' 7* ' Norwalk. .
Now that the Elections are over and the

" partisan strifes and bitterness at do end, we’

pmpose to again urge upon every citizen of
Norwalk, the importance of giving some at-
tention to local improvements. Blessed as
' we are, by universal acclaim, with one of the
‘most beautiful and inviting localities be
tween New York and Boston, it becomes a
tance whether we

" will invite hither an increased population,

' 'fwith 'its inevitable wealth and consequent

prosperit or whether by our continued 10-
cal and 11,3111!ch unthrift and shiftlessnes's
‘ we shall r'epel those who desire to come and
I settle down among us. We rejoice to ob-

serve that already a town meeting is called

peels, gutters and beds of weeds and rocks,

'[no'intelligent‘citizen can afford to be indif-

tion, which while a creature of its indulgence
and forbearance, never ceases to work all

- ' the injury it can to the prosperity . and peo:

ple of‘our' State.

In our judgment, however, no 'project
claims a more; earnest advocacy than the im-
mediate organization and completion of the'
“NORWAL’K Warns Worms)? In the year
1862, the writer of this secured the Charter
for NOrwalk of .a Water Company. The
then pending war, absorbing every other in-

’ terest 'and purpose, the organization has been
permitted to slumber, and such are the un-
erring indications of a great and '- rapid
growth, that it is' better that nothing has
been done. .IThe present charter made no-
provision and contemplated nothing beyond
a copious supply of water for family pur-
poses. . A new project, or rather enlargement
Of the Other, now contemplates that in ad-

' dition to all the needs of the family, the
sprinkling of streets, reduction of Insurance,

‘ and ornamental purposes, such as fountains
and the like. We-shall also have mechanic-
al‘porcsr’in such force and capacity as shall

.Idraw hither an almost endless variety of me}

chanical operatives, where machinery and

. power are required. To accomplish this
. important purpose, singularly enough, some
half-dozen feasible reservoirs in adjoining
3' towns may be procured on almost equally
‘ favorable terms; for one, we mean to devote
‘ our energies to its final consumation. Every
-~..Citizen who pays taxes, who has a dollar Of
-" Insurance, has a house, grounds, or indeed
: who desires to breathe a pure and healthy
.Iatmosphere, not poisoned by, stagnant gut-
:ters, is most deeply interested in this enter-
prise, anId we hope to see the people of Nor-

walk a unit, for once, in its suppOrt and fa- .
