the country. She favors an extension of the
commercial relations of the country; severing
of the tribal relations of the Indians; uni
form system of divorce; such regulation of
the law of descent as will make the husband
and wife equal partners in the common busi
ness, and abolition of the pension office. In

know of course that I favor woman suffrage.
You know that I always am and always have
been the soldier's friend. It has been the ef
fort of my life to ameliorate the condition of
the working people especially the laboring
women. I am a well known temperance ad
vocate. I am closely allied with the peace
and arbitration league and am thoroughly in
sympathy with the formation of the arbitra
tion"court for the settlement of . all differ
ences among the powers. I am opposed to
monopoly, especially in the sense of the men
monopolizing all the offices and controlling
the women. If elected I shall nominate a
fair number of women as judges for United
States courts and if a vacancy should occur
on the United States Supreme court bench I
should endeavor to find a competent woman
to fill the place."

Rev. Mr. Samuel Bushnell preached a very
interesting and instructive sermon in the
Congregational church last Sabbath morn
ing. The evening service was devoted to
temperance, the Hon. Edward Carswell, of
Canada, officiating. By him the audience,
which, by the way, was the largest that has
assembled together in this place for a long
time, was much amused, to say the least, all
pronouncing it as good a "show" of the kind
as they had ever seen.
On Saturday evening last the drama "A
Fair Encounter" was played by members of
the Bushnell family in Boston street for the
benefit of the library association. It was
well rendered and all present pronounced it
a success, both in its literary character and
in its financial results. Besides the drama,
Miss Warren read a few choice selections and
Mr. Ericson Bushnell sang some of his fine
solos, which in this place need no recommo
dation. The "Jolly Girls" society have again come
to the front with an entertainment, which to
the lovers of music especially, presented a
rare treat. It was held in the chapel on
Tuesday evening. Mr. Gallup, of Hartford,
commenced the programme with a piano
solo followed by Mr. Footo, of Guilford, on
the violin. The solos by Mrs. Miner, Mrs.
Parker and Bushnell were admirably render
ed. The piano solo of Miss Smith, our
church organist was one of the finest features
of the entertainment as well as the duets by
Miss Smith and Mrs. Cudley. The whole
programme from beginning to end with not
a single exception was admirable and we are
satisfied that this town has never had the
pleasure of listening to so fine a concert for
so small a plice.
Our summer visitors have almost all left
us and the beach seems deserted now that
those who bathed so regularly have gone.
There is no fun in a bath alone, and one
has to scour the beach from one end of the
town to the other to find anyone to swim
with him, while the boats lie idly on the
beach, with no one ready to use them.
