TAXPAYERS GRATIFIED,

Tho annual town report was issued to tax payers. this week, and the showing made the past year is most gratifying to all interested in the best welfare of our town. The report shows for a certainty that with the present rate of taxation and good business manage ment of affairs, the same as we have had the past year, it is matter Of not over 10 years when the debt of the town may be paid in full. The net debt decreased the past year $7O15, and it is obvious to all that with the most traordinary expenses a saving of at least 5000 should be reported each year. The concensus of opinion is that the only safe thing to do is to re-elect the old board as they have a close hold of affairs at this time, and a change of management. even to aboard as fully conser- vative and of equal good business ability, will be expensive to the town as any new board will certainly be imposed upon before they get matters in thorough control.
