At a recent meeting of citizens held
in East Norwalk, the following state-
111e11t, addressed to the legislature, was
adopted:
W‘c, the undersigned, voters and res-
idents Of East Norwalk, in the town Of
N orwalk, understanding that applica-
tion will be made to your Honorable
body by the city of South Norwalk, al-
so by the borough of Norwalk, to ex-
tend their respective corporate limits
so as to include East Norwalk within
the corporate limits of either said city
or borough, would most respectfully
looking to extending the corporate lim-
its of either said corporate municipali-
ties so as to ABSORB East Norwalk
where we reside. “78 would, however,
be willing (suitable provision being
made for 11111 protection against the
present indebtedness of both said mu-
nicipalities) that the bmough Of Nor-
walk and city of South Norwalk, and
East Norwalk be incorporated into one
city.

The popularity of the DAILY GA—
ZETTE has reached even unto Broad
River and the uttermost parts of the
earth. One Of Broad River’s enter-
prising school boys, Master George A.
Camstock, has undertaken to supply
the residents of this place with the
DAILY five days in the week, and the
WEEKLY and DAILY combined on Sat-
urdays. Next thing you know, Broad
River will want to consolidate with the
City of Norwalk, and have a post Office
of her own.
Collector Merrill of Broad River
School district, has been giving out a
nice lot of valentines, in the shape of
tax bills, to those liable to pay taxes in
said district. This is a special tax of
I3 mills on the dollar, laid last year, to
pay all the indebtedness of the district.
There has been considerable difficulty
in finding a suitable person to qualify
as collector. Mr. Merrill seems to
be the right man for the posit-ion. and
will notibe easily discouraged by such
little things as having the door shut in
his face, or the dog turned loose at
him. in the discharge of his duty.
B. F. NVebster, evangelist, was pres-
ent at the prayer meeting in Broad
River chapel last evening. Mr. Web~
ster’s appearance was a pleasant sur-
prise to many, he having gained hosts
of friends during his evanelistic Work
here last winter.

The original suggestion was that a

one of the niches of the capitol, but
the idea of an equestrian statue struck
the committee of G. A. R. men who
had taken the matter in hand as so
much better, that it II as decided to ask
