THERE ARE SOME HOGS HERE.

Attorney Z. E. ". Cochran returned last
evening from a professional trip 70 the
south and west part OF the county, and
saws that ae met a large number of far
mers bringing hogs and grain to the WITCH
tia market. Mr.. Cochran says he did LOT
count all the teams he met IS he did not
think of the scheme in time
He did count, however, tNgenty-one loads
of hogs aud eleven loads of grain and
thinks he passed seven or eight teams be-
fore he began TO enumerauo them. From
this Mr. Cochran thinks there are some
hogs in the country after all.

CLOSE CALL.

Night before last Mr. a. McNulty ar
rived in the city from Mead Center and
registering at the Manhattan was assigned
a room. He retired about IL o'clock, ask
ing that he be called at S o'clock if be
should not sooner come down into the
Office. He wished TO see Father Casey. he
said, in the morning and for this reason
wanted to arise as early as possible.
jim, the porter, knocked at the door
about o'clock yesterday morning and
receiving no reply he returned to the
office He stated that ne feared the man
was suffering from asphyxia as he
could smell the gas through
the sides of the door The clerk Frank
Gillespie and several other gentlemen at
the time in the Office hurried up to the
room and by breaking the catch to the
transom and putting through the opening
a boy who unlocked the door gained an en-
trance 10 the room.
They found Mr. McNulty lying upon the
bed unconscious and immediately COM
menced the appl cation of all the means of
restoration in their power The uufortun-
ate man was taken into another room,
DR.. McClees was sent for and
soon signs of life was dis
cerned. They continued TO labor with him
and so successful were their efforts that
he was soon able to move about and in the
afternoon left the hotel to attend to the
business that brought him to the city.
Mr.. McNulty, it seemed, had not blown
out the gas but had simply turned it Off
incompletely. There was small amount
of gas escaping, yet the windows and tran
som were closed and thus there was but
little fresh air in the room. II Mr.. Nc
Nulty had not been discovered for fifteen
minutes after he was, the physician
thinks thas it would have been impossible
10 have saved his life.

SCHOOL ELECTION.

Our citizens take very little interest in
school elections, it seems, Less than
900 of the 1900 voters having cast
their votes for school officers last Mon
day. Perhaps the people are well salts
fled with the general management Of
the schools, but the fact that Mr.. Walter
Leigh expressed himself as in favor Of
the free distribution Of text books among
poor school children, and the further
possibility that he had some energetic
workers at the polls, resulted in his
election and the defeat of Morris +.
Tyler. Education, which includes the
means used in imparting knowledge
should be free to all, and no child should
be made to feel that he or she is a pau
per. Poor children are poor because
rich children's parents get the result Of
the labor Of poor children's parents. Let
there be Socialist ticket in the field
next year with all that the Socialist
platform recommends in its educational
plank as an issue.

in any one, but to select such men for
their representatives as they can through
their organizations control. They have
gotten past hoping to gain by fusion,
whether it be in the Legislature or at
the town meeting, Finally, the time
has come for nominating and voting
upon platform that recognizes the
class antagonism between capitalists and
wageworkers between the producers
and the spectators. A platform that
does not recognize this fundamental
principle is not a platform worthy of
support. Now, will Horace or any one
else show us a platform which 80 COM
pletely covers the ground as the Socialist
platform? by the way, where does the
Solemn protest" come in when you let
your representatives vote for the candi-

GOOD WORDS FOR HIRAM.
To the UOrkmen's Adr0cate

10 the HOrkmenS 1drOcdte
noticed some time since and also last
week an article in the ADVOCATE COM
menting quite severely on Hiram Camp.
Now | know you well enough, think,
to believe that you would not unjustly
criticise any man, and that you want
the truth, and know Mr. Camp we'll
enough, having been intimately ac-
quainted with him for some years, to
know that you are mistaken in your
Judgment of him. He is a good man,
and a square man if | know anything
about men. He started in life a poor
boy. He has worked hard and done the
very best he knew how by his fellow
men, and accumulated some property.
He is not very rich man as is common
y supposed. If he had not given away
SO much (and nearly all that he has given
he has endeayOred to e we without motto
rlety, as ! know he would be d very rich
man, worth at the very least "A million
dollars. His charities are such that he
actually deprives himself of some COM
forts, and what might be reasonably
called necessities. | know that he has
given away not only every dollar of his
income, but more than once he has had
to sell some Of his property to keep his
promises. There is not a particle of by
pocrisy or cant about the man. You
know me well enough to know that |
mean what say, and not only that, but
that | have the means of knowing the
truth of what say.
Now as to the cutting down the men,
and Mr.. Camps relations to the men in
the clock, shop | anu aware that during
recent years he has been criticized some
what. But Mr.. Camp is simply the
president of company. He owns only
very little stock in the company He
works for the company just as any
other man does, and he works with his
hands every day, contriving new sorts
of clocks and styles so that there may be
more sales. The fact that his name is
signed to an order of the company as
President, makes it seem as if he ran
everything in the clock shop But he
does not run everything by a long shot
A little thought about this matter, and a
little investigation will show you who
really does run things in the New
Haven Clock Co, If you will investigate
you will find the truth of what say.

The delegates were instructed to en-
deavor to have the Federation pass reso-
lutions and have them put before the
Legislature making Labor Day a legal
holiday. Also to see t it that appeals
from organizations be more promptly
attended to.
Messrs. Flood, Schiebel and Ruther
elected as local reception committee to
the Federation.
The following amendment to the con
stitution was proposed, and is to take
its usual course:
ANY complaint of members of organ
nations represented in the Trades Coun-
Gil who purchase scab goods shall be
referred to such union. Should the
union neglect to take action on such
members, they shall be expelled from
the Council.

FAVoRS "SCHWANzPOLlTlk,"

To the UorhmeH'S ldrOcute
wish to say few words to our Con-
necticut friends in reference to the pend
ing political campaign.
We have a good platform; it is SO
plain there can be no mistake as to its
meaning; we have good State ticket;
our candidates stand squarey upon that
platform. We will certainly poll as
large a vote for the principles repre-
sented as we possibly can without de-
seeming to dishonorable means; not
that we expect to elect our ticket, but
every vote for the ticket is solemn pro-
test against the dishonest motives and
corrupt practices of the old political
parties; but while we are doing our best
for the State ticket, remember that is
not the only or most important consid-
Grafton. We certainly can prevent an
election by the people of either of the
tickets of the old parties. thus throwing
the election into the Legislature. Let
the workmen in each town organize and
nominate their own representatives, and
then strive to elect them wherever there
is ghost of chance to elect. See that
every effort is put forth. We can at
least, if we will it so, hold the balance of
power in the legislature, and when it
comes to the election of State officers,
as we must have one of those of the old
parties whether we wish il or not, and
which one is immaterial to us, let our
vote go to that party which will grant
us most of our demands.
The Ohibitionsts will certainly elect
some representatives, and if we cannot
! get the balance of power ourselves, we
certainly can hold it i'll conjunction
with the ProhibitionistS, who like the
old parties as little as we, and while we
| do not sympathMe with them III their
particular views, we all must admire
them for their honesty of their purpose
and their firm adherence to their prin-
ciples and the purity characterlzlng the
| conduct Of their movement We can
with propriety extend the right hand Of
fellowship To all those engaged in any
movement against the two old parties.
Friends, in making your nominations
for members of the Legislature, be care
| full TO select only those who are trust.
NpI ny VINO III anu tttil HNttllNl bOllSlSl-
entity upon your platform.
Furthermore, make your local organi-
zation permanent not only for future
elections, but for any emergency which
may arise. You will soon realize the
Importance of this suggestion.
