advantages under which it labors.”

A For Consolidation.
Hon. J. Bolden Hurlbult Presents
His Views on the consolidation
of ‘Norwalk, East Norwalk and
South Norwalk.
ED. GAZETTE—I see from various
articles in the papers and communica-
tions published, that there is a mis-
taken notion abroad about the wealth,
population, growth and general pros-
perity of the borough of Norwalk, and
the city of South Norwalk. It seems
to be the impression of some that the
city has increased in population and
wealth much faster than the borough,
which is erroneous, for I find that the
population of the city of South N orwalk
in 1880, was 3,720, and in 1800, about
4,500, a gain of only .800, while the
borough had in 1880, 5,308, and in 1890
over 0,300, a gain of 1,000. In 1834, the
reported debt of the city was $105,000,
with a, grand list of about $1,005,000,
and a tax rate of 0% mills.
The borough had at that time a debt
of $258,050, a grand list of $73,3li,000,
in round numbers, and a tax of ten
mills. In 188.), according to the returns
the city had increased its debt to $155,-
000, to which at present there should
be added a part of the cost of their
new reservoir, which will carry it up
to between $17 5, 000 and $200,000. It
had increased its grand list to $1,840,-
000, a gain of $101,000 in the grand list,
and over $70,000 in liabilities, and in
the meantime it had collected by the
way of assessments for sewers, quite a
number of thousands of dollars, over
and above its ten mill tax. In 1880,
the borough had increased its debt to
$440,000; its grand list to $3,400,000,
with its tax rate still of ten mills; it had
made no assessments for sewers, upon
which it had expended over $5150,-
000, and had built additional water
works. -
These figures of indebtedness, grand
list and taxation, appear from sworn
returns of the officers of the two mu-
nicipalities to the comptroller.
, _ thile theeity has increased in popu-
lation only 800 to the borough’s 1,000,
the increase of the city’s debt is two-
fifths of its increase of grand list;' the
borough’s increase of debt is only one-
sixth of its increase in grand list. The
borough has for its debt to. sewer sys-
tem complete, and as good as any in
the country, extending through the
largest part of the borough. Three
reservoirs with a supply of as good wa-
ter as can be found anywhere. A steam
engine, two hose companies, one hook
and ladder company, one engine com-
pany, a hose wagon, and other fire ac-
coutrements, all complete, with two
large brick houses, for engine, hose,
and other fire companies. I hardly
think that it will be claimed that the
city’s water supply is as good or plen-
tiful as that of the borough, even in
proportion to its cost. Removing this
erroneous impression, removes- to a.
certain degree the objection which is
urged by some to a consolidation, as
they term it, of the city, borough and
East Norwalk, for it is not attaching a
growing place to a dead one, as has
been urged. I go further than taking
the city and the borough and East
Norwalk into one city, and reach out
and make the entire township one city,
as a. matter of economy and good busi-
ness judgment. The present salary
list of the borough, city and town, as
returned to the comptroller, is abOut
$5,400. The whole governmental ex-
penses in the way of salary list of a city
comprising the entire town, need not
and would not exceed from $2,000 to
$2,500, which would leave of the money
now paid out for salaries, say $3,000,
which could be expended in improve-
ments, making the city attractive and
inviting.
I think I need not say, that a city of
18,000 people would be looked upon
with more favor, would have greater
influence and attract people to it as a
progressive place conducted in its mu-
nicipal affairs on sensible business
principles, than the same number of
people divided into three municipali-
ties, tw0 of which are within the third
one. The community of interest would
naturally stimulate enterprise and bus-
iness activity and promote the growth
of the whole city. To then locate a
factory or business enterprise, neither
the upper or lower part of the city,
would not be helping a rival, but ad-
vancing the entire community interest.
The jealous animosities and what seem
to me to be childish biekerings which
have characterized the two sections in
their treatment of each other would
necessarily cease. Citizens working in
South Norwalk and located in East
Norwalk, and in the borough of Nor-
walk, or outside of either place, would
be paying taxes upon their accumula-
tions _for the support of the community,
not merely where they live, but where
they work as well. South Norwalk to-
day gets no benefit of the accumula-
tions of those workmen that 111; e out-
side the city.
Now, the feeling which seems to con-
trol the action of the Sentinel, may be,
I think, very much likened unto the
Pharisee who said: “God, I thank
Thee that I am not as the rest of men,
extortioners, unjust, adulterers, or even
as this publican (the borough.) I fast -
twice in the week; I give tithes of all
that I get.” For it seems to want to
to be understood that they would treat
East Norwalk with extreme fairness
and as a beloved child; while the bor—
ough would be guilty of extortion and
would act unjustly to both. It forgets
that the borough and the upper por-
tion of the town and East Norwalk, so
far as town matters are concerned, is
one body. The first district has some
twenty-one hundred and odd voters, to
East Norwalk, say five hundred, and
yet East Norwalk has had the repres-
entative on the board of selectmen,
more than its proportion of time. The
borough had the power. had it desired
to exercise it, to refuse it every time.
The upper portion of the town had the
power to vote down the building of the
bridge, which gave the direct way from
East Norwalk to South Norwalk, yet
at a large cost, it was voted. and exists
to-day. The failure to carry into ef-
fect certain votes affecting East Nor—
walk’s interest, has been charged to the
borough by our good friends of the
Sentinel, who seem to forget that the
selectman at South Norwalk, and the
selectman at East Norwalk, could car-
ried them into effect at any time. and
now thedefeat of a free delivery from
South Norwalk. is attributed to the
people of the borough intermeddling
with South Norwalk’s affairs.
I may venture to say that no borough
man has, unasked, intermeddled with
South Norwalk afi‘airs. or East Nor—
walk’s afi'airs. South Norwalk pro-
poses and desires to accomplish that
which they would not’ submit to them-
selves, to wit, establishing a free de-
livery, and abolishing the post office in
the community. No one believes that
the borough of Norwalk, or the city of
South Norwalk., Would consent to have
a free delivery at the expense of the
loss of their post office, and East Nor—
walk ought not to be made a sacrifice
for the benefit of the South Norwalk
post office, when the same can be ac-
complished by delivery from the East
Norwalk office, and while these attacks
are being made upon the people the
borough of Norwalk, it might be well
to call the Sentinel’s attention to their
forbearance—for I find that N orwalk
came manfully to the assistance of the
Daily Sentinel, by contributing 100 ad-
vertisers among the short advertise-
ments on the first page of its paper, to
121 from South ,Norwalk, and most of
them feel that they ought not be mis-
represented.
The growth of East Norwalk has
been large, and promises to be larger,
and to be, in a few years, the most
populous part of the town. Let us
then adopt business principles in gov4
ernmental' affairs, and conduct our-
selves toward each other as one family,
rather than be constantly suggesting
that at some time one has done a wrong
to the other, {or has done something
which the other does not approve of.
By dividing the town of 18,000 into
wards of 1,500 each, thus making
twelve wards, we would have three
wards in the present city limits, two
wards at East Norwalk, one at Five
Mile River, Middle {Five Mile River,
and part of West Norwalk, four in the
Borough, one at Cranberry Plains, and
that portion of the town, and one in
the northwest. Electing a Councilman
from each ward, would give a. repre-
sentative in the government of the
city to each community, so that its in-
terests'would always be presented to
the governing body, and considered at
the time of any and all actions, by
which means all sections would be bet-
ter considered and better cared for.
Then giving to the several wards
power to make local improvements,
and to the city and Borough wards,
authority to meet their present
liabilities and obligations, and fixing
the expenses of the improvements up-
on the community benefitted. Every ad-
vantage now possessed by those living
within the present city limits would
then be possessed by them every ad-
vantage possessed by those living with-
in the borough limits, would thenb'e
possessed by them, and the outlying
portions would have all the advantages
of a city government, with authority
to make local improvements. No bur-
den need be cast upon one section for
the debts or improvements of the oth-
er, but each would bear its own bur-
den and only so much of the gen-
eral burden as it was equitable for it to
share. The power thus spread over the
entire town would prevent any section
having advantage over any other sec
tion. Yours truly,
J. BELDEN HURLBUTT.
