The oystermen had their innings in
the Common Pleas Court yesterday
afternoon during the hearing of the
State in the relation of Peter Doolan
against. the sloop Greyhound. owned by
Emma Sprague. of Bridgeport. City
Surveyor Starr and Captain Clark of
the Greyhound both testified that the
boat was not dredging on private
grounds on the day the authorities
used the arrest of the crew.
Attorneys i)el"orest if: Klein. repre-
senting the oystermen, claim that the
statute which provides for the condom.

unconstitutional. it is said that. a

without leave, but if the craft were
caught on private grounds, it would be
condemned by the court. and the own-
er would have n0legal dedress.
it is also claimed that the owners
of private oyster beds are negligent
about keeping the stakes which mark
the boundaries in place. The private
grounds are surrounded on all sides
by natural growth beds and the boun-
dary stakes are continually wandering
about so that it is difficult to tell when
a man is over the line which divides
the private and public grounds.

He declared that the survey made by

Commission was wrong by 20 to 60
feet on one side and 40 to 70 feet on

Politician George l.. Fox issues
Statement Regarding the Eu-
forcing oi the Corrupii‘racti-
cos Act in the Matter of Fil-
ing Election Expenses
NEW HAVEN. Nov. 17.—-George 1..
Fox. of this city. who has closely fol-
lowed the application of the corrupt
practices acts to Connecticut. politics,
today made the following statement.
”Three weeks ago i sent out. circu-
lars of inquiry to the town clerks of
list) towns of the state, which held
town elections on October 1. My ob-
ject. was to find how well the law re
quiring all candidates to file election
expenses had been complied with. One
hundred and thirty town clerks have
replied and the record is moat gratify-
ing to every citizen of law abiding
Connecticut. One Hundred and thirty
towns have reported and lid of these
have a perfect record. viz. .10 failure
as to file statements required. Those
towns where there was any serious de-
ficieucy can be counted on the fingers
of one hand. They are: Glastonbury.
Norwulk. Brooklyn and Branford.
When we consider that the number
of candidates varied from 28 to 74 in
different. towns, it must be acknowledg-
ed that this record cannot be equalled
by any state in the union. it. is much
better than that of Massachusetts.
where every year there are from 100
to 200 tieiiquents and no prosecutions.
it is interesting to note that of those
towns who last year prosecutions were
brought against for failure to file state-
ments. all this year are perfect in com-
pliance with the law. These towns are
Waterbury. Hannien. Newington, Crin-
ton. Bedding. There is the re-
cord b)’ counties:
in Hartford county, Avon, Bioma-
field, East Granby. East Windsor, Ens
field. Hartland, Marlborough. Rocky
Hill. Sinisbury, South Windsor failed
to report. All other towns save Grnn‘
by and Glastonbury where it deli-
quents were prosecuted. have a perfect
record.
in New Haven county. Bethany, Ma-
dison. Midiiiebury, Seymour. South
bury and Wolcoil failed to report. All
other towns have a. perfect record save
Woodbridge anti Brnnford. where tun
deliquents wore not reported.
in New Inndon County, Griswold.
Lisbon. Old Lyme und Preston failed
to report. All other towns have a per-
fect record save East, brine. Montvilie
and Salem. with an insignificant illllil-
her of deliuucnts.
in Fairiield county. New Canaan and
Westport failed to report. All other
towns have a perfect record. pin-opt
Nor-walk and Wilton. ”v
in Windham counly all towns have a
perfect record bill Putnam. Canterbury
and Brook] n with ten dcilquonis.
In Litch eid County. Cornwall, Gal-
heu. Kcnt, Norfolk, North Canaan, Sal-
isbury. Tori'ingtnn. Cannon and War-
run failed to report. All other towns

cord.
lost your some papers unjustly said
that. the town clerks, were conspiring
to defeat the law. On the contrary this
fine record is very largely due to their
faithful and painstaking efforts and
they deserve high praise.
