Resolution Offered. What they were voting on was to lay on the table the resolution offered by Thomas M. Shields at the begin- ning of the meeting as follows: ereas, the citizens of the town of Norwich, assembled at the call of the Chamber of Commerce to consider the matters growing out of a contract with the Uncas Power company for the purchase of electricity, having full confidence in the honesty, integrity and ability of the of gas and electrical commissioners to deal with these questions and as it is a matter entirely for which said board are re- sponsible and over ich they have full authority: Voted, it is the sense of this meet- ing that all of the said matters relat- ing to the said contract be referred to said board of gas and electrical ecom- missioners for their determination without advice on our part as to what action said board should take in the premises. The motion to lay this on the table was defeated 90 to 86, zmid applause, as the vote was announced. Then the meeting the original motion and adj at once at 10.05 o'clock. President Somers Explained Call. President Willlam A. Somers of the Chamber of Commerce called the meeting to order a few minutes after 8 and explained its purpose in the fol- lowing words: Owing to the lack of time officially to call a city meeting it was requested and voted at a meeting of the Cham- ber of Commerce last Friday night that a call for an opert meeting be ad- vertised and held in the town hall on Monday. The spirit and reason of the meeting is, I am informed, for citizens interested in some certain civic af- fairs to express and explain their views. to pas: journed ‘Judge Brown Chairman.

Thomas M, Shields offered the res- olution referred to above, speaking first briefly before he read it. He said that, according to law the administration of the gas and electric light department was given over to the commiissioners and as far as he knew they had not asked for our ad- vice. They were ointees by the mayor, and as far as Speaker knew they were honestly trying to do the best they knew. Albert Boardman Began Discussion There was no doubt, sald Albert Boardman, as he took the floor, that the law gave the gas and electrical commissioners the righty to manage this department but he thought the public had a right to call them to ac- count. Felix Callahan rose to a point of order that the next business was to accept or reject the resolution. Chairman Brown ruled that discus- sion of the resolution was in order. Mr. B went on to say that we had a right to say what we thought about the board of gas and electrical commissianers. They may be honest and able but sometimes they don't act like it, and they are open to criticism. They can no doubt do aus they please, but we have a right to express our public opinion, There is a division in the board and you ought to vote down this resolu- tion though the board can then do as they like. Spalding Defends Commissioners. A. S. Spalding, secretary of the board of gas and electrical commis- sioners who had been stading with his finger in the air while Mr. Boardman had been spealing, got the floor as soon as Mr. Boardman stopped talking. lowing statement which he had pre- €as and electric piant: commissioners in comparing them with the old commissioners resigned their them do so. At once much was sald missioners. Among other fanlis as call at the time letters were published and a little later the supe expectation by the Mr, Spalding was applauded as he walked to the front and read the fol- par with vehemence as he defended the action of the commis- sioners and shed mueh light upon the The Old Commissisners.

This resignation of the su- perintendent came without warning or ‘board. once speculation was rife as to who would be appointed superintendent, and it was said by many at the time that the speaker on account of politics would be appointed. As develop- merts eame out. the board appeinted a practical man and it vmn'l? seem sure that the assertion as made at the time, that politics had a hand in it statement. ‘was not a correct Cashier Resigned. A little later the cashier resigned, publishing in the papers a letter which placed the commissioners in a bad light, and if he is here tonight I would ask him whether there was ever at any time, anything said or done by the board which woulld call for any com- ment by efther or the public, and which would require him to sign.

The majority of the people of Nor- wich it is 4 think we have a modern and up to date plant. Such is not the case and £s a matter of fact our plant, even though it hurts to make the statement in public, is mot such as Norwich should have. Under Bonds. On the question of a contract about which so much has been said, T trust this meeting will . recollect that the hoard of commissioners are under | bonds of $5,000 each and the intemt and purpose of the bonds are that they shall perform their duties entirely to the credit and for the good of the city of Norwich. T wonder if the men upon whom the calling of this meeting de- pended are aware of this fact. It is something unusual for the city of Nor- wich to usurp the duties of a commis- sion by a meeting entirely withoutau- thority over the commission, and a meeting the resuit of which might em- barrass the commission to such an ex- tent, that in the end, the city of Nor- wich may suffer a financial loss. Contract Not Closed. Now the contract about which so much has been said is not a closed transaction. Tonight to my own kncwledge at least, no one knows ujst what will be done, I am afraid that s0 much deley, so many unpleasant words have been said and written and so0 many dirty lines have been in the public wash that when it is all over, the city of Norwich will be the loser. It is to be expected that with a com- mission of five members, there may be questions upon which a division of opinion may be expressed, and mow we come to the point at issue. The pa- pers have had much to sav, informa- tion 25 we understand it coming most- 1y from one particular member of the ceminission, aithough it was agreed by the commission at their first or nearly first meeting. that any informa- tion as given the papers would be fur- nished by the secretary of the com- mission. Offered to Read Minutes. Now while it does not appeal to me to have it done, but considering the fact that so much has been said and published, T have with me the book eontaining the records of the meet- ings and will ask the commissioners present if they have any objections to the reading of the minutes. I will ask them here in public, name by name, to say to this meeting whether they are willing for this to be done or not. If there is a nigger in the wood pile, this meeting may have an equal chance with us all, I for one have nothing to hide and stand before the ocitizens of this city, confident that when this is all cver and settled my reputation for honesty will not be questioned over this affair. City May Lose Financially. Now to close, the commissioners as you all know have a meeting tomor- row night, while any action taken here might not prove an embarrassment, much harm it occurs to me has al- ready been dome by the besmirching and insuiting newspaper articles and letters; and I hope that those who may vote for any resolution which may be brought up for action, will consider the delicate position this meeting oc- cupies and the fact even though their personal or political enmity is against the commission, that possibly, beyond all this, the city of Norwich may lose, both financially and in other respects. Read Minutes of Meetings. Mr. Spalding called the commission- ers name by name to answer whether they were willing to have the records of the meetings read and when ail had answered giving no objection, he proceeded to read the minutes of all the meetings of the commissioners since Jan. 1, 1916, showing the sue- cessive stages in the negotiations on the new contract proposgd with the Uncas Power Co. Hs asked if there was anything in the records that showed any of the dishonesty that had beén talked around the street. This it was that Mr. Boardman had hinted at as far as he dared, said the speaker. If you think I'm dishonest, sald Mr. Spalding, you can proceed against me under the $5,000 bond which I have given as a commissioner. There were other questions, Mr. Spalding continued, that he would have liked to go into, hut they might embarrass the meeting of Tuesday night. He was speaking for himself and what he said he had spoken hon- estly for himself as a matter of per- sonal privilege. Judige John H.

The impassioned press agent this week displays a remarkable intimacz with child life. He describes a coming big novelty as being “a gorgeous scen- ic production in costume,” in which is used “real hot flamy fire whick does not seem to burn the lady and gentle- man eon the stage, who play with it as a child does its toys, even golng 80 far as to apparently eat it."—Kan- sas City Star. The Spur of Necessity. Freedom to do exactly as one chooses, if long continued, usually brings one to a point where nothing seems worth choosing. We fret at the constraint of duty and the spur of necessity, but there is nothing in life that supplies such zest as the fact that things must be done-and are given into our hands to be accomplished. AT DAVIS THEATRE. Vaudeville and Photoplays. An attractive vaudeville bill at the Davis #theatre on Monday had good sized houses that were well pleased with the offering: The Dixie Four, purveyors of melody and comedy, were in the topline place. Branley and Meredith, girls, who danced and sang their way into the good groces of those who saw them, had a pretty costume change specialty, and Harold Yates had a novelty singing, whistling and dancing turn. A great picture of the Canadian Northwest was on the picture bill, giving five reels of a fine production, and there was a Keystone reel that was packed full of the best known comedians in the country.

The study of packing condensed mince meat has ex- tended over a period of 100 years and today is as near its perfection as we can possibly conceive. The sanitation m the factories in which it is packed is beyond reproach as the competition today in these lines necessitates the guarding of the most minute detail of the business. The apples used are of the best grade of New York State, where in our opinion is grown the best flavored apple known. The raisins used are of the best gquality seeded variety. No expense is con- sidered in ring the very rade of spices, and sugar, as we all ow, is always sugar, the different grades merely represefiting the differ- ent flavors or different granulation re- quired for different purposes. Ewvery particle of fruit or any other article used in the manufacture of mince meat is thoroughly cl:aned and hand.picked by people trained to know what should and should not be used and in this manner the article comes to the house- Maplewood .
