The New Haven lender printed a news
article and an editorial in opposition to
the passage of the g ster
police bill by the state I
The bill has already passed the Ho by
an overwhelming majority and
seems to beno meson to doubt that the
Senate will take concurrent action.
Henry C. Rowe, president of the State
Oyster Growers' association, when shown
the Leader articles, commented upon
them as follows: «
“The leader delivered a fervid exhor-
tatlontothe Senate to ‘kill the oyatlr
police bull,’ and attempted to give rea-
sons for doing so. It asserted that it was
“class legislation,’ and claimed that there
was no more propriety in instituting an
oyster police than there would he in the
institution of a bank police, insurance
police. and so on. The argument was
plausible, but the author was evidently
unacquainted with the most important
facts bearing on the matter, or else he
purposely kept them out of sight. He
did not, however, keep out of sight a
ludicrous exhibition of conceit, for he
assumes Ithat he has discovered agreat
impropriety in passing the oyster police
bill, when it has been considered with
the ntmoetcare by the leading lawyers
of the House of Representatives, and
beenzpronounced by them not only per
fectly proper leigislation. but that jus-
tice absolutely demanded the passage of
the bIll.
"This writer in the Leader does not
hesitate to blow a loud blast upon the
utter impropriety of enacting into law
this measure which was carefully con-
sidered and advocated in the House by
such experienced jand able lawyers.
judges and law-makers as Stiles Judson,
Jr., of Stratford;Judge Cowell, of We-
terbury; George M. (loan, of Milford;
Henry GJNewton, of New Haven; E, 0
Hull, of Monroe. and Herbert Williams,
of Salisbury.
"Not only did the best lawyers in the
House approve the measure, but men
from all the; varied pursuits advocated
it—merchanls, bankers, mechanics and
farmers—not only from the coast, bn'
from the interior of the state, spoke in
favor of the bill.
”Nolmeasnre has been considered be.
f Ire the:kessntlflouse of Representatives
that was ,‘Lso fully debated as was the
oyster police bill. It was considered for
over three hours, and was pamd by a
majority Lupon twbich estimates have
varied from'threo to one to live to one,
It waslthe first measure of this session
which'JIas been made a special order of
the day, thus giving the matter great
prominence Lbefore the House, so that
every member; had ample vopportunit
to study the subject; and at the close 4
the debate—the longest of the semian—
therc,werotstill remaining a dozen moms
here who wished to speak in favor of the
bill, but. who favored the previous quot
tion instead of speaking, because every
one was convinced that the House had
amply and carefully considered the
measure.
“Before the measure wont to the
House it was fully considered by the
committee, and it was supposed that the
oommilteefivas unanimous, seven of the
members, including both chairman and
the clerk, being in its favor: it was
learned; afterward, however, that two
abrent members opposed the hill, and
one of them made two or three speeches
in the House in opposition to it, which
were much more ludicrous than c Invinc-
the.
"The Leader writrr. in his exhorlac
tloo, entirely omitted to notice the fact
that the oyster grounds of the state are
.sItuatsd entirely differently from any of
the other classes of property mentioned.
“Thetreasurs and eridenoesof value
of the banks and insurance companies,
and so on, which he alludes to, are
stored in their burglar proof
rsultsin their massive building in the
central parts of the greatest cities of our
state: there they enjoy the protection of
the police of those cities, although they
aresxempt from paying for thatpoites
protection in the same ways that other
properties pay for them.
“The mutual life insurance companies
pay one-quarter of one psroent.,whlls

caresvsu to find out whether the land

This barren tract the oyster growers of
the state bought and made productive,
and upon it have ousted an industry
which has horn worth millions upon ll!-
lions of dollars to the state, in product of
food and furnishing employment direct
ly and indirectly to many thonssndsof
persons yearly. in addition to that, the
oyster growers have paid to the state
.over $60,000 for ground, and over $30,
000 for taxes; that in addition to the luv
direct benefits the oyster growers have
paid directly into the state treasury over
3140 000, which still stands to their
credit.

Hudson, it was a most extravagant and
ill-managed institution, and the oyster
growers petitioned that it should be alml
ished. it was the old. extravagant com-
mission which originated the Idea of
charging thrShellFIsh Commission to the
oyster growers. They sought lo give the
impression in their reports, that the orn-
mission prI «breed the Income; but it was
the oyster growers who paid the state the
income, and the old commirslun who
count it. it is ridiculous to charge the
commission to the oyster growers
”The commission of the last few years
composed of Mersrs. Waldo, Swanz and
Beardsley, has been an exceedingly rill
cient, economical and busineesvlihe body;
but they are state officers, and the com-
nussiun was created for the bent fit of the
oyster growers.
