New York in Three Elections.
As New York is admitted on all hands
to' be the pivotal state in this campaign,
‘a reference to its votes in past Presi-
dential years is of presentinterest.
The total vote of the State in 1880 was
1,104,045; Gen. Garfield receiving 555,-
444; Gen. Hancock, 534,511, and Gen.
Weaver, 12,” 73 ;_ scattering, 1.617. In
the city Hancock’s vote was 123,015 and
Gar field’s 81,73 .
In 1884 Mr. Cleveland received 563,-
048 votes, Mr. Blaine, 562,001 ; Mr. St.;
John, 24,999, and Gen. Butler, 17,002
total vote, 1,167,050. The city of New
‘ York gave Mr. Cleveland 133,157 votes,
and Mr. Blaine 90,093.
The total vote of the State in 1888 was
1,317,381. of which Gen. Harrison re-
ceived 648,759 and Mr. Cleveland 635,-
757, the remainder being divided be-
tween the Prohibition. Union Labor,
and United Labor candidates. The
vote of the city that year was: Cleve-
land, 162,626; Harrison, 105,452.
'Educational'Politics.
This is a campaign that must stand
out in sharp contrast with modern Pres-
idential contests in the manliness of ex-
pression regardless of Old political as-
sociations, says the Democratic Phila-
delphia Times. There will be a thous-
and of independent voters this year for
every hundred in past national thg-
gles. There are Democrats who will
vote for Harrison; there are Republi-
cans who will vote for Cleveland; there
are many who will not vote at all, and
the side on which the bulk of the inde-
pendent vote shall fall, will be the vic-
tor in November. I
These changes are unmistakable signs
of a healthy political condition, and
are consistent, manly and in every way
commendable, and we welcome them
regardless of the particular party they
help or hinder.
This is a campaign of education ; of
manly utterance: of studious inquiry,
and the peculiar feature. of it is that
the wage~enrner is thinking quite as
much as the capitalist.

Winter in the ‘Wild West.
The snow storm reported from Colo-
rado and along the Union Pacific asfar
west as Ogden, appears to have been
not only of midwinter severity, but at
certain points unprecedented as a. block-
ade of travel and telegraphic communi-
cation. VVith drifts of eighteen feet in
depth in some Of the railway cuts and
snow in other places five feet deep on a.
level. the effect upon traffic is necessa-
rily serious. . _ .
More serious still, in all probability,
will be the loss of cattle and horses and
other stock on the ranges of Colorado
and great plains of Wyoming, exposed
as thousands of animals have been to
the fury of a two days’ tempest, over-
taking them with phenomenal sudden-
ness and burying all traces of vegeta-
tion out of sight. Som.‘ loss of human
life is also reported, and more will
doubtless be heard from.
It is hardly to be believed that this
disastrous storm means the immediate
setting in of winter, but for the time
being It brings with it more than the
usual terrors of winter, because of its
unseasonable and uneyected violence.
The I-Iom‘estead Strike Ended.
The Homestead strike is ended.
There will yet, be sporadic struggles
against submissiOn, but the battle is
ended and the strikers have lest.
The Homestead Local News, the or-
gan of the strikers, has simply told the
truth by saying that the struggle is
hopeless; that the Carnegie mills will
be operated with or without them, and-
that ,it is now the-partof wisdom. for
" the. starving men to return to work on
‘ , any tel-Insthey~ can Obtain. -
" This Homestead strike is a. me
costly'confiiet between labor and capi~
tal in the history of Pennsylvania, with
the single exception of the strikers’
. riots in Pittsburg in 1877. It has prac-
tically broken up the community of,
Homestead,'as all who were able to get
away have sought employment else-
where. It has caused a loss to work-
men in wages alone of hundreds of
thousands of dollars. Its record iscrim-
soned with lawlessness and murder, for
which scores of men are now imprison-
ed or under arrest for the gravest
crimes. It has cost the people of the
State $600,000, and now the workmen
who can get back to employment at all,
must accept such wages and conditions
as the employers choose to give.
The Homestead strike is ended. but
how long must its fearful lessons linger
in the memories of both employers and
employed.
Death of Mrs. Norman L. Austin.
Mrs. Elvinu Benedict, formerly of
New Canaan, and wife of Norman L.
Austin, died at 7 O’clock last evening,
at her home NO. 69 Wall street, in the
5151: year of her age. The fourth Of
last September she was taken with a
paralytic stroke, which left her In a
semi-conscious state, in which condi-
tion she remained lll.i1l taken with an-
other stroke which caused her death
shortly after as above. The deceased
was married to Mr. Austin about 30
years ago. Previous to her marriage
she was organist for five years at the
Episcopal Church inNew Canaan. On
coming to Norwalk she sang alto in St.
Paul’s church choir and then leading
soprano, and afterwards soprano in the
Baptist church choir. On moving to
Middletown she‘resigned. She leaves
a husband and three children, Alexan-
der L., John B. and Harold R. Austin.
Her father and two brothers, James W.
and Louis Benedict, and a sister Eliza-
beth, who has been constantly at her
bedside during her illness, survive her.
Mrs. Austin was a kind wife, an affec-
tionate mother and a sacrificmg neigh-
bor, always happy in doing good for
others. Her death will be deeply
mourned by all who knew her. The
funeral will be attended from her late
home on Wall street, at 2 O’clock 'Wed-
nesday afternoon, Rev. S. H. Watkins
Officiating. The interment will be in
the family plot at the Union cemetery.
The Veterans and Their Claims.
There are over 850,000 persons who
receive pensions from the United States
aggregating in amount at present
about $150,000,000 annually. The ma-
jority of this number is made up of sol-
diers of the late war, their widows and
orphans.
Every year this sum of $150,000, 000 is
paid out by the Government in quar-
terly installments, and it goes to all
parts of the land. Its expenditure for
the necessaries of life flushes the veins
and arteries of trade and commerce,
and benefits everybody. Not a dollar
of it is hoarded by the recipients.
A generation of bearded men and
grown women, who are fathers and
mothers, but who were born since the
war closed, and who know nothing per-
sonally of that mighty struggle, who
enjoy the results secured by it, and
cannot imagine what the conditions
were before the war, sometimes think
that “this pension business” is very
costly, and are disposed to question its
wisdom.
When they reflect, however. that
these men who are pensioners left he
hind them health and strength which
they freely gave up at- the call of the
country: that these widows and or-
phans gave their protectors and bread-
winners that the interests of all might
be cared for; that the pensions are real-
ly nothing more than a very small
recognition Of heroic nnselfishness.
then they feel that pensions are worthi-
ly bestowed and that it is right and
proper that they should be paid with
unstinting liberality. Every man who
enlisted in the Union Army made a
contract with the Government, it being
agreed that in certain contingency he
should be pensioned. That contract
will be carried out.

Judge Seymour is Dead.
Judge and 931-! 'Imgressman EDWARD
W. SEYMOUR, (lit-l at his home at Litch-
field at noon Sunday from acute brain
fever. Judge Seymour was born in
Litchfield on August 30, 1832. He grad-
uated from Yale in 1853 in the classwith
Wayne McVeagh, and was admitted to
the bar in Litchfield in 1856. He re-
mained there till 1875, when he went to
Bridgeport and entered into law part-
nership with his brother, Morris
W. Seymour, where he had continued
till the present time. He was married
in New York May 12, 1864, to Mary
Floyd Talmadge, of that city. He was
elected by the democrats to the State
Legislature in 1859, ’60, ’70 and ’71, and
to the Senate in 1876. He was sent to
the National Congress in 1884and ’88,
and defeated in ’86 by Mr. Miles. In
1889 he was appointed Judge of the Sn-
preme .Court by Governor Bulkeley’
which ofiice he has held ever since. He
came of a family which has been prom-.
inent in public affairs in Connecticut
for nearl y two hundred years. His fa-
ther, Origen S. Seymour, was Chief J us-
tics of the Supreme Court, and one of
his relatives was United States Senator-
from Connecticut in 1821-33. ,

so conspicuously adorned. In all

Why the Campaign is Quiet.
The compaign continues to be quiet,
remarks the independent Washington
Post. It refuses to get noisy or to
ones, torchlight processions, brass.
bands, joint discussions, etc. Far Off
in some hidden Georgia jungle, Tom
Watson mingles his caterwaul with the
whangdoodle’s mournful note. Gen.
Weaver gets into the parabola of an
occasional egg. Our Own Chauncey
coos and twitters to delighted multi-
tudes everywhere. Cabot Lodge con-
tinues to be utter and pellucid and
quite too precious for any earthly use.
The oniy David Hill has locked his era-
cle for the season. Recreant Gresham
interviews himself without adding to
his stock of wisdom. Peck, the' man of
many and mysterious figures, broods
over an uncommunicative horoscope.
Other and lesser personages fret or
grin, caress or kick themselves, accord-
ingly as they have wasted or improved
the shining hour. But, all the same,
the procession of the great American
people moves calmly and serenely on
Its way. '
We rather think the situation has a.
deep and encouraging significance. It.
means, perhaps, that the day has passed
in which the country can be lashed into
insensate fury by‘every passing blath-
erskite with a gift of gab. People can
no longer be frightened by telling
them that this or that aspirant will em-
ploy success and power to seize their
liberties. Nobody seems to apprehend
that Mr. Harrison has designs upon the
heritage of the American freeman.
Nobody can be persuaded to believe
that Mr. Cleveland contemplates the
downfall of our national palladium.
We take things easily. For once in a
way we feel that the nation will be a
winner, no matter how the electoral
college may incline. Harrison or Cleve-
land, Cleveland or Harrison, whomso-
ever we may install next' March, the
country’s destinies will be in good,
strong, Strenuous American hands.
It is, therefore, a clash of thought, a
contest of policy and conviction. rather
than a momentous struggle for self-
preservation in which we are engaged.
The roorback orator bays the moon
with only the reverberating hills to
hear, him. Our crowned and sceptered
jester-s shoot their jokes into the cen-
tral blue and lose them there. None
is frightened,- none believes the union
or the flag to be in any sort of danger.
Only the extra excitable, the hysteri-
cal, the ignorant and credulous imag-
ine that mortal consequences de-
pend upon the issue. The restof us
are cool, comfortable, philosophical,
and, save those who have offices at
fate.

Struck by Lightning.
During a thunder storm in Bridge-
port Sunday morning a belt of flight-
ning struck the barn of Emil Burger at
Hickory Farms. about four miles above
that city. The fluid cut its way through
the barh, splitting it in halves. Miss
Lena Burger, who was in the building,
happened to be in the way of the ball.
It struck her on the head and followed
down her right side, paralyzing one-
half of her body. She was picked up
in an unconscious condition and re-
moved to the house. Dr. Haskell was
called and gave all the medical treat-
ment in his power. He cannot tell
whether or not her injuries will result
fatally.
A horse in the barn was killed. Two
young men named Twist and Dietrich,
fromBridgeport, who . were riding bi—
cycles, took refuge in the barn, but
were not even scorched. A woman who
had also gone to the barn to escape the
fury of the storm, had her hair burned
