A CITIZEN OF THE CITY.
An Argument for Consolidation.

To the Editor Of the Journal and Courier:
In the Journal and Courier of Satur-
upon the question of consolidation
which calls for an answer. The author
had evidently never read the act. or
he would not have written as he did.
To any one who reads the act as pass
ell by the late legislature the advan-
tages to the residents of the present
town wards must appear great The
act is more than generous in it's pro-
visions and in the protection it gives
the electors and taxpayers of the Thir-
teenth, Fourteenth and Fifteenth
wards. The act has been printed and
distributed to the voters of these
The daily morning journal and courier. [volume] (New Haven, Conn.) 1894-1907, 1897-06-14
IsIt Necessary to Consolidate?


To the Editor of the Journal and Courier:
I had not taken much interest in this
consolidation scheme till this (satur-
day. a. M, when I read the words of
a correspondent from the standpoint of
resident of the district to be an
nexed
from his view point, neither can I see
where it helps us within the old city
limits. I find 1t is not necessary for us
to take them in to accomplish the prac-
teal wiping-out of the town govern
ment. All we need to do is to transfer
all duties now performed by the select
men (save only the making of voters)
from the town authorities to the city
government This could be done by
legislative enactment
Acreage without population is very
expensive glory for city. We cannot
afford to take all the farm lands in the
outlying wards under our protecting
wing without taxing them more than
they can or ought to stand. If we do
not give them the protection they are
liable and can be made to pay just the
same as Chicago and Pittsburg were
made to pay for the losses and damages
by the rioters because the city officers
did not suppress them and prevent
such lawless performances. 1t must be
borne in mind that there is a direct
contract between every individual and
the municipality. The individual has
surrendered his right to personally
avenge any infringement ON his rights
and the municipality has in return
agreed to protect, defend and guaran-
tee each individual and when the gov
eminent fails the city, county or State,
as the case may be, is liable. Therefore
we cannot afford to do this.
1t would be much better for both the
citizens of the present city, as we'll as
those of the outlying wards, that they
be cut off by themselves, letting New
Haven retain full control of all the sur
rounding waters and therefore main
tanning the bridges, which is the bug
bear that is being somewhat success
fully used to scare these people into
accepting this new proposition. There
is no more attractive little place around
New Haven than the town of East Ha-
ven. The citizens there have city water
and opportunities for hydrants for fire
protection. They have good schools,
street lights, good sidewalks, good
roads, trolley connections and although
they have some very expensive roads
to maintain yet it Is all done on a tax
of about l per cent. 1t would seem
to the writer to be a serious injustice
to bring these outlying wards into the
city with its 2 per cent. tax, when if
they would only go by themselves as
a separate town there is no reason why
their tax would be much, if any, in ex-
cess of the rate paid by East Haven.
1 sincerely hope the residents of
those wards will see their way clear
to vote down the proposition and then
later, if they feel like it, 1 would say
make a separate town of what is now
the Fourteenth and Fifteenth wards
And in connection with this, what is the
matter with Westville and West Ha-
ven coming together as a new town?
We would then be left as a compact
municipality which could be run under
a city government at a minimum ex-
pense.

wards who must tomorrow decide
whether they will accept this generous
compromise and settle the whole ques-
ton or not.
1t is provided in the bill that the tax
OH property in the three town wards
shall not be more than four (4) mills on
the dollar, unless by a majority vote
ward decides to become part of the
city. This is legislative enactment,
and cannot be changed except by a new
act of the state legislature. 1t then
provides that either of the three wards
may become part of the city proper
upon petition of one hundred electors
and majority vote of the electors of
that ward. 1t also provides that oyster
grounds shall only be taxed four mills,
even though the ward is taken into the
city.
With these provisions incorporated
into the law of the state 1t would be
almost impossible to influence any sue
ceeding legislature to change the law
in this respect, so that taxpayers are
practically assured that they will only
be obliged to pay four mills of taxes
until they petition and vote to come
into the city.
The act really makes very little diff
ference in the management of the two
questions in which the town wards are
specially interested, namely, roads and
poor. The care of roads is simply
Transfer al from the selectmen to the
director If public works, who should
under the new charter be the best quail
flied to deal with that question. I'm
der this director both the city streets
and the outlying roads should be kept
in the best condition and with less ex-
pense than at present, If a favorable
vote is taken tomorrow all who have
studied the question know that the
roads of the whole town will be kept

CONSOLIDATION.
why Not Increase our Kepresentation.9

why Not Increase Our Representations?
To the Editor of the Journal and Courier:
An ex-mayor of Bridgeport told me
some years since that he thought it was
a serious mistake that they made when
they annexed West Stratford and East
been much more to their interest to
have let their population spread over
into those two towns and they would
soon have gained population point
where they would have been entitled to
extra representation in the General AS
sembly and the interest Of the people
in those sections would be along the
same line, If in fact not identical, with
Bridgeport's welfare, and consequently
Bridgeport would have had practically
an extra representation in the General
Assembly.
1t strikes me that the above is good
reasoning and applies with equal force
to the presnt condition of things in
our city. / do not think 1t is to the in
terest of New Haven that annexation
should prevail. 1t were vastly better
that we let Fair Haven East go off as
separate town. They now have pop
ulation sufficient to claim one repre-
sentative and not very far off will be
entitled to two. Then encourage West
Vile and West Haven to do likewise.
1t will be manifest to the most casual
observer that the interests of the two
new towns will be along the same line
with New Haven, and consequently New
oplx tyH,n
representatives, but would have the one
or two from Fair Haven East and the
two from West Haven and Westville,
so that New Haven would practically
have five or six representatives in
Hartford and this would be much more
near her just due. Another good feat
ure of this plan would be that being
broken up in different towns the men
elected would more likely be of different
political faiths than If all We're elected
from one town on a general ticket, and
consequently would do more and better
work for New Haven interests. This
operation would also tend to bring the
whole State a good long step forward
to the desired goal of a constitutional
convention to correct the present (mis)
representation in our General Assem-
bly,. 1t will be a long day before we
do get that great error corrected I'M
less we can bring some such pressure
| as above outlined to bear upon the at
| tention of our Country Cousins" 1t
seems to the writer worse than folly for
| us to complain of present representa-
ton when we, instead of partially cor
recting it, deliberately go about to make
it worse than it now is. E.
