If it will else matters up a. bit between these two belligerent cities and make their task easier. we may admit that New Haven does not care a button if they both surpass her in population. Thus far New Haven has remained the largest community in the State. and has reached thlt condition without the employment of a single fish horn. We have on- ticed no one here under promise of tax exemption nor by the use of other tricks tried out in west- ern cities. We have no other explan- ation to offer tha nour well known brand of civic virtue and educational superiority.
