cratic county convention, which lasted
from 10 o'clock this forenoon until late

contest between the Mclean and anti

fist fights. and late this afternoon half a
hundred delegates began fighting with
chairs Fortunately nobody was seriously

Up to O'Clock this evening no chair
man had been selected. Then the anti

the war in the Philippines. Resolutions
were adopted denouncing the war as I'M
holy, and demanding its discontinuance.
All the speeches agreed in the assump-
ton that the purpose of the war was
either subjugation or ANNEXATION. They
also contrasted the Cuban with the Phil

same terms were offered the Filipinos as
the Cubans the war would not last an

Rose Licha's Insanity.

Rosa Licha, an 1S-year-old girl, was
yesterday adjudged insane in the probate
court, and was committed to the state
hospital at Rochester by Judge Bazille.
Her insanity had its origin three years
ago, when one day she was left alone in
the house while her family went to q
picnic. The house was locked, so that
the only entrance was through the cellar.
Something frightened the girl while she
was alone, and when her parents return
ed she was insane Her condition has
been gradually growing worse since.

PARIS, July S.-The facts which are

shamefully cruel and Illegal treatment of
Capt. Dreyfus on Devils island are gain
ing him more and more public sympathy.
An entire revulsion in opinion Is immi-

him by Capt Dreyfus' brother. Some
days, he said, Capt. Dreyfus was pro-
vided only with convicts food, and for
months at a time he never received the
letters of his wife and brother. The tenn
perature on that island, even on winter
nights, never fell below TO- and sometimes
Dreyfus sank under sunstroke.

ally. A special train brought him over
the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad and
he was received at Camden Station
by host of admirers who rendered
him rousing ovation. His way from
the depot to the Hotel Rennert, where
the hero was presented with the testi-
monial, was more than triumph.
Passing through unbroken ranks of
wildly cheering admirers, he must
have felt that the people of his native
State had not yielded the point, but
really considered him to be the de-
facto hero of Santiago. AS many as
could possibly do SO, broke down all
the barriers of restraint and grasped
the Admiral by the band.
The banquet was one of the largest
and most successful in the history of
the Hotel Rennert. The opening ad-
dress was made by the chief executive
of the State, who introduced General

ESCAPED THE BLIZZARD

Residents of Detroit, Mich, are to
be congratulated on escaping the
force of the late blizzard" as will be
seen by the following:
Residents of Detroit who have
groaned under the meteorological i'll
flictions of the last two weeks are
practically in out OF the cold. The
polar wave, which lowered the mer-
curry to ~ degrees on the wrong side
of zero in some parts of the State, and
to temperatures ranging from 20 to 10
degrees generally, only produced IS
degrees below the zero mark at De
troit. 1t was accompanied by fair
weather and but little wind. AS the
wave passed On toward the cast and
the south it grew worse, foi it whiried
up u blizzard and dropped it upon
people who were not prepared Tor
such weather. New York, New Eng
land and Pennsylvania have been
buried in snow. Train service on Il
number of of railroads has been in-
terrupted. Down at Washington,
where the winters are usually brief
and mild, the residents are wuding
leg deep in snow and wondering il
the polar circle has slipped its collar.
Snow three feet deep around the
national capital and drifts that half
| bury the houses are unprecedented.
A zero temperature reaching as far
down the Mississippi valley as Nicks-
| burg means terrible suffering to
thousands of people. Southern houses
are commonly elevated clear from the
| ground SO that the wind sweeps under
them as well as on all other sides.
| They are thin walled and easily per
meated by the wind, which makes
them comfortable in summer, but in
a zero temperature it means that they
are without adequate heating facili-
ties and that the occupants mutt use
all their resources to keep from freez-
ing. Large quantities of stock, un,
used to the severe temperature, will
| gather in dense masses and die slowly
of the unaccustomed exposure. Sheep
and cattle which roam the piney
woods all winter will furnish plenty
| of food for the brzzards this spring.
Orange growers who have defied the
weather by insisting that they were
safe from frosts, have met with
another ruinous setback and so have
the truck farmers of Florida. Detroit
ers have every reason for self-con-
or tulation, for they have escaped
with light visitation the rigors of
the winter of 199S-99.-DetrOH Ereh-

GOOD NOMINATIONS.

Under the above head we propose
to speak very plainly to the voters Of
Hartford county, regardless Of past
affiliations.
There have been times when it was
regarded that a nomination on the
Democratic ticker was equivalent tC
an election, but owing to the disaf
fection of late years a floating vote
while not large, has held the balance
of power, and dictated elections as tc
what they deemed best.
This vote is composed of some OF
the best citizens of the county. They
are not in politics for position or in
fuence, but simply feel that they are
actuated by what they feel is good for
the community.
1t is no use for the practical pollt;-
clans to attempt to be-little this re-
spectacle portion of the community
we all know their weight has been
felt and will continue to be a strong
factor in all of our elections.
To this element we should accord
what is due them.
Hartford county is strongly Demo
cratic, and with proper nominations,
it is no trouble to elect the ticket. In
spite of our 1,700 negro voters the
white man can and will rule, but we
should remember that the people will
demand and expect only the best and
strongest nominations.
