REPUBLICANS AND PROHIBITION.

The results of the elections in Ohio
and Iowa are setting the Republican
managers in other states to bordering the
obvious problem-the solution of which
frem that point Of view, is not at all OH
vious-what are they going to do about
1t? To those who regard the principles
of party as device to catch votes. and
to be changed as often as it is necessary
for that purpose, the question is certainly
puzzling not to say bewildering, They
perceive that in Ohio, where the party
adopted a moderate course, the Prohibi.
tionists threw the election into the hands
OF the Democrats, In Iowa, where the
party took extreme ground, the election
was in its favor. They ask themselves
anXiously whether the time is not ap-
preaching when the Republican party,
IN many states, at least, must become an
avOwed Prohibitionist party, but they
recognize the danger, in such case of
losing as much in one direction as they
may gain in another
1t is plain that the problem will con-
tinue to receive different treatment in the
several states, as the preponderance of
opinion may incline, but if the Prohibi
tionists shall undertake to make nation
al question, it is very clear that the Re
publican party cannot take sides with
them without practically disbanding.
Whether those who from conviction. or
because prohibition seemed the winning
cause, would sustain it, form a majority
Of the party or not is impossible to say.
But it is certain that there is large mi
nority who would neither aid in bringing
the party TO the support of prohibition
nor would vote with that party if that
principle should be adopted IF the
party were divided, the first and most re-
gretable consequence would be that the
less responsible, sober and respectable
element Of the Democratic party would
be largely reinforced, either directly or
indirectly. It would be rash to say that
no national election could be carried by
a Prohibition party, though that even
now seems wildly improbable But it is
quite certain that no such party could
long retain power, if it should by chance
obtain it, and that in all contests with
such party the worst tendency of the
Democracy would be STRENGTHENED. We
can imagine nothing in American politics
likely to be more demCralizing then a
serious general contest over the issue of
prohibition. Not only would such a con-
test force large numbers of intelligent
men to side with those with whom on
most other issues they would have nothing
IN common, but it would open up a field
FOR hypocrites and demagogues among

NEBRASKA POLITICS.

A late dispatch from Lincoln, Nebras-
ka, thus discourSes on the political stu
alton in that state:
The state election soon to occur does
not seem to excite any special interest.
There seerns in fact to have been de-
cided change in the Republicans who
last year united their interests with the
so called antimonopolists There is not
a paper which was formerly Republicat
that turned to the antimonopolsts, than
has not now returned to the straight Re
publican. All the county candidates
have now the support of their home pa
pers, and Republicans everywhere seem
satisfied that no great effort will be re-
quired to elect the regular ticket, even in
counties that have usually been consider
ed doubtful. This Is an important year
for county elections. as nearly ali offices
are to be filled. The state ticket attracts
little attention, because the Office are all
minor ones The Republican candidate
for the Supreme Bench is the Hon. NJ B.
Reese, of Wahoo, SaunderssCounty. He
is a gentleman in the prime of life, an ex
perienced lawyer, and a man of acknOwl
edged ability Said a well-formed poll
tician to your correspondent to-day:
ole will be elected by a large majority
no doubt about it. The Republican par
! ty in Nebraska is all right Prosperity
always favors the Republican party, and
every farmer in the State has gathered a
fine harvest and has little of which to
complain. Business of all kinds is fair,
and Nebraska may be counted on for a
nice Republican majority"

WILD ANIMALS LET LOOSE.
One of Barnum's sienagerie Cars Up
set


BRIDGEPORT Conn, October 26.-As
Barnum's menagerie train arrived here
to-day, one of the cars ran off the track
in turning a curve. As it fell it bursted,
and out rolled elephants heads, tails and
trunk all mixed up. In their struggle
they knocked over several of the animals
dens. Then a terrible scene was enacted
Monkeys climbed on the roof, chatteripg
and cutting all sorts of pranks. Two
bears started for town and a panther
jumped on the roof of a carriage shed.
George Arstingstall whipped out his re-
volver, fired, and wounded the beast,
which then sprang over an adjoining
shed and took to the open country Mar
tin Edwards, who was seated on the back
of camel started in pursuit, followed by
Johnson's blOodhounds and a dozen men
with guns. They tracked the panther
through q cemetery, across Moody stream
and to Holland Heights. There they
found the panther fastened on the neck
of a horse which the infatuated beast had
just killed. The hounds sprang upon
the panther. Edwards, from the camel's
back, opened fire, but not till the panther
had killed four of the hounds did he
succeed in killing him. The scene was
exciting. People fed in all directions,
and not until Edwards returned with the
dead beast loaded upon the camel did
many show themselves. While the pan.
ther hunt was going on Prof. Arsting
stalls attention was called to two of the
larger elephants which had been hurt by
the capsized car. Juno had her foot
badly crushed, but Albert, whose tusks
had recently been sawed off, was terribly
lacerated about the trunk. It NAV be-
come necessary to amputate this impor-
tant member to save his life.

the Prohibitionists themselves that would
be worked to the permanent injury of the
state.
The policy which would be the most
logical, the safest, and the most prudent
for the Republican party is precisely that
which was pursued in Ohio, and this is
not the less true because the policy led
to defeat there, and its opposite brought
success in Iowa. In Ohio the Republic
ans committed themselves fairly and
firmly to a law taxing the liquor trade
and providing against its serious abuse.
The merit of such a course is that 1t is
practical and sane, and can be consistent
ly adhered to. It fully represents to the
undoubted conviction and moral senti-
mcnt of the great body of the party,
while it does not commit the party to any
impracticable and revolutionary measure,
1t pledges the party to work that can
fairly be accomplished by political agen-
cies, and does not pledge it to any object
which Is in practice, unattainable. 1t
will stand the test of experience and of
time and invites no disastrous reaction.
If it be that such policy will not salts
fly body of sincere Republicans who
will leave the party if prohibition be not
made a cardinal object, the answers that
that is a difficulty which can only be met
in one way, by working it out in the arena
of political discussion and action. If the
Prohibitionsts offer the Republican party
the alternatives of adopting their ideas or
submitting to defeat they must at the
same time decide for themselves what
wouldSbe the consequences of a possible
accession of the Democracy to power.
The Republicans can honorably aud
wisely &C as far as the stringent regula-
ton of the liquor trade; they cannot go
| further, and those who do so will have to
take the responsibility Of their action

tongue has been the slow growth of cen turies. Beginning with the early Bri- tons, he traced the changes that have been wrought into the language by the conquest of the Romans 55 years before Christ, by the invasion of the Saxons in the fifth century and of the Normans in the 11th century. Although our Ian guage has Teutonic or Anglo Saxon origin 1t was explained how the ele- ments of other languages have entered into it's composition and helped to en- rich it. If we can imagine what would be the result if Dutc hman an Italian and Frenchman should get together and all talk at once it would give us an idea of the vicissitudes our mother ton que has gone through before becoming modern English. To illustrate Anglo Saxon the lecturer gave quotation from Bede, some of the words of which have been so long out of use that their mean is not now known. He read 8 passa ge from Scott's Ivanhoe to show the differA ence between the Saxon and Norman; also two interesting selections from Chau- cer and Spencer to illustrate the sty le of early English. The lecturer closed with giving the original meaning of some words now in common use, the audience being much amused with the meanings given to the names Democrat and Re- publican,

Burglary i'm East Canaan.

Deputy Sherif Van Deusen arrested John Connor and two Freeman boys (colored), last Tuesday night, in what is known as Loon Meadow in the Northern part of Norfolk, on the charge of bur- glary from the store of A. B. Garfield, Esq, in East Canaan. The store was entered the preceding night and about $330 worth of goods taken. These par ties were brought before Justice Ben nett, Wednesday, when the darkies pleaded guilty and were bound over; Connor pleading not guilty was held for trial. The case was prosecuted by Law yer Roraback and Col Fenn of Winsted appeared for the defense. The case was adjourned to Friday, when after ex- amining several witnesses it was again put over to next Friday. It will prob ably go hard with Connor, as two sheep have since been found in his yard, which were stolen from Origen Gibson of New Marlboro, through Connor ex- plains that by saying that he paid the Freeman boys $4 for them. It is all Gin the family" whoever stole them, and this affair will break up one of the worst gangs at large in this vicinity. Among the articles taken, one half of which were found in Connor' hay mow, were several dozen pairs of socks, some towels and like things, which was ''the nigger of it, {" as it has been expressed. The thieves were traced to Connor's by the peculiar track of one of the horses hind shoes and the wheel tracks of the wagon used. A third Freeman boy was arrested for stealing sled to carry off some of the stolen goods and 8 fourth boy resisted the officers and was held to answer for it.
 The latest phase of the trial is that Garfield has attached Connor's property for $990, it being statute law that in case person is found guilty of burgla- ry his property If he has any) may be attached for three times the value of the goods taken. Officer Van Deusen served the papers, Monday.

TONGUE AND MUSTARD.

Rev Harry I. Bodley lectured in I'm provement hall, last Tuesday evening, on the subject 'Tongue and Mustard. Quite good audience was in attendance, from curiosity to hear the lecture as well as to see MT Bodley again, who is so we'll known and esteemed in this place. They were not treated to the real smoked tongue and mustard, but to an intellectual feast on the history of
 our mother tongue-the English lan- guage, ,--the mustard part being an oc' casional display of the speakers wit. The lecturer explained how the Euglist
