MR. WHITI HIRE AGAIN.
ll Making Arranger‘nlnta Tor Removal
of Monmouth Pelt Olfleo.

J M White assistant inspector of
the Salary and Allowance Division of
the Post Oillcc Department In in NOI-
walk again today, to make arrange
manta for the removal of the post or.
flee from its present site.

MI. White stated to n Sentinel Ic-
porter this morning that as yet he had
not received a single woitten ‘appllca
tion as required from anyone with 'l
site to offer. The assistant inspector
seemed aomewhu-t discouraged that the
matter has not been settled.

Mr. White confirmed the statement
before made in‘those columns that it
was understood that he was in favor
of the portion oi the Norwulk Club
building now occupied by the city or
Norwnlk public library. lie was quite
enthusiastic over this place as a loca-
tion and pointed out to the reporter
its advantages as to light and other
appointments 0ch any site yet spoken
of. He knew that at the last meet-
ing of the Business Wolf In Association
at the NoI walk Hotel some days ago
It was voted that all effort be made to
Income the store now occupied
Ghiotto the fruit dealer and owned by
Mrs S.A AWeed. The post oi‘llce man
was not in the least impressed with
this place for the post olllce it he
could get the club building

He knew that there has been much
opposition to the club building, but
thought he could arlangc matteIs by
opening a sub- station in the center 01'
the city He though the course would
provo satisfactory, «us no one would

I then have use for a post omce save the '

box holders. Mr. White understood
that nearly all of the latter reside to
the west of the club building

in the event of a suitable location
being found by March 30th. Mr. White
said the government would have to
find any place they could temporarily
at least.

III response to the question

“Will youglve the readers or The Sen- T00-

linei some reasons why the proposed

ordinance should be approved by the
people?" Judge John H. Light said:

“A careful reading of the ordinance
will turnish the best possible reason to
any man of business sense why it
should be approved. It is in no wise
an experiment for every city in the
state. so far as I know. has such II
board, and the law has worked admir-

bly everywhere. it simply provides

tat six men. three Democrats and
three Republicans, shall serve the city
without pay in the capacity of a Board
of Estimate and Taxation, and as such
shnl carefully investigate the needs oi
the c ty, and make such appropriations
for the different departments of the
city as they may believe for the best

. interest of the public and the tax pay—

ers. and lay a tax to raise suillcleut
revenue to cover the same. it the tax
so laid should not prove acceptable to
the people, there is a provision of the
ordinance for caluug a city meeting to
repeal the some. and it repealed by the
umhll‘, the board would have to meet
and lay a smaller tax. This board ‘will
simply represent the people in the par-

ticular work nssizned it by the ordi-

nance as the Council now represent theI
people in other matters. It does not
prevent the holding of city meetings on
all questions which the citlnona may
desire to discuss and act upon. but it
does prevent any city meeting doing
the Work of this board. This board
will protect the tax aver by melting
only such: appropI-lc one has

tub and manifestly in the in’ 5m 0;

ot‘ the whole people. and protect the pub
iic generally by insist-lug on at will a»

expenditure of all moneys apprOpri'at-
ed It will prevent one running further
in debt. for the on! induce reunites the
board to lay a stimulant tax to carer
the appro ria‘tions mode. 80‘ we Will
have to p y as we go. it this ordinance
is approved by the people Hence, the
reasons are many and obvious why this
mdinnnco should be approvtad by the
people. it has been caretully cumin.
ed by leading citizens, both Defiocrats
and Republicans, and they have heart‘
ily indor‘sed it. And the Republican
Committee has indorsed it; and i am
satisfied the people will do so tomor~
row unless they are mislead into be-
having the law as proposed Would be
injurious to them They should under-
cal measure. and ,therefore. their atti—
stand that this is in no sense a politi-
tude toward it ought not to be govern.
ed by any stand taken by either the Re-
publican or Democratic Committee:
but they should approve or disapprove
the ondinance agreeable to what. they
believe to be for the best interest of
this city, whiCh we all love.

in part at least, and yesterday the ad-
jntant general isaucd orders disband
ing two companies of that regiment,
those at incatuck and Danielson.
Some such action has been anticipated
for some time and the condition or

. some other companies or the regiment

indicates that they are deficient in re-
cuperatlve powers. A story that the

- regiment was to be disbanded. which

was published in a New London paper
recently. was promptly denied by the

thorlz‘ed a large expenditure for an

‘ armory at Norwich to accommodate
