As a-large number of GAZETTE read- ers have the mistaken idea that it is necessary to bring six coupons of con- secutive dates before they can obtain a A portfolio of “The World and Its Peo- ple by Sunlight,” we have concluded to changet‘ne number of coupons to one. Anyone desiring a “portfolio can now obtain it by presenting one coupon and ten cents at the business Office of the GAZETTE. Eighteen numbers have been issued and back numbers can be supplied. Order Her Out. A citizen and tax-payer of Norwalk called at the GAZETTE office this morn- ing and complained that the notorious Annie Mead, who has but recently been liberated from Bridgeport jail, was again running a resort at the rear Of Kehoe’s grocery in East Norwalk. He states that several well-known and highly respected young men have lately been inveigled into going to this place, and that liquor is being sold by the Mead woman. He also made the state- ment that several business men we‘rcin the habit of going there and indulging in bacchanalian revelries, and that the woman had about ruined one young man who had been lured to her resort. If the statements Of this citizen are true—and he offers to give the names of the frequenters of the Mead house if nwessary—itistime that the anther- ities took some3notice of the matter. In regard to the sale of liquor reported at this place, Prosecuting Agent Hon- necker is the one to take action. He can without difficulty ascertain the source Of supply and at once stop this part of the diagram. , As the house' is‘located in East» Nor- walk it is out of the jurisdiction of both the Norwalk and SOuth Norwalk police, and if action is taken, as it ., should be, and at once, the town auth- ‘thorities will have to take the matter in hand. - ‘ This Mead woman has been the cause Of considerable trouble in Norwalk and has been driven from one part of the town to another and it is about time that she is brought up and or dared to leave. - —_———“.>—__ The income Tax. . If an income tax were an absolute imperative necessity of our financial situation; if we were in such a dire strait that we had no other means to defray expenses and meet obligations, the Democratic party, as a last resort, might levy such a tax as a temporary expedient. says the Washington Post. But such action would be undertaken with great reluctance, and the Congress undertaking it would do soapologeti- cally, explaining to the country the ne- cessity for so serious a departure from the Democratic creed. Neither Of the two great parties in the last campaign gave any intimation to the country that such a tax was dreamed Of in the list Of possibilities. If an income tax plank had been sub- mitit d to the Democratic national con- vention by the committee on resolu- tions, no one doubts that it would have been hootcd out and voted down. The Populist party and the Social Labor party casting but 1,051,662 votes out of a total of 12,102,850, supported an in- come tax proposition. Without any compulsion from necessity, without any Visible excuse, the Democracy in Con. gress accepts the instruction of a small minority and attempts to plant this Odi; ous graft from the Populist and Social" Labor creeds into our system of na- tional taxation. . N ct only is it un-Democratic, but it is quite as sectional as anything at- tempted by any Republican Congress in recent years. It is most offensively inquisitorial, and it is class legislation, laying a penalty on thrift and giving a premium to improvidence. Demo- cratic Senators have declared that its enactment will be fatal to their party. Democratic journals of the highest chaigacter vehemently denounce it. ' The leading independent papers, which Supported Mr. Cleveland in 1892, cry out against it. But the flat appears to have gone forth‘that it must be adopted, and Senators who have led the way in denOuncing it are reported as getting ready to gulp down the nauseous dose. ’9'- ' Help thé’lel-ary. _. , Notwithstanding the prevailing hard times, or perhaps, because. Ofwtl-lemv‘" .there have been more entertainments for local charities this spring than for months before, and now it' is the Nor- walk 'Library which makes its bow to i ' attain every . , , .1 \--—~—r—_~—-—“~-‘"*—‘ " ‘r—f‘. *1“ arm-n what‘s-gt valuable-educative influence for our - young people‘f’wé' must do the best we can. have as small a Sum for subscrip- tion, and as many good books as possi- ble. For three years past, The Girls’ Literary Club, T. G. L. 0., as they call themselves, have helped very liberally to keep our library in funds. The Club has had this definite object in view, and when we consider that at the time of their first entertainment the young girls were none of them more than "thirteen years old, it is certain that we must admire their spirit and courage. ’ Their first venture, a play in a barn, and a lawn party brought the library .nearly a hundred dollars, and each year their contribution has increased. They are now making a little more am- bitious effort. With the assistance and advice of the Officers Of the Norwalk Library Association, and with the will- ing aid of the S. S. club, they have taken‘the Norwalk Opera House for the evening of the 12th of June, and will give two plays, and one or two solo dances, with orchestral accompaniment. Tickets have been issued for this en- tertainment and can be procured of the members of the T. G. LC. and S. S. club, or at Gregory’s uptown and Plais- ted’s, South Norwalk. As the young ladies and gentlemen have worked very hard to make this entertainment a success, and in- view of the fact that the tickets have been placed at the low price of 50 cents, it is hoped that everyone will assist in making the N orwalk Library benefit a substantial one.
