omission OF cutters and spouts
from the plans were not gnotIccd by
the building committee. The orig

THE REPUBLICAN has no desire
10 land itself to the skies but We
will say that the frat article on
the gamblers being protected in
our city was published 10 its col
umns some two months ago which
created quite a sensation ia police
circles The charges then made
in the REPUBLICAN have been fully
sustained and Chief OF Police
Eugene Massey has as conse-
4ueuce been dismissed from the pc.
lice force. The investigation, it is
true, has dragged along SLOWLY
and has been held behind closed
doors but the evidence OF each wit
ness for and against the chief has
been weighed carefully and deliber-
ately aud the finding is Of no hasty
Judgment. We are sorry that the
chief should have SO placed him

Of suspicion rest upon him. Beng

is not the first Republican Chief OF
Police 10 Wilmington who has fall

necessity tor the deposed chief to
have become entangled with the
policy hackers and gamblers. The
evidence adduced at the hearing
was taken down in shorthand and
made very interesting reading mat
ter ia the Wilmington dailies yes

lished the public could have OPP
portunily to Judge if the deposcd
chief was guilty Of the charges up
On which he was being tried before
The Police Commissioners. Accord
ing to the evidence the Police Com
missioners had no other alternative
Than to dismiss the chief from the

wise man he would never have
allowed himself 10 be dismissed but
would have handed ia his resigna-
hon. The chief knew when this

to go over the steps that have led up to present situation. At the meeting on Saturday night the committee ap- pointed to circulate the call for the town meeting consisted of Attorney c. H. Northrop, Rev O. w. Barker, Rev o. o. Wright, Dr J. W. Gordon and A. B. Blakeman. The financial side of the question is one which may act as a bugbear with some voters, but when rightly considered the objec- tions disappear. It is estimated that the expense for the school the first year, say 5000, would add less than a half mill to our tax rate. That is, if a man was paying a tax of SIP, his tax under the increased cost of the high school would be about 43c. It is hoped that all our citizens will take broad and public spirited view of the ques- tion. While it is admitted the educa- tional problem locally is perplexing one, is it not high time that some for ward step was taken? The petition to the selectmen reads as follows:
 We, the undersigned, inhabitants of the town of Newtown, qualified to vote in town meeting, respectfully request the selectmen of Newtown to convene a special town meeting of said town, for the purpose of establishing and maintaining school of a higher grade within said town than the schools now required by law, to be known as the Newtown High school, adopt regula- tions for the management of said school, if established, and to do any other business necessary and proper to be done at said meeting.

roadmaster on the Shepaug. He was a man of exceedingly keen judgement, and held his position without change under half dozen different superin- tendents. When the New Haven road took over the Shepaue MT Garrison was offered the post of roadmaster of the Danbury division, which includes the Shepaug branch. But having large real estate interests in Roxbury, and being much attached to his home, he finally accepted the place of section foreman on his home division. As road master he knew about every man along the Shepaug division. Every body liked "Jeff" Garrison and hated to have him leave his position. A man of few words he attended strictly to business, and always had the confidence of the higher officials. He now retires to his farm to enjoy more leisure than he otherwise would enjoy in the "more strenuous life" of railroad man.
