The Street Improvement.

As per announcement the road meeting
was held in the Town Hall Friday even
ing, January %, which was largely attend
ed to take into consideration the propriety
Of extending the present plan Of street i'm
provement to the corporation line the
present year. Mayor Couch was called to
the chair and NJ. W. Lang chosen Scc'y.
The chair then stated the object of the
meeting. In the spring of 1889 the coun-
cil decided upon the present plan Of street
improvement which has been paid for
from the amount levied for road purposes
each year and up to the present time one
mile. and a fourth had been laid at cost
Of $4,000, and there yet remains one mile
and half to be laid to reach the corpora
tion line on the four main roads each way
from the square. The plan has been each
year to borrow the money for present use
and pay interest upon il until II was re-
ceiyed by the corporation treasurer in
February and August. The plan pursued
has caused the council good deal of ex
ira trouble, aside from being an expensiv,
luxury in the way of paying interest. AL
that could be raised each year by taxation
for road purposes could not exceed 81,
thousand dollars and in this way the i'm
provement could not be completed unit
1892, and under the present law levy "a
exceed $4,000 could not be levied the pres
year as the council are not authorized t
borrow money in anticipation Of a lev,
until all previous obligations are settled
which will not be until the last half Of III,
tax for 1890 is paid in June, and we will
not receive our portion Of il until August
