.ITINERANT vENDER
LAW IN WATERBURY
Unconstitutional

Waterbury, Dec. 30.-There will be
no more arrests of itinerants by the
police for failing to- secure peddlers'
licenses. Supt. Beach has decided this
matter, and SO stated to-day follow ng
a decision given in the City Court yes
terday morning. He notified the City
Clerk of the decision, and also said
that he would instruct all policemen
to ignore the ordinance. in the future.
In the City court. yesterday morn
ing Judge P. J. Mcmahon sustained
the demurrer filed by Attorney Wal
lace S. Moyle of New Haven, and this
means that SO far as the City Court
is concerned, the city ordinance re-
lating to common peddlerS, is uncOn-
stitutional Attorney Moyle filed the
demurrer in connection with the cases
of Charles Mckinley. Charles john
son, Frank Kelly and Alfred Lang,
each charged with violating the or
dinance. They were arrested while
selling rugs, going from house TO
torney Moyle was secured as counsel,
and when the case came up in the
City Court last week he made the
claims that the ordinance was clearly
unconstitutional.
'"The city of Waterbury taxes peo-
pie from Cheshire Or Naugatuck,. or
Seymour or any other town four
times as much to distribute wares in
Waterbury. as it does people residing
in the city" the lawyer said. "It de-
MES equal ty of treatment to the citi-
zens of the state of Connecticut, and
that part of the city ordinance is
purely unconstitutional" The de-
murrer filed stated that the city had
no right to charge an out-of-town
resident four times the amount charg-
ed local residents for the same priv
ilege and that the ordinance should
be declared unconstitutional.
AS result of Judge McMahon's de-
c'sion. the Board of Aldermen VIII in
all probability get busy and fix up the
ordinance sos that there will be no
question in regard to its legality and
so that it will be impossible for peo-
pie to come in here from out of town
and sell goods from house to hca'se
without securing licenses. The four
men arrested Mckinley. Johnson.
Kelly and Lang. were representa- yes
of a Norwalk rug firm, and they were
arrested for not having licenses. 1t
is claimed that they were allowed to
go right on selling rugs after their
cases had been continued to this week,
and it is said that they resumed their
search for buyers of floor coverings
right after court this morning.

ago in London during the coal strike.

whole lot of mystery is being
made over an advertisement which
appeared in several of the newspapers
the other day asking for information
concerning the location Of a safe de-
post box, in which the late Freder- ok
Beghard, one of New York's most pol
ished handles of a generation ago is
supposed to have secreted a bundle
of valuable securities. Of the vast
fortune the deceased was believed to
have at the time of his death, only
$4,000 has been found to date. Friends
and relatives of Gerhard say that it
is impossible that he could have dis
pated his fortune, although recog-
nizing that he was one Of the most
lavish spenders that this town has had
in half century. They suspect that
he had a strong box somewhere, and
it is to develop it's whereabouts that
the advertisement was inserted. The
search for the missing stocks recalls
to mind the strenuous career led by
Gerhard in those halcyon days of
yore when he was paying siege to
Lille Langtry, the famous English
beauty who capt.vated the late King
Edward with her good looks when the
monarch was the Prince of Wales.
Never a day passed without the Jer-
sey Lille received from Gerhard, who
was madly infatuated with her for
several years, remembrance of some
sort, varying from a ring, to a jew
eled necklace or a huge box Of orchids
Or American beauty roses. Toward
the end he gave up these divertise-
mentS and settled down to a more or
less prosaic life Up to the last. how
ever, he remained the most carefully
dressed man in New York, without
ever affect ng the dilletante sartOrial

SALARIES NoT FEES.

While the EVENING NEWS is in
hearty accord with the Board of AL
dermen in giving the city attorney
more money, as we stated Wednes,
day, would 1t not be better to give
the Office a stated salary in keeping
with the duties required and abolish
fees entirely? The fee system has
always proven unsatisfactory and
has cost the people a great deal more
than if a liberal salary were paid.
The city engineers ONCE is a strik-
ing example of this. A few years
ago the engineer was paid on a fee
basis. 1t was found that he was
getting from $1,000 to $4,000 a
year in this way. A salary was fixed
at $4,000 a year, which made the Of
flee a lucrative n and, at the same
time, saved money for the people.
Within the past few years the fee
system has been abolished in the
offices of county clerk and the sur
rogate's Office. This has been found
to be a great saving to the taxpayers.
The tendency everywhere is to
abolish fees and put. the public off,
Gals on a direct salary basis. Then
everybody knows just what to expect.
All admit that the city attorney
should get more than 5000. But
whatever he does get should be 8
fixed sum. The aldermen would dc
well to take this point into consid.

ApPoINrMENT oF JUDGES.

Middlesex county is greatly inter-
ested in the stand Governor Wilson
will take in connection with the ap-
pointment of county judges. AL
ready a movement has been started
to have Judge Lyon ~reappointed. The
fact that such a thing is even sug-
gested shows how the people regard
Woodrow Wilson. He is looked up
on as an Independent man, capable
of doing his own thinking and in
v~estigating. He said on the stump
that he would be governor of the
whole people, if elected. He fur
Their said he would take into consul
tation men in different sections who
are not affiliated with any organi-
cation. If Mr.. Wilson lives up to
these declarations, and there Is every
reason to believe he will, he surely
will be a different kind of governor.
The Trenton Times is responsible
for the statement that Governor
elect Wilson, 1t is said, will pay par
ticular attention to the past affilia-
lions of lawyers who are recon-
mended to him for appointment to
county judgeships. If he has not
already declared that intention. he
certainly will, as a fair-minded ex-
ecutive, do so as soon as he finds an
opportunity to look over the field
and learn the history of some of the

ent, will appoint a man of his own
party to office. But the condition
in Middlesex may persuade him to
