cense commissioners. The selectmen
are not bound in any way to appoint
any of those whose names are sub
mitted, and they solicit list of names
from those who are opposed to license,
their purpose being to be entirely fair
with both sides. The committee on
constitution and bylaws consists of
c. A. Miles, A. C. Spencer and c. A.
Boyden.
The bailiffs, in response to a petit
ion, will call village meeting at an
early date, probably the latter part of
next week, to see if the village will
provide for the extension of the Chest
nut Hill water system to the furniture
plant of b. Souto & Company now be-
ing erected south of the railroad sta
tion on land formerly a part of the
Hunt farm. Mr., Crowell the princi-
pal owner of the water works, does
not wish at present to incur the ex-
pense of extending the system, The
probable cost is $4,000 to $1,000, and
the proposition probably will be to
have the village raise this money, Civ
ing Mr., Crowell the option of buying
the extension at any time at the cost
to the village, with legal interest ad-
ded. 1t will be absolutely essential
for the furniture factory to have the
water supply in order to run the plant.
This section of the village is the one
which is likely to be utilized as sites
for factories in the immediate future,
and it seems to leading business men
to be a wise policy to extend the water
works there at once. Several man
ufacturing concerns contemplate put
ting up buildings near those of the
Souto Company. One of these con-
Germs now owns large tracts of timber
land which would be available for use
in Brattleboro, and a factory, if es-
tablished here, would give steady EN-
ployment to 100 or more hands.
