the morale of every department of the city government would be improved. In reply to Mir. Stoddard, Mir. Sperry said that in his opinion the police force dare not do their duty at the polls, owing to the partisan way in which they are selected, from fear of los- ing their places. He said also that Republi- can sentiment had been aroused by the statement made in the Democratic papers that there would be no more Republicans on the Commissions and no more Republican members of the Board of Education, or even Republican teachers.
 Isaac Anderson, late Road Commissioner, was called. He said he thought a change Owing to unwise legislation by the Common Council in raising the pay of laborers, after the Commissioners had reduced it, was one of the acts of last year that greatly de- moralized the entire department He did not believe that New Haven was properly managed, and he did not believe the city gov ernment could go on the way it was going at present. He favored taking all the appoint ments out of the hands of the Mayor In reply to MT. Fowler he said that he thought the road department was an asylum for small politicians
 John L. Treat said he had always favored non-partisan commissions. He thought commissioners selected by the Board of AL dermen would be apt to be better men than if the Mayor had the appointing power. The Aldermen would be more untrammeled than the Mayor in making their selections. =
 Henry s. Dawson, president of the New Haven Water company, said he had always been opposed to special legislation for party purposes. He said he had great faith in his fellow men and in the Republican party. While he was in the minority he believed that the majority should rule. If the proposition of appointing four commissioners by the Board of Aldermen was carried out, then he thought the fifth man should be appointed by the Mayor. He thought New Haven was capable of governing itself without interfer. ence from outsiders. He thought leaving the appointment of the fifth man to the County Commissioners would be an outrage, as it would be taking the power from the majority and :Hgiving tit to the minority. He said he had talked with many eminent Republicans about the matter and they were of the same opinion as him. self. He had always supposed that New Ha- ven was one of the best governed cities in the country, and he would not be afraid to walk through the streets of the city at any hour of the night with his hands tied behind him In reply to MT. Pickett he said he was opposed to non-partisan boards. He ethought the party in power should be responsible for it's acts, and that the responsibility should not be divided between the two parties.
 This concluded the evidence for to-day, and the committee fixed on Wednesday af- ternoon next at o'clock for 8 farther hear ing in the matter. They expressed wish that the hearing might be concluded at that time.
