Dietâ€" rich, who said he had been assured by Engineer Irwin of the Highways Department that the town would receive 50 per cent of the cost of the 20 foot strip if the road was paved this year. The Bremnnan Pavâ€" Ing Co. informed him they could do the paving this year for less money than last year. In order to get the matter under way Reeve Dietrich suggested that the petition be circulated at once. Mayor Henâ€" derson, however, was not in favor of proceeding with the matter until the council had an understanding in writing with the Highways Departâ€" ment that they would pay 50 per cent. of the 20 foot strip. The town had not received its portion of the cost of the north King street paveâ€" ment from the county, said the Mayor. The clerk was instructed to New Uniforms Ordered. Amos M.

Dietrich strongly reâ€" sented the statement of councilior Kaufman that there was underhandâ€" e1 work. The petition had been cirâ€" lated by himself on instructions from the council and was properly signed. To say that there was underhand work is absolutely upâ€" true. | â€" _ Councilior Bauer said â€"he could ’not see that the council had the "anthority to exempt the ratepayers on Erb street from paying their just share of the cost. Because a misâ€" take was made in the assessment of the north King street pavement it is no reason why it should be reâ€" peated on the Erb street road. Ratcâ€" payers pay their roads on the 75 and 25 per cent. basis and it is not just or fair to ask them to help pay 60 per cent. of the cost of the 20 foot strip on Erb street.

Henderson expressed the opinion that if the gas price was lowered there would be a subâ€" stantial increase in the number of consumers. His firm he said tound gas more satisfactory than electricâ€" ity and if the price of gas was lowerâ€" ed they would not use electricity. A goodly number of other places of business and householders would do the same with the result that it would help both towns and make a further reduction in price possitble. Commissioner A. K.

Dick: son, was sold to Mr. J. Gault of New York; and thenceforth Mr. Bowman, with the deceased and their daughter lived in Preston. Mrs. Bowman‘s mother was a woman of notable kindness, a quality that réeâ€" appeared in the daughter; and the Blair homestead of that day was the scene of an endless succession of hospitalities to â€" relatives, friends and all other comers. From this standpoint the place, in its setting and all its surroundings, natural und other, was idegl; but its paraâ€" mount charm remained always the now departed hostess, and the host and their amiable family.
