WOUND UP AFFAIRS
OF RETIRING COUNCIL
Last Meeting Of The leo7-os Municipal
Administration Was Held Last
Evening But There Was Lit
tie to Be Done.

The final meeting of the city counei
OF 1907-OS was held last night, with all
the members present except Alderman
Williams. II was Alderman Cutler's
last meeting as he was not to be a can.
didate for reelection today. Alderman
Campbell Of the sixth ward had con
tcst on in his ward but hoped TO be bacl,
with the incoming board. The third
member, whose term expired was AL
derman Thurston, but the "War- horse

tion to the election, although they did
make him timber up little in the eau
Gus.
There was very little business to be
done, outside Of the reading Of the war
rants for the month of February and
the weekly payroll Of tine police, FIRE,
water and street departments.
The oyerseer Of the poor reported that
he paid ont s597.2s IN February and
needed 5000 for March. He had bal
ance at the end Of The former month
of $4724. Oyerseer Shurtlef also re-
ported that the bin from the town of
Randolph for the quarantining Of a
Barre child for dipnthefia in Randolph
did not properly come under his depart
ment, and q letter was also received
from DR.. Holster, secretary Of the state
board of Health, that it should be
charged to the health department.
The council was willing, but inasmuch
as the bill seemed excessive it was re-
ferred to the local health officer for ex-
animation.
Chief Of police Faulkner reported
thirty arrests for February as follows:
irtoxication 26 and one each for breach
Of the peace. selling, larceny and tru-
anev. The application Of O. IT, Hale for
permit to hang new sign over the
sidewalk on Pearl street, one story up
from the ground was referred to the
street committee with power to act. Tom
Smolletts application for the position Of
ianitor Of the city haIl was left to the
incoming property committee. and the
proposed new lease of the opera house
was also left over to the next meeting.
Alderman Cutler reported that a con
tract had been made with F. i. Harris
to repair the Blackwell street FIRE sta
tion, which was damaged BIZ fire, for
total amount Of $34 No action was
taken on the application Of d. NJ Miles
for permission to build the show win
dows Of his brick building ont three
feet
That completed the business, and In.
asmuch as Alderman Cutler was the
only man sure TO retire from the board
It was deemed fitting that he should
have the honor Of moving the final ad
which he did.

Chief Contest Was Over
Local Option Vote on the
Liquor Question In Ward
Elections, Contests In the
Fourth and Sixth Wards.


Municipal election in Barre to-day was
rather tame owing to the fact there
was little contest except over the loca
option vote on the liquor question Large
crowds were on the streets all during
the day because the men were not work
ing in the granite plants, and the rusf
to the polls was started early. In some
Of the wards, the officials had all they
could do to handle the crowds.
For instance, the following figures
from the sixth ward, where there wa.
contest for alderman between Al. e.
Campbell and L, G. Beck, indicate how
early the voters got to work. IN the
first twenty minutes 80 men had voted
in thirty minutes At men, in thirty five
minute 81 and in the first hour total
of 65 had passed through. making more
than one minute. There was a similar
rush in most Of the other wards.
