Is It Not a Mistake ?

The city council should never
have monkeyed with the sewer
specifications. Home material
should have had the preference,
but the contractors should have
been compelled to live up to the
specifications, so far as work and
material is concerned. A poor
sewer system is worse than no
sewers.

MIDDLETowN, N. Y, June 22.-The ex- treme drought of the past month has cut the hay crop one-half. Farmers in Orange county arc cutting all the grass possible under the circumstances.
 For almost all that keeps up in us per manently and efrectually the spirit of re- gard f'.- liberty and the public good we must look to the unshacklcd and inde' pendent energies of the press.-Hallam.
 The newspaper is the chronicle of civili, zation. It is q daily and slcepless watch man that reports to you every danger which menaces the institutions of youI country. It is law book for the indolent, a sermon for tho thoughtless, library fol tho poor.-Bulwer.
 Tho newspaper is the familiar of al men, of all degrees, of all occupations. | it teaches, it teaches imperceptibly. Il has no pompous gown or scholastic rod t' abash or control, but prepares itself and 1: admitted freely and at Once to n worldwide intimacy with all kinds and conditions O people.-Hunt.

HOWGATE CONVICTED.
Jury Finds the Ex-Omcial Guilty of For
 gery.

gery.
 WASUINGTON, Juno 22-Thc Howgate jury brought in a verdict of guilty on each indictment, one indictment being for forgery and one for Justification of ac counts. The jury added n rccommcnda- tion to mercy. An appeal on a bill of eX captions has been taken to the district court of appeals and probably will come up in October.
 The verdict was a surprise, as the gen Cral CxpCctation had been that the jury would either disagree or bring in a verdict of acquittal. The appeal to the district court of appeals will not hc reached before October, owing to the adjournment of the court.
 Captain Huwgatr and his daughter, who has been with him throughout the two trials, tuo& the verdict calmly, though the daughter broke into tears as the con VictCd prisoner was taken back to jail The case on it's second trial occupied nine days in the taking of evidence and the ar gumcnts.
 It was given to the jury, and seven hours later the jury reported a disagree mCnt. Then they wcrc locked up for the night, and after again reporting in the morning their inability to reach q cOnclu- sion came into the criminal court and re- ported tho conviction on both indictments, Both charges were hastd on tranSaC- tion involving a voucher for services rcn- drr,d by the American Union Telegraph company, since suspended, for transmits 1 sion of cipher messages for the signal ] sCr\ ice. These services, according to the i indictments, were never performed, but ! the money falsely procured is alleged to ] have hrrn appropriated by Huwgatc for his personal uSr.

SILVER SHELVED.
Republican Leagua Convention Adjourned
 Without n Contest.

CLEVELAND, Juno 22.-The eighth na- tional convention of Republican clubs has closed All week there were apprChen- sions of an embarrassing fight on the sil- yer question, but nothing was disposed of in all the proceedings so quietly as that matter. The committee on resolutions had settled this matter by deciding to re- port that the league had TO constitutional right to adopt resolutions, and its report to that effect was approved. Constitu- tional limitations arc sometimes in the way, but in this case the constitution was considered convenient by both factions
 The gold standard men were not satis- fed, but they could not see my way to do anything better than to adopt the Patton substitute. The silver men arc Clatcd. They say if free silver was not adopted nothing else was adopted and that it indi- catcs that the Republicans cOnccdc they cannot get along without tho western states.
 Although it could not have been done without fight on the floor of the conven- tion, the western delegates expected to have antisilvCr resolutions adopted over their protests. They claim to have receiv- cd more advantage than they ever expect cd at a national Republican convention.
 It is well known that tclcgrams were received here from presidential aspirants and league Republicans in all parts of the country suggesting that any action on sill yer would be dangerous, and these advices no doubt did much toward having the hot poker dropped. The local papers inter viewed the delegates on the report of the committee on resolutions. The free sill yer men all expressed satisfaction, and the antiSilVCr mon, as a rule, would not ex' press any opinion.

BROOKLYN BRIEFS.

The brush around Turner's bridge is fairly alive evenings with young girls who call down there to have their fortunes told. It is estimated that over one hun dred persons listened to the womAn's witch cry last night and that all told she must have raked in not less than $50. Quite a good many of the class of girls who hand out their good money for this business never have a cent to contribute to better purpose.
 Over fifty persons attended the lawn festival at the residence of Miss Mamie Hanlon on Town plot last night. Under the glare of the electric light temporary plat form had been constructed and here all joined in the frivolities of the hour. the melody of the sweet singers being heard to good advantage all over the territory. An interesting feature of the exercises was the rendition of a quartette by William H. Lynch, James Marnane, James Murray and J. NJ. Lynch. Among the guests were Miss Annie Daily of Southington, Miss Mamie Hollenger of New Haven and a large number of friends from Naugatuck.
