Today the whole town is iii the
grasp of more than 200 of its prettiest
and most Winsome girls and young
women. ’who are riding the pockets of
Its citizens, old and young. for the ben-
efit of the Norwalk Hospital.

Opinions may differ “as to whether
the Norwalk Hospital is a charitable
institution or whether there should be
a drastic upheaval in its methods of
conduct, but this does not worry the
charming members of the fair sex. who
are nothing less than wonders in per-
forming the operation of separating
their victims from cash for the hospi-
tal's benefit. '

. And it is no wonder that the girls
are successful. How any one can re-

vslst their winning appeals is a com-

plete mystery, for no place in the
country can produce an array of fem
ginlne loveliness more charming than
The Norwalks. The beauty of Nor-
walk’s girls is famed for and near, and

Justly.

If it is possible. the costumes of the
young women in today's campaign
lends further charm to their attrac-
tiveness. Each “is attired in white;
with a white nurse’s cap, and a red
'cross on the arm. Owing to the chilli-
uees of the weather, many are wearing
red sweaters or red and white sweat-
ers, and each is provided with an al-
ga? endless supply of small red

" 'ses, bearing the words. in gold

letters, “Nortalk Hospital.” Strings
are attached to the crosses and each
contributor who places a sum of money
in the red collection boxes, is handed
one of the crosses. Some of the con-
tributors experience the pleasure of
having the fair collectors attach the
crosses to their coat Iapels. Of course.
the young men are favored in this
case.

Charles Slavin, a South Norwalk
young man, claims the honor of having
received the first red cross. He drove
the ambulance to the hospital with a
patient at 11 o'clock last night and re‘
ceived the cross for a contribution
which he presented to a young nurse.
The small army of young ladies really

' started their big campaign. however.

at 6 o'clock this morning. when they
took possession of every street cornei
in the business section of, The Nor-
Walks and outside the radius. under
a chaperon, and proceeded to get busy.
The trolley cars carry them free and
they hop on. go through the passen-
gers. hop Off, and go along to con-
quer fields new. all of the time adding
to their increasing supply of money.
Some of the most enterprising of the
girls went up to front doors between
6 and 7 o'clock, rang door bells, and
got contributions before some people's
rising time. The railroad trains are
also receiving plenty of attention and
there are plenty of girls about the de
pets to see that no passenger with a
willingness to contribute is raised.
When the local trains come in at the
South Norwalk depot, the girls. heard
them, go through each car and alight
at Rnwayton at the west and East Nor
walk at the East. They return on the
next local train, repeating the. “hold—
up" operation.

Then. too, there is the automobile
delegation, which Is playing an impor-
tant part; A number of owners of mo-
tor cars have donated their use for the
day and take the girls to any point
where contributions ‘may be secured.

The machines are distinguished by
white flags bearing red crosses. By 8
o'clock. this morning. 20,000 of the lit-
.tls red crosses had been given out.

Some contributors to the fund are
evidently getting a collection of the
little red crosses. It is no unusual
sight to see a man with half a dozen
in his possession.

Believes Mr. Light Drew the‘ Ordin-
ance Under Which Street Com-

missioner is Appointed

 

Editor of The Sentinel:
Permitlme to say a few words in re-
ply to the charges made against me

by John H. Light at the Republican
caucus Wednesday night. I ask this
permission because not being an ora-
tor llke Mr. Light and having a poor
voice besides. I felt I could not do
justice to my friends or thyself in a
public speech.

Concerning my 'appoiutineni as
Street Commissioner by the City Coun-
oil I have this to say: In 1891 an or-
dinance was passed Siving the Council
power to appoint a Street Commission-
er and to fix his salary. This ordi-
nance says nothing as to'whether the
Street Commissioner shall be a mem-
ber of the Count: or not. and if I am
not mistaken Mr. Light drew this or-
dinance himself.

When Mr. Light. was corporation
counsel, Mr. Scofleld, a member of the
City Council, was chosen assessor.
Why didn't Mr. Light object. to Mr.
Scotleld serving as assessor?

Mr. Light. has held down a. number
of jobs himself at the same flute in his
day and drew pay from them all. but
In my case there was only one salary
and that was less than what it cost
last year for the some work. My sal-'
lary is $750 while my predecessor got
8936. t

l have devoted my whole time to my
office and have laid over three miles
of sidewalk and have contracts for
more. This is more than was ever
done before in a year. I have built:
roads so far as the money approprlat.
ed would permit. I think it is fair to
say that the general condition of the
streets is better now titan ever before.

As to the. collecilon of garbage froth
backyards. Mr, Light and everybody
else knows that this arrangement was
started years ago by Dr. Kendall.
Those who were willing to pay for it.
could have their garbage collected
from the backyard. At first I tried to
change this arrangement and rescind
ed the orders but for fear of law suits
against the city on the contracts which
had been made with Dr. Kendall, the
plan was continued and all money re-
ceived from It was turned into the
Health Department.

Mr. Light says with much vehe-
mence that I have not been a good citi-
zen while in ofllee. Mr. Light's idea
of mgood citizen Is one who votes for
hindsight. ‘ms' idea of a good Repub-
.ican is one who obeys the dictation .of
Mr. Light..but the Republicans of this
city have grown weary of Mr. Light's
one-man rule. His principal service to
the Republican party has been to hold
all of the offices he could possibly get.

As to the nomination of Mr. Bogar-
dus and myself on the Democratic
ticket it may be considered.” a rec-
ognition of efficient public service/Poe
Republicans did the saute for Judge
Gregory. a Democrat. and no doubt
will do so again.

In conclusion 1 would any that I
have tried to fill a difficult position
for the best interests of the city as a
whole. and hollow l have done so.
if re-eleeted I shall continue to (lo the
same.

it] Hi lllllil’illllilll lili-
iilS ill SfllllH llilllWilli

At the city caucus of the Democratic
party held last Wednesday night, a
ticket was nominated that should ap-

peal to every voter of the city. From
top to bottom it was sought to put
on menthat would serve the best in—
terests of the city. The ticket is com-
posed almost exclusively of taxpayers.
which is a guarantee that the city‘s
income will be well spent. A non-par-
tisan council was nominated. two Re-
‘iubllcan members of the present coun-
cil being put. on the ticket because
they have served on the first council
in years which has not exceeded its
appropriation. Daniel Dunlop. the
street commi in the council. has
done most efllc out work in the matters
of streets, sidewalks and sewers, and
in the collection of garbage. and
George W. Bogardus, who was endors-
ed by the Democrats last year. was
again put on the ticket, on account of
his capable work as chairman of the
tire committee.

Not a candidate of the ticket is un-
der corporate. ring or machine control
or influence and should it be the wish
of the citizens that they be placed in
charge of the city affairs for the com-
ing year, not one of them is pledged
to anything but a clean, economical
administration of the city's business,
and on this platform. we appeal on
behalf of the candidates for the sup
port of the independent voters of the

city.

Claim Made That Prohibition Laws
Are Not Enlorced in Other Places

Norwalk, Oct. 2. iiiOB.
Editor of The Sentinel:

As a business man and tax—payer in
this town. I am Inteusely interested In
the Issue, which is to be decided on
Monday next. license or tie-license. I
have watched this experiment of pro-
hibition for many years. as the same
has been tried, mostly by the English

speaking people. throughout the world,
and as my business is my sole source
of livelihood. l. in defence of that busi»
ness. venture to ask a bearing through
the columns of your paper.

First. take the. proposition as a busi-
ness matter. pure and simple. The.
town of Norwalk has an indebtedness
of about $600,000. AI. 4% per cent..
(which you will now pay for many
years), the interest on this sum
amounts to, $27,000. Our tax list. ac.-
cordlng to the last. report of the town
treasurer. produced about $115,000. out
of which about. $70,000 goes to the sup
port of our schools. In addition to
this. we received from the county com—
missioners, for license money, be-
tween 825.000 and 326,000. or practi-
cally an amount. sufficient to pay the
interest on our indebtedness. We have
a nine mill tax, which as i said. raised
about $116,000. So you see. by‘relin-
quishing the license money, you would
havo to Increase your tax rate. practi-
cally two mills; and this at a period
of financial depressionllkt- the pres-
ent, which. I am sorry to say. will. I
believe. continue for some time. and
isotoniymind a very serious bruins-at
preposition.

It is apparent to every thinking Inn“
in the community, that we must raise
more. money titan we have. hitherto had
to put our made In proper condition.
and this fact together with the“ addi-
tional expenses incurred by the build
ing of the high school, is a weighty
argument to let Well enough alone.

But. there is another side to the
question. and that is. if you lay aside
all business consideration and ap-
proach it from a purely sentimental
standpoint, do you by prohibition in
a town like Nor-walk. accomplish the
purpose for which the law was insti—
tuted? What is prohibition In truth?
Is It not the prevention of the doing
of an act which a person desires to
do, and would do Were, it. not for that
prevention?

Prohibition to successful in many
places. For instance, It may be said
to be successful in the town of Wil-
ton. or in Weston, or in any town
where a great majority of its inhabi-
tants do not want to ‘use liquor, but I
venture. this assertion. that in the
whole history of the movement. in any
part of the known wdrld, It has never
been successful in ' a locality where
a large minority of the. inhabitants de~
sire to use liquor, and it is this unl-
versally admitted fact, which makes
the tremendous power. which is wield-
ed by the officers of the law. in their
relations to this traffic. so dangerous,
and so susceptible to abuse. as is seen
in the cities of our country and fur-
nishes such opporutnlty for dishonesty
and graft.‘

The natural desire of a man
drinks, to have his dri k. when he.
wants it, irrespective 0 what some
one else says or thinks. because he
can see no moral wrong in so Obtain~
ing it. is the true cause of the conflict.

Convince the ordinary man of the.
immorality of the act, and I am glad
that It is being done, quite extensively,
particularly in New England, and you
end the conflict, so far as he is con-
cerned, but you can never convince a
reluctant mind by brute force. ‘

But this is only argument, after all.
We business men of Norwalk. howev-
er, have had a concrete example of
the workings of the prohibition law in
this town. Thirty years ago. public
sentiment was aroused by a ‘series of
revival meetings. extending over it
period of two years. and the town was
carried for nonsense. and you busi-
ness men, who were here at that time,
all know that the effect of that vote
was disastrous to the morals as well
as the business interests of this com-
munity; and If you want another con-
crete example of it, go to any disin-
terested‘business man in the town of
New Canaan today. and he will tell
you. as I have been told by them, that
during the past year there has been
as much, if‘not more, drunkenness in
New Canaan than there was the year
before, snd‘ln addition, a systematic
deceit, lying and wilful violation of
the law, which did not exist before.

Every honest man admits that the
use Of alcoholic liquors as a beverage
is a detriment to all Inga. and when
used to noun. a curse: and yet that
same honest man must admit that in a
community such as this. composed as
it now is of so many different nation-
alities. different religions. different

Loss cl About $175,000

BOSTON. Oct. 3.———Cresthall and
Ocean View Hotels, with three large

summer summer cottages, occupying
one of the most beautiful spots on
"The Crest" it Winthrop Bench, were
totally dest yed by fire, early today,
with a loss estimated at about $175.-
000.

Cresthall was owned by Fred Hail.
and cost $75,000 when built. seven
years ago. The Ocean View loss is
placed at $30,000. Mrs. I. B. O'Brien
was tile owner. Fifty guests at Crest-
hall and 30 at the Ocean View escap-
ed, and some front the Ocean View
were unable to save part of their ef-
fects. The. cottages Were owned by
M. H. Powers, of Hyde Park, and b)'
the George Mlllhnnk estate and Wai-
ter Ilnpnes, of Revote. Powers‘ loss
was $9,000; the Millbank estate's $8,-
000‘ and Haynes' 820.000.

The fire started at midnight In the
kitchen of Cresthnll. A strung north-
east wind swept the flames directly
down the beach, and only the timely
arrival of aid from Boston, Chelsea
and Revere, it is believed, saved a
large part of the valuable ocean front
from destruction.

Not a Town in the Slate Situated
as Norwalk ls Has School

Consolidation

To thelddltor of the Evening Sentinel:

Next Monday at the town election
our electors will be called upon to
vote for or against “Consolidation of'
School Districts."

I wonder how many fully understand
the consequences which would loslcal'
ly follow the abolition of all of our
school districts? Every voter who Is

not fully satisfied in his own mind
that such radical change would oper-
ate to improve our school system
should vote against the change. There
is not a town in the state with two
cities within its boundaries which has
consolidated its school districts. It
must. be remembered that our political
conditions are unique. We have two
city governments and all the business
of the town is transacted in the town
meeting held in the City of Norwalk.
and in case of consolidation, the busi-
ness relating to the. schools would be
transacted in the sum. place. Out of
this condition has grown the sentiment
for a division of the town; and now
to bring the government of our schools
under the same conditions would not,
in my judgment, tent to lessen section-
al feeling. Personally. I should like
to allay all such feeling. and for that
reason, among others, I believe it' is
wise to vote against consolidation of
our school districts. I have yet to
discover any demand from the people
for such consolidation.

The present agitation originated
with the Town School Board. and not
one of the districts has expressed a de-
sire to have its government abolished.
It is good to keep the government of
our schools near the people. and our
district system serves that purpose ad.
mirably: and concededly somoof the
best schools in the state are conduct.
ed under the district system, notably
the schools of the City of Hartford. It
is not. necessary to abolish the school
districts in order to have consolidated
management, for under the law of the
state, the town may direct the School
Board to employ all the teachers. and
the School Board may engage a super-
intendent. for the whole town,

See Sections 2166 and 2177 of the
General Statutes.

The South Norwalk Union School
District is practically co-termlnous
with the CityofSouth Norwalk. sad
for one. i do not care to turn over the
business affairs of this district to the
town meeting to be held in the City
of Norwalk; but this is not my only
objection by any means. It is claim-
ed that the consolidated management
would be more efficient and less ex.
pensive. I dispute this. At'tho pres-
ent time no salaries are paid for the
care and management of the. proper-
ties of the school districts, but under
consolidation some one would receive
a salary, and properly so, for the care
of these properties. »

I trust that every elector will vote
against consolidating the school dib
trlcts.

Ballots may be found at the polls.
Those in favor of consolidation shall
deposit in short provided for that pur-
pose a bullet with the words “Consoli-
dation of School Districts Yes" written
or printed thereon, and those opposed
shall deposit a ballot with the words
“Consolidation of School Districts No”
written or printed thereon. -

Yours truly.
