MONDAY, MAY 30, 1910

The volunteer fire company is
working to get an up-to-date fire.
fighting system for the town and
it should receive the hearty CO.
operation and support of the
town commissioners and every
citizen of the town. The system
of turning in alarms proposed
by the company will cost very
little, according to the estimate
made, and it would be effective.
As it is now it is impossible to
indicate the location of a fire by
the alarm. This and the horse
and hose wagon and fire house
are all needed. The size of the
town and the value of the prop
erty to be protected are too
great to rely upon hose wagons
that must be pulled through the
streets by men, and if men are
willing to give their time and
attention to this work the town
ought certainly to furnish the
necessary equipment. And we
are sure that it will be done
The importance of the work the
fire company is trying to do can
not be overestimated and WI
believe that it will receive tn.
most hearty and loyal support.

600 Of the issue as compared with
81, 765, 600 that were bid for on
the first date for the bond sale,
May Is, when all bids were re-
jected. The bids ranged from
81, 900 to 5000, 600, whereas there
was one bid in the first effort to
sell the issue for 100000, this
from the New York Life Insur-
ance Co.. which bid was not re-
newed. The bids opened Satur-
day were accepted and there are
additional bids on hand running
up the sale to 81, 218,500. The
bids Saturday leave So, 211, 500 Of
the issue to be taken care Of in

al methods Of rescuing the adj

General Assembly be called in
extra session to either in
crease the rate of interest
above the a per cent provided so
as to effect the sale in the ordi-
nary way, empower the Treasur-
er to exchange new bonds for the
