u SALARY FOR THE INTENpANr,-We
arc credibly informed that the town
council recently passed a resolution
suggesting that tho intendant shall
hereafter receive q stated salary of
$3.50 per annum. The mattor ia
left for the determination of the
in-coming council. Wo trust this
measure will be adopted. The office
of intendant is necessarily attend~
ed with considerable care,
labor and responsibility, and
it seems to us nothing but
simple justice that the citizen
who devotes large share of his
time to tho interests Of the town
should receive some adequate COM
pensation. The additional expense
involved.in the changerecommended
by the present council IS very small,
and the additional cost to each tax
payer will be almost inconsiderable.
we are strongly in favor of the
measure. 1t might DO well for the
matter to be brought up for discus
SION at the public meeting this
afternoon, SO an to haye beforehand
some expression of the views of tho
taxpayers.
