MIR, CO0DSELL CHARGES MAYOR WITH INCONSISTENCY
 IN HERRING SEWER PROJECT
Mr. Goodse Cannot Consent Under These Circumstances, to Remain As Member of Administration and Resigns From the Board of Apportionment and Taxation That He May More Freely Express His Views.

Hon. Zalmon Goodsell signified his opposition to the amended plans for the Herring sewer system, yesterday, in a letter to Mayor wilson, convey ing his disappointment at the Mayors contradictory attitude toward the Her ing project, and his resignation from the Board of Apporttonment and Tax ation.
 MT. Goodselrs letter, in which he ex- presses his views with frankness, is as follows:
 Honorable Clifford B. Wilson, Mayor.
 My Dear SIT:
 As Alderman you voted against the adoption of the Herring sewer system, consequently, at one time, you cer- tainIy must have been. convinced that the Herring sewer system was in, mo- wise needed in Bridgeport.
 In my former commun1 cation to you upon this important sewer question, because of this vote, I was justified in asking you to have action delayed in having sewer contracts awarded, believing the same would meet with your hearty approval.
 After receiving my communication, you allowed the Paving Commission to make contracts for building dou-

Alaskan Gold Seeker
 Returns Home Broke
George Belcher Tells Q the Story of His Experience in A1aska-Tramps for Home.
(special to The Farmer.l

Stratford, Jan. 4-An unkempt look
 ing man stopped at a house in Main
 street, yesterday afternoon. and asked
 for something to eat, He said he
 had just returned from Alaska and
 was on hfs way to his home in Wa
 terbury. He carried a heavy pack
 of five years of privation in that frozen country. He said he was glad
 to get back to Gods Country, and
 warned young men who get the bug to
 dig for gold to stay at home. He
 hesitated when asked his name, but
 finally said it was George V. Belcher,
 which may be fictitious Belcher is
 nsTt ns1ut ns 30 bss gears .0ed 0d He looked the of good education and appeared to be honest and earnest. When pressed for further information concerning that far off territory of Uncle Sam,
 "I had several hundred dollars when I got the gold bug fever. and went to Alaska to dig gold. There never was worse fooled man in the world. Now I am trying to get back home and go to work again under decent conditions. The prospects for a man in that country have been very much overrated. I spent all my money in prospecting and then had to go to work. Of course I got b6g money, $5 to $7 per day, but the fabulous hear of the big fortunes made by men who went to Alaska, but you don't hear of the thousands who go broke up there and die of the privations which are something fearful when you get away from the main lines of travel. don't see how I ever got through aTve- Finally I managed to work back toward civilization After reaching Seattle I thought I would be satisfied, but I got the home bug and it has taken me two months to get this far. I have walked hundreds of miles with a heavy pack on my back T TIT erlo I'm within 50 miles of home? Well, guess. Alaska is fit only for Eskimos and polar bears to live in. It's no place for a white man. The cold is something fierce. It's awful could, but it's Hell just the same, Hell double fried down and amaIgamated. | It's the best place in the world to keep away from"
 BeIcher thanked his host for a liberal l handout, and shouldering his pack started off up the road toward Shel- | ton with long strides and vigorous i steps which showed that he had seen i service on the road.

ble sewer system in Dewey street without effective protest. This san- itary sewer finally contracted for by the commission, is so small in size in comparison to the present trunk sewer already partially laid in Dewey. street under the Scofield plan, that the dream of a greater Bridgeport, espe- cially in the northwest section of the city, seems like the height of folly if its future growth depends upon ann pie sewer facilities.
 All the economies you have planned for saving money for the city of Bridgeport in conducting it's business, multiplied fifty times over, will not make good in comparison to the great future outlay and cost you have all lowed to become a part of your ad- ministration by this one act in let ting the entering wedge or adoption of this unwarranted double sewer sys- tenn to be made.
