Walter M. Morris Complies
Roll of Persons Over

Walter N. Morris has compiled and

the following roll Of honor of those

served through tradition reads. "old
age is honorable" David, the psalm

why, then, should we not consider
1t an honor to be permitted to live TO
an age beyond the extreme" limit
and in some cases. with several years
Of grace thrown in? There must be
reason for this longevity, The In
splred writer further declared, "the
wicked shall not live out half theil
days" This declaration does MOI
imply that all wicked people die
young, or that all good people live t.
old age: but it does indicate tina
those who live to very old age hav,

side made a brilliant run. In fact, al- though the candidate of the minority party he outstripped two of the Re publicans landing third place among the entire eight candidates, and at that he was only Il votes below the highest alderman at large. The en- tire contest for this position was a close and interesting one. Riley B. Phillips is the other successful minor ity alderman at large.
 WHERE MARTIN FELL OFF.
 Mayor Martin showed falling off in the Democratic wards that caused his downfall. In the Second ward, usually Republican, but which he cap tured by ten votes two years ago, he was defeated yesterday by 39; in the Third, which gave him plurality of SIS before he was cut down to 174; the Fifth he lost this year; the Sixth which gave him 3O9 before dropped to an even 100 the Seventh fell from 662 to 553; the Eleventh fell but ten votes, rolling up 163 as against 173, and the Twelfth dropped from 606 to ASA
 SPLITTING NOT ELIMINATED.
 To begin with there were 9S2 more votes cast for the office of mayor this year than last time the total vote yesterday reaching 19,794. The use of the voting machines was unattended by any unp1eaSantnesS and little diff nCulCy Was 0XpSr1eHCGu Uy IH0 fOtOTS in using them. The heaviest vote in years was secured upon them and the claim that straight tickets would be the rule was utterly cast to the winds when the results were seen. The Democratic candidates varied for the controller at 10,146 to 9,301 or oyer 800 votes and the Republicans had differ ences from 9,707 for Rice, who was the leading man on his ticket, to S,653 for controller, the lowest office.
 The way in which the two parties are intertwined in the next adminis- tration also shows that splitting was not cut out, for there will be in the important offices a Republican mayor, a Republican city clerk, a Democrat ic tax collector, a Republican town clerk, a Democratic controller, Re publican registrar of vital statistics and a Democratic treasurer.
 GARBAGE PLANT APPROVED.
 The fight for the adoption or the au- thorization of a bond issue for the erection of a garbage plant was sue cessful despite the many elements that entered against it. In the first place the majority of voters either were indifferent to the proposition or as in many cases in using the ma chimes forgot all about the question so that the franchise was not exercised over strenuously on this matter. Of those who did vote on the matter 9O1 approved it and 1,522 opposed it, that it has been adopted, and the city can now go ahead and work out it's plans for such a plant.
The Bridgeport evening farmer., 1909-10-05

Overcoming a plurality of 1,567 se- cured by Mayor Martin against Mi notte B. Chatfield just two years ago. Frank J. Rice led the Republican par ty back to city hall after a two-year exile yesterday, defeating Mayor Mar tin by 4O6 votes in what is the closest election New Haven has experienced in ever a decade. >. The mayoralty fight was a close one itself but it did not compare with some of the other contests in which victory and defeat were settled by less than 200 votes out of total poll of nearly 10000 ballots! Mayor Martin was defeated by the poor showing from Democratic standpoint of the second, third and fourth wards where his majorities of previous years were very seriously cut down and also by the big vote which the Republican party boiled in their strong wards running up StupendouS majorities in some of them.
 Every fight on the ticket except that for controller and that for town clerk was a spirited one. Controller Rowe, Democrat, being returned for still an- other term by about 1,500 votes des- party while Town Clerk Whitaker outstripped the Republican candidate for mayor by some 800 votes and had a plurality of nearly 1000. Outside of Rowe there were but two SuCCeSSful Democratic candidates on the general city ticket these being William H. Hackett, the popular high school in strUctor who defeated Attorney John R. Booth for tax collector by 633 votes, and Treasurer Fresenius who secured the closest victory of the day when he defeated Harry V. Whipple by 99 votes. City Clerk Devine fell by the wayside in his effort to secure a re- election by just 1O7 votes, and Robert E. Lee, Republican candidate for reg istrar of vital statistics, landed the position by 12S votes over Vincent Ma her.
 REPUBLICANS CONTROL ALDER
 The Democratic domination of the board of aldermen is completely wip- ed away as the result of yesterdays voting, and Mayor-elect Rice will have an even greater majority in the new board than Mayor Martin has had in the present one. In the aldermen at large the dominant party will se- cure four members, all that it nonin- ated. while from the fifteen wards the party secured the First, Second, Fifth, Eighth, Ninth, Tenth, Eleventh, Thir- teenth, Fourteenth and Fifteenth, gSv- ing it ten out of fifteen so secured. This gives the Republicans fourteen members in the new board and the Democrats seven.

CAPT. BOYTON
 AN ENTHUSIAST
Some Practical Suggestions Anent Pro. posed Celebration of Progress
 in 1910. f
MAY THE MONTH HE SAYS

Captain Paul Boyton is heartily ir. sympathy with the proposed celebra- ton of progress next year. He saws that neither March nor April should be considered as the time for it as the weather would interfere with outdoor features. May, in his Judgment is the month for the event, and he adds that he will be glad to render any aid in his power. Having had years of ex- perlence in the New Orleans and Co., ney Island Mardi Gras celebration. the Yelled Prophet celebration in St. Louis and similar events in Europe. his knowledge would be valuable sii sr
 Regarding the celebration he said to-day: The newspapers have stated that the celebration could be held in March or April. I would advise weather is an important factor. Al Venetian fete effect could be easily worked up for the harbor. Every boat in the city should decorate and illuminate, and if all boatmen coop 'erated, which could be brought about without any difficulty, an attractive sight would be the result.
 Tn a large manufacturing city like Bridgeport, trades parade could be made attractive. Floats representa- tive of the history of Bridgeport could be obtained and when you con slider floats, the committee in charge of the celebration can hire them fer the occasion at a reasonable cost There are floats used in the Coney Island celebration that can be rented and made over for the occasion, thus say ing the expense of building new ones which are useless after the celebra- ton is over. Costumes can also be had for the occasion and I have no doubt that these could be obtained from those in charge of the Yelled Prophet celeberation held annually in St. Louis. {.
 Bridgeport has much interesting Indian history and in that direction much could be done in the way of re- producing Indian scenes for which there seems to be no end of histor- ical material I would also suggest a marine spectacle, such as the cap- ture of a pirate ship and it's destruc- tion. It would not be necessary to go outside of Bridgeport. I have stored here fleet of 26 miniature warships, 12 to 20 feet long, made of steel, and ern ships of war. Each is operated by a man on board and a naval show which has never been presented out side of the St. Louis Worlds fair, can be presented. I also had a naval show in EarPS Court London, some of the paraphernalia of which I think could be had.
 q have been in this city for the past three years and it's progress is wonderful, and in my time I have liv- ed in many places. The advantages to Bridgeport in such a celebration are manifold and worth the time and scale. I will be glad to help in any
