Normal Republican Majority Democratic—Politics in in Stonington Vote. 1t is self-evident that the citizens of the town of Groton, the people who pay ture of Groton Long Point as a resi- | dential shore resort, for when the mat- ter of bu ing a bridge from Noank to Groton ng_ Point was before the town meeting, there was unanimity of opinion in favor of the plan and the appropriation of $7,000 for the purpose s made without opposition .The cit- izens re > that at the present rate of development it will not be long be- fore the taxable property at the point will pay the interest on the cost of the bridge. There was realization of the need of a convenient road to the point as heretofore the only approach was over a right of way on adjacent farms |ing of three gates on the trip from the | main road to the point. This new ap- | the changed conditions will jof carriages and will tend to en- hance the value of the property at the point. ..There is no resort on the coast that {has grown so rapidly as has Graton {Long Point in the past two seasons land what was formerly an extensive | hay farm is now a really thriving sum- | mer resort with the very best of pros- {pects of healthy increase in growth; as the lots are disposed of with some | discretion and when the colony is com= | plete there wil be no abjectionable feat- ures to eliminate. There is already at |running water, a club house, | forty new houses of modern design, haif a mile of broad board walk along one of the finest of beaches and about five miles of winding roads. In the past two seasons lots have been dis- posed of to 406 persons and the sum pald was over $200,000. Plans are now being made to have an electric light stem at the point by next season and effort will be made to have increased electric car service, with perhaps branch line to the main bathing beach. BEven New London people, with Ocean ! beach conveniently near have erected at cottages for their Groton Long Point. That colon; E started right by erecting fine house: instead of shacks and, in consequence, when fully developed will be in much better shape than many other shore re- sorts. own upancy Although in the election of last Mon- day New London returned its normal republican majority of about 300, and {elected three of the five aldermen nom- | inated and all the rest of the city and town ticket, the court of common | council democratic majority is in- creased by one. Therefore the demo- crats have the local patronage that is doled out annually by every incoming council. A year ago the democrats graciously reappointed Charles Prentis as charlty commissiéner, though for years Mr. Prentis served as republi- can selectman and was once the re- publican nominee for the legislature, and has been republican ever since his ntinority. A true blue consistent re- publican. The democratic council re- appointed Mr. Prentis and ignored the application of Ex-Mayor and Ex- Senator Cyrus G. Beckwith for ap- pointment as charity- commissioner. It is evident however, that the dem- ocratic party as a whole wanted to recognize the democracy of Mr. Beck- witi. and at the recent party conven- tion he was nominated as candidate for city treasurer, a more dignified posi- tion than charity commissioner and with fully as much coin recompense. Mr. Be>kwith declined the nomination and, as a result, democrats did not have the opportunity to vote a com- plete democratic icket, if there were any who had such a desire. He will probably not be a candidate for char- ity commissioner, unless he has pos- itive guarantee of the appointment for it is understood that he will take no more chances with the nominating powers «of his own party. It understood that George Goss, he who sacrificed himself in the recent election by accepting the nomination for town clerk, in response to the party wish that there be a candidate for every office on the ticket, 1s & can- didate for charity commissioner. Mr. Goss aid not have the slightest idea that he would defeat the republican nominee, but he worked for election and as probably belleved for the best interests of the party. Mr, Goss is espectally well qualified” for ‘the posi- tion of charity commissioner by reason of having filled the posttion several years and with full satisfaction to the council and the people and is the only commisgloner of the democratic per- suasion who received special praise in the report of the republican chairman of the charities commission, Tha in- dications are that Mr. Prentis will be retired by the incoming councll, but political indications like the old-tima weather signs are not always reliable, Mr, Prentis has during the year had an assistant appointed to ald him in his work and tegether they ought to do the work of the office satisfactorily, Heretofore, and ever since the offics the freight, have confidence in the fu- | and necessitated the opening and clos- | 'NEW LONDON ELECTION RESULT Returned — Council Remains | the Fire Companies as Active as Ever—Groton Realizes Value of Shore Resorts—Tie commissioner had and with- Condi- { was created, the ample time to do the work out putting in any overtime. tions may have changed, however, and the service spread beyond the reach of even such a competent official Charles Prentis.

While Alderman Thomas E. Deno- hue was awaiting tho result of the vote for alderman in the First ward | that failed to reelect him as a repub- | Groton Long Point an ample supply of | pier, | lican member of the court of com- mon council from that ward, there {was a meeting of the Nameaug gine company of which the alderman {was foremmn a vear ago. Wit giving Mr. Donohue the bene hearing the company voted | him from the membership. No | charges were flled with Mr. Donohue and he had no official knowledge that any such action was contemplated. | He did know that some membe: | the company and some member large fraternal and beneficial organi- zation of which he is a leading mem- ber, were actively at work in the ward against his reelection. the expulsion can be effective the ac- i tion of the fire company must be ap- proved by the court of common coun- cil and Mr. Donohue will endeavor to prevent that approval. If he suc- ceeds he will probably resign from the company where a majority of the members are opposed to his member- ship. approved by the Nameauge will be as the the court of common council act was unjustifiable. A rumored reason for the action was that Mr Donohue, as fore permitted the men in the employ of the contractor of the new municipal building to use vear when the new officers although they were assured by the contractor the use of the toilet would be abandoned within a week as accommodations would be then ready in the new building. The new officers persisted and put a pad- lock on the toilet door. Health Officer Black, after recelving permit for the use of the toilet from a ma- jority of the fire department com- mittee forcibly opened the toilet. Then there were threats of arrest and counter arrests, but this feature was dropped. But the action of Mr. Don- ohue in this matter was the pre- text for his expulsion, it being claim- ed under the company rules that no force for a made objection, of the fire house to any non membe: or to an outsider This of itself, is of { course, no cause for any such dras- tic action on the part of the Nam- eaugs There was surely another little pick- aninny hidden away in the chopped cord 'wood and it is hinted that he wandered_from another organization into the Nameaugs to carry on the fight that had already been com- menced against Alderman Donohue. Be that as it may but it is difficult to convince many in New London that Mr. Donohue was fired from the company of which he was the head only a year before, just because he respousible citizen who has the con- tract for the construction of the municipal building. The feeling against Mr. Donohue in the Nam- eaugs propably commenced when as an nlderman, a member of the fire commlittee and foreman of the Nam- eaugs failed to get for his company the modern fire apparatus that was awarded to the Nlagara company. Alderman Donohue was not to blame for that and us a matter of fact he fought atrenuously te have the ma- chine g0 to. the Wermemtge but was all alone In the fight, Besing that he could not succeed he graciously with- drew and made the award unanimous. Later on the city decided to pur- chase ansther moter.driven fire ap- paratus and again Alderman Donehue commenced to plug to get the appare atus fer the Namesugs. He realized | that 1t was hopeless and, rather than ! to as| been elected and the le; period for | withdrawing candidacy has passed. While the candidates may not be anx- ious for the office the claim made that it is just as essential that the full complement of constables be elected as there Is a full board of selectmen, assessors or any other board.

And that's where the apparatus went. And perhaps that's why he was opposed so strongly at the polls last Monday and perhaps that's the main reason why the Nam- caugs voted in favor of expulsion. One who claims to represent the feel- ing of the Nameauge in this matter | declares that the old company was once a power in local politics and that power was to be restored. He said the boys went out and got Donohue and would have got Dick Brockett, too, in the ¥Fourth ward, if the time could have been divided. The feeling agains: Alderman Brockett by the Nameaugs is because as chairman of the fire committee he declined to per- mit an addition to be made to the Nameaug house because the appro- priation made for the purpose was entirely inadequate.
