A SHERIFF'S CRUEL JOKE.
(Camden Herald)
. 4 Sheriff Carleton and the county com-
. ‘1 missioners of Waldo county have put
4 up a cruel Joke on the winter boarders
4. in the Waldo county jail. For some
1 time the jail has been on. the prefor-
I'ed list in the hobo’s book—no work,
800d grub and warm—nut now all is
changed. Home isn't what is used to
« be, and the paradise has turned to
Something quite the opposite. Since
cold weather, tramps have been (10111-
ing‘ in from all parts of the county, 1m-
4 til about twenty of them have been
A enjoying themselves in luxurious idle-
ness at the expense of the taxpayers.
' 'I‘hecounty commissioners and the
sheriff hatched up 11 1111111 which, it is
_ ‘ believed, will somewhat effect the pol)-
‘ 1 ularlty of the place. For several days
‘ teams have been unloading wood, old
growth birch, with an occasional
streak of beach and maple, some of
the sticks two feet in diameter, and
3 most of it tough enough for ship tini-
hers and as hard to split as hickory-
A knots. The sheriff has fitted up a wall
1‘1 equipped, wood yard with plenty of
_ buck saws, axes and wedges, and from
now on it will be a case of clean,
healthy exercise for the county guests.
If they show indifference the tobacco
ration is to be cut oil—~11. ton cont cut
. a week, and the average hobo can-
‘. not get along without tobacco. The
woodplic idea is not so much a busi-
ness enterprise on the part of tile
county as to discourage the idea that
the Belfast jail is a winter resort for
4 the professional tramps, and it is be
'. lleved it will prove effectual.
IMPORTANT PUBLIC MATTER.
ln another column of The Sentinel
today is printed an interesting letter
trams. C. Palmer, regarding the os-
. “ tablishmcnt of a civic center, erection
of a city hall and other buildings.
‘ Home cxcellcut views are contained in
the article, and it should be carefully
read by every citizen of The Norwalks,
and a thorough consideration given to
the points brought out. Mr. Palmer
, asks that the various plans proposed
becarefuliy looked into before large
sums of money are voted '

M. E. O'Brien Calls Attention of At-
torney General .Bonaparto to At-
tempt Made In Baltimore to
Compcl F. 0. Fox to Join the
Confectioners’ Association.
WASlliNG’i‘ON, Feb. ”lib-A case
has been placedbcforc the attorney
general of the United States by At-
torney Matthew E. O’Brien. of Bridge-
port, for prosecution under the Sher»
man anti-trust law. The case grow
Ollt of an attempt on the partnf the
wholesale confectionery dcalcrs of
Baltimore to compel Ferdinand C. For,
a politician and merchant of Bridge
port, to join the Confectioners Asso-
elation of Baltimore.
Mr. Fox early this winter opened a
candy store in Baltimore. After stOck-
ing up his store he was advised 'by
the wholesale dealer from whom he
bought his goods that he had better
join the Baltimore Confectioners‘ Asv
societies, a branch of the national as-
sociation. Upon investigation he
found that he would be obliged to
sign an agreement not to underscll
others in the trade. and must post a
forfeit of‘ $250 to keep this agreement.
He promptly refuscd to join, and since
then has been unable to buy any
goods.
Mr. Fox will also sue. the national
association for damages. and if the
attorney general brings suit it will be
to dissolve the association for being
an organization in restraint of trade.
Census Bill Dead.
The census bill ls practically (load
for this session of congress. After a
careful canvass of the house, it was
found that there were not enough
votes to pass the bill over the Presi-
dent's veto. and the committee will
therefore not report the bill again this
session. it will be introduced again
at the extra session, and the civil ser-
vice figbt will have to be gone over
again. Congress will probably puss
the some bill again, but what Presi-
dent Taft will do is not known at this
time.
Old Connecticut Resident Dead.
Marvin Lincoln who formerly lived
in Willlmantlc, died at the home of
his daughter Mrs. Bernard R. Green,
in this city, yesterday afternoon, and
the body was sent today to Williman-
tic for burial. Mr. Lincoln was born
in North Windham in 1813. and his
death was due to old age. He was at
one time auditor of Maiden, Mass,
and spent most of his life ill Connec-
ticut and Massachusetts.

lowed. lunch enthusiasm was shown
on the part of some of the members
and some dissent voiced. Clearly. the
not unanimous 111 support of the pro-
ject. However, the committee didllb
root Chairman Raymond to appoint
three subcommittees of five members
ouch, one 011 finance, one on site and
one on building. These committees
were requested to investigate and re-
port to the general committee, which
was done a few evenings since. These
reports showed that the subcommit—
tees had “got busy” and done a deal
of painstaking work.
Nothing was done, however. by the
general committee, except to send up
lo the council for its considcratlon the
rcport of the finance committee. which
was a tentatlw1 petition to tho lcglsllv
illrl.1 for powers on the part of the city
to lake private property by condemns»
(ion. at any time, for any desired pro-
por public. work. and with the added
power to issue bonds of tho city to got
money to pay for the same.

As one member of the unintuitive. l
:1111 iii doubt and preposo having the
lllllt‘ to examine for myself. giving
woiglit only to ascertained facts and
opinions backed up by convincing ar-
guments, and i ask The Sentinel to
publish for the benefit of those who
cannot look for tllclllsclvos tho facts
as I shall find them. that they may be
tested by the closest, scrutiny. i shall
try to remain entirely opcnnllnlicd lo
lilo end of this exnlllllliliiou and dis
cussion. and any opinions i may form
will be based on all till1 ascertained
facts and related reasons.
This whole sciicml1 is so vast—~111-
volvlng as it does admittedly the ox-
peiidltllro of hundreds of thousands of
dollars for a beginningwtllat it fairly
claims the careful attention of all our
thoughtful citizens. it is but simple
justlcl1 to tllost1 citizens who advocate
lilo “civic confer” plan that they pro-
test they do not desire to force any
plan on an unwilling public. At. the
same time lllt-‘y proceed as though
they were irrevocably committed to
this "civic cooler" plan. that ill their
opiniOn there are no alternative pom
slblliilcs.
Certainly the chairman of tile (‘Ulil'

his associates in this attitude bofm'c
the 20 ulculbcrs of the committee of {.0
prosolli ut the second meeting. 1111 did
not present any written report but tho
splrlt‘of his vol-bill report was fair
and admirable to a degree that makes
me. feel sure that ho will be found
back of any measure accepted by a
great majority of the taxpayers of this
city as not too great a burden. that
seeks to make our city a IllOl‘t‘ coul-

it Is not possiblo to discuss this 1111111
ter fully in 11 ethnic paper. so i divide.
it into sections. as follows:
Section l—i’rcscnt existing condi-
tions.
Section 2—Conlllfious that. will be
found if the ”civic center“ is started
and a. city hall built.
Scction limllow will these condi-
tions affect the taxpayers and prop
crty values?
Section 4~(Il\'ic pride. What. is it:
what is its function and its proper
place?
Suction 5—\\'hat may

Section 1—Prescnt Conditions.
South Norwalk is a city 0f thc smal-
lest class. Population (estimated),
8. 000.

about 1,550.
Combined tax rules last year 0. 018:7.

Total city debt (less water debt),
$227,000. _
Amount we. can still go in debt. $59,-

Without any city hall expenditure
our tax rate is sure to rise rapidly.

sure we all want to pay for Again a
large town meeting voted lately, with-
out one vote against it, to build a new
drawbridge at the foot of Washington
street. It is said that this will cost
over $100, 000, perhaps $150, 000. Who
is prepared to say it will not? it is
to be hoped that the bridge committee
will vet find that the present. bridge
can be repaired. but that. will cost
seine thousands more of debt.
Surely with all these. tax burdens
crowding upon us, we ought as good
how much we really need a city hall.

love of fine things, which is so strong
in all Of’ us, to lead us into a debt
