FOR CONS OLIDA T1 ON.

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 SouthNorwalk
in 1830, was 3,720. and in 1890. about
4.500, a gain of only 830, while the
borough had in 1830. 5,308. and in 1890
over 6.300. a gain of 1,000. In 1834, the
reported debt of the city was 8105.000,
with a grand list of about $1,065,000.
and a tax rate of 8% mills.

The borough had at that time a debt
of $38,650, a grand list of $2,347,000,
in round numbers, and a tax of ten
mills. In 1889. 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 $175,000 and $300000. It
had increased its grand list to 31.840,-
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 1889,
the borough had increased its debt to
$440,000; its grand list to $53,400,000,
with its tax rate still of ten mills; it had
made no‘assessments for sewers. upon

which it had expended over $150,-
000, and had built additional water
works.

These figures of indebtedness, grand
list and taxation, appear from sworn
returns of the ofiicers of the two mu-
nicipalities to the comptroller.

Whilethe city has increased in pOpu-
hation 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 a 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 housL 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
beenurged. 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, two 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 bickerings 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 N orwalk to-
day gets no benefit of the accumula:
tions of those workmen that liy 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
Theo that I am not as the rest . of men,
cxtortioners, 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 0d voters, to.

 

iEast Norwalk, say five hundred, and

HM stock as widely as possible among

 

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 the. defeat of a free delivery from
South Norwalk. is attributed to the
people of the borough intermeddling
with South Norwalk’s afl'airs.

I may venture to say that no borough
man has. unasked, intermeddled with
South Norwalk affairs, or East Nor-
walk’s affairs. 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 oilice in
the community. No one believes that
the borough of Norwalk, or the city of
South N orwalk, would consent to have
a free delivery at the expense of the
loss of their post otlice, and East Nor-
walk ought not to be made a sacrifice
for the benefit of the South Norwalk
post ofliCe. 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 Norwalk
came manfully to the assistance of the
Daily Sentinel, by contributing 106 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 gov-
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. Everyad-
vantage now possessed by those living
within the present city limits would
then he possessed by them every ad-
vantage possessed by those living with-
in the borough limits, would then be
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.

Illegal Liquor Selling.

Hanover, N. H., Jan. 28.—~A man of
50 sentenced to sixty-three years’ im-
prisonment for liquor selling, being
convicted on 723 out of 1,000 indict-
ments! That sounds like the law of
some other country than this, but it
is what has happened to G. F. Kibling,
a citizen of Norwich, Vt., a little ham-
let just across the river from this old
college town, the seat of Dartmouth
College. Every college graduate for
the last 20 years, at least, knows“Kib.”
For a decade or so he has defied the
law and has supplied the ardent, more
or'less surreptiously, to all the students
who chose to call on him.

' New Theatre.
Waterbury, Jan. 28,—Steps are
being taken in this city to make the
new theatre project a reality. A stock
company will be formed with promi:
nent business men and capitalists of the
city, and some from New York and
Philadelphia. The plan is to distribute

 

the people, so'g'fisto make the interest
general, after the manner in which the.
stock of the Norwich Opera House was
sold. . ; .3. .

Next to getting married, probably
the most important duty the ordinary
.man has to perform in a lifetime is to
run for a bottle .of Dr. Bull’s Cough
Syrup when the baby has the croup.

 

.EAST NORW'ALK POST OI'FIUE, '
The GAZETTE had no idea that its
playful allusion to the Sentinel’s hys—
terics would cause that harmless but
exhausting affliction to develop into a
series of grotesque and frantic convul-
sions. Our article on the East Nor-
walk post-office case seems to have hit 1
our esteemed contemporary in a. very
tender spot, judging from its contor-
tions, which simply confirm, in the
eyes of the public, the suspicion that
the Sentinel’s tactics are in the line of
creating and fostering a bitter sectional
prejudice, no matter what may be the
means employed. so that the 'end is at-
tained. With its childish personalities
we have no time nor disposition to
deal. The main question is the one of
justice to East Norwalk in the post-
office matter, and the facts are as ,
stated in the GAZETTE of Friday. and :
neither newspaper rcpetitions nor 1
newspaper quibblings will change the
aspect of the situation. The Sentinel’s l
three columns of nonsense amount to
nothing against the facts as they stand,
which are, that the peeple of East Nor-
walk do not want their post office taken
from them and its revenue transferred
and their convenience subordinated to
South Nor-walk ; the 390 signers of the
petition for its abolishment include
many women who signed their hus-
bands’ names without the authority or
knowledge of the latter, and does not

 

represent the sentiment of the majority: -'

the notice to the DAILY GAZETTE from
W’ashington, upon which the Sentinel
lays so much stress, stating that no
change would be made, was sent the day
before the editor of the GAZETTE left
Norwalk for \Vashington. Further-
more, the item published in the Senti-
nel of the 17th, announcing that orders
had been given for the discontinuance
of the East Norwalk post office, was
disclaimed by the post office authori-
ties in Washington, in a letter to a cer-
tain partyin East Norwalk, who clipped
the item from the paper and enclosed
it in a note of inquiry to the Third As-
sistant Postmaster General. Follow-
ing is that oflicial’s reply:

“Sirz—Yours of the 17th received.
The article referred to by you was pub-
lished without any authority from this
ofilce. There is no intention of discon-
tinuing your post office or establishing
the free delivery service in East N or-
walk on the 1st of Feburary, nor has
any one been authorized to say so."

Bainbridge \Vadleigh, ex-United
States Senator from New Hampshire.
and one of the best known lawyers in
the Granite State, died in Boston Sat-
urday at the age of 60 years. He was
one of the early anti-slavery men. He
identified himself with the republican
party at its inception. In 1855, . en
2-1 years old, he was elected to the
State Legislature from Milford, and
served in that body in that and in the
following year, and again in 1859, 1860,
1869, 1870, 1871, and 1872. During his
last four years in the State Legislature
he was the acknowledged leader in de-
bate and in influence.

In 1872 Mr. W'adleigh was chosen
United States Senator from New
Hampshire, to succeed J. W. Patter-
son. During Mr. \Vadleigh’s service
in the Senate he was chairman of the
Committee on Patents, having succeed-
ed the late Senator O. S. Ferry, as
chairman of that committee. He was
also a member of various important
committees. one of which spent nearly
one winter in Mississippi and Louisi-
ana taking testimony in regard to
alleged Southern election outrages. In
1879, failing of a re-election to the
United States Senate from New Hamp-
shire, he went to Boston and resumed
the practice of law. During the latter
years of Mr. Wadleigh’s life he was an
independent in politics. .

Mr. VVadleigh was a warm friend of 5,
our Senator O. S. Ferry, and an ardent .
admirer of his transcendant abilities.
He was also a friend of Mr. George IV.
Cram of Norwalk. and of the proprie-
tor of the GAZETTE. who was his secre-
tary after the death of Senator Ferry.
His daughter. a charming and most
accomplished lady, married a brother
of the Mr. Thomas who married Miss
Annie Hill, of Norwalk. He was a
man of high character, of great and
varied abilities.

TIIAT DISGRACE.FITL DOG F1 GIIT.

The poor dog which fought itself to
utter exhaustion at the brutal contest
Tuesday, is dead. It died of its fear-
ful laceration, while the Main street
dog is more dead than alive. The pity
is that the promoters of this savage
sport are not in the same condition.
But what were the peace officers of our
town about, to permit the parade of
these poor animals about our streets
for days and weeks, with the constant
statement that they were matched to
fight for money. It is stated that an-
other similar contest is in contempla-
tion, and we trust that Officer More-
house will at least endeavor to have all
concerned arrested and duly punished.

Somethin that will quiet the nerves,
give strenot to the body, induce re-
freshing eep, improve the quality of
the blood, and purify and brighten the
complexion is what many persons
would be very glad to obtain. Carter’s
Iron Pills are made for exactly this
class of troubles, and .are remarkably
successful in accomphshing the ends
desired, as named above. They are
useful for .both. man and woman. Sold

The New Haven Palladium makes the
following suggestion in connection with
the present political mnddle at Hart—
ford. It presents the case for the re-
publicans in a way which is strong and
suggests a test which ought to be satis-

“But if the democrats in the House

count for further blocking of public
business and refusal to take reasonable
action to settle the distracting and per-
A score of able re-
publican lawyers in the state take the
ground that the General Assembly may
make this investigation. If democrats
persist in doubt, are they willing to go
for a ruling to the learned and honored
court of last resort ? ‘

“Here,to be sure,is a case where the
courts can pass upon a principle disso-
ciated from partisanship and only af-
fecting the result indirectly. It is still
an. open question what the result of an
investigation, if entered upon, would
be, and the point of the legality of such
an investigation, upon which the Sen-
ate and House are divided, could be
settled by the courts with advantage to
all parties concerned. Either party
refusing such arbitration would cer-
tainly in so doing confess a weakness
which would not be creditable and
would suggest, at least, a lack of con-
fidence in its cause.”

THE STORM,

The storm that prevailed here from
late Saturday night until Sunday
noon was by no means so severe as the
great March blizzard of 1888, but in
its own peculiar way it was fully as re-
markable. The blizzard. begining
with rain, and winding up with wind
and snow, afllicted all classes of people,
and completely obstructing travel. Fol-
lowing the blizzard’s example. this
storm began with rain. succeeded by
snow and wind, but it bent all its ener-
gies to the destruction of the telephone,
fire, and electric light systems, both
in this place and South Norwalk. Up-
town the wires were down in many
places and communication was nearly,
if not completely, shut off, while the
city was in a similar condition.

A Boy’s Terrible. I njur J.
Bridgeport, Jan. 26.—A shocking
accident occurred at the works of the
Acme Shear Company Saturday after-
noon, in which Johnnie McPadden, a
youth 14 years of age, was maimed for
life. He was working on a machine

and in pushing back the lever his hand

slipped and his arm was drawn into the
gearing. Before the other employee
could realize the terrible predicament
the lad was in his arm had been pulled
out at the sockets and the unfortunate
boy had fallen back on the floor.
