4 CONNECTICUT BENEFACTOR.

We have heretofore taken occasion 10 point
out that the deadlock i'll the ncighboring state
Of Connecticut might not be all unmiXcd evil
since it was not what betting men call - Il dead
sure thing that the conSummate work Of "A
Legislature and State Government operating
tremendously and turning out be-it-cnactcdsi
by the basketGul would be altogether wise and
beneiicent. A Legislature in active operation
is more or less inspiring spectacle. We lately
had one at Albany: a very active and very
harmonious body, and one of the most inter
estng and instructive obect-lossons that have
been administered to the people of the state
since the Hon. William W. Tweed retired from
politics. STILL we believe that if a vote were
to be taken on the question a large majority
of citizens would signify their Willingness to
take the chances with what laws we have for
two years at least rather than have that body
or one like it start up the lawmaking machinery
again. In Connecticut ii is now about three
years since a statute law of any sort has been
ground out. The reason, rs everybody knows,
Is because the machinery got out OF Joint sand
got in the bearings, the cogs got wcdgcd, and
nothing was produced but noise. All the other
machinery in the state went on the same the

stranger passing through would hardly suspect
that it was community that had not had "A
fresh law for three years, but was grubbing
along with such legislation as had been left
over from more accordant times.
The only real distress resulting from the sit
uatOn was not on account of the lack of fresh
legislation, but because OF the solicitudc of
Governor HILL of Ncw-Yorx, for the Constitu-
ton Of Connecticut, which was, in his udg-
ment put in great peril by the continuance in
Office Of a Governor who was obliged by law
to hold OycFuntil the action of the Legislature
had determined the choice of his successor.
Our Governor was so anxious on this point
that he undertook to settle the question him
self by the simple process of Offering safe
asylum for horse-thieves and other criminals
from Connecticut. This made it uncomfort-
able for the owners of horses and other portable
property near the State line, but it was our
Governors way of settling things out of hand
IL does not appear that his action materially
affected the merits of the question Things
went on much the same way over the border
and the Constitution continued To be in doubt

Haven correspondent of "Thc New-York Even

I'D the veto. The Governor signed the Dill

Capitol. Did it occur to 1.-THE Argus" to petit
ton him to veto it for fear wicked Repub-
lcans should charge that the money would
be used directly or indirectly for political
purposes"? Are we to understand that this
desperate defender of Flower thinks that 1t
would be we'll every Presidential year to omit
all appropriations, no matter how necessary
they NAV be, for the canals or other great
public works?
A Democratic apologist of another sort is
| "The Rochester Herald" This friend OF the
Governors declines TO commend the veto, re-
marking that the proposed expenditure was
of vastly more importance to the State than
many that the Governor readily approved"
Still THE Herald wishes to let Flower down
as easily as possible, and accordingly it couples
its dissent from the veto with the charge that
'cof late years the Republican party in this
State has been VIGOROUSLY unfricndly to the
canals" This charge is open to one rather
serious objcction-it has no foundation in fact.
During its entire career the Republican party
of New-York has been trustworthy and eff-
Gent champion of the canal system, and never
has its friendship been more valuable than OF
late years The great conference of business
men which led to the adoption of the policy of
canal improvement was held in 1885. Since
then the Republicans have controlled the Legis-
lature most of the time, and at every session
when they have been in the majority have
made liberal appropriations for lock length
ening and other needed improvements at the
same time wagng war against extravagant or
uncalled- for canal bills.
On the whole the best thing that Governor
Flowers friends can say about the veto is
nothing at all. In other words, it is indie

GOvERNOR FLOUEEs APOLOGISTs.

The Democratic newspapers of the State
evidently realize that in vetoing the Canal
Improvement bill Governor Flower committed
serious blunder. both from public and a
purely partisan point of view. The result
is that these organs have divided into three
classes. The more Independent of them,
like THE Buffalo Courier" from which
we have already quoted, and 1.-The Brook
lyn Eagle" condemn the veto. Another class
which includes THE Utica Observer" treats
it with brilliant flashes of silence the rest
approve it-at least they make an earnest eff
fort to do so, and if they don't succeed at least
they make ont to apologize for it.
OF these apologists the most interesting is
"Thc Albany Argus" 1t does not pretend
that the appropriation was not needed-it could
not do that without setting up its opinion
against that of the Democratic Superintendent
Of Public Works. 1t says, however, that if
the Governor had signed the bill the Repub-
Leans. this being a Presidential year. would

prove costly one-scarcely less costly, IN fact,

The Democratic majority of the House, in
its wisdom, is seeking diligently to cripple the
Government in many departments. BY SO
doing it may save few dollars, but such
saving is long remove from true economy
Take as samples its action yesterday reducing
by 50 day the pay of special agents of the
Treasury. and its slicing off of $4,000 from
the appropriation for preventing counterfeit
ing. This is simply offering a premium upon
smuggling, counterfeting and other crimes of
the same kind and intelligent Democrats,
whether in or out of Congress, know this per-
fectly well.
A bill of much importance to this city be-
came law by the Governor signing it yester-
day. 1t is the bill providing for Woman
Reformatory to be built either in Newly ork
or WestcheSter County. and with its provisions
readers of The TRIBUNE are familiar. This
Institution will supply what has been in the
most literal sense long felt want. When it
is established, youthful criminals of the gentler
sex will have the same opportunities for
reformation and for an environment of right
influences that are provided for young men who

that this has not been the case hitherto. The
earnest advocates of Woman's RefOrmatory
are to be congratulated on the success of their
labors.
The true inwardncss of Governor Flower S
approval of the so-caled Drafted Mems bill is
exposed in our Albany correspondence. The
bill provides for the repayment to men who
hired substitutes during the Civil War of the
money spent by them for that purpose. 1t is
On outrageous measure, with nothing to com
mend it. Mr.. Flower however, virtually

JONES SUCCESSFUL.

Peaceful Ending of the Choctaw Troubles
Gov. Jones Declared Re- Elected.
TUsKAHOMA, l. T., Oct S.-The sus-
pense that has prevailed here during
the present week in regard to the gu,
bernatorial contest is at an end.
At $3.50 the two houses of the Choctaw
council met in joint session and pro.
ceeded to canvass the returns. A de-
tachment of soldiers was placed on the
capitol grounds to prevent the possibil-
ity of trouble Agent Bennett and
Capt. Hayes and Lieut.. Jones, of the
Fifth United States cavalry, were per-
mitted to be present and witness the
count. At 1880 the sergeant-at-arms
was sent out to notify Gov. Jones that
he had been declared elected.
He at once proceeded to the hall OF
representatives and in the presence OF
the two houses and few outsiders was
sworn in by Chief Justice Garland.
The canvass gave Gov. Jones 1,7O4 and
Jackson 1929. AS returned Jones had
1,7O5 and Jackson 1897. There were
sixty-eight Jackson votes thrown out
and one Jones vote. Savannah pre-.
cinct, in Buxy county, one of the
strongest national precincts in the ma.
ton, had no returns for governor.
How this happened nobody seems To
know, but there was no evidence that
any election had been held there.

vices.
Last evening the Italian colony, ur.
der the auspices of the minister, Baron
Fava, begun its Columbian celebration
at the Lenoy lyceum with a concert
and discourse by DR.. Luigi Keversi on
Columbus.
In the afternoon many people visited
the Italian transport, Garigliano, which
brought over the Columbus monument.
All day long there was a dense crowd
on Fifth avenue, Broadway and other
important streets, viewing the decora.
tions.
For the first time in some weeks the
sounds of the hammer and saw were
not heard. The decorations of the public
and private buildings are all completed.
Flags and banners are streaming from
every pole along the line of march Of
the four big professions A very pop
ular feature of the celebration is t.
go to the top Of some high building and
enjoy a birds eye view, which shows a
long line Of colors stretching from the
Battery to Central Park, and from river
to river, with flags waving from the
housetops on all sides. The trellis
arches at Twenty-second street, the
Manhattan Club building and the resi-
dence of eX-Secretary Whitney were
visited by thousands.
Along Fifth avenue from Madison
square to Thirty-fourth street there are
a series of standards, 100 in number
from which depend pointed gonfal,ons
and flags bearing the arms of Ferdi.
nand, Isabella, Columbus and others.
The standards are surmounted by gilt
eagles and decorated at their bases
with civic shields. Broadway is
now a kaleidoscope of changing
cOlors. All the large whole.
sale houses in the dry goods dis,
trict are artistically draped with gay
bunting. The center piece in most
cases is painting of Columbus on one
side and of Washington on the other.
The draping on most of the hotels is
now completed. From the Morton
house to the Plaza decoration is gen.
eral. The city hall is probably the
most profusely and artistically draped
edifice in the city.

The Florida Election.

JACKSONVILLE, Fla, Oct 6.-The vote
of the state is hardly as heavy as was
expected. This is accounted for by the
fact that the poll tax requirements kept
down the aggregate of qualifications in
all parties Up to II o'clock full re-
turns had not been received from any
one of the forty-fve counties, but pre-
einet votes furnished a good basis for
calculations. Mitchell, democrat, has
carried the state by at least $4,000 ma
iority, though his vote will hardly reach
$4,000, which is 10000 less than the vote
polled for Fleming, democrat, in 1888.

possibility, show up with more than
5000, which is $4,000 less than the re-
