Mayor Duncan does not commit

MAKE YOUR SELECTIONS EARLY

over again Still with the Yankee faculty of getting the. best end of 3. bargain, some objectofs tried to cut President Sanders down in the price. $40 per light for minimum of 2, 500 hours service per annum to be fur nished as the borough officials sched- ule called for. But here they were up against it, for President Sanders was no longer the diplomat, but the hard man of business and refused point blank to reduce the rate. By this time, there was hurried consulta- tions among the househoIders who had installed the lights, without, evil dently, looking at their contract, and without the formality of resembling the former action Of rejection they rushed through a motion to vote by ballot on the adoption of the contract, with the result that the contract and plans submitted by the company were approved by a majority of ten votes The objectors were only playing pos sum- all the time, and the vote by ballot prevented finding them out.
 After the meeting many of the boroughftes crowded around President Sanders congratuIating him on the re- suit. All were surprised to find him a comparatively young man, but fired with the ambition to push the cor poration he so ably represents to the
 
 spot when anything is doing. To many anxious inquirers who asked him if the completion of the Danbury and Bridgeport trolley line would follow the installation of the electric lighting system in Newtown, he smiled enig- matically but only said: Perhaps; money can do almost everything. Why not that2" The building of a trolley line to Bridgeport and Danbury is a much desired blessing hoped for by all of the townspeopIe, except by a few resident of the main street. This hope animated many of the borough ties and was thes chief cause of their presence at the meeting, and explain ed their votes for the acceptance of the lighting contract. It was freely discussed by these progressive citizens gathered in groups in the hall after the meeting, and some knowing ones maintain that within a year the people of Danbury will be able to trolley ii to Bridgeport, and that the street rails will pass along our sacrosanct Main street, and not along Carcass Lane However, this may be-. the whole bor- ough streets will share in the bene- fits of the public lights under the companyss map of locations, at a cost of $1.25 per thousand dollars of az

NE TOWN TO GET
 GREAT WHITE WAY
Borough Meeting Does a Few Voting Acrobafics and Finally Adopts Plan for Electric Light ing System
Special to Ths Far1ner.o

Newtown, Dec 173The adjourned
 Borough meeting last night at the Town hall came up to expectations in
 the matter Of excitement, but the meeting finally got it's second wind,
 and then voted by a ballot of S1 to 20
 to do what at first it unanimously decided not to do by a viva voce vote.
 Assf0retodd in these columns the pub Hc sentiment favored lighting the borough by electricity but some dis who were disappointed that the com pany did not give an all night service
 to it's patrons took this opportunity to tack on this condition to their con tracts before they would accept the company,s contract for the public Bethel and Bridgeport Lighting and when it was made clear to him why there was opposition to the acceptance by the borough of the contr act offer ed by his company, said he would gladly acceede to this demand of the private users, though their contracts only called for the schedule hours the power plant was in use. He explain ed that the company owned and operated the Bethel and Danbury treet railway, and lighted the borough Of Bethel, and that the power was maintained only while these pub 11G uf1f1L19S were m OpGr&I1on, and then the power station ceased opera tfons also. Newtown patr ons were treated just as their neighbors in Bethel were; but he added that if their field of operations was extended so as to furnish public lights in New towns the company would put in a smaller generator for the Newtown supply exclusively and that an all night service of the electricity would be n1aintained for all users This was 5uBt what the people wanted, and all hmnAm were now ready to hnve vote
