Under the present gov- ernment, voters can oust any of the city employees for malfeasance of of- flee should these employees fail to perform their duties to the satisfc- tion of the mayor, the peoples rep resentative. Under the merit system, 1t would be necessary to go to court to get rid of an employe who failed to serve the best interests of the city,"
 From the economic standpoint, it was charged that the merit system already has failed to cut costs :n the state government and that its tenure is problematical after Mo- vember, 1888. The payroll of merit system office employees was reported a major item in costs of govern nent for the fiscal year. Dissatis- faction with workings of the sys- tenn is said to be general at the capital.
 Further, the merit plan opponents claim that operation of the plan To- cally would tend to destroy all pow CT of the elective officers of the city to the extent that Waterbury, &C., tually, would have 8 city manager form of government with control in the hands of 8 group, acting as agents for a political minority.
 Meanwhile, proponents of the scheme are claiming that 8 court order will be forthcoming tomorrow when the hearing on the writ of mandamus is held before Judge Ed win c. Dickenson in the superior court. This order, they allege, will force the merit system proposal onto the voting machines.

Operation of the state merit sys- tenn plan will make necessary the complete reorganization of the for- est fire fighting system of the state forestry department, according to information coming from Hartford. District fire ward and deputy dis trict fire wards must, under the merit system, give up their jobs or withdraw from local politics.
 Wardens receive $l0 a year for their services, while deputy war dens receive 60 cents an hour for the time spent in actual fighting of forest fires. With these purely nom- inal wages, the wardens and depu- ties will feel no qualms about giv- ing up those posts rather than lose present town jobs which they hold.
 Of the 138 fire wardens in the state, a majority are town officials of some sort. Many are constables others are selectmen, and more hold other town positions. Under the merit system they must give up those jobs if they wish to re- main with the state forestry de- partment fire fighting service.
 "They won't give up a town job to be a fire warden" reclared State Forester Austin Hawes few days ago. Tt only pays $l0 a year"
 Forester Hawes IS sending notice soon to all fire wardens notifying them officially that the state merit system makes 1t impossible for then to be reappointed Jan. 1 if they TUT for town ofiice. He will inform tht wardens that he has received rul- ing from the attorney general and director of personnel that fire war dens and deputies come under the classified service in the state merit system.
