 THE Conn. Temperance Union held it's annual meeting in Bridgeport last week. J. W. Manning of Putnam was elected president Rev,J. H. James of Rockville, secretary; J. M. Taicott of Ellington one of the eight vice presidents and H. L. James of Rockville one of the executive committee. The topics for discussion were based upon the elimination of the saloon. The Union is resolved that it's proper work is in the line of destroying rather than restraining the rum traffic. It's dec laration of principles is that 'The saloon is the. enemy of every citizen. 1t takes money which man cannot afford to waste, giving in exchange diseased bodies, de- praved morals, poverty, disgrace and ruin. It pollutes and debases young men, making iends of those who should be good citizens. It is the destroyer of homes. It is the rallylng place of the bad and dangerous classes. It is the breeding place of all crime and mischief It is the ever ready tool of corrupt and corrupting politicians. Itis leach upon society, plundering sober citizens, not only through the misdeeds of drunken people, but by heavy and needless taxes.
 Ut is cancer upon the community, poisoning it's life-blood and spreading all baneful influences.
 Let 1t be remembered that such state- ments as these apply not to few but to all dram shops. There may be apparent distinctions, but these are not real. The low haunt of the openly vicious may be more dangerous to the community at large, but the gilded sample room of the first class hotel can give downward start to respectable young men who would not enter the dive There is no way in which any saloon really serves the inter- sets of the people. Every saloon is to the community where it is located a menace, a nuisance and curse"

Henry Watterson Of Kentucky is I'M
defstood to be laboring with the lelega-
ton from the Blue Grass state IN the eff
fort to secure the solid vote of that state
for John G. Carlisle, and Senator Daniel
w. VOORHEES, of Indiana is making a like
demand from the Hoesier state In behalf
of ex-GoY. Isaac T. Gray. It's also re-
ported that the prominent Democratic
leaders of these three states are endeav-
oring to secure a conference of delegates
by which it will be mutually agreed that
| the nomination of Cleveland is to BE de-
clared inexpedient and the votes which
he might otherwise receive from these
states are to be distributed among the
favorite sons, Palmer receiving the forty
eight votes Of Illinois, Carlisle receiving
| the twenty-six votes of Kentucky and
Gray receiving the thirty votes OF lndi-
ana. Palmer and Gray were formerly
endorsed by their respective conventions
as presidential candidates, and Kentucky
only refrained from instructingfo for Cleve-
land because Of the probability that Car
Isle might be ushered into the contest at
the latest hour. Thus the delegation of
these three states are practically free to
act as they please in an emergency, and
the great question of the hour is, Will
they abandon Cleveland in the interests
| of the Western candidates?

The selection of Whitelaw Reed as the
republican nominee for vice-president, is
an unwise one SO far as the popularity of
the ticket is concerned. Reed. while The
| Tribune was under the control of Horace
Greeley, cal ned some little reputation as a
forclble writer, a reputation which he
has done nothing since the death of the
| great journalist, to sustain or Justify.
When Greeley was nominated for the
Presidency, Reed became temporary edi-
| tor-ln-chlef. When Greedy broken in
| spirit through undeseryed defeat, return
ed to The Tribune he was given to under
stand that the great paper which he
founded was no longer under his control
and he found his former chief assistant
Installed permanently as editor-in- chief
This broke the heart of the great philan.
throplst and unsettled his mind. The
Tribune under Reeds management soon
changed Its chaia tar. 1t had been a Taper
OF the people and Influenced them directly
In their homes. Greeley was protection
lst bat not in behalf of any class and the
common people loved him and respected
his paper. Reed gradually changed the
tone OF his paper until it became the or
gan of the wealthy classes and as sueb
1t is recognized to-day. He married a veal
thy woman and this further heightened his
arlstocratic spirit. The brilliant staff bv
which he was surrounded and who had
been taught to write in accordance with
their convictions, found their positions
FAR from pleasant and resigned. The Tri-
bune to-day circuIates almost exclusively
among the wealthy people and it seeks
ana cares for no other patronage. 1t is
the organ OF corporations and wants to
be recognized as such.
Reed is an aristocrat and has no SYM
pathy with the common people. He was
the go-between in the arrangement he
ween Jay Gould and Garfield for the an
po'ntment of a justice of the supreme
court who would be favorable to railroad |
interests. The bare possibility OF his elec- |
ton makes his nomination something to
be deplored.

Gov. PECK appointed John G. Ludwig
Judge of the Superior Court of Milwau-
kee in place of Judge Gibson. The APP
pointment is not by any means first
class one. Ludwig is not lawyer of
such ability as to make his selection for
a judicial position proper one. He has
no ambition to rise in his profession and
owes the prominence he has attained, by
means OF which his candidacy was con-
sidered, to his political activity If this
was on broad scale it would be an evi.
dence of capacity. But the new judges
work was in the line of petty manage.
ment. Ia Difference to the bar of Mil.
Taukee the appointment should not have
been made and in justice to his own re-
putatiOn Gov. Peck should have selected
a man of some standing at the bar for a
judicial position of such consequence as
that of superior judge.

those who talk of the defeat of Blaine
and the success of Harrison as a victory
of the people take very wrong view of
matter. 1t was a defeat of the political
bosses whom Harrison had offended.
But If Blaine's candidacy was an assur-
ed fact while the state conventions were
being, held his nomination would follow
with practical unanimity. There is per-
haps no state in the union in which
Blaine's candidacy would be less popular
than in Wisconsin, But even Wisconsin
would send a delegation instructed for
him If he was known to be In the field
when delegates were chosen. There is
something inexplicable in Blaine's tacit
willingness to be a candidate at time
when everything was in Harrison's hands.
Either he greatly overestimated his
strength or he took this means of max
ing an emphatic protest against the ad-
mlnlstratIou.

ASIDE from the fact that Cleveland is
the choice of the people there is another
reason why he should receive the demo-
cratic nomination, even though it should
not be desired by New York: 1t would
teach Tammany that it cannot dictate to
the democracy of the nation. 1t has al
ways sought to do this and in a most Of
sensive way, just as if its wishes should
be paramount to the united wish of the
national democracy. 1t opposed Tilden s
nomination in 1876 and he was elected.
1t opposed Cleveland's nomination in
1884 and he was elected. If Tammany
controls New York the sooner that state
Is put in tie column Of certain republican
states the better While the wishes of
that organization are deferred to we will
be in the midst of trouble. We should
declare for emancipation.

.Ir is reasonably certain that Cleveland
will be nominated at Chicago and the
contest next fall will be between him and
Harrison again. The advantage is most
decidedly with the democrats and success
would be absolutely certain If it was not
for the Hill faction backed by the Ran
dali element of the democratic party.
The voice of the people in the elections
o 1890 was Enthusiastically for the tariff
reform of which Cleveland is the expon-
ent. But many of the leaders refuse to
hear 1t and persist IL believing that the
people desire straddle on the leading
question before them.
