Drama of Food Monopoly has
Powerful Situations.

Big scenes full of suspense
and intensity of emotion charac-
terize the new Triangle-Ince
play, ''The Corner" which will
be shown at the Electric thea
tire tomorrow Saturday even
ing. David Waltham George
Fawcett) is q man of iron will,
ruthless and cruel. He cares
nothing for the suffering of the
thousands of poor men, women
and children who suffer the
pangs of hunger and cold because
he corners the food supply of the
nation. He sits at ease in his
library surrounded by beautiful
paintings, sculptures, tapestry
and gold and silver articles of
art.
Three half-starved and des-
perate workingmen burst into
the house and get into an altera-
ton with the lordly butler, who
tries to keep them from seeing
Waltham. The noise of their
loud protestations arouses Walt
ham and he leaves the library for
the anteroom, where trouble is
brewing. When he finds that
they have come to threaten him
if he does not promise to give up
his plan of squeezing the poor
of the country, he pulls out his
watch and gives them one min
ute to leave. Otherwise he says
he will call the police.
He stands uncompromisingly
with face grim and set and his
eyes boring at the leader and
spokesman, They quail as they
sense the irresistible power of
the master. One weakens and
starts to stink away. Then the
other two follow and Waltham
goes back to his easy chair, with
out showing a trace of emotion.
: Another scene of great emo
tional effects is that when John
Adams (Willard Mack returns
from prison and finds his wife
coming into their humble home
late at night dressed in a garb
that's loud in pattern and hat
ladened down with plumes and
ribbons Adams is almost wild at
the thought Of his wife's fall and
stares at her with the glare of a
wild beast about to kill its prey.
The woman is almost out of her
mind with fear and shame, but
she saves herself by the simple
statement that she has done it to
save her children.

For the fiscal year closing June
30th, 1916, the records show the
council held twenty meetings
twelve regular and eight spec

ial meetings there were passed
six ordinances and four resolu-
tions.
STREET LIGHTING SERVICE.
In my annual report to the
council of July 1st, 1915, [ made
mention of the schedule charged
by the Winslow Electric Light &
Power Go. for street lighting
service, which was at that time
So. 33 per light per month. | al
so reported the matter of rates
and service was before the State
Corporation Commission for ad-
justment. The rates prescribed
by that commission are now on
file in the clerks office, subject
to inspection by the general pub
lie.
FIRE SIGNAL SYSTEM.
There has been no change in
the fire signal system, which is
being operated from the tele-
phone central office. This SER
vice is rendered by the company
without charge to the town.
FIRE COMPANY.
The fire department, known as
the Winslow Fire Company, has
attended twelve fires, or six more
than was attended for the pre-
vious fiscal year. At the time
this report is being prepared the
company has purchased new
cart and 300 feet of frst-class
fire hose.
MAINTENANCE OF SEWERS.
The cost of maintaining the
sewer has been very small. You
will notice in my financial report
that less than 5000 was paid out
for this purpose. For the ex-
tension of the system the coun-
Gil has received a number of pc
titions, letters and verbal re-
quests, but as these extensions
necessitated a considerable out
lay of money the sewer commit,
tee was obliged to hold the work
up until such time as the council
could raise the money necessary. |
GENERAL.
The general condition of the
town financially is about the
same as the last report. The net
assessed valuation for the pre-
vious year was 81, 462,058. In
the annual tax budget, which
was published August 13, it was
provided that from this valua-
ton there should be raised $14,-
866, and from all other taxes
S1400, thus making the total tax
revenue for the fiscal year end
ing June 80, 1916, $16, 286, or in
other words, it costs the town
about $4,000 annually to con-
duct its affairs. The assessed
valuation for the ensuing fiscal
year is slightly more than last
year, due to the raise ordered by
