Echo answers that George White and Judge Cowell were not opposed to the movement.
 MT Durant has gone to Old Point Comfort to rest few days, and for the comfort he so sadly needs. Yes terday toward the close of the days contest he was far from looking a we'll man.
 An. but isn't Attorney Guilfoile sprinter? How he did crawl over Brother Peasley's head and pursued Mr Lilley with such speed that many think if the hattie had lasted little longer he would have outstripped him, too.
 The moment Janitor McGraw put his head inside the door of his juris- diction. the court house building. this morning. he said: Well. what do you think of the situation now?" For the past two months the janitor has been askin. this question night. noon and mornin. of the court attaches. and it is still q vigorous question with him.
 Chris Dunphy, of the third ward, is one of the very happy men over the great showin. made by his ward yes terday- Mir Dunphy was principally interested in getting up the outdoor
 
 proved so successful. The platform from which the speeches were deliv cred was decorated by him.
 The whiskey that was captured by the police yesterday in vacant tene- ment on Spring street was the prop erty of one of the republican candi- the police station for it. saying they needed it for i celebration they were getting up for Mir Durant. The liquor was denied them on the grounds that it would do less harm ill the custody Of the police.
 The electors of the fifth district meant what they said to William Ken nedv Monday night when they shout ed to him from the street that they would stand by him regardless of the boast that they were committed to Durant. The fifth district men did noDly. Long may they wave. All the pastors Harry Durant received there did not amount to more than S5. and this was cut down by 56 republican pastors for Kennedy.
 Some democratic wa., evidently Suf- ferin. bitterly from the results of yes terlay's battle. exhibited his feelings in a significant manner on North Main street this morning. He hung milk pail on a telegraph pole. labelling it with this inscription: -Four years more of the full dinner pail" and in side the pail he placed q bladder. sig nifying that the argument furnished the dinner pail is still all wind
 II expect to hear from MT Kennedy in the senate'' said one of, Water 011nSr nH democrats to a reporter of this paper today. "The old time democrats of Naugatuck kand Waterbury like him as q neighbOr and as a man and q per son. who commands the confidence and respect of those who are near him cannot be very bad or they would find it out and expose him. Next to Mir Bronson. Mir Kennedy was my choice of the ticket. though. of course l voted for every mGn on it.'
 The counting in the fourth ward went along without hitch until the vote of the republican justices of the peace was being counted. Then Col onel Doherty. one of the counters, after calling out the name of Attorney Bron- son. followed it up with q volley of GUS words closing thus, Did I vote for him. The fact that he unwittiugly did, for who thinks of the justices of the peace ill national election, seem ed to worry the coloneI q good deal. However he made a lot of fun for his fellow counters.
 Samuel l.. Bronson will not be the next governor of Connecticut. but that is something the people of this town cannot be held responsible TOT. When Mir Bronson spoke here he said that when he should look over the returns he would be able to tell what it was worth to have been born in Water bury. All right, MT Bronson. Look at them and satisfy yourself that we sent you out of the city of your birth on horseback and if the democrats in other towns allowed you to be dis placed by Mclean that was matter we had nothing 10 do with.
 One of the amusing features of the evening. exciting as it was. was the portly form of John E. Wells stand ing near Cones corner with Old Glory wrapped around him. An adniring crowd of republicans stood around him but Wells was looking over them His optics were in quest Of friend whom he was to carry home on his back as the result of wager. Wells was so confident that Mckinley would win that he would wager to take his tD " aleFtO"n OH HIS DaCk. The wager will be carried out some even- ing this week.
 If there is man in Waterbury who feels like getting out Of the republican camp, that man is Attorney F. NJ. Peasley. He e.was whipped by his own party, and on q day, tGo, when one, would think that the people would not stop to waste time getting square with an enemy.s Of course. he was pitted against an extremely popular man, At torney Guilfoile. but even so, the re suit of the other elections shows that the man who nominated him did not want to see him elected. We are not sorry that MT Peasley didn't get there. still we are free to state that. so far as we know. he is . tolerab bly good fel- low and there appears no reason why the party he is associated with should make foot ball of him.
 George Lilley owes his success at the polls to his attack upon Perry Morris and town officials in general and now that he has got an office him self the public will be curious 10 see how he will use it and if he will saye
