(Special to The Bulletin.) New Lofldon, Oct, 12.—Persistent and united effort 'surely ought to be crowned with success, hmd that is what is being done just now in the city of New Iondon to prevent the sale of liquor to soldiers and sailors, or, for that matter, to any others ille- gally. While that committee of citi- zens, including liquor dealers, are get- ting ready to make good their prom- ises to put an end to the illegal sale of liquor in the city, federal. state and city officers, including special agents of ‘the railroad, are working in unison io that same end. The combination of poiice officials raided several places lgst Sunday, and with much success, and during the week there have been several arrests of bootleggers, a term applied to the chaps that sell liquor on the outside 1o men of the military service. Just as a side issue, perhaps, several places of disrepute have been included in the raids of the week. All of which goes tc ehow -that there is earnest effort to enforce respect for the liquor laws. When the citizens® committee co-cperates with this’gen- eral police committee, and when tie leaders of the no-license movement also gets into gear, there will be a formidable array of raiders that ought to end the illegal sale of liquor in the city, insofar as the clubs and kitchen barfooms are concerned. It has been suggested that the raid- ers do not cnnf?vu all their efforts against the ciass of liquor violators that have been mentioned, but that they go a step or two forward and get after the licensed liquor dealers who do the bulk of their business on Sun- day and after the legitimately con- ducted saloons are closed. There are licensed places in the center of the that do more boage business on Sundays than on the other six days of the week combined, and in addition do a nightly business on a scale that would put some saloons on a much better paying basis than at present, and where business is conducted on the level. There are @ number of these places that do an illegal business and their location is known to every mem- Ler of the combination of raiders. The new court of common council is now fully organized and all appointive officers have been reappointed, and every mother's son of them is happy. Alderman E. Frank Morgan succeeds former Alderman A. T. Miner on some committees and in addition was chosen senior alderman, who will act as mayor should the present active mayor took a notion to quit town for a day or two on business or pleasure. With Alder” man Miner out of the council, Messrs. Morgan, Kennerson and a few others will have easier eailing on matte they desire to push through that bods Alderman Harry C. Chapel is chair man of the important finance commit- tee. and Alderman Gragan goes to the police committec So for as was pos- sible the mayor appointed members to the 0ld committees and the few new members were given place on minor committees, except Alderman’ Curtiss, who is given place on the fire commit- «ee, it being the policy of Mayor Rog- ers to put no member of the fire_de- that committee. . This cannot always ie <one i the court of comuion councii of the city of New London, as nearly eve member s connected with the department. ‘The mayor delivered a message that overflowed with what the city and the mayor did In the patriotic line during the year, and every word of it was solid truth, for the mayor and the city surely kept in line with the other cities of the state in everything that per- tained to upholding the good name of the city and state. The mayor men- tioned again the advisability of having a city manager to attend to the details of municipal affaire and leave the mayor and the ccuncil free for legisla- tive business. The duties of the offico, if such were created, are not clearly defined by his honor the mavor. therefore the required qualifications are not known. The mayor has a clerk under small pay It has been suggest- ed that the mayor raise the salary of his clerk, by the same mothed that other salaries have been jncreased, and have him perform the dutles that the mayor would expect from a city mana- ger. If the clerk is not competent for the increased duties, get the right man for the place and pay him accordingly. The mayor's managerial plan does not meet with general favor, not mear as much as did the proposition of former Alderman Perkins for a commission form of government for the city of New London. The police department has advanced some since the days when there was one uniformed policeman, and his name was Smith, Hezeflah B. Smith, Civil war veteran, former postmaster and today one of the oldest members of the Niagara Engine company. No, he was not. the first uniformed polic man accorded that (\lstlnzuhhml honor was EbenAvery, and when he first ap- peared on the streets he was as at- tractive as a circus parade. Batween the Avery.and the Smith regime the city had a real police force, perhaps as large and as eflicient as the present, It had a chief of police. a captain, a lieu- tenant. a sergeant and even a clerk. The chief was Dr. Henry Potter and the clerk was Lis son George, subse- quentiy an engineer on the New Lon- don Northern railroad and its succe: or. Later there was another po force, with full’ whiskered captain, full whiskered lieutenant and at least one full whiskered patrolman, and all fish- ermen or deep water sailors. This force gradually faded away. and today, the city has a modern department. Now the mayor of the city of police, and there is also a a lieutenant, patrol sergeant, desk sergeants, over twenty patrol- men, and stop, iook and lsten, a corps of three detectives. That is going some. And all within the recollection of men who were too young to enlist in_the ¢ as did the old-time Smith department and Captain George Jlaven, the efficient head, next to the mayor, of the present department. The police committee contemplates other department improvements.

This is an opportune time’ for the committee to indulge In just a little reform work upon themselves, Confine their duties to the outside work of the department that is, the building, equipment. and €0 on, and lesve the internal polica work Wwith the captain in command and hold him responsible for the discipline and deportment and efficiency of the department. If all reports be true there is room for the application of the rod of discipline among the members but that can never be done If the committee insists on directing the work of the pclicemen, listenins fto their walls, and_plying favorites, as is done at the present time, by some commlitteemen: and even the yor who occasionally feels like exercising the authority of chief of police inde pendent of the plans of the captain in ‘harge, or government, member any other man in the ecity and that includes the of the police committee.
