The annual town meeting was held Tues

result of the coalition, this year, has given

A tax of hfty cents on the dollar was
voted. The voters and tax payers refused
to levy larger tax. Perhaps it is enough.
Judging from the past it is ample. In
1874, the town voted only a fifty cent tax,
ana the end OF the year, according 10 the
selectmen's report, found US with an in
creased Indebtedness of only sirteen dollars
and sirty-secen cents. Last year, we had
seventy-6ve cent tax, and our Indebtedness
increased during the year nearly fifteen
thousand dollars. If we are to form
judgment from these facts, we arc better

Vermont delights to honor, representatives
of the intelligence and integrity of Yer

be in better business than assisting in

to suspend his collegiate course in 1884,
thus delaying his graduation. 1t was at
