Since that time he has not been ac- tively .engaged, although he was a partner in the firm of Bisket & Piteh- er.

Heé also leaves two children, William A. and Miss Louise Pitcher, both of Greeneviile, Mr. Pitcher is remembered by his business aseociates as'a man of great ability and unquestionable integrity. He was a home-loving man and a devoted husband and father. He leaves a large circle of friends to mourn his loss, and the bereaved family has the heartfelt sympathy of all in their sor- row, Death of G. H. Benjamin. He was born in Preston, August, 1856, the son of Louls S. and Ann Hinckley Benjamin, and had spent his whole life In Norwich.

The commission plan of government is already making some progress in this state, says_the Tattler in the New London Day. Norwich is trying to se- cure the adoption of a plan of this kind, and Waterbury and Bridgeport are ' threatening to do something of the same kind. Let us wish them luck. I believe mo opposition to_ the proposed new plan of city governfent for Norwich has yet developed. If none appears before the_legislative hearings It is very likely its petition will be granted. Then Norwich w be watched with great interest by the citizens of our other cities in order to ascertain how her new government works out. It started in to run a municipal gas and electric plant some years ago, but up to this time scarce- 1y two citizens of the Rose can be found to agree as to the ultimate wis- dom of that step. One thing is certain, the present day consumers of gas and electricity in Norwich are getting both these necessities at much lower rate than the citizens of New London get them. What will befall the future residents of our up the river neigh- bor when the city’s gas and electric obligationsmature is another matter. They are now living on the principle of “sufficient’ unto the day Is the evil theraut.” One feature of most of these com- missions by government plans should not . escape notice. The promoters frop:se to do away with newspaper publicity — that is, paid publicity. The dear newspapers afe going to be asked to do all the city advertising free of’ charge. Great scheme, isn't it? Of course the newspapers in_their keen rivalry for news will print it the city's legal advertising for moth- in. Yes, they will. The bright minds who concelved the commission plan of government evidently believe mnews- papers are just eleemosynary institu- ticts, end not dependent upon busi- ness Teceipts to keep their presses go- ing. Perhaps they shoulkd be par- doned, so many people are possessed of the same belief. I wonder how Norwich, for instance, is going to keep its residents informed as to what its governing powers are doing or intend doing? The scheme smacks of -star chamber proceedings. It is true, all meetings of the governing commis- sion are open, or supposed to be, but evervone cannot attend these meat- ings. Suppuse the commission wants to let contracts for public work, or hold hearings upon assessments, how will it secure public notice:that will be ample to meet the emergency? Even commission forms of govern- ment for cities differ in detail, and some do call for advertising some city notices in the newspapers, but most of them do not. It has generally been thought, before this new idea move- ment started, that public - business could not get too much publicity, and that advertising it in the newspapers was the best way of getting it beforo the people. In their zeal for economy the pro- moters of commission form of govern- ment have foolishly- concluded there was no need of advertising c business—that if the taxpayers want- ed to know anything about the doings or intentlons of the commission, they could go t3 the commissioners and ask them about it. To make it appear as it publicity is to be insured to all of the commission doings, the acts creat- ing the commigsion form of govern- ment usually reads that a report of all proceedings will be “given” the newspapers. When the commissioners. watit - Dids for supplies, coal, etc:, or bids for constructing a fire house, they cvidently are supposed to hand the newspapers the specifications, and the® latter, ‘in the goodness of their hearts, are expected to print them all witHoit ~ charge.- But -if the news- papers refuse to print advertising mat- ter free, what then? The public will be ‘compelled t5 live in blessed ignor- ance of what their business agents are doing. AT THE AUDITORIUM. Véudeville and Métior Pictures. Large ‘sized houses greeted the new Dill_on_ Thursday. afternoon and even- ing; and the patrons went away much pleased with the offerings of the dif- ferent vaudeville turns. Fanny Wood and girls, who are featured for the last three days of the week, present a very nedt singing and dancing act on the. musieal comedy order, in -which they introduce many new and catchy songs in a very.novel manner, Greene and Parker:aré a clever comedy team; who Keep the house in an uproar of laugh- tev for tie 15 minutes they are before the footlights.
