Ilousatonic Valley Milk Pro
ducers
MEET AT NEW MILFORD TO TALK OVER
THE SITUATION. ORGANIZATION OF
ALL THE MEN WHO Ft'KNl-H MILK FOR
TUE NEW YORK MARKET HOPED FOR,
The meeting of the milk producers of
the Ilousatonic Valley, called at the
Town ball at New Mllfotd, Tuesday af
ternoon, was attended by about 40 of the
well known milk producers of the valley
The object of the meeting was to get an
expression on ibe proposed formation of
the Five Sta.es Milk Producers' Associ
ation and have this road represented.at a
meeting held in New York January 6, to
consider the plan.
The plan of this new organization as
near as could be ascertained is to thor
ougt ly organize the milk producers on
all lines of railroad out of New York
City. When the association is thorough
ly organized, the object should be not or
ly to fix the price of rr ilk in co-operation
with the buyers of milk, but its objects
should also be to furnUh any necessary
supply of milk from existing milk-ship
ping territory, to mitigate the evils of
the surplus to the utmost, to insure bet
ter care by peddlers in distribution of
milk, to co-operate with reliab e dealer
and peddlers so that the city end of the
business may be put in better condition
It is also proposed that the association
shall co-operate with the health authori
ties to prevent adulteration and to Insure
absolutely pure milk to consumers. It id
believed that with certain reforms In tbe
trade that may be tbe outgrowth of this
movement, consumers will be insured of
an abundance of good and pure milk
without any Increase in price, but some
of the expenses and losses between the
consume, and the farmer can be curtail
ed so that tbe producer may get a some
what better price for milk than has been
the case of late.
Although the meeting v. as called for 1
o'clock, tbe farmers were slow in assem
bling. Newtown was largely represent
ed, and nearly all the milk stations bad
some representative.
By the talk of those present it was
plain to be seen that the farmers thirjlt
that they are imposed upon in the milk
business, and they thick right, and ate
willing to enter into most any arrange
ment that will better existing condition?.
The meeting waited before organizing f cr
E. G. Seeley of Roxbury, who has al
ways been a leader in the milk business,
but be did not come. His brother, Ben
lamln Seeley of Washington came in
about 2 o'clock and at tbe request cf
those present he took tbe chair and Ed
ward Marsh was chosen secretary. Mr
Seeley made some pithy remarks pictur
ing the sad state the milk business bad
arrived at and urged organization of tbe
producers, for they could if they would
unitedly say what its future should be.
A general discussion followed without
formulating any definite plan of action
but it was finally agreed to send Messrs
Benjamin and E. G. Seeley to the New
York meeting, with the backing of those
present, to make such arrangements for
this road as would better the farmers, if
possible, and pledge their support to any
movement that would form an organiza
tion whose aim was such attainment. A
sum of money waa raised for necessary
expenses and the farmers will meet again
at the call ot this committee to hear what
was accomplished at the New York
meeting. A good many large producers
have their "Ire" up at the treatment they
have been receiving and the prices paid.

THE BEE BUZZ.
A GOOD CITIZEN HAS THE RIGFJT TO PRO
TEST AGAINST THE DEGRADING INFLU
ENCES OF STREET DRAWLS AND Mil
NIGHT REVELRY.
Does it ever occur to people who, vio
late tbe law that la so doing tbey are
trampling oo tbe rights arid privileges of
the law-abiding? ; Who is it that makes
the law? Is it not the majority of tbe
people, by their representatives? .
The law ot tbe commonwealth is the
expression of the will of the people. The
law 1 j the practical rule of conduct which
embodies thejeommon serse and moral
conviction of the cnntrollirg power of
the community. Obedience to the law is
the simplest duty of every citizen, be
cause every one U bound by the law.
The law Is made tor the greatest good of
all. It is a common and mutual benefit.
It is a rule of conduct which every good
citizen holds sacred for tbe sake of bis
own greatest good as well as for the good
of others. The law insures the safety
and happiness of every one who obeys it,
by punishing those who violate it. The
law is the foundation of government;
and government, in this country at least,
Is a mutual agreement to live together in
peace and harmony. When a man vio
lates the law be breaks tbe social com
pact ; and be deserves and ought to suf
fer the penalty of the law, because he
has wronged his neighbor and offended
against the moral sense of the commun
ity.
Tbe law is therefore for the law-abid
Ing and against the lawless. The law
protects tbe sober man against the drunk
en The peaceable man has a right to go
up and down the streets unmolested and
without being annoyed by disorderly per
sons. A good citizen has the right to
proteet against tbe degrading influences
of street brawls and miduight revelry
More than that he is not a good citizen if
he does not make it bis willing duty to
protest against whatever lawlessness dis
honors the homes and public highways
of the town. It is my right and my duty
to claim the protection of tbe law, for
myself, and my family, and for the sake
of the common good, against every abuse
and degrading practice; and it is a sad
comment on tbe manhood and woman
hood of any community in which tbe
law-abiding citizen is exposed to insult
and personal abuse because he dares to
rebuke the desecration of the holy day
and the disturbing of the peace and quiet
of hi3 own home.
Are we governed and protected by the
law of tbe state in this town? Or are we
subject to tbe lawless mandates of the
moo t I nave been threatened with vio
lence ror doing my duty as a public ser
vant, and it has been intimated to me
that I have sometimes been in danger of
being mobbed. I spurn the idea as tbe
cowardly insinuation of the criminal
against the honor and peace of the Chris
tian community. Let us see. O. O
Wright. "
A FEW BEMABK3 AS TO THE PROPOSED
CHABQ&3 IB THE TICISITY OF Z0AR
BUDGE
wnen anything interesting comes
along, we always want to "put our foot
in it." Henry Ward Beecher said that
he never saw "two in love but he wished
that be was one ofHbem!" We are not so
selfish as that. We remember pretty
well for tbe last half century that tbe vi
cinity of Z ar Bridge has been many
times an interesting place in consequence
of the "mad Housatonlc" and the' low
outlay of tbe river road by our forefath
ers. Immediate necessity was the law
then, except that in the layout of a road
away from rivers they started for the top
of every hill instead of going around it,
not thinking that the bail ot a kettle was
the same distance, up or down. Now the
dam to be built to' generate electrical
power and may be, for other purposes.
will necessitate the building of a road for
the public where it should have been
built In the first place, above high water
mark. If built above Ziar Bridge there
will be no necessity of raising the bridge,
if below the bridge, 25 feet certain will
be required. If tbe dam Is built 30 feet
high It will set back water to Bennett's
Bridge in great ice floods, Samuel Post
thinks. Tbe fall from tide water to Ben
nett's Bridge is 180 feet. The difference
of a mile or so in the building above or
below the Bridge, is this: Above the
Bridge it would probably be a protection
to the bridge, and the water and ice
would cover the plain and set back to
Loveland'a Mill, on Half Way River. If
the dam is built below Zoar Bridge John
Stowe's place, French's blacksmith shop,
the Dillon place, the Methodist church
and cemetery, will be useless except for
the purpose of the builders of the dam.
So also would be the Bassett place, and
R. S. Hinman's. But of course we have
no suggestions to make as to location ex
cept to submit to the Inevitable, and re-
move the "bones" that (Shakespeare's
curse forbids. George Bradley and Abl-
iab, . his brother, removed some 50
years ago, their dear ones' remains to
high land in Half Way River. George
Bradley often said that the cemetery
would sometime be washed out. The
Oatman place was wiped out by a ter
rible freshet long before the Housatoalc
dam was built; When we read Mr Ha
inan's article in Tax Newtown Bee we
thought t&e remark a little flippant, bat

whole if he with others in this exposure
to the mad freaks of the Housatoaic
should, with the "great msjority," re
ceive benefit it is all right. But it is well
to remember that London and many clt
ies "unknown" lie buried under other
cities, some of them recently discovered
near the Euphrates, buried 30 feet by the
city on top. As to the loss of the Meth
odist church, there is not an average at
tendance of six In a meeting once in two
weeks, but a church is necessary to ev
ery cemetery. A cemetery which is in
accessible in ice floods should tie remov
ed, dam or no dam. We remember that
on two or three occasions, ceffias have
been carried through the woods and
brush to get to tbe narrowest place to be
hauled over in boat or on planks, to the
last resting place." Well, let us have
light, eyen if we have to go back and see
"trees walking." Some one not conver
sant with this vicinity has sent "going
the rounds that an old landmark" has
been removed at Zoar Bridge. The
"landmark" was at Squontuc, about five
miles below, and was not a very valu
able building in the neighborhood. The
"landmarks" at Zoar Bridge have all
been removed by water, that have been
removed, and it looks now as if "water"
would remove more. G. W. Bradley.
DEATH OF DAHIEL HABBIGAB.
Daniel Harrigan, after an illness of
four weeks of pleurisy, died at his resi
dence on Walnut Tree Hill, Saturday
Tne deceased was 54 years of age, came
to this country 35 years ago from Ireland
and has always been a resident of this
town. He was a very industrious man
and was employed in the rubber factory
until his last illness. ' He was a good
neighbor and was liked by every ore.
The funeral was largely attended from
his late residence, Monday morning, to
St Rose's church at 11 a. m , where a re
quiem mass was celebrated by Father
Crowley of New Milford. Miss Marga
ret Burke of New Haven presided at the
organ and during the offertory Miss M.
T. Callahan rendered beautifully "Jesus
Saviour of My Soul." The, deceased is
survived by a wife and five children, Mrs
W. H. Keane, Misses Kate, Miry and
Celia Harrigan of Bridgeport and Tim
othy Hartigan of this town. One broth
er, Patrick Harrigan, and two sisters,
Mrs Lawrence O'Connell and Mrs Kate
McMahon of Danbury also survive. The
pall bearers were Edward Egan, John
Kane, John Finnell, John Campbell, Pat
rick O'Dea and Michael McMahon.
SCHOOL BOiED VOTES TO (UO?E THEPALF
WAY SIVEB SCHOOL.
Section 196 of the Connecticut school
laws, says, '" When the number of schol
ars In any district for any term ot school
shall be so small that in the judgment of
the school visitors the maintenance of a
separate school in said district for such
term is inexpedient, said board of school
visitors may unite the school of such dis
trict with tbe school of an adjoining dis
trict or districts, and when the school of
any district shall thus be united with the
school of another district or districts, it
shall be as full a compliance with the law
as if said district had maintained a separ
ate school for the time required by law."
Acting under that section of the school
laws, the board of school visitors at a
meeting held last . Saturday, voted to
close the school In Half Way River dis
trict for the term commencing January
4, 1897,and give the privilege to the chil
dren of that district to attend school in
Gray's Plain district. They also voted
that children of the Ziar district could
no longer attend school in Gray's Plain
district.

KOHDATEYXnVO,
There are two- things In connection
with tbe singing of the New York Male
Quartet Company, who are to give the
concert next Monday evening, January
11, at the Town ball, which are well
worthy of note. One is the marvelous
blending of the voices. Their ensemble
is perfect; they aing In sympathy' with
each other and with the piece which
they Interpret. The other thing Is the
character of the selections. . There Is
nothing which you afterwards wish bad

repertoire ot tbe s'nsrs are far above

company in almost every concert have
to respond with encores to every number
on their program ; the audience will not

other musical surprises are well vorth

THOSE OTHER AYEES-
The J. C. Ayer Co., of Lowell, Mass.,
hag no monopoly of the name of Ayer,
and does not wish to have. But it is
sometimes unfortunate, that the world
wide familarity with tbe name of the J.
C. Ayer Co., makes people jump at the
conclusion that there are no other Ayers.
This is especially unfortunate when these
other Ayers are In the medicine business
and their goods get mixed up in the pepu
lar.mind with the record and reputation
that has been built up by the J. C. Ayer
Co., in the course of half a century. Of
course it is not the fault of these other
Ayers, that people make such mistakes
But they do make them and they write
to the J. C. Ayer Co., letters asking all
sorts of questions about these other
Ayers which the J. C. Ayer Co., cannot
answer because it does not know who
these other Avers are. As a case in
point, some industrious people are
establishing agencies for the sale of Dr
Ayer'a Pastilles. People taking agencies
have to buy goods and pay money, and
somehow the golden profits (so the
agents say) do not materialize. This Dr
Ayer is one of the other Ayers. Tbe J.
C. Ayer Co. does not manufacture pas
tilles, does not establish agencies nor
collect money in this way. The only
thing, therefore, that the J. C. Ayer Co.
can do, Is to publish tbe fact that it is
some other Ayer engaged in the pastille
business. The J. C. Ayer Co. manufac
tures the world-famous Sarsaparilla,
Cherry Pectoral, Ayer'a Pills, Hair Vigor
and Ague Cure. Nothing else. Perhaps
in case of doubt as to the identity of the
firm, it might be well to write to the J
C. Ayer Co. before taking an agency or
paying out money to some other Ayer.
