A lengthy but ome-sided discussion on' the importance of having the city put through a new street in place of Dur- kee lane furnished the opening num- ber, during which it was brought out that such an mprovement would be of vital importance and ought to be put through. The board also decided to have the public improvements com- mittee ask the common council for an appopriation (o spray the elm trees this spring, and expressed sympathy with the effort to have the town pay pupils’ tultion at the Academy. Arthur H. Grant of New. York, Rev. W. A. Keefe and Dr. P. H. Harriman were the speakers of the evening. and all were heard with deep Interest in their illuminating addresses, all receiying much applause. Yollowing the reading of the secre- tary’s report, as given by H. W. Tib- bits, he also read the list of 19 new members proposed by the membership committee, and they were unanimously elected. The list follow: Dr. T. A. Crowley, Archibald Mitch- ell, Jr, " Arthur M. Brown, Ozias Dodge,” Alden B. Nickerson, James F. Fenton, Joseph Hall, Rev, Charles H. Ricketts Tyler D. Guy, S.

The health and sanita- tion committee has not as yet arrang- ed with the Jabor unions for a public meeting to discuss the tuberculosis camps, bue expects to do so soon. For 'the educational committee W. D. Tilson presented the resolution adopted by the Principals’ club rela- tive to the town furnishing the tuition for Academy puplls, which has been printed. F. W. Cary thought this a step in the right direction and consid- ered it would be a good idea to have a meeting for the discussion of this mat- ter. It was voted that the board was in sympathy with the movement, and the Teport was referred to the educa- tional committee for action. The mat- ter concerning industrial _ training school, which came up last year, was referred to and the education com- mittee asked to report at the next meeting. Importance of New Street. In the public improvements commit- tee, John D. Hall stated that therc was nothing new regarding the strect which it was hoped would replace Durkes lane. He stated that he had sesn The Bulletin company, and they are ready to do theit part of the work, give the proper alignment and make the improvement, but the others have not been heard from. C. F. Theyer asked to have the ac- tion which had previously been taken on this matter read, which was done, showing that the committee had been asked to-get the number of square feet of abutting property owners, the lines of property and the estimated cost of the changes. Mr. Hall stated that The Bulletin company owns the greater portion of the property, but at the = Chestnut street entrance M. B. Ring owns the Jand, and from him no estimate of the damages he would claim has been ob- tainable, although he has promised to Eive it He waid that personally he didn't think much of the -hange, 3s it is more of a persomal than a public improvement, and not much used, he thought. After Mr. Thaver had moved that the committee be directed to follow out instructions given at the previous meeting and report at the next meet- ing, a question arose over a plan and it was stated by C. D. Noyes that The Bulletin company has a plan of the proposed change which the committeg can bave the use of. The Bulletin company is ready to do its part, he said, in heving a street put through. owning as it does 5,000 of the 7,000 square feet there. Fe coneidered oth- ers should do their part. The im- | provement is much more valuable to the city of Norwich than the chairman thinks, said Mr. Noyes, for hundreds of people and many teams pass through there dafly. It will require some changing in the way of rights, as Durkee lane diverts from the present traveled lancway and some owners have rights in the lane which can be tuken some other way. It will mean the destruction of a number of old shacks and the ereption of business | blocks and adding materially’ to the | srang list of the town, besides being &n_tmprovement of convenience. Mr. Thaver thought there could be no question as to the importance of the street, if put through, and thought the committee ought to get busy on the matter. A. P. Carroll explained that the committes had been held up by not_getting Mr. Ring's statement as to damages. The motion of .ALr. Thayer was carried. Spraying Elm Trees. The question of spraying elm trees was brought up .by President Tracy, who sald there are 400 in the streets or on the side of walks which Frank Kimball has stated could be sprayed for $500. General W. A. Aiken spoke in behalf of this and expressed great faith in it. It was voted that the pub- lic improvements committee appear before the common council and seek such an appropriatiop for the work tivis spring. ¥or the new industries committee, the président stated that there was no doubt but that they are tending strict- Iy to business and there need be no misgivings as to results. REBIRTH OF THE AMERICAN CITY Arthur H. Grant, Editor of The Am- erican City, Advecates Gom Form of Goverament. President Tracy at this point Intro- duced Arthur-H. Grant. editor of The American City, of New York city, to speak upon the subject, The Rebirth of the American City. Referring to the need of a change in the govern- ing of cities, he proceeded to show the ¥ of a change. and said that the city was not properly provided for at the uuion of the states of this country. No provision was made for the smaller entities because there were no cities of importance then. the city problem had not develoved. They have come up without any provision and the town is often better off than the city, as they are a part of the state and have a too definite stand- ing In Connecticat, as hrere they have too much power without regard to size. As cities developed they ‘began to ertain powers from the state, and then they have had to ask the state for all changes. There is always an overwhelming number. in a legisla- ture not familiar with the conditions in a city asking for a charter or want- ing & change. ~A clly often outgrows a charter, and then a new ore is ed sugh of Street to Replace Durkee Lane Con- H. Grant, Editor of The American City, Rev. W. A. Keefe and Dr. P. H. Harriman. : — # J ve as much power ds a corpora- . not political. In New Jersey un- ‘a general corporation act, the city organize into almost any form to do all but govern iself. This time Is coming and they will get general rights subject (o the laws of the state, The reason ‘the city is not allowed power for its own government is that it is not fit for it. Our present form of city government is government by committees It s gonerally the thing that when you cave a thing to a committee it isu't dome. (Laughter.) He told of the possibility of get- ting things done by the common council in_ the city in New Jersey where he lives by-“honest graft” that is, paying some one on the com- mittee 'to take an interest.in the city affairs_which have been referred to him. Because of lack of this graft the committee has failed to agt o a peti- tion before his council fof three vea: asking for the number of the houses on_his street. This has resulted in the adoption of the commission form of government. This form came into existence after the Gelveston disaster. They gof 2 commission of five men from the leg- islature and they reconstructed the city, ‘He compared the results in the rebuilding of Sen Francisco and Gal veston, the latter having done vastly better in that line because of the com- mission form of government. Responsibility Can Be Placed. Each member of the commission is responsible for the department he is at the head of. He can be held direct- 1y responsible, much in contrast to a board which refers matters to a_com- mittee where there is a lot of divided responsibility, all lay it on to someone else. ‘This is not so with a commis- sion, there is no division of responsi- bility o that, In & city of this size there is prob- ably mot a political boss, but he ex- ists in other and larger cities, but in a commission form he must either dis- appear or come out and take the job himself. The more numerous your elective officers are, the less ldiscrimination there is. especially if they are elected on a party ticket. Many undesirable men are often carried in with others. In electing a commission there arc very few to select. The nominations are by open ballot and not by party. They go into office free from all party privileges and promises which sepa- rates them from the national party preferences. It makes mo difference what the opinion of the city officials may be as to whether he will make a good officer. He has nothing .to do with national politics. ~ Politicians have been sad- dling this national phase on city elec- tions to keep the parties strong and have them help out in state and na- tional elections. ‘The = commission form destroys political power and patronage., System s Wrong. The American city is badly govern- ed, not because men elected to office are bad men but because the system under which they are operating is one under which no business corporation could exist for any length of time. It must often go to a state legislature which js not interested or hostile and wring from them the privilege of growing. Our present form of government Is irresponsible one which makes it easy for the dishonest or unpatrio man to work to the detriment of the city, and vet mot be held responsible, prévents those wanting to do some- thing from getting ahead. Very little power is given your may. or. He has the power to head the police in riot or raid and to appoint a park board. He has no power but has the privilege, subject to the council, of making recommendations, and pre- sides at the meetings. Have No Other Busine: Each of five commissioners is paid an adequate salery and not allowed to engage in any other business. The saving of those men in economy of ad- ministration has been many times their salaries. as they can act with promptness and despatch. It is the same as the business man having the opportunity to take ad- vantage of prices and conditions. Other forms of city government have been tried. One is where large power is given the mayor wherein he names the city officials and the num- ber in the council is reduced, This is now being trled In Boston for the first time there. The great danger is having so much authority in the hands of a fingle man, who cannot know all that is going on in all the departments. An example of this'is shown in New York, where the mayor is endeavoring to_know all about each department. In a city in Tennessee the council found things going to the bad, and hired a business manager to look after the city. It was a city which one man coulq handle, and it works all right, the council sitting and doing little or nothing. It would not work in a larger city. He said Columbia, S.

More than any of the old folks rea- lize, the little folks at the table like to have food and drink the same as Father and Mother, Perhaps you can remember the time when a fork-full of the meat or potato or a sip from the cup that your Father or Mother was using seemed to possess some remarkable merit and flavour.

In many towns the boards of trade show up the special features of the locality. He told of a smudging party in Col- orado where the people all light peiro- leum lamps to keep off the frost in pro- tection of crops. This is done on no- tice from the weather bureau through the board of trade. When the call comes and when we can help our fel- low men we should go out and do it, whether it dirties our clothes or not. (Applause.) Thefr visit to the stockyard in Chi cago was told of and it is remarkable the way In which they use up all the by-products. They do things business- like.
