Paul D. Sargent, State
Highway Commissioner,
Holds Interesting Meeting at
Court House, Tuesday.
County Commissioners and Many Road
Commissioners Present.

\ meeting of the road commissions
"rs. SclcCtmcn ana other officials of the
various cities AMI towns Of Eenncbtc
county WIS held Tuesday at the county
court house. The meeting was called 10
order at 1890 o'clock in the forenoon by
County Commissioner j. w. Eassett,
and he Introduced Paul ID. Sargent,
stat" commissioner of highways. who
WAS in charge Of the meeting
Mr.. Sargent advised the town road
commissioners to have a perfect UNDER
standing Hith the Selcctmcn Of their
respective towns regarding the extent
If authority to be vested in the road
commissioner. upon what important
business the advise of the board OF Sc
lcctncn should be sought, and by hay
ing this understanding, Mr.. Sargent
said, the road commissioners would find
that unncc, ssary friction between the
various officials OF the towns would be
prevented i'll a large measure.
Mr.. Sargent contended that care in
providing for adequate drainage was
the first thing Ia be considered in build
ing or repairing roads. Very few
towns he said, ARE equipped to build
earth roads for many years. Every
town. however, can look after its
drainage"
Mr. Sargent entered into a very
helpful and comprehensive cNpla-
ration of the standard State road
section and he commented upon ii to
the extent of stating that as at pres
ent provided. the cutters are too deep.
A chart Of the road section WAS cXhib-
itcd TO illustrate Mr.. Sargcnt's re
marks upon this section.
A general discussion followed. and
Mr. RaSsett warned the road commits
sioners not to spread out their roads
incumplcte in order to make good
showing in length of roads. at the eX-
pcn5c of the thoroughncsS of conStruc-
ton.
Mr.. Sargent introduced Hon. Iioratio
s. Ea.i, state road commissioner Of
Michigan, just before the noon recess.
Mir. Earl gave very interesting al
dress dealing with the method Of road
building pursued III his state anu urged
the tieSirabilty of centralizinG more
power and authority into the hands of
the commissioner Of highways.
The afternoon session was dc:utcd I"

nounced hit. On the occasion of its
presentation in Bangor the News said
it is Il jincly. snappy. catchy little
farcical orcra. filed with enough
ginger and spice to liven up a dozen of
the cld-time musical pieces. and
literally running over with its flood of
melody and mirth. Not bar of music

large audience present this evening to
witness the last presentation here of
this delightful production.
