The taxpayers of this village are wondering II
they are not an exception to the generally accepteo
rule that all the people cannot be fooled all the
time The cause of this wonderment is the SzoV"
retaining wall In Durston-ave.. which was TO have
been erected Jointly by the State Prison authori-
ties and the village the prison furnishing the LABOR
and stone and the village the skilled worKmeh'
cement and other material and paying the Incl
dental expenses At the present time the wall
which is a handsome structure of cut limestone, Is
about two-thirds done and there has not been a
stroke OF work performed upon 1t In six months
When its building first proposed $lVD was all
that was asked from the village. which was cneer-
fully voted as a special tax In a short time sloW
more was requested and the trustees Appropriate
that amount from the general fund. over a year
ago an additional sum Of 1850 was asked for' WIN
wall The taxpayers promptly voted that amount
as a special tax and work was continued on the
wall until all except about 800 of the Appropriation
had been expended. when operations ceased on
Nav 20 last owing TO a disagreement between 'he
prison and village officials. a., Ls
At the present time the village has on It's hdnus
an uncontrolled structure, which is more detri-
ment than an ornament to the place. There is no
guarantee that the State will ever complete H. espe'
cjally as there is to be a change OF wardens at me
prison II operations should be resumed under the
original arrangement II is evident that II VIII re-
ouire more than the 500 on hand TO bulld the re-
naming third OF the wall and II would cost the
Village at least s. OO TO finish the work on its own
account. The wall to-day, on the principal lhoi
oughfare the village from the railroad station Is
a monument the folly Of trusting 10 luck ana
conducting public matters in a haphazard way

COMMISSIONS ON THRILLING DAMAGE SUITS
GRIEvoUs BURDEN IN wEsTcHEsTER
There is a growing dissatisfaction In Westchester
County over the abuses that have resulted from
the appointment of commissions to settle trinng
damage suits brought against the towns ana
municipalities by reason Of street and highway I'M
proyements and changes of grades. The practice
has grown to such extent that scarcely any
small improvement can be made without an appeal
TO the courts for the appointment of three com
missioners The commissioners receive $40 DAY
and expenses. Each commission has corps OF eX-
pert witnesses who usually receive s25 a day. and
liberal allowances are made tor counsel fees ana
stenographers.
There are a number Of politicians In Westchester
County who have done little in several years ex-
cent serve on commissions and furnish expert
testimony.
In many Of the damage suits the costs OF adJudi-
cation far exceed the awards An example Of this
has been furnished recently in New Rochelle, where
a score Of claimants in damage suit against the
village have had their cases adjourned in order
that they may attempt settlement by having the
municipality repair the damage TO their property.
The costs In the cases settled by the commission
averaged about 500 each, and the proceedings
were in a fair way 10 bankrupt the village II con-
tinued.
In ,other places in the county the people have
become so alarmed that they are urging the trus-
toes and town boards TO take advantage of the laws
and settle damage suits themselves
