CENTRAL FALLS.
No sewer For Dexter Street Now-Tho
Volunteer" Confident.


Volunteer" Confident.
Ii is a fact to be deplored that sewer
cannot be built on Dexter street until the
problem of disposing OF the sewerage is
solved
Surface water could be run into the
Moshassuck river, but the town would not
be allowed to drain sewerage In the river.
There is no place at present to drain 1t to,
and there the matter stands.
1t would not pay TO put In sewer for
surface water only, and it would not be
good investment, as Mr.. Andrew said, to
spend thousands OF dollars in putting
sewer in now while the street Is being
and then probably find that II was not pu.
in right.
VIII Win IA Prize.
All of the admirers OF the Volunteer are
willing to wager any amount that the
machine will bring home one OF the prizes
from Cottage City next Wednesday.
Not few feel sure that the first prize
will come TO Central Falls and all say that
IL the Volunteer does not get II the one
that does will have to do some tall squirt
ing.
The machine looks almost too pretty to
take into contest, but besides being
thing OF beauty II possesses strength and
far as any engine.
The Special Meeting.
Next Tuesday afternoon a special meet
ing OF the taxpayers will be held in the
Town House to remedy a mistake made
at the meeting of March 10, when II was
voted to bond the debt of the town and
issue 100000 worth OF the same. The
vote taken does not agree with the action
OF the General Assembly and therefore
there was trouble about disposing OF the
bonds.
Peck Bros. ~ Co. OF Boston bought all
of the bonds, paying si,0l9 premium for
them, but refused to close the bargain
until the technical point was made right.
Foreign" Corporations.
1t is amusing to hear some men speak
| OF the Interstate Street Railway Company
| as a "foreign" company and say that they
What are the Business Mems Associa-
tions OF the country trying to do9 They
| are trying to induce what certain men
term "foreign" corporations to locate in
| their town or city.
| They do this to boom the place, to build
| II, to make work for those that are idle,
and II thereis not help enough to bring
other people there.
The Interstate is not foreign corpor-
alton any more than the Pawtucket Street
Railway Company is. Thirty-five per
cent OF the stock of the latter company
is owned by the Union Railroad Company
| OF Providence.
There is nothing like being fair, and Mr..
| Andrew hit the nail on the head when he
said that the more "foreign" companies
| induced To come here, whether railways
or not, the better II would be for the town
| OF Lincoln.
La Force Brothers Pleaded Guilty.
This morning the brothers, George and
| Charles La Force, who were arrested by
and charged with being sturdy beggars,
were brought from jail.
They were To be given trial, but
| pleaded guilty and were each sentenced to
six months on the State Farm.
