NEW LONDCN AND ITS AFFAIRS (Special to The Bulletin.) few London, Oct. 4—For the first time within the memory of the oldest eitizen a New London city meeting was held in the open, that is, not in the old court house, but on the out- side. This was due to the prevalence of influenza and the mayor did not deem it advisable, for sanitary rea- sons, to hold the city meeting in the building, although there were not more than forty citizens at the meeting. All the recommendations made by the court of common council in resard to annual appropriations were passed, Including a snug increase to give the mayor, some other city officials and “the cops considerably more pay ihan they have received in the past. Form- er Mayor and Governor Thomas M. ‘Waller was there, and as of yore as- sumed the role of leader in matters forensic. He had something to say in response to the saying of anybody else, and when this was lacking he Spoke on matters of his own origin. At seventy and eight, Mr. Waller is kably active man apparentl; in local affairs as he was as actl 3 haif a century ago, and with that same dictorial attitude, regardless of common methods and parlia- usago mentary ways as the Waller way is the way city business ought to be con- ducted. The only difference between then and now is that the present gen- eration does not seem to require a Waller or any other man to teach them lessons in municipal manage- ment. In consequence the old time Yeader has to keep his weather eye out in order to keep into the band wagon. It was made plain during the meeting that the governor is still onsulted by some when plans are to oppose administration plans.

BEST MATERIALS | republican voters. In some instances the introductibns are appreciated, but in others the candidates need no in- troduction fo the voters of New Lon- don. The basis of the boom for one candidate is that he was born in Nor- wich fiftyyears ago, with cut from a photograph taken at twenty-fivé: that he was a former democratic collector of customs and is now treasurer of a social club. Mr. Bodenwein originated the plan in New London of requiring candi- dates to pay for the booming they re- ceived through the newspaper chan- nel. He was not chairman of the re- publican town committee at that time. As the boomlets are signed by the re- ‘publican town committee it is presum- ed the bills for booming are paid for by funds of the committee. If not paid for in advance, there may not be funds adequate to meet the expense. In that event the debt will be assumed by the chairman of the committee, as is usually the case in New London, in both parties. So far as goes the newspapers, locally, there is but one party in New London and that is the republican, not the democratic, as the latter does not seem to put up the coin for political advertising. John F. Murray, the democratic can- didate for mayor is also chairman of the democratic town committee, but he has no newspaper at his back as has the republican chairman, and is therefore adopting different tactics, to gain votes, perhaps. The democratic campaign fund ought to be fully as large as that of the republicans, and it probably is, but it is not being used to cover money that is supposed to be on the table, but is as elusive as the Irishman’s flea. Murray is an old cam- paigner; so is Bodenwein, and they worked the political game together in the long ago. It has been hinted that the democrats are working a pussey- foot campaign with the hope of dem- onstrating that it is the quiet fish- ermen who catch the fish. A glance over the candidates of both tickets, republican and democratic, reveals a condition in politics that did not exist in New Londen when the men of sixty-five of today cast their maiden votes. Had conditions been identical there would have been no occasion for the formation of the Pat- rick Henry club, organized for the sole purpose of demanding that mn Irish- man by birth or descent be nominated for office on the democratic ticket. For be it known that at the period in ques- tion nearly every then called Iris voter was a democrat. That club serv- ed its purpose and since then there has heen no special fight to et recog- nition of either ticket. Conditions in that respect surely have changed and the so-called I vote is pretty even- Iy divided, and the strength is, recog- nized by both parties. All are Ameri- cans nowadays, just as they should be, and are not bound to any particular political party. DR. BLACK ASKS FOR DOCTORS AND NURSES All doctors and nurses who are in a position to render their services wherever in the state they may be most needed during the influenza epi- demic were urged on Friday by Dr. John T. Black, secretary of the state department of health, to send their names to that department. Doctors and nurses called upon will be given compensation and all expenses. Dr. Black said that there was a great need in Connecticut of doctors and nur: As the epidemic reaches its height and sweeps over the state from east to west, pneumonia and deaths in- crease in number, and in certain com- munities the shortage of physicians and nurses is greatly felt,” Dr. Black declared. “The department of health earnestly urges upon all physicians and nurses not to leave the state, but to remain where they are in readiness for a call. No doctor or nurse should nezlect the opportunity to render his or her very real bit by thinking that there is someone else to bear the burden. Personal risk incidental to at- tending cases of influenza can be avoided by wearing a mask.” Engagement Announced. The engagement has been announced in Providence, of Mrs. Eva Davis to Alfred T. Pollock, of New London. SUNDAY SUBJECTS Owing to the fact that the health officers of the town and city have or- dered the churches closed on Sunday. the subjects of the sermons sent The Bulletin have been omitted.
