The work of granting licenses was a little slow, not so fast as in other years, but they are out and to do the same business. We had hop- ed for fewer, for when 1,920 voters, representing the best soclal and re- liglous life of the city, had epoken their minds it was considered reason- eble to expect those in authority would ocut down the number. They have the authority. The authority lies entirely in the hands of the county commission- | ers. There may be appeals from their decisions, but it is highly improbable | that the court would reverse their de- cision. They had the power, and after petitions from those wanting better condition, might have heeded the de- mand. ‘We have discovered what a hold the saloon has on the citizens of Norwich. We have discovered that it is no easy task to overthrow it, but the sentiment back of the 1,920 votes will be heard— I give you that prophecy—it will be heard in the Town hall. ‘The people of the United States are a long suffering people and can stand much, but when they become convine- ed that a thing Is wrong, they will lose all they have rather than be overcome.

Board of Water Commissioners Did Not Agree—Will Ask for $20,000 to Rebuild Present Dam, Which Leaks. The board of er commissioners met at 5 o'clock Saturday afternoon in their office In city hall for an ad- journed meeting from Friday night and held a two hour s sult of which the $90,000 project for Bog meadow was abandoned and will not be presented to the council tonight. In its stead the board will ask for an appropriation of $20,000 for the rebuild- ing of the pr dam, which is leaky and not what it should be. 1t was felt by the board that such a sum as $90,000 should not be spent now for the proposed work, it being con- sidered too large, and as another prop- osition the rebuilding of the present dam will be acked for. \ The present dam s not considered safe and in fact comsists of only a small amount of masonry and gravel. It does not hold water without leak- ing and if it is intended to hold what can be secured af Bog meadow some- thing must be don It is believed that the sum of $20,000 will allow for the bullding of a core wall and the embankment necessary to furnish a dam like Pairview for all present needs and leave i so that it could be necessary buy what land is necessary for flowags. That was unanimously voted by the board and will go to the council. REID & HUGHES CoO. LEASE SHANNON BUILDING.
