Rutland is having much the same
experience in its city government as
Barre. The Herald of yesterday says:
at is now five weeks since the new
administration began at city hall, and
no one of the employees has received
any pay for his services. In the fire
department, at police headquarters
and in the offices of certain city
functionaries the question is being
asked, When is pay day coming? The
finance committee appointed by Pres
ident Murdick of the board of alder
men has been running over monthly
bills and accounts, but SO far as the
public knows, nothing has come of it,.
This pressure for money due ordained
to be due will become a distinct fact
or in the deadlock at the city hall.
There are those who say that by next
Monday evening some adjustment of
the difficulties will be made, and from
that time on the people will have a
chance to see the wheels go around. "
It is Town Talk.
