The protracted meeting at Patapsco NJ. E..

Considerable discussion is now rife among
our citizens concerning the special school law
for Carroll county, and so far as your cores
pondent is able to judge the taxpayers gener-
ally oppose the bill, not, however, that they
are opposed to education, but the idea is pre-
valent that the educational advantages deriv
ed by the children is too dearly bought when
the large expenditures, the interest manifest
ed by those who should be most concerned,
and the very low average attendance of pupils
are considered. If the people are to have
additional school taxes precipitated upon
them ever and anon to make up deficiencies,
from whatever cause they may occur and
be compelled to pay the same, would it not
be proper to enact a compulsory clause as
the ADVOCATE suggested in its last issue?

City Council procssainss.

The Mayor and Common Council met on
Monday evening, and all the members were
present.
The complaints against the Gas Company
for insufficient light, made prior to last meeting
and referred to said Company, were replied
to by Mr.. Cunningham, who stated that the
Company had tried to carry ont their contract
in good faith, but that where so many lamps
were concerned it was almost impossible to
keep all in good condition at all times; that
water condensed in the pipes sometimes froze;
that at TINES. for unaccountable reasons,
burners in good condition one night would be
out of repair The next; and that many lamps
were carele sly or maliciously broken, and
that they would redouble their efforts to make
everything satisfactory in the future. The
Council thanked Mr.. Cunningham for his
reply and assurances.
The commission appointed to assess the
damages and benefits in widening Carroll
street reported their proceedings to the Coun-
ell, which report was read On motion it was
received, accepted and placed on file.
