piling Up a Towns Debt.

The town meeting has gone and done
it, and i'm obedience to the time-honored
custom all must bow TO the will OF the
majority. But the lamentations are loud
and numerous that the towns indebted
ness should have received such seant
consideration. These careless ways VIII
sooner or later lead the town into imam
cial difficulty With no thought OF re-
ducing the debt, the voters 90 on year
after year piling up a still larger debt,
satisfied TO pay the interest and continue
the accumulated principle as burden
for the future. There is no more con-
cern now to many of the voters with the
towns Indebtedness at $4,000 than
when ii was only half or one-thlrd that
amount. They argue that the town
never should have had such adebt, but
fail to take into account the improve
ments, such az schools, sewer constitute
ton work, and the building Of the new
bridge, entailing extraordinary expenses.
Those who would go back to olden
times to show how the town was run
economically without mourning any out.
standing debt are inclined to forget that
the increasing needs OF the town had
to be met in the improvements above
enumerated. 1t is the part OF wisdom,
therefore. for the taxpayers to provide
some means of wiping out this indebted
ness. in order that the town may be pre-
pared to make still further improve
monts as the exigences of the times
may demand
Other towns of the state have allowed
themselves to drift along with the same
indifference as the town Of Hartford, re-
garding the piling up of debt. II Is not
that indebtedness necessarily impairs the
financial condition of the town, for with
81, 100000 assets the town of Hartford
should worry, but the town ought to
follow the example Of other progressive
towns and apply something each year to
sinking fund that would retire the
debt. without saddling the whole burden
on future generations White River
