NEW MILFORD.

NEW MILFORD STANDS FOR GOOD ROADS
 At the town meeting held, Saturday last, in this village, called by the enemies of better roads, vote was taken by bal l)t resulting in victory to the friends of better roads by majority of two to one. This is the third time our oppon- ents have been defeated in the same ob- ject and it is to be hoped that our next Legislature, when m session, will pass a law making it illegal tor the board of selectmen to call meetings exceeding twice in any one year for the same ob- ject. AS the law now stands the select men are obliged to call meeting at any time 20 petitioners may sign call for one. It is nonsense in the extreme to humbug the majority in this manner. It would seem that minority should have some decency and respect for an over- whelming majority, but it appears that they do not and law passed forbidding such a repetition of meetings as we have had to contend with will be welcomed.

THE ROAD QUESTION.

The meeting on the road question, in the Town hall, last Friday, on account of negligence in the posting of the se- leetmen's warning full five days in ad- vance of the meeting, proved to be but an informal gathering. Different parts of the town were well represented and listened to an explanation of the work ing of the new law for assistance to towns from the state and county, from the chairman of the state road commis- sion. Mr McDonald from New Haven. Another meeting was called to be held in the hall, this week Thursday. It is not likely that voters enough will cone out to vote $500 or a 5000 of the tax payers money as an experiment.

WATERTOWN.

 PROGRESSION THRoTTLED.
 In the last issue of THE BEE there ap. peared an item stating that Watertown had appropriated $3o00 for good roads.
 In this issue notice is given of special town meeting to be held in the new Town hall, Saturday, August 31, at 2 p. m,, to see whether or not said vote, appropriating $3000 shall be rescinded. There are always two elements in town one of progression and one of retrogres- sion. Heretofore (though many times after long and persistent struggle) the progressionists have carried the day. It had been thought by many, who have the improvement and welfare of the town always uppermost in their mind, that the old party of retrogression were being quickly converted, as very little opposition had developed in recent meetings against plans of improvement. Vain hope! The old conservative ele- l ment is yet alive, put how much cannot be told until after the special town meet ing. WatertOwn made her appropria- tion in time so that if the roads made are satisfactory the state will pay two thirds expense. Other towns have ap- proprated only to be informed by the state ''Too late, appropriation exhaust ed" If Watertown pulls out now it's taxpayers will be taxed for good roads elsewhere in the state. Some one else will get the amount laid aside for them and no tax payer of any outside district town roads. Let us have good roads. Do away with this continued draw on the town treasury of fixing roads from three to five times year according to the number of heavy rains.
