Mr.. EDIroR-'The question is frequently
asked, What effect will the license law of
the last Legislature have upon the election
soon to take place? So far as this town is
concerned, think it can be said with truth
that the political aspect can be but little if
any changed, in consequence of the passage
ofthat law. My reasons for this conclusion
are, that the law was not passed by party
vote, and besides, there are in the demo-
cratic party ESQ called,) not a few real
friends of the law, who are laboring to sus-
tain it, and who scorn the base attempts of
unprincipled politicians to make it party
question There was considerable feeling
on the subject Immediately after the Com
missioners held their first meeting, and per-
haps it is not saying too much to add, that
an effort was made by some to create peliti-
cal capital out of it; but if such was the
design of any, it has signally failed. The
Wings are awake, and will do their duty like
men. Y.

EMV
THE GREATEST TRIUMPH OF THE CEN
TURY!!
No CHOICE OF GOVERNOR By The PEOPLE
The TEXAS PLoTTERs IN THE DUST
The Wings and Independents Of New
HampShire have gained a splendid vlc'OIy
over The trained cohorts of LOcO-FocOism'-
The chain of the OppreSSOr is broken IN inc
Granite State, and she will soon take her
nlace among her Wing Sisters! if she is not
already entitled to the position. We copy
the following glorious news from the Boston
Alias. of Yesterday morning. Let the Wings
of Connecticut be inspired to new efforts
and push ON THE WHTG COLUMN!
We Law the returns below before our rea-
dcrs. with a satisfaction that can hardly
| vent itself in words. New-HampShire is re
deemed, regenerated, disenthrawled! Will
liams is beaten by a majority nearly II not
quite as large as that by which Woodbury.
| was defeated last November! In one OF the
largest votes ever thrown in the State, if not
the very largest, pro-Slavery Locofocoism is
thrown into a minority of two thousand
Woes! In l72 towns, comprising five
sixthS of the population of the State, the
maturity against w lIIoLAo ~ N~SNS'
The towns that remain to he heard from
may possibly reduce this TO about two thou
sand. The House of Representatives is
completely revolutionized. The Locos can
hardly have more than two of the twelve
Senators. and all the vacancies will be filled
up with Wings or Independents. Nobly
have the Wings and their allies fought this
great battle in behalf of freedom and the
rights of man-and their success has been
as glorious as it has been unexpected. In the
towns received, there has been an increase of
IL 1903 votes, as compared with Nos ember.
The present Legislature will have to elect a
United States Senator for an unexpired term
Of one year, and full term of six years.
OF the 22S Representatives elected, ia
are Whigs-26 Independents-and eS 'ocos.
The Wings and Indepen ents together have
| lao members In the last House the whole
number was two hundred and fifty. The
present House will not be muchllarger and
there will therefore, be majority against
the Iocos ofat least thirty. Well done, New
Hampshire

This town has been proving better and
better since 1910 Democracy like the po-
.atoe crop, has been so cut off during the
last year, that serious apprehensions are en-
tertained lest the seed should run out. The
reason of this destruction is supposed to be
owing to the 'scant manuring' ofthe New

CHEERING WIG PROSPECTS.

The friends of Wing principles in this
State have great encouragement to effort
and perseverance in the good cause, in the
result of the town elections in New York
Stale. The Wings have chosen their off
GERS in Troy, Utica. Rochester, Buffalo, and
Foughkcepsie. Let the Wings Of this State
be true TO themSeives-lo the best interests
Of the counry-to protective tariff, and to
the var GUS industrial pursuits depending
upon ito the laborer who is directly bcne-
fitted lhereby-to Wholesome laws and coed
government-and all will yet be we'll The
result of The election in this State cont ibu-
ted largely to the defeat of .Nckay's bill, at
former session, and an unmistakcable ex-
preston of MISREPRESENTATION all quarters,
ofN alker's English tariff bill, may also he
successful. Try it, Wings Of Connecticut.
You have the power, and you owe il to your
selves and to the country at large to make
the experiment Who will be remiss when
duty thus calls TO action?

The good Wing cause progresses well in
Cornwall, in spite of the unprincipled at
empts of the Times and Register to make
capital out of the Registry Law. We are
sure of doing better here than we did last
year by at least twenty votes. Mr.. Toucey
and his associates are not popular here
They won't so down with the people. We
are sorry-very sorry-wonder why-wish
them well, but can't vote for them. Per-
haps Mr.. Toucey will make up his mind to
stay in his Office another year-perhaps two
years more.

and handled with great severity several distin-

reply is now before US, and we have read enough
of it to be convinced that he writes in good

Bank Taxes.

We published las week a tabular state.
ment,' Of the Auditor Of State, showing the
condition Of the thirty-one banks in this
State and the amount Of tax paid by them
for the past six months, together with the
amount paid per annum upon each dollar
ofbank stock. The wings, from Alfred
Kelley, Auditor Woods and William Bebb
down, have endeayered to convince the
people that these banks have paid, and will
pay more tax upon their capital when
charged upon their profits only, than the
people have to pay on the same amount
otherwise invested, and it was for this pur-
pose, we suppose, that the would,be Cover
nor asked that we should publish this table.
We should deem it sufficient reply, that,
were such the case, the bankers would not
have refused to accept the offer Of being
taxed as other persons are. But by refer
ence to this table it will be seen that the
amount paid per annum upon each. dollar
flank stock is only four and aineig.four
hundredtts 'nills, while heretofore, the peo-
pie Of this county-and we presume Of al.
most every other county in the State--haye
paid from fourteen to fifteen mills upon the
dollar of their property, and we presume
the levy for the present year will not iall
far short Of that amount, while, for the
year to come, bank stock may not pay half
IS much, and, indeed, may not pay anything.
We here see by the statement of the banks
themselves that they are paying less than
toe mills upon the dollar Of their stock. and |
he farmers and others of the State are pay.
ng about fifteen, and this is what the wings
;all equality and right.
But this table shows further, that these
banks have in "notes and bill discounted. y,
he sum Of $s, ,Osl,s94, 49, which amount
drawing interest, and in the hands Of an
Individual would be taxed on half the a.
mount, and which at IA mills on the dollar,
would amount to $56,22s,26, but the banks
icing taxed upon their profits only, have
'aid for the last six months but $l2, ,7g9, SO,
md should they pay the same amount for
he half year to come, will make their an.
ual tax but $25,599,ls, less by more than
ALI than the same amount in the hands of
n unincorporated individual would have to-
ay, and this amount they would have to
ay whether the investment proved profita-
le or not. Still we are asked to believe1 I
lot these bankers receive no benefit from !
eing taxed differently from others. I
