Superintendent Winchester Declines to
Carry Out the Request
Actual open warfare has broken out
in the municipal electric department
of‘tho city of South Norwalk. follow-
ing on the heels of the test of a new
type of flaming are lumps on the high-
Waya in the center of‘the city.
Lined up on one side are Electrical
Commissioners Joseph A. Volk and
Thomas Richardson. and on the other
.1 former Commissioner Albert E. Win-l
cheater, superintendent of the munici-
pal plant. Tile third. commissioner.
Charles N. Smith is understood not
to be taklugau active part. In the con-
iroversy.
It has been an open secret right
along that Superintendent Winchester
has been opposed from the outset to
the type of lamp in question being as
tabllshed on the highways. but the
“last straw.” as it were, is the action
of the conunlssiouors in ordering Mr.
Winchester to discharge Trimmer
Frank A. Baker.
At a special meeting of the controls-
slonors. held Monday evening. it was
voted,.npon nrotlon of Mr. Yolk and
' seconded by Mr. Richardson. that Mr.
Baker be dismissed from the service.
The question was put. by Mr. Smith.
who. however; did not vote.

ically declared Mr. Winchester today.
“ Ivory one of those boys is faithful
and loyal. and i shall stand by every

to light this thing out."
‘ Mr. Winchester understood that the
commissioners' reason for discharging

"These lights," continues Mr. Win-
chester. l~‘al‘e excellent In tlrolr proper
place. but they are not. suitable for the
highway. For commercial purposes
they are all right. They ‘wili do nicely
in‘ a place like the train shed in Grand
Central depot or in it. public hall."
Mr. Winchester looks forward with
confidence to the outcome of the pres-
ent situation. and says he believes the
people of the city will bear him out In
the definite stand he lras taken.
The new lamps. on account of the
uusatisfacforluesa of the beat. have
been very unfavorably commented on
by the public. strictly on account of
their being out so nruch of the time.
Frank E. Parker has uniquely sized
them up. He says: “The man who
invented those lamps must have stut-
tcred."
This expresslounwas drawn forth by
their jerky method of burning part of
the tlmc.‘ The test has been discou-
tinned for the present. Regarding this
Mr. Richardson says:
"Owing‘to the fuel that two of the
new flaming arc lamps are damaged.
If. his devolved
. the electrical coullllissloncrs have de-
clded not to carry on the test for the
present. but' to wait until . four new
lamps can be stripped from Pittstield.
These new laums will be equipped
‘ with compensating resistances. which
provide against all four lamps going
out together. in case one gets out. of
order,- thus making them frilly as re.
liable as. the regular street are lamps."
The type of lamp over the the trou-
. bio has arisen give forth a dull red-
dish light as against the white light

“in some respects the governor is
right and in some he is not.” Under
the present conditions the little fellow
pays a nrucll larger rate of taxation
on his grounds than the big ones do.

$1 an acre. 1 want right to headquar-

“Under present conditions the big

not developed and pay only a nominal
assessment on it. If the state got af-
ter them and did not allow them to
hold so much of the oyster ground ulr
der those. conditions it would be a
great deal better."

The message of the governor con.

the oyster dealers here, as throughout

ed that should the legislature follow
out the recmnmendatlona of the former

from the growers. They continue to
assert. that the governor must have
been misinformed as to conditions and

Pile oi Unsiglrtly and Unhealthy
Oyster Shells Ought to Follow
the Saloons
t - , - January r2. 1509.
Editor of The Sentinel: ’
Dear 'Slrz—‘it is told us that all
things come to him who waits. but. I
wonder if this trite saying can be ink.
on as applying to the public? it the
answer is yet. i would like to know
how much longer this patient public
will be obliged to Wait for a remedy
for that intolerable condition created
and maintained on the Washington
street bridge by: the Radcl Oyster
Company?
Now that the county commissioners
have declared for abolishing the sa
icons oil the bridge by refusing to
grant applications for licenses. why
not make the Job a complete one, and
rout the oyster pile nuisance. .thoh
la the opinion of many is as bad as the
sultxms-1n the opinion of those who
have no particular love for the saloons.
worse.
in summer the stench from the place
is disgusting and nauseating, and now
it is not safe to pass the place. or why
the supports that have been erected tr
brace up the pile? . _
An oyster opening plant In its prop»
or place calls for no comment What
ever. but. that proper place is not in
this one’s present location. To illus-
trntc, no one has any complaint con~
coming the. numerous establishments
in lower Water street, and which are
in better positions for the business it-
self. , -
mesa Norwalk, one if not the fastest
growing sections of the town. and es‘
sentlally a district of homes. used the
bridge almost exclusively to get any-
where. and why should lie 4.000 poo .
pie be obliged to put up with the aforo
described nuisance? Why. for instance,
should. that pile of shells be tolerated
there. any more than it would, be at.
some point along Washintgon street
between Water street and the railroad
bridge?
Understand me. i have no word of
complaint against the oyster opening
plant. itself. The industry is great and
important. but there is no Justice in
pursuing a worthy. enterprise in such
a. manner that it is a public nuisance.
With the. hope that the city council
will appoint a," committee to examine
into the matter. i‘am ‘
