The Hearing in Detail.

The hearing was begun shortly before
nine o clock in the supreme court room,
the following members of the JOINT
committee on municipal corporations
being present: Senators Van Patten
of Burlington and Greene of st. Albans,
REPRESENTATIVES Finn of Springfield,
Dewart of st. Albans, Grafton of Bur
Iinpton, Bucknell of johnson, Turn.
bull of Barton, HOLT of West Rutland
and Benson of Newfane.
The first speaker was Representative
E. w. Gibson of Brattleboro who SAID
that he had learned of little opposition
in Brattleboro to the passage of the
hill in its original form. He said the
main point was that Brattleboro want
ed water system and wished the leg,
islature to give it the same fair KIND
of a charter that it would give any
CORPORATION. He thought it no more
than fair that the past acts of the water
board be legalized and seemed to think
that this opinion was shared by large
majority of the voters of the village.
W, B. c. Stickney of Bethel then
smoke as counsel for Mr. Crowell. lie
said that there was no objection To
giving the village of Brattleboro au-
thoritv to obtain the relief 1T desired,
Int that the legislature should be just
in the matter. He said he had no par
t;cular criticism to make in regard to
the charter amendment as proposed by
Mr.. Gibson s bill, but that the com
mittee should take into consideration
the conditions that had grown out OF
the fact that there was an existing
system in the town. He said that the
village had made demands on Mr.. crow
oil from time to time until his systems
had become almost like public property
and he proposed the insertion OF Sec
tion forbidding the village to, construct
an Independent system until 1t haa
arbitrated for the present systems un,
der the terms of the agreement ratihed
bv the informal vote of the village
at the meeting held in June OF TINS
wear. Mr.. Stickney thought it would
be inexpedient if not unjust should the
village be permitted to construct new
system without first making every effort
TO buy that of Mr.. Crowell. he thougnt
that such a proposition would be unfair
not only to Mr. Crowell himself, but 70
the taxpayers of the village. AS eoun-
sol for Mr.. Crowell he said he believed
the proposed amendment bill did mo- not
cover the matter sufficiently, and there,
fore, asked for the insertion in the bill
of the section recommended by him.
The next speaker was c. G. Fits
who gave a lucid history of the 1s-e Brat,
tleboro water question. In 1876 he
said the legislature passed an amend,
ment to the village charter in regard
to a water supply. This amendment
was to become operative only upon
vote of majority of the voters OF the
village and consent in writing OF per, p
sons representing majority OF the
grand list. At the village meeting In

HEARING ON WATER BILL
BEFORE COMMITTEE ON MUNIcI-
PAL CORPORATIONS TUESDAY.
Proposed Amendment TO Village Char
ter Brings Out Some New Features
In Local Controversy = Delegation
from Here at Montpelier.

Tuesday was Brattleboro day in Mont.
heller The Joint committee on mu'
nieipal corporations of the Vermont
legislature devoted its spare time be-
tween sessions 20 rehearsal OF the
ramifeations of the now famous Brat.
tleboro water controversy. The o.
casion was public hearing on house
hin l5I introduced by Representative
Gibson for the purpose Of giving the
village the power to procure, own and
operate n water system. Between 20
and 30 Brattleboro citizens went to
Montpelier for the purpose of being
| heard before the municipal corpora
tions committee ON this subject, end
their views were heard with interest
by many representatives and senators
who visited the supreme court room
at intervals during the progress OF the
discussion. Geo. +. Crowell, proprietor
of the Chestnut Hill and Sunset Lake
systems, was present at the hearing
and was represented by Attorney Cen
eral Clarke c. Fits Of Brattleboro and
w. b. c. Stickney of Bethel. II. u.
Barber of this town appeared as attor'
nev for a number of local taxpayers,
while j. X. Batchclder of Arlington
acted as counsel for the village water
board.
Several hours were spent in hearing
the views of those present and the
various phases of the dilemma in which
the village now finds itself were
thoroughly threshed out. Before the
hearing had been in progress long u
became evident that the bill OF when
Mr.. Gibson is father contained many
weak spots and would amount to very
little il passed in its original form
II was pointed out that il lacked the
provision for the right of appeal on
the question of the necessity of taking
land and on the question of damage
This omission alone would have made
the amendment unconstitutional accord
ing to a recent decision of the vermont
supreme court (Stearns VS. City OF Barre
END VT. Another provision which
caused criticism was that legalizing the
actions of the village at the specla
meeting of Jan. 10, 1906 and continu
ing the present water board IN power
until its successors should be chosen
Mr.. Crowel s position before tho
committee was that his property rlghtS
and services rendered the village shoulC
be taken into consideration and thai
the charter should, therefore, contain
clause compelling the village to ne
gotiate for his systems before taking
steps toward the establishment OF Z
competing one The water board nam
tanned that the majority of the voters
of the village were not in favor Of
compulsory arbitration and that no sucl
restriction should be placed in the char
tier. While the municipal corporation
committee expressed no opinion on thes'
questions its attitude seemed to faVo,
some sort of protection for Mr. Crowell
and it is not unlikely that the amend
! ments covering this point will be rec
. commended by the committee when TN
bill is reported.

ditor. l.. +. Adams; directors, ,. H.
Lnwton. G. l.. Dunham and II. X. Miles.
Drs. A. |. Miller and c. 5. Pratt were
reelected members of the medical board
for two years The report of the treas.
urer showed the financial condition OF
the institution TO be about the same as
wear ago. although less money has
been taken in during the past year
because of less illness in town. Inc
maintenance of the hospital cost the
Thompson fund approximately sl2,OOo
for the year Just ended, this being VI
800 less than was received from the
fund last year.
The report of the superintendent,
Miss Elsie p. McCloskey, shows that
seventeen less patients have been al
mitted to the hospital this year thah
last; the number this year being 2oo.
OF these So were medical cases and lOi
surgical eases. Last year the number
of medical cases was 4S and the num-
Der of surgical cases Ten patients
have died at the hosp during the
past wear. Five of these were morn
bund when admitted and three lncura'
BILE. There are l5 patients at the nos
pital at the present time. fifty-hve
natients have been treated free TINS
wear as against 80 last year. The mum
her paving less than the full rate TINS
wear was 90 as against 10 the previous
year,
The report of the district nurse,
Miss Florence A. Mcdonald, shows
the number of cases attended this year
to be 900 as against 2s4 the previous
wear. The number of calls made this
was 1919 as against 1880 the pre-
vious wear. There has been a great in.
crease. however, in the number OF AN
night calls made In her report MISS
| Mcdonald calls attention to the fact
that during the past year the work OF
the district nurse has grown TO pc
more like what is known as hourly
nursing; that is, the care of patient
for an hour or two in the morning or
evening or both, and has required little
of the work necessitated by careless
ness or neglect which is so frequently
met with in district work in the cities.
There has been a marked decrease IN
the amount of surgical work done dur
inc tbe past wear. Miss Mcdonald says
that in general the patients have been
very appreciative of all things done for
their comfort and welfare and have
tried to carry on the treatment in the
absence of the nurse to the best of their
ability. OF the number of calls listed
90 were made by other nurses, either
graduates or pupils of the training
school,
