There are indications that the high
water mark of pension payments has been
reached and passed And that high
water mark was some slO0,OOO,O0O above
what President James A. Garfield
thought would ever be reached. Eight
months of the last nine show falling
off in pension payments; still the pay
ments for the current fiscal year will be
greater than the cost of the maintenance
of the German national army of 100000
men

The New York Tribune is lending itself
TO the efforts of the Hawaiian annexa-
tionists to secure from this government a
pension for eX-Queen Liliuokalani. of
Hawaii 1t could hardly do otherwise,
by the way, for it was the Harrison ad-
ministration that proposed to pay the
queen $4,000 a year as bonus for re
signing her claims to the throne. From
the anneyationist point of view, the revo-
luton in Hawaii was brought about by
Hawaiians, and not by representatives of
this government. Why, then. should this
government be called on to pay the de-
posed queen a pension2 If we are to pen
sion her, why not pension the heirs of
Balmaceda, of Chilli, and of Dom Pedro,
OF Brazil and the several overthrown
rulers of Hayti.

There is bin before the New York
legislature to give the sheriff Of New
York county salary Of $4,000 a year
and turn over all The fees Of the Office to
the county treasury. The way things 90
now, the Office of sheriff of New York
pays from $4,000 to $50, 900 year above
all expenses in salary, fees, perquisites,
etc, making it one of the latest Offices
in the United States. Tammany has con
troll of the ofice now, and is likely to
hold IT, which probably accounts Tor the
economical streak that has struck the
republican legislature. There is no doubt
that the Office is too fat TO be morally
healthful, considering its political en-
vironments, but if therepublcans had the
Office there would be no bill to reduce the
sherif's revenue in the legislature.
The Atlanta Journal strained at gnat
and swallowed a camel in seeking to re
duce the list Of candidates for the SEN
atorship. 1t strained at something to
disqualify Mai. Bacon, and swallowed the
constitution OF Georgia. Theconstitution
provides, in article 3, that no senator or
representative, after his qualification as
such, shall be elected by the general
assembly or appointed by the governor.
either with or without the advice and
consent of the Senate, TO any Office or ap-
poiatment having any emolument annexed

shall have been elected" The provision,
of course, is attended to prohibit the hold
ing Of two offices by the same person at
the same time, and was never meant or
held to apply to the election or appoint
ment Of legislators to higher Offices. To
hold that Mai. Bacon is disqualified for
the senatorship because he is a member

be ridiculous.

The Baltimore American is a delight
fully frank republican newspaper. In
discussing the Presidents veto of the
Bland bill it observes in owl-like wisdom
and child-like caudor: The mischievous
seigniorage bill is knocked in the head
and the nation IS the gamer. The people
will gladly wait now until the republi-
cans are returned to power before there
is any more tamperng with the finances"
That is the situation, precisely the peo-
pie will wait until the republicans are re
turned to power before there is any more
tampering with the finances. We repeat
the Americans assertion in order Uomake
splain the republican position on the tnan-
cial question and the Americans opinion
regarding the outlook. The democracy.
in the repeal of the Sherman act and in the
veto of the Bland bill, has served notice
that it stands for a safe currency; that it
is opposed to the tinkerIng of the govern
ment's financial policy, and that further
efforts at experimenting with miserable
makeshifts' will not be tolerated But if
the republicans were to be returned to
power, then would commence the inan-
cial tampering again, as the American
says The republicans are confirmed
tamperers. They have tempered with
the tariff dozen or more times since the
war, and with the finances every time
they have been tempered with in the last
thirty years. And according TO the
American, they do not propose to quit
their practices if they again get control
of 40 10, . hn

 To very many of the older residents of the city the news of the death of Mrs. David A. Strong at her residence in Chica- go calls up old memories of days long since bygone. Mrs. Strong was formerly Esther Homan, the daughter of MT. Homan, who was the proprietor of Homan's theater in the Exchange building of years ago. Ho- mans theater in the Exchange building fourished along in the ffties, and its pop ulsrity and success for long period is we'll remembered in this city by old inhab- was the star of the company, and as such enjoyed local popularity which it Is the privilege of but few to attain. She was c great popular fsvorite. Her husband, kr. Strong. was alec identified with "Homan's" a stage manager and scenic artist. At the same time, as we are informed, ono of Miss Romans brothers, was also member of the Homan's theatsr company. Mir. Strong became quits noted for his success as scenic artist, and many fine specimens from his brush have from time to time interested patrons of New Haven's theaters. For some years he has been engaged in his profession in Chicago. meeting with still greater success in that larger field. Mr. Charles Homan of this city is brotker of the late Mrs. Strong. The funeral services of Mrs. Strong will be held at the residence of her nephew, F. A. Frisbis, 37 Vernon street, this afternoon st 3 o'clock, the time having been changed from tomorrow ,as at first arranged, owing to the earlier arrival of the remains than was at first expected. Mrs. Strong had been in poor health for the last two or three years and had been at times great sufferer. The difficulty was an internal tumor.

BRANRORD.
The Sale of the Lock Works.

The Sale Of the Lock Works.
 The sale of the Branford Lock worke, which took place Saturday, is deplered in Branford from the fact thafit Is likely that the works will be removed. At the auction sale the property was struck off to the Yale & Towne Manufacturing company for $s2, 900, but as there are debts against the lock works of about $sO. 900, there Is prac- tically no equity for the shareholders. It was expected that the Sargent company of this city would be represented in the bid ding, but they decided not to go into the affair.
 Mayor Sargent said of the case: "Hsd we gone into the concern-Sargent & Go. and Ar. Corbin-and with Mr. Kennedy also associated with us, think we would have been able to take the stockholders through on basis of 50 cents on the dol
 lar. As 1t is, the stock of $150. 900 ts en- tirely wiped out. The company owed . l floating debt of $80, 900 and that represent
 cd the capital they were doing business on:
 The bid was for $e2, ,O0O,y so $s0, ,000 will have to be paid right out for these debts
 leaving about g, 900, which will just about | pay the expenses of the settlement of the
 estate. It is great loss to the stockhold.
 CTS. MT. Kennedy owned half of the stock l and the remainder was owned in small loti
 in Branford, Waterbury, and elsewhere, Whether the works will be moved away ol not do not knovn
