INJUNCTION BY WATSON
A. c. Blanchard and L. N. Avenll
Were the Petitioners Charter
CIaimed Unconstitutional.

On petition OF A. &. Blanchard and u.
NJ. Ayerill, property owners on the wester-
" side Of Main street between Prospect
street and the Barre National Bank an in
junction has been granted BY Judge John
II. Watson, forbidding and strictly enioin-
| ing the city Of Barre from collecting the
assessments for the paving OF the street
with granite blocks, and from selling the
property 0f the two orators or bringing
suit for the purpose Of collecting the as
sessment.. AIR. Blanchard has a frontage
OF 3.l4 feet, and his assessment for the
pavement put In last fall Is S3S5-75. Mr.
Averlll has frontage 0f 523 feet, and
bis assessment Is S2ll.2l. The assessments
were made on the basis that the abutters
were benefited to the extent Of S403S4
per front foot The securing of She in
junction Is the first step which will be
made by some Of the abuitors ia contest
ing the right OF the city to assess them for
the improvement.
The grounds on which the orators ap-
piied for an Injunction are many They
allege that the city charter Of Barre
does not provide that the abutters shall be
heard upon the question as to whether the
public good and convenience, and the ne
eessity Of individuals, demands that such
work be done; nor does the charter pro-
vide the right of appeal from the decision
OF the city council but leaves the extent OF
the improvement, the costs thereof. etc.
to the final determination Of the takers
| without notice or hearing.
The orators assert that the city charter
gives the city council the power to deter
mine whether the public good aud con
venience, and the necessity az individuals
requires the work, and that the council by
resolution Of June 10, 1908. left that de-
clsion to the street committee which COM
| pFlSes only three members OF the council
and that the street committee acted with
out authority in law when they held q
meeting and decided that which should
have been decided by the council that the
street was paved on their fiadlnes alone.
Messrs. Blanchard and AyerIlI assert
that after the completion Of the paving,fhe
street committee did not assess the abut-
ters according to special benefit, that
IN front Of some Of the property.
er0sS-walks and better kinds IL
cuTbing were put Id. that the build
ings on some Of the abutting property
are more valuable and the lots deeper: but
the assessments have been Jumped In at
the rate Of 81 03S4 per foot frontage.
They further allege that their property
was in danger OF being sold 10 pay the as
sessment, that the city has undertaken TO
take their property without right Of au-
thority that said acts Of the city of Barre,
the board OF aldermen. city councll, and
street commissioners are unconstitutional
and void.
Messrs. Blanchard and Averili claim
that they have not full and complete
remedy at law In the premises

Rutland License Commissioners Want to
Retain Their Powers.
Rutland, May 1T is understood that
the members of the controlling faction In
the Rutland board Of aldermen are taking
steps preliminary to securing an injunc-
ti0n to prevent the members Of the board
OF license commissioners from issuing two
fifth class liquor licenses, which the eSm-
mission plans 70 do the latter part of the
present week or the first OF next, and it ii
therefore apparent that no licenses Of any
kind viii be granted for long time 10
Rutland. If the aldermen are successful in
securing an Injunction.
The commissioners say they will fight
the effort to put them out OF business.
They take issue with the opinion Of City
Attorney Meldon and the secretary OF
state as to the Interpretation OF the law
on the disputed point and they mention
the fact that when they were appointed it
was for six, four and two years, respec-
lively, without any conditions attendant
The license commissioners held hear
ing today on the application Of John II.
Dugan for fifth class liquor license. No
opposition was made and the decision was
reserved.
