MUNICIPAL AFFAIRS OF NORWICH
Gilbert S Raymond addressed Open House Club on In teresting Subject-Many Disadvantages and the Rem edy-Principa TirrelI to Speak Next Month.

i, has heen gobbled I'D by the New York, New Haven and Hartford road, which is not interested in the development of water freight but rather rail freight. The Electric power available, coming from the plant thirteen miles away on the Shetucket river, is likewise a big point to the city's advantage.
 Some Disadvantages.
 Among the disadvantages he men, toned first the antiquated form or city government, of which an instance is shown in the fact that the town takes care of the bridges, but the city looks after the streets up to the bridges. Places on the Corning road pay a city tax, but in Norwich Town above the hospital only town tax is paid. The absurdity and inequality or both of these conditions is manifest. Then there is a lack of interest and an indifference about municipal affairs and the more progressive cities of the state have done away with city and
 town government. Under this plan here are within the limits of the town
 Norwich fourteen distinct municipal
 rganizations, comprising town, city
 ad school governments. There is no
 ecessity for all of these. The charity
 ystem is antiquated, for the select nen of the town look after the poor. duch of the bookkeeping is also be- lind the times, and in the city gov- srnment it is often hard for the citizen to locate responsibility in the city af- fairs. There is a net debt of little over a million dollars, but the city has to show for 1t the reservGir and water department, which pays an annual i'm come of $40,000, and there is the elec- tric lght-and gas department, which is a revenue producer for the city at the same time as reducing the price of gas and electricity The olda way of granting the franchises forW trolley tracks, telephone and telegraph wires, had been great loss to the city. as they were given years ago, when they were considered of very little value. whereas they should be paid for and only granted for a term of years.
 Remedies.
 Some of these things could be rerne- died by having a central purchasing agent for all the city's needs, such as the coal supply for fire department, schools, almshouse, town hall, thereby getting better prices for all things to be bought. Better municipal adminis- tration could also be secured and the city put upon better business basis by following the German plan of hiring the mayor of a city for a term of years and making him the responsible man in authority. MT. Raymond said this worked finely in the German cities. Berlin had hired it's mayor from the smaller city of Breslau when they saw what capable mayor he had made in BreSlau.
 There were three ways, MT Ray mond said in conclusion, of getting al these desirable changes, and it was over which one to choose that the split usually came in discussing this sub ject. The eitytmight get a new char ter, there might be the consolidation of the town and city governments, or 1t might be by the commission plan. He explained briefly the main points of difference in each of these.

NERVOUS DYSPEPSIA
If You Have It, Read This Letter, The Lee & OsgoOd Co. Guar
 antees Mi-O-na

T was taken last August with a se- were stomach trouble. The doctor said it was nervous dyspepsia He gave me medicine for that. took his treatment four weeks, didn't feel any better at the end of four weeks than did when I commenced taking his medicine. I took everything heard of. The first day of December, 1908, I got box of Mi-o-na. I took them that afternoon and the next day and haven't had one bit of pain in my stomach since the 2nd of December. I took five. boxes. Feel well now, sleep good-that is something haven't done in a number of years Mrs. M. E. Maxfeld, R. F.. D. 2, Avoca. IN. Y., June g. 1909.

gest some remedies. On the side of advantages were, first, the admirable water privileges furnishing power. It was these that first attracted the set- tiers from Saybrook, where they had to get along with wfndmills for power to grind their grain. The recent ex- tension of trolley lines had made this great trolley center, in fact, the largest in eastern Connecticut, and this was a considerable factor in our favor. Norwich was a banking center as we'll having seven strong financial institutions, the second largest sav- ings bank in the state, and there were twenty-five millions on deposit in Nor wich banks. A big farming country behind Norwich contributed to the im- .portanee of its financial institutions, and since the failure of a Willimantic bank some years ago many people from that city now do their banking in Norwich. The Thames river, with a twelve foot channel, was anothar impor- tant asset, which was not half used for the benefit of,the city, largely be-
 cause the ownership of the river banks
