In this eorrsspondenee . week ago something was written of the liquor license question that is to be voted upon in New London for the first time in many years at the coming election, and suggestion was made that it was about time for the liquor men to come to the front and center and tell their side of the case. as it was very poor question that had but one side. Since then 1t Is plain that the license advo- eates realize that it Is time to put up a fight and they seem to be doing it by newspaper advertising, which Is a very effective way. Say what they will and do what they may. it is about time the advocates of no-license real ized that 1t is purely a political ques- tion and ought to be treated as such by the newspapers. It would be sure death to have the newspaper. advertis- ing on this political matter all one sided, and no one knows this better than the professional anti-saloonist.

New London. Sept. 21.-No resident of New London has taken as much active interest in the affairs Of the city as Former Governor Thomas M Waller, for as matter of fact no man has covered such a long period Of usefulness In public affairs. There are old men in the city today, that Is, men of say sixty-five, who in their youthful days knew MT; Waller as the Boy Orator." and have known htrn ever since not only as an orator, but as a politician of the highest or der. always a leader in whatever he undertakes, and always with a large following. Although now seventy eight years of age his mind is just as keen as ever. his natural wit has rever failed him, and his persuasive powers with voice and quill remain just as forceful as ever Within the year he has taken part in the town meetings with just as much activity as in the old days. when the people would follow his beck and nod, SO to speak The gentleman has never lost his cunning in matters public, and he commands the attention when he speaks or writes.

However, the conditions in regard to the increase in pay of tho asses sors is that they devote all their time to the work of assessing property and all that pertains to their duties. That is the three assessors are to be on duty every day. If they do this. the work of the clerk ought to be some
 what frightened. The present incum- bent has held the office since it's crea- tions and therefore ought to be fla n1iliar with the work that he has himself outlined. He is elected by popular vote and no democrat has been nominated in the past that could give him any kind of run for his money, especially as has had the back ing of several fraternal organizations. It so happens that the democratic nominee to be balloted for in the com ing city election, Is also some '.jiner" and there may be a split in this vote. Such a thing has happened in New London, when a city officials pay has been raised when his term ended, but defeat came on election day and the other fellow stepped into office and received the increased salary.

Only s short time ago he made a patriotic speech in the open in Hart ford, with fully much vigor as in that memorable but unsuccessful cam paign in the old Third district when he was the democratic nominee for congress. He travelled from place to place in the district, and made speeches by night and by day. with Dick Morris acting as the advance agent It's a mighty slow, one-s1ded city meeting in New London when Mir. Waller does not happen to be present. He stepped into the flood light the other day when he came out with a communication in 8 local newspaper in which he condemned the present method of fixing the rate of tax at the meeting when annual ap- propriations are made, rather than when the grand list is fixed by the assessors. As it Is now the city votes the appropriations and the rate of tax, and then the assessors fix property valuation to raise an amount suff1- cient to meet the appropriations. This he claims is a wrong method and 1t Is about time a change is made. Whether he will advocate such a plan in city meeting is an open question. For sometimes men. even of the cali bre of MT. Waller, do not always practice what they preach, or write. Such a change could be made in city meeting, or else MT. Waller would intimate that 1t could be In public print.

Mr. Waller also publicly prociaims his objection to having the salaries of the assessors raised to 5000 each, or more than three times as much as when he was the mayor, and double what it was a year ago. He declares that the job as 1t is performed is not worth that money. but hs does not even hint at the $500 raise in the salary of clerk to the assessors which will make the pay $500 a year, the very best political job in the city, and It Is that and nothing more. When that office was created it was with the idea that it would be filled by civil engineer, who would make a survey of every piece of real estate in the city. and to collect all infor- matfon that was required by the as sessors- In fact do all the work of the assessors, who then received a salary Of $500 each for a couple of months work at the most.
