THE MILFORD TURNOUT,

 A Splendid Parade-Generous Re-
 cept1on.
 Old Milford witnessed one of the finest parades that ever occurred in the town in the grand Republican demonstration of last night there. Every preparation had been made for the event, and the weather smiled on the enterprise. The moons absence rendered the torchlight display and the illumination of the residences all the more vivid. The Blaine and Logan company of Milford, Captain Carola, welcomed the out-of-town guests and the whole town seemed to have turned out for the occasion. The order of procession and route of march were as follows:
 The line formed, right resting at the Town Hall, moved through Cherry street to Governors avenue, up North street to the liberty pole, countermarched crossed BristoIs bridge, down River street to south side Broad street, to Center, through Center to Green street, through Green to Lafayette street, to Broad, up Broad to Bela Ciark's corner, down Knowledge Hill to west side Broad, to River street, up Railroad avenue to High street, to Main street, down Main to East River street, to New Haven avenue, to Gulf street, to Cherry street, to Town Hall.

steady at unchanged prices. Corn and oats qui-
ct but steady. Potatoes are in fair demand.

HOP GROWERS JUBILANT.

despatch from the western part of
this state says the prices of hops are go
ing up, and the vines are looking-not so
we'll on the whole as last year, but well
enough to assure profitable season if
the fruiting corresponds with present
promises. In Oneida county the observ-
er will find many yards in excellent con-
dition. There are few poor hills; the
vine is hearty, of good color, and gives
promise Of a big yield. The Madison
acreage is about the same as in 1888. Re
ports from Otsego county have been less
favorable than from other parts of the
hop district ever since 'sgrubbing' began,
| and, though more acres are given to hops
than in 1888, fewer bales will be harvest
ed than then. Prices, however, encour-
/ age every grower. Sales of choice lots
| of 1888 hops were made last week at 40
cents, and the general market is strong.
| Fifty cents is confidently talked of, and
| farmers are looking for repetition of
| the great boom of 1882, when comforta-
/ BILE fortunes were made in a few weeks.
| The cause of the present rise in prices is
ascribed to the failure of the English
crop, concerning which the leading hop
men of this vicinity keep well informed
by cable. These reports say the English
crop is almost a failure, and the growing
eagerness of dealers to pick up hops OF
last year and Of 1882 at increasing prices
confirms the reports. Plattsbury SENT

A Triumph for Judge Royce.

When in May the Richford Gazette
published specifications of certain afro
cious offenses alleged to have been
committed by Judge Royce, the matter
of the whispered scandals with which
his name had been connected assumed
such shape as to render it, in the view
of THE WATCHMAN, incumbent on the
judge to make such answer as an inno-
cent man jealous of his personal and
official honor would make, and we ex-
pressed the hope that a speedy and
explicit denial would be forthcoming
The charges the Gazette published We're
first used two years ago, in an insidious
way, in the crusade against the Judge
to defeat his reelection. They APP
peared in the Gazette, formulated in
cold type, and were spread over the
state on the eve of a political canvass
with the avowed purpose of bringing
Judge Royce's alleged misconduct be-
fore the electors who would have his
official fate in their keeping. What
ever private citizen might have done
under the circumstances, he could
hardly seek refuge in silence. The
charges in the Gazette were cold, for
NAL and relentless challenge. H. could
not honorably shelter himself behind
the irresponsible character of the chal-
Ienger. 1t was plain that the Gazette
was the mouthpiece of an organized
movement to overthrow him. BY dint
OF persistent repetition many candid
men had begun to think the charges
might be true. The judge was placed
in an anomalous position for judicial
officer and it was incumbent on him for
the honor of the bar, for the honor of
