August 30. 1909. To tlie Editor of The Sentinel: No truer statement could be made than that which appeared edditorislly on Saturday, to the effect that South Norwalii's splendid municipal electric light plant “is an enterprise in which the city is deeply interested and has long been proud of." "an institution which has been built to a high state of efliciency by most painstakiuf and laborious effort." Nor is it less true. though most re- gretabie, that during the past year or so. an improper influence has some- how worked its way into the vitala of this institution, to such an extent that its long splendid record or success is endangered. Why is this’.‘ Simply - because the average citizen has por- hapu been slow to his duty. We have sat too long tranquilly listening to the mutteringa of retmgreasive discord from within the electric light board, until they have developed into a cor- rupting “rankiing sore." when we should have sought the cause and ap- plied the remedy. For over 15 years. or until Mr. llich» ardson became a member of the light board. all was well with our electric light plant. 'i‘heii trouble begun. which seems to have been a. succession of disagreements. a iparently due to a new influence in t is board. directed to hamper Superintendent Winchester iii the continuance of the methods of op- eration under which the plant bus ut- islned its high record of success and general satisfaction to the people. Now. then. the question is. Have not the pre vious members of the light board and Mr. Winchester proved themselves competent by bringing the plant up from nothing, in the midst of great opposition and doubts among us cltl’ sens. to its present high standing? its splendid results concern us most. and they unmistakably say yes. 80 then. of what need was there for a new and in- experienced commissioner to feel call. ed upon to take up the burden of res forming where no reform was neces- sary. and insisting upon his courau of stirring up strife in the plant. rather than directing his energies toward helping to continue the good work so long wcll started? lliis Mr. Richard son, by trying to blackcn tlic reputa~ tlon of Mr. Winchester in The Senti- nel. some months ago. and recently by tryliig to discharge him as superin- tendent aftcr over 17 years of faithful service to the city. proved himself the kind of coiniiilssioner we need? Per haps Mr. Richardson had longings for the superintendent's position: lint ill be blamed if the average citigcn thinks that he has gone about getting it in a creditable way. it is too true the. amine citizen has been a little mite negligent. and he hopes he hasn't. sat up and taken notice too late. But he is thinking now and. to quote some more from the flue editorial. “thinking citizens of the city realize that the situation is now approaching a point where it is up to them to do something to relieve the tension and take a step that will re- sult In the return of peace and quiet- ness in the affairs ol this much appre- ciated public utility." Perhaps the best immediate start toward remedying the conditions at the electric light plant. can be mndr this afternoon at the city polls. by vot- ing Yes for the adoption of the amends ed city charter. which will not only give back to the people their former right to make known by ballot their own choice of electric light commis- sioners, but will give them voice in more details of handling the city gov- ernment. thantiiey have had for many years, also improve the functions of the board of apportionment and taxa tics. and in a word. place the city on 2- much better deflned and more. husl nessllkc footing than it has been abh- to enjoy heretofore. Let the Yes ballots tell that you be- lieve that the~people. not politics. not parties, not bosses should rule-lust the plain, honest. patriotic people. Yours truly. AVERAGE Cl’l‘iZEN. LOOKING FOR WATER LEAKO. South Nomik Commissioners still Believe There is a Great Wastaga. The employee of the South Norwaik water department have been occu- pied the past few nights in an effort tolocate further leaks in the water system. Particular attention has been given to the hill section. where the water pressure has been low. and as a result of frequent tests with me- ters. shutting off and turning on the water. The sediment in the pipes has been stirred up and has caused the wa- ter in. some plsossm to be full 0! dirt as it leaves thassrvios pipes.
