Special Town Meeting.

A special town meeting to make an adj
ditional appropriation to the fund for the
relief of the poor, was held in America
Hall, on Saturday. Joseph G. Kingdom
was elected moderator.
Micajah f. Matlack, the township
counsel, stated that the overseer of poor
thought that about 5000 would be neces-
sary to carry him through the winter.
Edward D. Stokes asked how much it
took to expend the poor fund. He had
understood that about 40 per cent was
used for fees.
Mr.. Matlack said that the overseer OF
poor received rs cents for every visit he
made, and then his action had to be con-
firmed by justice Of the peace, whose
charge was 25 cents.
Amos Gibbs said there is no law con-
trolling this matter, nor is there any
fee in the law book for either oyerseer or
Justice, the amount paid them being left
to the discretion of the township commit
tee. Nobody wanted the officers to work
for nothing, but under the existing cir
cumstances be thought that there should
be some concessions.
Col. Sloan endorsed these remarks. He
also thought that there should be con
slant consultation between the overseel
and the township committee over the ex
penditure of the money, otherwise there
might be instances Of indiscriminate dis
trbutIon.
Mr.. Matlack stated that the overseer o
poor was perfectly willing to do his shar'
IN this matter, and he would only charg'
% cents visit instead of 70. Two JUS
tees had signifed their intention OF issu
ing orders without fee. The oversee
would also work in conjunction with tn
citizens committee recently organized
T. Harry Bowker offered an amend
ment that the sum to be appropriated b
} 81, 600.
The amendment was lost. and the orig
inal motion to appropriate 5000 wa
adopted The meeting then adjourned.
