The Appropriation Meet
ing Next Monday,
PLENTY TO BE DISCUSSED.
Town Reports Not Yet Ready Death
Of Father Hurley's Sister.

Monday next occurs the annual ap-
preparation meeting of the taxpayers of
Lincoln. The meeting now promises to
be long one, and Is surely one OF vital
Importance to every taxpayer. The hour
named is 2 O'Clock, and at that time 1t Is
evident that the interior of the rooms
will be tested TO their fullest capacity.
This is the only time during the year that
the citizens as taxpayers meet to discuss
the financial condition OF affairs, and
there are said to be many dissatisfied
with the past work In the financial line
by the retiring Council.
The fact that some of them have been
reelected Will give them an opportunity
to redeem themselves. The regular APP
propriations made last year we're soon ex-
hausted, and much work has been done
which must be paid for and which will
make deep impression at once In the
amounts appropriated Monday next for
supposed year ensuing. Usually there IL
a vast amount of fault finding over the
regular appropriations, but at Monday y
meeting an extra list is to be served up to
the voters. In addition To the appropria-
tions for schools, sewers, highways and
bridges, miscellaneous account, town offi-
GERS, etc., comes requests for an extra APP
preparation upon the Dexter street sewer
matter which has been hanging along for
| a long time.
The proposed new bridge at the termin-
alton of Higa street to connect the towns
OF Lincoln and Cumberland will also be
brought up, and, while II IS a matter
which should meet the approval OF all, II
is stated that many citizens will offer
strong objections. No more faithful or
| energetic committee has ever been APP
pointed than the one now chosen by the
Town Council for the construction OF the
bridge.
Jenks Park is not completed and here
