As a result the follow ing protest was drafted by the secre- tary of the association:
 To the Hon. Henry l.. .Stimson, Sec
 retary of War, Washington, D. C.: Dear Sir: At meeting regularly called of the Fishermen's Protective association the following resolution was voted:
 Resolved. That whereas the firing of guns in target practice at Fort Wright, Fishers Island. seriously endangers the lives of a large number of citi- zens engaged in the lobster industry, and thus prevents them from hauling their traps, which are in deep water, and can only be hauled at the turn of tide, slack water, and as the men and their families are dependent on this business, in which they have thou sands of dollars invested, for a living, and as the firing is at movable tar gets, we respectfully ask that you will order the movable target practice dis continued during slack water and thus greatly favor the large number of citi- zens engaged in this business.
 Resolved. That the secretary of this F. P. A. be instructed to forward a copy of this resolution to the secre- taTy of war

Unless some remedy is applied there

Unless some remedy is applied there will bo shrinkage in the receipts of taxation to pay the expenses of the town of Westerly the ensuing year There fig new state law which speci- nes that intangible property shall be taxed at 70 cents on each s10O. At the financial meeting of the town of West eriy the customary tax of S1.50 on each S1OO of taxable property, tangible and intangible, was levied as usual. and without due regard for the new state law. This has caused a compli- cation that will tax the combined legal and business capacity of the town gov ernment to smooth out.
 The S1.50 tax was based upon the estimated expenses for the year and the sum realized from taxes on that basis is actually. required With 40 cents deducted for intangible property. the receipts will be materially reduced.

Work was commenced Tuesday mern= ing A the actual work of connecting q nils of the Groten and Stonington St c, Railway company that termi- ma lt the state and town boundary lin on the Broad street bridge with tlit rails of the Pawcatuek Valley Street Railway company at the june ton of Main and Broad streets, dis tance of about 150 feet. about half the distance being on the steel bridge that spans the Pawcatucl1 river which IS of dome construction, with roadbed about two feet in depth This road bed Is of solid cement concrete to within tlree inches of the surface. and the digging is necessarily slow, as the road material almost equals in hard ness the Westerly granite It is neces- sary in order to properly place the ties to dig to the center of the top of the domes and about three feet wider than the length of the ties, It will probably require three days to clear the space on the bridge for the laying of the rails and the preparation of the space be- yond is an easy task in comparison. fh the opinion of the contractor the rails will be connected by Saturday of the present week. and probably trolley cars from the Groton Stonington line will come into Westerly territory for the first time next Sunday.
 The bridge over the Pawcatuck was built 27 years ago and the hardened condition of the roadbed gave evidence of the thoroughneSs of the work, which is fully up to the guarantee of 25 years, The bridge will be strengthened wherever necessary by the concern that built the bridge and at the ex- pense of the trolley companies inter- ested.
 The plan contemplateS the running of the cars into Westerly. and to the railway station, which will eventually be the terminal for all trolley lines en- tering Westerly. This change will re- neve the congested conditions in West Broad and Mechanic streets caused by the freight department, as all that part of the business will be handled at the freight depot in Railroad avenue. Some time in the not distant future connec- tons win be made So that the Groton- Stonington cars can run to Watch Hill direct without going into Dixon square and back and fill to get on the main line of the PaWcatuck Valley road. The management of the trolley lines are spending immense sums in extend- Ing and improving the system. evil dently having more faith in the future growth of Westerly than many of It's eldest inhabitants.
