The next night at Norwich grange, which is Wednesday next week, is to be Flora's night, when a special pro- gramme is to be arranged. One of the interesting features will be a de- bate upon the subject: Resolved, That our common wild flowers are more of an annoyance than a benefit to mankind. MODISH CHINA. Along with the vogue of blue and white draperies and garden furniture has come the fashion for using blue and white china. For breakfast the chatelaines of country homes are using plates, cups, saucers, toast racks, por- ridge bowls, salts and peppers of Ger- man porcelain decorated in Delft de- signs, and one easily carried outfit for eerving breakfast in the bedroem con- sists of a round tray supporting a toast rack and flanked by depressions for milk, salt and pepper. Afternoon tea sets of blue and white Japanese china are in dragon pattern. Tehse sets, which may as well be used for breakfast as for luncheon, consist of plates in one size, cups and saucers, a_ sugar bowl, cream pitcher, teapot, chocolate pot,, bowl for nuts or fruit and accompanying dishes, a pair of cake plates and a square shaped, goodly sized clock to warn loitering guests of time's flight. Pe-ru-na and Ka-tar-no I have received fl » letter from a il voung lady, who asks me: “Is 1 the old Pe-ru-na il (Ka-tar-no) bet- er than the re- vised Pe-ru-na ” Either medicine its place. is adapted or ome condi- tion,"another for nother. Ka-tar- no is a better emedy for some — 9 conditions - than S. B. Hartman, M.D. revised Pe-ru- na. On the oth- er hand, the revised Pe-ru-nma is a better remedy for some corditions than Ka-tar-no. They are both in- tended as catarrh remedies. They have both done a great work in re- lieving catarrh, chronic and acute. Many hundreds of cases of chronic catarrh have recovered while taking Ka-tar-no and the same is true of the revised Pe-ru-na during the last six years since its revision. There is a _difference, however, in the two remedies. Whenever catarrh is assoclated with constipation, then the revised Pe-ru-na is the best, In- deed, this is exactly why the revision was made, to meet such cases, But where no laxative 18 needed, where the bowels are regular or inclined to be loose, then the old Pe-ru-na (Ka-tar- no) i8 the better remedy, s The revised Pe-ru-na is for sale at all drug stores, Those wishing to ob- taln Xa-tar-ne, address The Ka-tar-no Co., Columbug, Nbio. NORWICH BULLETIN, SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 7, 1912 Mahan New London’s Only Candidate No Campaigning_a—s Yet For Election Three Weeks Oif POLICE SEEKING INCREASE IN PAY Plan in Which Deserving and Undeserving Share Alike— Brilliant Welcome to Waterways Delegates — Un- licensed Drinking Places Need Attention — Aldermen Whose Terms Expire and How They Have Filled the Office. e There are so many things of spe-tand mechanics, and just a sprinkling eclal importance going on in New Lon- don that the coming city election is almost forgotten edcept by those who are liable to be called upon to ac- cept nomipation for city office. ~The election is less than three weeks in the future still there has been no sur- face campaigning. The principal of- ficer to be elected is mayor of the city and there will probably be but one candidate for the office and poli- tics or rather partisanship, will be eliminated in so far as goes that of- fice. Mayor Bryan F. Mahan is sure to receive the demrocratic nomination and the indications are that the re- publicans will make the nomination unanimous. No mayor within the rec- ollection of the oldest inhabitant has done anywhere near as much for the advancement of the city as has the present mayor and he is certainly needed in that office to carry to com- pletion some of the progressive pro- jects that are mnow in the works. ‘Whether the nomination is unanimous or not Bryan F. Mahan will be con- tinued in that office for another term. No man in the city cah defeat him for.it for he will be to all intents and purposes a genuine people’s candi- date. It is essential for the future pros perity of the city that Mr. Mahan be retained as mayor, for should he fail of election he would lose membership on the commission that has to do with the development of the New Lon- don harbor in commection with jthe ap- propriation of $1,000,000 state, chiefly throughly the efforts of the mayor-senator. This of itself should be reason sufficient to make the nomination unanimous and thus do the nice| thing for the mayor that has done 86 much for his native city. So far as known there are no oppo- sing candidates and it is understood that the republican party managers will not endeavor to persuade anyone to enter the field against Mahan, but should some aspiring republican want the nomination it is quite probable that his ambition would be gratified and nomination formally made, but that would be all. . The big demon- stration of the present week, the con- vention of the Deeper Waterways as- sociation, the visit of the president and all the attendant accessories is mainly due to the efforts of Mayor Mahan. He has grown to be a big man a.n}ong big men and the voters of New/ London, without regard to party, will show appreciation at the coming city election. The del s to the Deeper Wa- terways convention and other visitors ‘must have been pleased with the hos- pitable reception accorded them by the several official comimittees and the people generally. The principal busi- ness streets were decorated and bril- liantly lighted in their honor and never before did State street look prettier than when {lluminated by thousands of colored electric lights strung across the street for its entire length, while the 1784 courthouse shone forth brighter than at any time during its long existence. The most artistic and effective electrical deco- ration was the soldiers’ and sallors’ monument and the public landing, due to the good taste and enterprise of Alderman James F. O'Leary, chairman of the committee on public property. Though the event was not so auspi_ cious, still the Parade was as brilllant- ly lighted and as prettily decorated as was Franklin square in Norwich on the occasion of the two hundred and fiftieth celebration of the founding .of {hat town; and Alderman O'Leary did t. The rest of the streets were illum- inated under the direction of the local committee on convention and the work was all that could be desired in its beauty and completeness. Great aid was given by the New London Gas and Electric Light company that fur- nished free the juice that produeced the brilliancy—a liberal contribution to the conventign reception. The New London police force is not a union organization or anything .of the kind but they have politely asked the police committee of the court of common council to ask for an appro- priation sufficient to give every mem- ber of the force an increase of $10 a month, thus making the pay of the captain $105, the lientenant $95 and that of the patrolmen $85 a month. The department was represented at a meeting of the police committee by three delegates who presented statis- tics of the police pay in other cities in support of their request. The police made no demand for the increase and there is no fear of a strike if the re- quest is denied, but the police offi- cers believe there is justification for the request for the increase in pay. The officers have no allowance for un- form or equipment and save two weeks vacation a year, are paid only when on actual duty and are not car- ried on the pay roll in case of sick- ness. The request of the officers is considered as reasonable by the po- lice committee and perhaps recom_ mendation will be made for the in- crease in pay. Should the officers receive this de- served increase there should be cor- responding increase in the service rendered the public, and perhaps closer investigation of the service rendered by some of the officers but fortunately there are very few of this class, but just enough to cast reflec- tion on the force as a whole. There are members of the police force who, by reason of habits should have no place on the force unless there be im- mediate reformation. There are offi- cers in uniform who have been seen under the influence of liquor while on duty and have shown disrespect to law-abiding citizens who are entitled to courteous consideration, while the police force as a whole is composed of men of good habits and character, still there are those few black sheep that are said to be in almost every flock. When this increase in pay is grant- ed it would be the opportune time to impress upon the officers the neces- sity of strict performance of duty and not tolerate fragrant violations of the laws, especially the liguor laws that are so openly violated in New Lon- | don, especially on Sundays and gener- ally after hours. Every officer on the force knows, or should know, that in some places in the city an open busi- ness is done on Sunday and where anybody with the price can be served, and.the police know that thése places are not licensed. Last Sunday noon by actual count seventeen persons en_ tered ona of these {llegal drinking places within ten minutes and fully A8 Many more came out. patrons are soldiers, sallors artisans v y thel! ‘| he does not desire re-election but down ‘were not many sizes too large, Out of Sorts?

It is understood that the police are ready to do their full duty in this matter, but according to cus- tom these places are not molested by the officers except on special orders. This should not be so and it is up to the police committee to define just what is expected of the officers along this line, making their wishes known to the captain and the cops will do the rest. At the coming city elestion an al- derman from each ward will be elected as well as mayor, the outgoing alder- men being Charles C. Perkins, re- publican, of the first ward and senior alderman, Samuel Prentice, republican, of the second ward, John J. Ryan of the third, James F. O'Leary, democrat, of the fourth and Robert Small of the fifth. These aldermen have performed the duties to the full satisfaction of the people and are entitled to reelec- tion on their merits. Perkins has been acting mayor in the absence of Mayor Mahan and although the may- oralty shoes did not pineh his feet they Préntis has been an alderman of the Missouri type and was not always quick to fall into line with the majori- ty on several measures and shortly after his election took up the cudgel with the mayor that resulted in his retirement by his own action from the chairmanship of the street committee where he was assigned by the mayor. Alderman Prentis has been announced as a willing candidate for the nomina- tion of mayor, but this was some time ago and now, it is understood, that he does not want to enter the arena with Mahan, not that he fears to tackle him, but rather that it might be injudicious to make a change just at_this time. Ryan is the chairman of the police committee and he has seen fit to man- age the department along about the same lines as his predecessors whicn has not been for the best intérests of the force or the people. He has fi- nally realized that there should be a change in methods and less interfer- ence direct with the members of the force and that they should do their business direct with the captain and with no other member of the force. He has performed the general duties of alderman to the full satisfaction of the people. | O’Leary is a live wire of the coun- cil and is considerable more of a work- er than a talker, but when he addresses the council he does not do so for the sake of hearing himself talk, but he has something to say that is practi- cal and always receives careful con- sideration. He had hardly been ini- tiated into the doings of the court of common council when he took up the matter of a sealer of welghts and measures and after months of hard work succeeded in having ruies to govern the conduct of the officer and had an officer appointed that did his duty, and there became something be- sides a pame in the office of sealer and weights and measures. Then as chairman of the committee on public property he took up the matter of a much-needed new clock in the steeple of the First Church of Christ, to re- place the old town clock that had been completely worn out by a long term of faithful service. O'Leary persist- ed and after a long, long while, finally succeeded in securing the desired ap- propriation and now the new clock marks the time and is right up to the second. O'Leary is the only alder- man who has made declaration that in the fourth ward he is wanted for at least a second term and he will probably yield to the wishes of the people. Small is not the kind of an alder- man that his name would indicate, for he really is a big man in the council, and there are but few matters of inter- est that are introduced in the councli that he does not exhibit personal so- licitation. He does not hide or at- tempt to hide his position on / any question. As chairman of the health committee and street railway commit- tee he has done yeoman service for the city. It is understood that Wil- liam Baseley is out for the nomination in opposition to Alderman Small bu 80 far known there are no party op- ponénts to the nomination of Perkins, Prentis, Rvan or O'Leary.
