FacnIty Resources of Fremont.

The health of residents in Fremont
and environs is universally known to be
good, and that fact is somewhat borne
out by the exceedingly low average of
deaths each year, unless some considera-
ble credit may be ascribed to the fact Of
our city commanding such an exception

yesterday and this morning. They did not, how
ever, seem consistent with the terms of the Ger
man Circular referred to yesterday, which repre-
scented that Germany would in any case confer
with the new Spanish Government on the mea-
sures to be taken. It was surprising even that
the progress of the negotiations between the two
Governments could have been judged of, for the
official communication on the subject was only
made to the Madrid Cabinet in the course of yes
terday. Oficious PourparIers might have occur
red previously; but the German Government
could hardly have decided on so serious a step as
m armed landing without having received an off,
cial reply. The Madrid Government, moreover,
had seemed quite disposed to entertain the Ger
man complaints. 1t could not indeed be depended
on to satisfy them if, as is believed, their object
is to obtain a pecuniary indemnity for the Gustav,
to concede the principle of indemnifying those
who have sustained loss through the Carlists would
involve the Alfonsist Government in a series OF
engagements, the extent of which could not be
foreseen and for the execution of which the Span
ish Treasury would offer but a feeble guarantee.
The terms of the German circular seem too con-
formable with the farsighted policy of the German
Government to admit such a contradiction between
the prudence of the circular and the precipltancy
Of a landing. 1t was no surprise therefore to learn
this afternoon that the landing at Zarauz and the
bombardment of Guetaria were both contradicted,
and this denial was received with general
satisfaction. [ should add, moreover, that it is
still believed that the recognition of the now Gov
ornment by Germany will be dependent on the
settlement of pending difficulties.

The Winsted News spoke of the Enqui Ter. recently, as the Republican "organ'I of Litchfeld county. This is incorrect The Enquirer is first and chiefly a local paper. It's editor is Q Republican, who disapPFoves in some respects of the late. Reconstruction record of the party, and who hss stated his grounds of disappro- val frankly and freely for several years past Nevertheless he has voted and will probably continue to vote with that party, His personal views on politics as we'll as on other subjects of interest have been and will continue to be given in the En. quirer, but that paper is not in any strict sense of the word political paper. Still less IS it the "organ" of any political par. ty. We must not be understood, however. as sneering at what are called "oreans" of partisan political opinion Such journals serve useful purpose as representatives ofparties. whose creeds they champion and for whose interpretations of those creeds their parties are held to a certain exten, responsible. We wish it to be fully un derstOOd by our Democratic contempo raries that the Republican party is nc more responsible for the views of the En quirer than is the Enquirer responsible for the views of the Republican party. Il there ever was any such partnership il was dissolved good while ago.

EDWIN McNElLL,

On Monday morning, Edwin McNeill.
 Esq, of this village, died at West Point where he went, last week, on visit to his 3son. Mir. McNeill was born at the old Me. lNeill place on the road to the Naugatuck Station on the 10th of Sept, 1922. He graduated from Capt. Partridge's Military
 Academy, and being fiue mathematician was teacher in that school for e time after his graduation. He next applied 3to the Chief Engineer on the Erie
 Railroad. for employment. He had nothing better for him at first than carrying the chain, a position Mir. Nc.

 the New Jersey Central. From that en aterprise he went to the building of ths aLackawanna & Bloomsburg railroad, ,sinc, 1absorbed by the Delaware, Lackawanna S

 On giving up active work as an engin

The use of carpetings may be traced to a very remote period, although as late as the time of Queen Mary, rushes and otll- CT coarse materials were used on the floors of her apartments. For many years Eu- rope received all her carpets from the East. and in many places whole families might be found in the occupation of car pet weaving. We are now producing in this country carpets of the same excel lence as those of foreign make. The Read Carpet Co, of Bridgeport, are said to make the best Ingrain Carpets that are sold in this Country. Messrs. HALL & READ are the agents of these goods, and also keep the largest assortment of Velvet and Brussels carpets in the state. Hail < Read also enjoy a deserved reputation for selling all classes of Dry Goods at the lowest market rates. They retail all do- nestle goods at the wholesale price lists and it is said that all kinds of housekeep- ing goods can be purchased there as low as in New York. We would advise our readers when in Bridgeport to visit Hall < Read. 9 4w

Imitation.

The last week has been notable for the meeting of political conventions in the two largest states in the Union, and for the important action of those conventions in committing the Democracy to Infation on the one hand and confirming Republi- cAnism in its opposition to this financial heresy on the other. The Republicans of New York passed the following resolution which is certainly as explicit as could be desired:
 Further imitation of the currency, under any pretense whatever, would be a public calamity. The interests of honest indus try and the common welfare demand the speediest possible return to specie pay menta.
 Tho Democracy of Pennsylvania. on the other hand, committed the party in that state to the Ohio doctrine of imitation pure and simple in the following resolu- ton:
 The contraction of the money cur rency and circulating medium heretofore made by the Republican party, and the further contraction proposed by it with d view to forced resumption of specie pay ments, has already brought disaster to the business of the country and threatens general bankruptcy. We demand that this policy be abandoned, and that the volume Of money be made and kept equal to the wants of trade. leaving the restora- ton of legal tenders to par in gold to bel brought about by promoting the indus tries of the people and not by destroying them.
 It is but fair to admit that the Republi- cans of Pennsylvania have been weak enough to truckle to the cry for InAation which goes up from every part of the| great State of Coal and Iron. Still the greater boldness of the Pennsylvania Democracy makes them the special charl- pions of this financial theory, and tends more and more to the committal of the party to it's support in the campaign of next year. Should Pennsylvania and. Ohio both go Democratic, this fall, itI would seem to give the infationists surel command of the Democratic nomination. for the Presidency. Should they be defeat ed in Ohio on that issue and successful in: Pennsylvania, it would leave the question: open for a sharp fight in their Presiden- tial Convention. We consequently lookI with much interest for the election re-. turns from Ohio in October and Pennsyl- vania in November.
 The Republicans of New York haveI adopted an excellent platform and nomi- mated an excellent ticket, still we do not imagine that they have much chance of success. The reform record of Gov. Till den and the prestige of recent Democratic victories in the Empire state will, we i'm agine, give that party an easy victory. An Imitation success in Ohio, next month might, however, weaken the Democracyl m state so thoroughly committed to| hard money as New York.
