A Gentleman's Views On Propcrry's
Rights.

Editor NeC York Journal:
A few OF us were dining together last
night and incidentally we talked pol,
tics. Ia the first place, it is well to il.
fern ycu that our little company Was
composed of rich men; yet, without an
exception, We expressed ourselves a.
being willing TO shed our blood if need
were in defence of the sacredness Of
property. need not tell you, | take
1t, that surprise was voiced, and indg-
nation, toe, at the stand taken by the
journal iu this campaign. in which the
ouly issue, ss Mr. Whitelaw Reid and
Mr.. Roc evelt have we'll said, is the
Eighth Commandment.
1t is both astonishing and painful to
find New York newspaper encourag-
may leud to serious trouble-may
make necessary the employment of the
army to secure that stability of society
which is threatened in this country
every four years, and now more open.
" tnan ever before. You affect to bA-
lieve that the average voter, the me-
chanic ard laborer and farmer, is COM
peieno to pas; judgment upon problems
81 difficult ana intricate as those of Ii,
nance. TO put that notion into COM
mon mems heads is not only foolish,
but positively wicked. Do you not see
that you are inviting the spoliation Of
the bt -ar classes-anarchy
In my judgement, the great necessity
in this country, now and always,
is leadership. Universal suffrage is
mistake, but since we have it all those
who speak to the masses and are capa-
ble of Intelligent patriotism should seek
to imbue them with humility and to
point cut to them the duty of submit
ting their minds to those who are ADLER
and better informed than themselves.
Despite all the utterances of demago-
CUES, the real test of mans capacity
and character is his ability to accumu
late property. Those who thus demon
strate their power to take care OF their
own interests are, it seems to me, OBJ
viously the most capable OF guiding
Alright their less braiuy feIlow-citizens.
They are, in fact, the elite of the ma
tion, and by every principle OF justice
and sound policy should be intrusted
with the task of ruling it.
am aware that my views are not
those which are popular at a time like
this when anarchy, socialism and
demagogy stalk unchecked up and
down the land, but they meet With the
full concurrence of my friends at the

STATE PHARMACISTS.
John ". Lowe Hnnnred

Bridgeport, Feb. 5.--At to-day's ses- sion of the Connecticut Pharmaceutical association the report of the board of pharmacy commissioners was submitted to Henry M. Bishop of New Haven, secretary of the board
 The report showed that 734 licenses have been granted during the year, of which 667 were renewals, forty-four on tificates and diplomas The board made ninety-seven individual examinations and passed forty-seven.
 Forty-four persons were granted li- censes and certificates of examination, three were granted certificates only, as they were not located in the state, and fifty failed to qualify. The total re- ceipts of the board were s1,907, and the total expenditures $1,3670S.
 The board says in it's present report that it is of the opinion that the time is not far distant, if it has not already arrived, when some preliminary educa- tional requirements should be made one of it's rules, and, although aware of it's authority under the law to make such a rule, it would be gratifying to the mem- bers of the board if the members of the Pharmaceutical association would give them the benefit of their opinions in regard to the wisdom and advisa- bility of adopting rule of this kind.
 A certificate of examination equal to an entrance examination to a high school has been suggested as base for the adoption of such @ rule.
 The Pharmaceutical association to-day elected the following officers: Presi- dent, Curtiss P. Gladding of Hartford; first vice president, Frederick s. Stevens of Bridgeport; second vice president, John w. Lowe of New Haven; secretary, A. s. Clark of Waterbury; treasurer, Lester H. Goodwin of Hartford.

Mechanics, Lecture Course.

The program of the Mechanics course contains rather less than the usual number of lectures dealing with strictly scientific topics, but a larger number dealing with important questions of the day.
 First among those is the question of good roads, and any one who has had occasion recently to ride bicycle through Grove street will not fail to be attracted by the opening lecture of the course on French roads and road mak- ing by General A. P. Rockwell. It will be a surprise if the audience does not at once organize a society and try to i'm prove our own roads.
 Among the other questions of the day that are treated are: "The Forest and it's Management" by Mir Clifford Pin chot; "The New Industrial South" by Hon. Carroll D. Wright; The Spanish Colonial System" by Professor Bourne, and Mexico and the French Interven- tion,' by Professor T. s. Woolsey.
 The course is varied, however by having a number of illustrated lectures such as the one Municipal Art" by MT. Fox of Boston; "The Early Develop ment of the Egg" by Professor Wilson of Columbia; "The Roman Forum" by Professor Tracy Peek, and Modern Greece" by Professor Goodell.
 The tickets are. as usual, on sale at the bookstores of T. aPease & Son, H. H. Peck, F. P. Judd, and at the Yale Cooperative store.

Probate Court Judge Cleaveland. 1.

Mrs. Chase's claim of S100 was allowed on the estate of the late Charles A. Chase. She used the money to purchase mourning apparel.
 Next week there will be a hearing on the application of James E. Reilly for the appointment of a trustee on the es- tate of Mary R. Grace, deceased.
 The case came up before Judge Cleaveland last Monday, when some de- cided objections were interposed by the heirs of the deceased and the case was continued for a week. Attorneys Mar tin & Coyle are counsel for the appli- cant and Attorneys Lynch & Doroff and James T. Moran have been retained by the heirs of the late Mrs. Grace.
 James F. Reilly is a well known re- tired mason builder who for many years was engaged in business in Springfield, Mass.
 It appears that he desired to be made Mrs. Grace. The late Mrs. Grace was his sister and some twenty years ago transferred to her 8 piece of real estate located in Springfield, reported to be valued at about $10,00O. This property, it is claimed, was transferred in trust and that it is to regain possession of it that these proceedings have been com- menced. The applicant claims that the property belongs to him and that he merely wants to clear the title Other complica tions may arise.

 Judge Hotchkiss issued an injunction restraining Dr. Converse from serving execution on property of H. w. Smith Of Winter street. Some time ago Dr. Converse gave to Attorney George H.

 Superior Court-Civil Side-Judge Shum-
 way.
 Deputy Sheriff Chatfleld was given a verdict of $700 and costs against G. E. Bunnell and George F. Peterson. The jury so decided after short delibera- ton yesterday morning.
 The suit is the one which arose out of the attachment of the receipts in Bob by Melville of London" Chatfield made the attachment, taking the money. He was then arrested on complaint Of MT. Bunnell. Judge Harrison, who appear ed for MT. Bunnell, gave notice of ap- peal.
 The Armstrong will contest took up the rest of the day. Some time was taken up in selection of a jury.
 The will which is contested, is that of the late Lorenzo Armstrong of this city, who died last June, leaving near ly half a million of property. To Ellz- abeth Armstrong, who was his daugh- ter by his second wife, he gave $5,000,
  tween his other three children about equally. The appellant claims that the will was not the testamentary act of the deceased, and it was obtained by undue influence, and that the deceased was of unsound mind and incapable of | making will
 Two juryn1en were excused by coun- | sel, and Alden Hill of North Branford was objected to by Attorney Stoddard who asked that Hill be excused by the court, as he had business relations with Judge Harrison. The business relations consisted in his selling MT. Zacher, MT Harrison's partner, a bushefof potatoes and of his having testified as an expert for the Consolidated railroad in case l in which MT. Harrison appeared as counsel.
 Attorney Stoddard then claimed that Hill had dined with MT. Harrison on | Tuesday,
 Well, I can explain all there was to that. I was eating at Ferry's restau- l rant and looking up saw Judge Harri- son sitting opposite. went over to him to congratulate him on being appointed superintendent of Trinity Sunday school"
 This caused a laugh. Judge Shum- way declined to excuse the jury and l then Attorney Stoddard peremptorily i challenged him.
 The jury was finally sworn as fol- lows: Charles A. Dudley of Guilford, E. s. Kelsey, Charles H. Parker, Joseph D. Kelsey of Madison, Willard H. Dibble, John T. Basham of Middlebury, William 5.
