THURSDAY, APRIL 6, 1376.
Connecticut Election.
The election in this State, came off on
Moa Jay last, and was carried by the Demo
crats. but by largely decreased majorities, com
pared with last year's victory.
One hundred and thirty-geren towns give
Robinson 36,777 ; Inscrsoll, 42,490 ; Smith
1360; Atwater, SCI; scattering, 92. The
Republicans gain 1613 over last year.
The Legislature being Democratic insures
& Democratic successor to Senator Ferry, de
ceased, whose unexpired term Senator
En!i-h is now filling by appointment. In
tho Third Congressional District a Repub
lican successor has been elected to take the
seat of tha late Mr. Starkweather.
The Republicans of Connecticut have no
reason to be ashamed of their days, work.
Our distinguished neighbor over the
way has not yet given us that long, earnest
dismal howl over tho discovered delinquencies
of Pendleton, Hendricks and Thurmao, three
of the most brilliant of the Democratic
aspirants for tho Presidency. Not muchly.
It is not the habit of Democracy to condemn
Democratic rascals and swindlers, and Aman
dus O' Democrat is too good a Democrat to
think of striking an attitude independent of
party lines. Pendloton engineered tho steal
ing of $140,000 from thcTreasury on account
of the Kentucky Central Railroad, Hend
ricks took a deep dive through the Gatling
gun speculation, while Thurman, asattorney
for a railroad company made a grab at the
public generally, and yet Democracy can only
find voice to decry Republican swindlers,
Not so is it with Republicans who denounced
rascality everywhere, and demand prompt
punishment for crime.
It i3 none too early to begin the work of
organization if we wish to do effective work
in the coming campaign. We have been for
so long a time fighting the battles of the
party and the county wholly independent of
organize t ion each man working on his own
hook that it is hardly thought necessary
to meet, consult and decide as to the best
method of securing improved results for the
future. Rut we must begin to give thi
matter its proper and full consideration. In
deed, if we ever hope to better our condition
as a party ; to increase our vote and do real
-service in the great cause we cannot order a
halt of the old style of promiscuous, ' helter
skelter marching a moment too soon. The
day for independent individual fighting has
passed l y. The day for firm united joining
in the work of securing victory has arrived,
and if we wish really to became a power in
this thus far benighted region of Democracy,
cow is the word we mast adopt as our motto,
aud now is just the time proper to start the
great ball of victory rolling in that direction.
It is but a couple of weeks ago that a num
ber of Republicans met in consultation aud
resolved to set this ball of victory in motion
by the appointment of a uew County Stand
ing Committee. The work is not yet accom
plished, but the time has arrived in which it
should be done, and well done too. The
Committee should be composed of active,
tamest men men noted for their energy,
their honesty, their capacity for the work
vakh wii! necessarily fall in tbjir way, and
who arc known by their fellow men of all
parties for the possession of these characteris
tics. Such men can readily be found, as true
t the principles of Repubhcaisiu, as is the
needle to the poll in all sections of the coun
try. It is not necessary that they delight in
tinsel, or come decked in fus3 and feathers ;
on the contrary it is better that they come as
plain com tnou sense men more eager to work
than indulge in display. To find such men
it is only necessary to consult with the mass
of the brethren throughout the country, and
to secure a good, effective working committee
it is ouly necessary, w hen found, to consti
tute them leaders in the sense that position
on the County Committee makes them 6uch.
With a Committee thus formed, and of the
material indicated, the work of organization
will be more than half accomplished in the
very beginning, and the work of holding
meetings, forming clubs, and distributing
documents will be arranged almost as soon as
tho convention at Cincinnati gives assurance
as to under whose banner Republicanism is
to march to certain victory iu November.
And more than this. For as we intimated
in a former article, euch a committee and
euch organization will bo productive of a
Republican vote in Monroe county, such as
cannot fall to surprise even the most euthu
6ustic of our brethren. 1
In view of this more than probability, had
we not better begin the work now? "Time
once passed never returns," contains a truth
as important to politicians as it has to the
thousands of school boy3 who have found it
at once an admonition and an example in the
old time copy book, and as Republicans of
Monroe county, we shall all be terribly
tlereliet of duty if, in this important matter
of organization, we do not adopt it as our
prime moter, and act promptly audenergeti
caKy.
The Post-office Department lias selected

that business generally was reviving in that
