LAST CALL TO DUTY.
Monday will be the test of the
sentiment for tile new 'l‘own of
South Not'walk.
‘ Claims have been made tltat tlle
desire for independent local gov-
ernment has waned, and that divi-
sion is not desired. The vote
Monday will most emphatically
refute this statement. lll order to
make it the most effective, every
. voter in the territory included ill
the new town sltould vote the new
town ticket.
With the election Monday the
organization of the new town be-
I comes a fact, and the officers
elected will enter at once upon
1. their duties. There is no half-
way ground on wlticlt to stand.
The old town Republican organi-
i‘ zation has ignored the Second
District committee. and substitut-
ed the candidatcs of tile rump cau-
ctts for those of the cotnmittee.
All political lines are withdrawn,
and the New Tolvn ticket is com
posed of candidates from botll
parties.
The polls for the new town
election will be at Putnam l-lose
House, South Norvvalk, and Vol-
unteer llose House, East Nor—
:- walk. Polls open front 6 a. m..

New Town ticket.
SOUTH NORWALK REPUB-
LICANS IGNORED.
The Republicans of South Nor—
walk are expressing themselves
freely today, over the remarkable
action taken by the Republican
caucus of the First \v'otiug Uls-
trict, held it: Norwalk, last even-
ing, in refusing to favorably cott-
sider the nominations sent to
them by the chairman of the Re-
publican committee of the Second
.Voting District. Chairman G. S.
Kendall, of the Secoild District,
sent the following letter to Chair-
man Leonard, as a result Of'tile
Republican caucus having ne-
glected to nominate the candi-
dates apportioned to the Second
District:

,1 gally elected VHNIII
by Chairman Kendall, at the solic-
itation of some Republicans who
wanted to have a complete ticket
to vote at the old town election.
The action of the First District
caucus ill forcing candidates on
the Second District ill which they
have had no share ill nominating,
and which have no legal standing
on the ticket, entirely relieves the
members of the party front sup-
portingtlle same. The sentiment,
by the action of the Norwalk cau-
cus, means a more united front for
the New Town ticket.
VOTERS OF EAST NOR-
WALK, CONSIDER THE
FOLLOWING:
The. polling place for the voters
of East Norwalk, for the new
towtt, will be in the Volunteer
llose house, so called, ill East ave-
ntle. Vote early, before you go to
work ill the morning. You may
be detained later in the day, and
lose the chance.
Four hundred and twellty~tw0
of the voters of liast Not'walk
signed the petition for tile New
Town. Let every voter stand by
his name. We are an intelligent
class of people; we are not fools.
Don't flop at the last moment.
Uur interests are one with South
Norwalk. Ninety-five per cent. of
our people go there to work. We
are the overflow of the city. Let
us vote the New Town Ticket,
and be with them.
The men on the New Town
ticket are good representative
men: let us stand by them. Nev~
er before have we had such a
nunth front East Norwalk.
Don't forget, many of these per-
sons, residing in East Norwalk,
who are opposed to the New
Town are receiving pay front the
Town or City of Norwalk.
Remenlber‘that next Monday’s
election completes the organiza-
tion of the Town of South Nor-
walk, and on Tuesday it will be
our town. The officers elected
Monday will be tlte officers 'of
East Norwalk under any circum—
stances. Vote the New Town
ticket.
The warning for the first meet-
iltg of "the Town of South Nor-
walk" begins: “Whereas, the
General Assembly of, this state at
its January session, 1903, passed
an act incorporating the Town of
South Norwalk," etc. Of course

everybody knows that the act was

THE NEW TOWN OF SOUTH
NORWALK.
Next Monday the law incorpor-
ating the new Town of South Nor-
walk will take effect, and our new
government will be duly otganiz—
ed by the election of officers.
We are making historyI very
rapidly now. and those who have
played the part of Benedict Ar-
nold ill our struggle for independ-
etlce will ttot be forgotten. They
will live to despise theniselves
ll of it remains for the inhabitants
of the New ”'loult who have be—
lieved the if
their cause and who have con-
ilt righteousness
sistenfly labored to produce that
which they ltave believed to be de-
sirable and to be right to vindi-
cate themselves and the principles
to which they ltave given expres-
sion ill the coming electiOti of offi-
cials for the. Town of Soth Nor-
walk.
How is this vindication to be-
come an accomplished fact? The
answer is, let each and every elec-
tor within the New Town, with-
out rcgard to party lines, go to the
polling places of the New Town,
namely, the Putnam llose house,
ilt South Norwalk, and tlle‘Volun—
tcer Hose house in East Norwalk,
and there place himself upon rec-
ord by voting for the gentlemen
nominated to fill the new town
offices. It has been claiilted by
the opponents of the New Town
that many of those who signed
the division petition did so under
misrepresentation as to the facts,
did so without knowing what they
were doing, did so in absolute ig-
norance of the contents of the pe-
tition and of its purposel Elec-
tors of the New Town, is this
true? Are the allegations“ of your
opponents to be given credence
by reason of your conduct when
put to the test? Are you to be
tried and found wanting? If not,
your duty is plain. it is not to
vote early and often, as is often
said, but it is to vote early, and
to vote the ticket of one town on-
ly,-——and that the ticket or ballot
of the Town of South Notwalk.
Lest there be any hesitation be-
cause of party affiliations, it
that each and every candidate on
the Democratic and Republican
ballots of the New Town will be
elected. This desirlble end has
been accomplishedf,through the
united efforts of the town com-
mittees of the respective parties,
and their work in this direction
ltas received the hearty iindorsc-
meat of both parties as expressed
in their several caucuses. ‘ We say
desirable end, and we m‘can just
what we say, for harmony' to the
., New Town has been the ‘cnd, and m
harmony is always and at all
times desirable. It was for the
sake of harmonythat the great
should be distinctly understood ,
SOUTH NORWALK. CONN-9 SATURDAY,
true to yourselvesl Be true to
the sentiments expressed by you
in your petition foil division! Di-
vision and the licw Town of
South Norwalk is not a theory
but a fact. Remember this on
Monday, and roll up a big vote for
the officials of the new town. Be
consistent, and vote only one
town ticket, and that the ticket of
the Town of South Norwalk.

THE NOMINATIONS.
In The Sentinel of yesterday we
dwelt upon the duty. of polling a large
vote for the officers of the new town
of South Norwalk. 'i‘dday We call at-
tention to this duty igaln, not only
because it is one that cannot be too
strongly emphasized, but also for the
reason that the completion of the two
party tickets furnishes new matter for
illustration. By an arrangement made
by the party Inanugert. all the nonli-
noes will be elected. In looking over
the list of names, voters must be Inl-
pressed with the certainty that it In
one to make a strong appeal to the
electors of the new town.
III the first place they are, strong
men, fully‘eontpotout for the duties
they will be called on to assume. 'TII8
public interests at their bands will
suffer no detriment.
Again, they are representative men
of their respective parties, of their sev.
eral localities alld of the movement
that Is culminating In the new town.
The Issue has assumed definite form.
and the path of duty is plainly mark-
ed out. In view of the efforts and tac-
tics of the opposition, that duty be-
comes l'nore anti more urgent,- and
comes home In a personal way to those
who believe that this part of the old
town of Norwalk should exercise the
right and assume the responsibility of
managing Its own affaira, and have
worked for the past year with that end
in view, The conflict has passed on to
another stage, to the initial election'ln
the new town. We can do no icon than
to vote as we have shot, and each man
should not fail to do his part to swell
the vote to large proportions next Mon-
(lily.
The polls for the New Town
election for South Norlvalk will

Old Southport Postoffioe
Burned Down last Night
Building Wu Owned by WinthrOp H.
Perry, Formerly of Nor-walk, and
Uled aa a Store.
Southport had a hot blaze last
night, fire destroying the old post-
olflce building, owned by Attorney
Winthrop H. Perry. formerly of Nor-
walk. The building was the last one
on Water street, toward Greens Farms,
and the fact that wind was blowing
from the cult and away from the other
buildings. probably saved serious loss
In that direction.
On the tint floor the building was
occupied as a store house for paints
and oils by F. M. Roscoe, and on the.
second floor a similar stock was ear»
rled by Rufus P. Sherwood.
No one knows how the fire started.
but as the floors were soaked with oil.
the strucmre burned like a tinder box.
The loss is estimated at about 82.000,
and Is understood to be partially cov~
ered by insurance.
The Southport fire department did
excellent. work in getting the fire unr
der control and preventing the spread
of the flames.
The building was occupied for
many years by the poatolllce, the new
office being established during Cleve-
land's tirat term.
The issue Monday is officers for
the Town of South Norwalk.
Those elected then will or nize
the new government. Don t for-
get to vote the New Town ticket.
