TOWN HOME
Herald Reader Discusses Condi-
lions and E,-AIayor Curtis.

lions anu Es-AiayOr Curtis,
After recalling reading In the New
Britain news OF yesterdays issue OF
first article relates TO remarks by our
former mayor. orson II. Curtis. Az
ter reading this article | felt that u
was about time that some of our big
ger men in this good city of ours open
up some of their organ pipes and
make known to the city OF New Brit
ain and Its inhabitants that they are
tired of cheap politicians, who from
time to time, make their appearance
In the paper columns much In very
detrimental way. and 1t Is Il slur on
1 the population of our community. Let
me add by asking our beloved Orson
| T.. Curtis, when he was mayor of the
city of New Britain, why he did not
stop the wind from blowing through
the windows OF the Town Home by
putting in ~ new sash or new glass
which was probably broken? Why he
did not build new floors to take the
place of the present ones, which arc
so worn out that when you cross them
you think you are going to the floor
below? Why he did not install new
posts to make the veranda (Which Is
occupied by many of the unfortunate
nnates) safe and not leave 1t in its
present unsafe condition? Why did
not he. check up the heating SYSTEM,
while mayor of the city for four years
and not come out in print with this
statement: $50 far as ] know the
heating system was adequate"
There are a great many more of
the Curtis timber, at present In both
political parties. that attempt to gov
err over this city where many of our
population pay high taxes; and when
you check up the material that is
represented by politicians and add up
as a whole the amount OF taxes they
nay the city Of New Britain it is abb
solutely joke. 70 my feeling 1t is
time that the business men and manu-
facturers of our city bring candidates
from their own field who are not only
educated in common sense but who
are capable Of looking after the wants
that the members OF our council
should be able to give in the position
they aspire.
1t would be well for some OF them
to read the subject recently given by
Nicholas Murray Butler, who Is presi-
dent of Columbia college, wherein he
states that the republicans who con
structed liberalism" will surely win
out; but beware OF wild politicians
AS candidates for any office as they |
