Concerning Village Affairs.

Editor Of Vermont Wdtchman As the
press is the best medium of informing the
people, hope you will pardon a few words
from me. The voters know that we have
three boards of officers in this village-the
selectmen, bailifs and water board-eaCh
acting independently of the other, and
sometimes coming in conflict. The select
men and street commissioners have charge
of the streets, and drains for the surface
water; the bailiffs have charge of the drains
for houses and the sidewalks, and the water
board has the absolute control of water.
The result is that each board tries to throw
all the work and expense on the others,
thereby making it appear that it is the eco
nomical board, and when the people want
some improvement made or service per-
formed they are referred to the other boards.
So people wonder, and call the officials
pretty names. Such has been the practice
for so long that it brings a great amount of
work into this year, and when bills come in
at the annual meeting they will think they
are big. There will be more sewer pipe
laid this year than in any two years previous
All know it is necessary, and all know that
the sidewalks all over the village need re-
newing. The policy has been TO patch up
for to-day, not looking for the future, or
the effect on visitors and those that are
looking for a place to locate. As | have
charge of the sidewalks and sewers, l shall
try to work for the best advantage of all;
but the voters must expect TO have some
bills to pay. The work of former years
sometimes has to be done over again, and
as each board works to a certain extent
against the others the work is neglected or
half done. | did not understand the condi-
ton of affairs when | got into office, and
presume there are others in the same situa-
tion. | write this so that they may have
little charity toward the bailiffs, and not
say that they are the most extravagant
board the village ever had. One man did
not want a sewer because, as he said, the
sewage of Baltimore runs above ground in
the cutters, and that was the best way.
Hoping this will stir the people up to find a
way to remedy the existing state of things,
| am yours for the advancement and i'm
provement of the village of Montpelier,
II. G. WEBSTER.
