co., of Bridgeport. They had placed large orders in Paris this summer, through their representative, for handsome novelties in silks and dress goods. The fear was that these goods might be detained in quarantine owing to sickness on board, which might entail a loss of the sale of these goods to Messrs. Hall & Co. The steamer bringing them, however, was passed through without delay, no sick. ness being on board, and discharged her cargo. at once. The o'oods will be on exhibition in a few days and em- brace novelties in silk and woolen fab- rics running as high as $10a yard in value. It.will pay any body to make a trip to Bridgeport just to see them. ShOuld be Registered Now. The state treasurer has this year re- ceived a larger amount of securities for registration and the payment of the two-mill state tax, under the invest- ment law of 1889. than in any year .ex- cept the first year since the law went into operation. Many of the securities which have been held by the owners for several years have been presented for registration for the first time and it is assumed have not been scheduled in any tax hat in town at the higher rate of taxation. In fact, persons pre- senting securities at the state treasur- er’s office recently have odmitted that they had not previously listed them for taxation anywhere. In this connection it is well for hold‘- ers of securities to remember that un- less their securities are registered in the office of the state treasurer and the state tax of two mills per annum paid before October 1, such securities must be included in a tax list to the assessors of the town in which the owner resides. At the Superior Court. ' In the Criminal Superior Court yes- terda Otto Gastner, who on J une 27th burg arized the house of Morris E.

An adjourned meeting of the Court of Burgesses was held last evening, the Warden and all other members of the Court,with the exception of Green. be- ing present. The first business introduced was that in reference to the petition of the Tramway company for a new layout on Wall street and also a layout from Isaacs street to the foot of Spring Hill. Burgess Buckley remarked on the motion to grant the prayer of the peti- tioners, in substance as follows : It was not an ordinary question the Court had been called upon to decide ; nothing could be said against the merits of the Tramway; people of Norwalk were 1n favor of 1t, and he himself thought the building of the _same would be of pub- lic benefit. Thirt years ago the legis- lature had grants a charter to the N or- walk Horse railway and it had proved to be a public convenience and. a suc- cessful enterprise. A later legislature had granted the Tramway company a charter and a Court of Burgesses had granted them a layout, but as specifi- cally prov1ded for the layout was not satisfactory, and asked for a change in the same; it devolved on_ the present court to take some action ;' did - not want to have it go on record that the present court were cowards and afraid to take action in the matter ; called for a prompt vote in the matter; did not want to make a mistake or involve the borough; should act entirely for the public good.. To expedite matters ought to rescind or amend the former vote, and to that end offered the fol- lowmg resolution: RESOLVED—That the former vote of the Court of Burgesses giving the Norwalk Tram- way company a layout be so amended by the Court of Burgesses that we can proceed to grant the rayer of _the petitioners as em- bodied m t e resolutmn for a new layout. The motion was seconded by Bur- gess Squires, and a vote taken which resulted in its defeat. Burgess Adams then presented the followmg: Whereas, the Norwalk Tramway Company, having applied to this Court at a meeting held Sept. 7th, 1892, for a change of layout through Wall street from Isaac street to the junction of Knight street, and a layout from Isaac street through Wall street to the junc- tion of Belden avenue, and thence from Belden avenue to Spring H111 road. RESOLvED—That it isbelieyed by this Court, that a layout having been given by a former Court. from Isaac street to the junction of Knight _ltreet ; we have no authority to change it, and therefore decline to make a change. The resolution was passed with but one dissenting vote. _ The followmg resolution was also passed : anonvED—That whereas the Norwalk Tram- way Company has made afiplication to this Court to fix and determine t c direction of the street With reference to the center line of said Companyfs track upon which it may be laid, commencing on the center line. as given to said Company on Wall street at the intersec- tion of Isaac street. and running thence along Wall street to Belden avenue and through Belden avenue to Spring Hill road ; and fur- ther makes application that this Court to fix the grade n on which the tracks of said Com- pany be lax , therefore, we, the Court of Bur- gesses of the Borough of Norwalk pursuant to the power conveyed upon us by the charter of said Company. do hereby fix and determine that the center. me of the tracks of said Com- pan commencing at said pomt in Wall street at t e Intersection of Isaac Place, shall be laid on the Southerly side of and not exceed 8 feet distance from the center line of the track of the Norwalk Horse Railway Com any to Bel- den avenue,and upon the'grade 0 Wall street. as it now is. thence crossmg the track of said Horse Railway to the center of the traveled way of Belden'avenue, and following said cen- ter line ms nu Hill road. . And we do fix the grade 0 sai track in sand Belden avenue to be of tho same height as a straight line drawn at right angles from the established curb 111168 on either side of said Belden ave- nue to the other said curb line with a fall from the said center line each way of one inch in . the foot. The Court then adjourned. Stole a Satchel. Yesterday afternoon a New Haven liquor drummer named A. Benedict was in J ohu Malone‘s saloon displaying his samples. He had two small satchels with him, one of which he laid on the floor. When he started to leave the saloon he found one of the satchels ’ missing. Suspicion pointed to a col- ored man named George Henr as the finlty party. The drummer eft for ew Haven. Search was made for the suspected party. and Ofiicer Gehebe finally found him asleep in a stall at Gregory’s livery stable with the miss- ing satchel 1n his possession. The drummer was not here to prosecute this morning and only a charge of drunkenness was preferred against the fellow. Justice Coohdge fined him 82 and costs in default of which he was taken to jail. Attacked by a Mad Boar. . Stephen Lewis, aged 35, of Stratford, narrowlyescaped With his life from the attack of a large boar yesterday after- noon. Mr. Lewis undertook to drive the boar from one lot to another. The animal was obdurate and Mr. Lewis ap- plied acclub: _ The infuriated ammal dashed at him, chasing him several times about the lot. He finally overtook him" and sunk his huge teeth mto the calves of both the man’s . legs. .Mr. Lewis managed to beat himofl' With a club 'and immedi- ately started for the Bridgeport emer- gency hospital. .
