REPO RT O F THE SELECTMEN.

FELLOW C ITIZENS:O u r town ha s a dded a nother yea r to i ts history, a nd

the timeha s come for the a nnua lly expected r epor t . In

making this, so fa r a s ou r Boa rd i s concerned , w e proposenot on ly to gla nce a t ou r doings for the yea r of ou r ser

vice a s your select inen , but a lso to take a br ief r etrospective and prospective View of ou r town ’

s condition .

DEATHS .

The hand of dea thha s been la id upon three men con

nected with ou r town ’

s officia l a ffa irs dur ing the yea r .

Almost i n the moment ofhi s r e- election . Ben j . C . V ose ,

a va lued member of the School Boa rd , and a most es

teemed and useful citizen , w a s str icken with a mor ta ldisea se . A nd quite r ecently Joel F . Goodwin ha s de

of

la te one of the over seers ofthe poor , and jan itor of”the

town offi ces. i n which la st position he'

w a s brought in toso in tima te rela tions with ou r Boa r d tha t hi s loss waskeen ly felt by u s . But a s a Boa rd, w e ha ve moSt deeplysympa thized with the sor row which w a s gener a lly felt byou r commun ity a t the dea th of ou r a ssocia te member ,Da n iel Sawyer , whose Sickness and decea se followed so

closely uponhi s election to office a s to depr ive u s a lmostentirely of the benefit w e Should otherwise have exper ienced fromhi s a cknowledged in tegr ity and a bilities .

POLICE .

The police depa r tmen tha s been under the cha rge of

Cha rles E . Jenney, whose long exper ience here and i n

other pla ces ga ve good a ssur ance ofhi s fitness whichha sbeen fully r ea lized by the resu lts . The force w a s reducedby u s to the number employed i n 1 887 i n a ccorda nce withthe necessity imposed by the dimin ished appropr ia tionof this yea r, a nd w e believe tha t the secur ity and proper tyof ou r citizens ha ve i n no w ay suffered, but ha ve been’

a s

well gu a rded a s i n the previous yea r ; while thereha s beena sa ving of to the town . For a deta iled repor t ofthe doings of this depa r tmen t, r eference may be ma de to

the r epor t ofthe Chief hereina fter pr inted .

GRAV EL PIT .

In 1 888 the town voted to bu y a gr a vel pit and a ppropr i a ted therefor . This not ha ving been done byou r predecessor s, w e ha ve purcha sed a pit i n the Fair '

moun t distr ict for $900.

SU ITS .

No suits ha ve been brought aga inst the town , nor any

cla ims likely to lea d to

.

litiga tion presen ted dur ing ou r

The rema ining suit, tha t ofWm . J . Hayes for i njur iesreceived from a low hanging telegr aph or telephone wirei s still pending, awa iting fur ther investiga tion by theCounsel for the town . W e ha ve thought it in teresting to

br iefly deta il the na ture of these ca ses, a s ou r immedia tepredecessor s , though a lluding to the suits , wholly om ittedto give any informa tion about them .

in forma tion a t tha t time “

concern ing the cha r a cter ofthesesuits . A nd now ,

while Speaking of tha t appropr ia tion ,

w e will say tha t it ha s been dra w n upon to the amoun tof to meet bills ofthe Boa rd of“Hea lth, the appr opr i a ti on for which proved insufficient .

It i s gr a tifying to u s to be able to sta te tha t the va r iousappropr ia tions whichyou ma de la st Spr ing for Ou r u se

have proved ample to do a ll the things contempla ted byu s then , and it i s pa r ticula r ly gra tifying to feel tha t w e

W ORK O N HIGHW AYS AND SIDEW ALK S .

The amount appropr i a ted for highways w as hea vilydr aw n

would ha rdly get the streets i n repa i r before anotherWa shout would c ome a nd undo. a ll ou r work .

W e r egr et to say tha t much of the street building i npa st yea r sha s been done i n such a w ay tha t when heavyr a i ns Come la rge quan tities of wa ter a re drawn Into Chan !

‘ done a t the proper points , of a cha r a cter to relieve ou r

streets from being torn to p i eces by every hea vy r a instorm .

W e think it w a s the purpose of the citizens when w e

wer e elected, a nd it w a s ou r a im to ha ve a l l new workupon ou r streets done In a thoroughly substan tia l manner ,

a nd a s indica tive ofthe mode i n which w e ha ve a ttemptedto ca r ry ou t tha t purpose w e ca ll your a ttention withplea sure to the work done through the Cen tre of

“

thetown from the N . Y . 81; N . E . R . R . on Fairmoun t "

town i s i n the en joyment of streets bu ilt i n the samemanner . A S this cannot a ll be done i n one yea r , w e

In the ma tter ofsidewa lks w e thought it well to lay

concrete the length ofEverett street, ‘

i n view ofa dditionsa nd improvemen ts ma de i n and a round the High Schoo lproper ty on tha t street, for the benefit ofthe schola rs a nd

tea cher s oftha t school a s well a s the r est ofthe neighborhood . The sidewa lks

on O ak and Ma ple str eets, on Mt .

and ~w e

found it wa iting for u s to do ou t of this ye'

ta in moisture , which i n time of cold wea ther caused thesur fa ce to become so slippery a s to endanger the sa fety,

of

those wa lking upon It, a nd thereby make the town liableto suits a nd damages . The br icks w e sold for $5 per1 000. W e have a lso commenced to utilize the curbstonespla ced on a por tion ofAustin street la st yea r , by concreti ng the enclosed wa lk . The work on both the abovenamed loca lities w a s in ter rupted by the coming of coldwea ther , a nd being uncompleted i s not pa id for ; butthere i s enough money du e fr om bettermen t a ssessmen tsto fullypay for a ll . Eight hundred feet of pla nk sidewa lks have a lso been built i n Rea dville .

W e have caused curbstones to be la id a long the sidewa lk on West -River street from a poin t known a s theBa ss esta te to and turn ing into G lenwood a venue, about4 00 feet i n a ll . This wa lkha s not been ma de ofconcretebut ofa layer of stones covered with gra vel, a nd w e

W hen , four yea rs ago, the project ofbor rowingyea r ly for permanen t improvemen ts w a s suggested, i tsa doption w a s gr ea tly a ided by the expectation which i ts

a dvoca tes en ter ta ined tha t a very consider able pa r t ofthemoney expended for sidewa lk improvements would be r e

ma de to an amount not exceeding One per cent . of thea ssessors

’ va lua tion of the adja cen t proper ty, and it w a s

believed tha t, ifthe sidewa lks were located with goodjudgmen t, such a ssessmen t would r epay nea r ly, if not

quite , 50per cen t. of the money expended . In otherwords , the abu ttors would repay about one;ha lf the costa nd every dolla r expended from the perma nen t improvemen t fund on S idewalks would procure nea r ly twodolla r s

of such a roa d asw e have this yea r built through the centre ofthe town on

The town ha s i n the la st four yea rs expendedma de up of r a i sed by taxa tion

spen t la st yea r , or i n a ll ,

there i s left the sum of a s thea ctua l cost ofthe va r ious depa r tments of the town gov

thi s i s not d i fi iCu l t to do . Let u s look a t ou r towndebt and the future payments to be ma de on it, whicha re

1 6

Thus w e see tha t i n 1 895 the la st hea vypayment on

a ccount ofdebt will be ma de tha t then this debt, whichnow hangs like a mill—stone a round ou r necks a nd addsnea r ly $20,000 to ou r yea r ly ta xes , will be pr a ctica llypa id off. Such being the ca se, it seems tha t w e have on lyto stand sturdily for a conserva tive , business - like policyfor ou r town to reap substan tia l r ewa rds i n the nea r

i ts citiz ens and to those who m ay come this w ay with a

view to settling amongst u s . W e think such a policy can

be ca rr ied ou t with a tax r a te of from $1 5 to $1 6 pertill ou r debt i s substan tia lly pa id i n 1 895 , a fter

which w e ought to be able on a ta x r a te of$1 3 to $ 1 4

per to conduct ou r town affa irs i n a very liber a lmann er .

Such a r a te will not be la rge enough to deba r or d i s

courage capita l from seeking a home among u s , a nd thisv iew -ofthe future r a te i s v ery conserva tive . If w e weredisposed to i ndulge In a specula tive view w e shou ld say

tha t the probable increa se of pr oper ty will by tha t time

REPO RT O F TRUSTEES O F TH E PUBL IC

L IBRA RY .

The circula tion of the L ibr a ry dur i ng the pa st yea rshows a very slight cha nge from tha t of the pr eviousyea r, while the number Ofbooks and ma ga zines used i nthe reading room ha s grea tly increa sed, owing probablyto the improvemen t i n the lighting ofthe room .

Since the issue of the la st supplementa ry ca ta logue,nea r ly volumes ha ve been a dded, making it desirable to pr in t a new supplemen t , which i s now rea dy forthe press . Itha s a lso m a de it necessa ry to procur e sever ea l new book ca ses . These ca ses occu py a ll ' the spa ceava i lable for tha t purpose i n ou r present qua r ters, and i nthe nea r future the fur ther growth Ofthe Libra ry will demand increa sed a ccommoda tions .

In this connection i t may be well to ca ll the a ttentionofthe town to the fa ct tha t it i s possible to furn ish thelibr a ry a nd rea ding room with such a ccommoda tions a s

a re desir a ble with little or no increa se i n the a nnua l expense . The tow n a lrea dy pays a s rent for the rooms now

used the interest on the trusteesha ve a fu nd Of

over ava ilable for this purpose . The two sumswould erect a building which would not on ly supply a ll

the r oom needed, bu t a t the same time by i ts externa lbeauty, be a source of pr ide and gr a tifica tion to a ll ou r

citiz ens .

The propor tion of fiction a dded dur ing the presentyea r ha s been somewha t less than i n previous yea rs , andthe trustees would ca ll especia l a tten tion to the works on

3 1

Amer ican Biogr aphy, Na tur a l History a nd Geogr aphy;a nd to the F rench and German books which have been .

r ecen tly receiv ed . The a im ofthe Boa rd i n the purcha seofbooksha s been , so fa r a s possible, to furn ish instru ctionto the rea der s, and , a t the very lea st, ha rmless

"

recrea tion .

If i n spite Oftheir ca r e any books Of doubtful cha r a cterfi nd their w ay i n to the Libr a ry, the Trustees will be gla dtoha vel thei r a ttention ca lled to such books, tha t they m ay

be withdra wn from circula tion .

A blank book for quer ies and answers w a s placedon the Libr a r ian ’

s desk some time since , but i ts

u se thus fa r ha s not been very extensive . It i s hoped,however , tha t when i ts advan tages a re better under stood,it will serve a s the vehicle ofmuch useful informa tion .

By vir tue of a recent sta tute of the Commonwea lth,the Town Trea surer becomes ex - Offi ci o the trea surer of

REPORT .

T O THE HO NO RABLE BO ARD O F SELEO TME N

Gen tlemen : .W e herewith presen t to you ou r annua lreport for the yea r ending Ja nua ry 31 st,1 890, togetherwith the r ecord of fi res and losses . Some changesha ve been ma de by u s which w e feel a re for the bet ter .

Soon a fter ou r appoin tmen t w e issued. orders tha t on

fir st a la rms Of fi r e on ly one Hose Company, Chemica l,a nd Hook Ladder should respond and other com

pa n i es to rema in a t qua r ters twen ty minutes for a

second a la rm, instea d Ofrunn ing a ll compan ies a s before ,the two Hose compan ies a t Engine house to a ltern a temon thly on fi r st a la rms . Electr ic lights ha ve been puti n the Engine house and a re so a rr anged tha t the wholelow er

‘

floor can be lighted the moment an a la rm sounds ,being much quicker than the O ld method and doing awaywith oi l lamps . In fa ct everythi ng ha s been done to

fa cilita te the getting of appa ra tus to fires a s quickly a s

possible . The need ofa better a la rm w a s brought to ou r

a tten tion a nd w e fina lly decided to purcha se a C rosbyS team Fire a la rm whistle which by permission of theElectr i c L i ght a nd Power C O . w e pla ced on their Buildi ng , they agreeing to blow the same for fires .

W e have inspected theh0se now i n u se and fi nd tha tthere should be a t lea st a thousa nd dolla rs spen t for new

hose a s soon a s pr a cticable , a s about 2 000 feet now i n

u se i s over eight yea r s O ld and i s.

fa st going ou t ofu se

through age, whi ch lea ves u s with about 1 700 feet tha ti s good a nd dependable .

H-Y D R A N T S .

This bra nch Of ou r F ire Depa r tment requires prompta ction , w e think, with

!

a V i ew to giving to the proper tycrea ted here In the la st few yea rs tha t protecti on whichsuitable hydr an t service -

a lone can give .

When the wa ter works were constructed fi ve yea rs ago

and when the town contr a cted for 1 00hydr an ts the wholescope ofthe wa ter system a s then con templa ted w a s 011 1—1miles ofma ins and those 1 00 hydr an ts were pla ced the re;on. But ou r town ha s grown since then and the wa terworks ha ve kept pa ce with this growth .un til there a re

now 2 4 miles of ma ins, the 1 0 miles a dditiona l ha vingsca rcely a hydr an t upon them . W e ea rnestly recommendto the town to take immedia te mea sures to have from 50

to 60more hydr ants , provided a contr a ct can be ma de forthe same, a s w i ll not ma ter ia lly increa se the present costofou r hydr an t servi ce .

A n ample hydr an t serv ice will fr equently remove thenecessi ty

'

oflong lines Of hose and will thus sa ve muchexpense i n wea r and tea r Of same, and , moreover , theshor ter the lines ofhose the mor e quickly ca n streams of

wa ter be put upon a‘

fi re a nd the more effective will thosestreams be .

FIRE ALARM .

This br anch ofou r depa r tmen t w e found i n need ofsome

a tten tion and a t request ofM r . Hawley, stewa rd of eu

gine house, whoha sha d the man agemen t of this branch,he w a s furn ished with the necessa ry tools a t a very sma llexpense, and dur ing the yea r ha s ma de ma ny improvements i n the same , sa ving the town con sider a ble expenseOf hir ing Boston pa r ties a s heretofore . The line ha sbeen put into tw o cir cuits so tha t i n ca se of a n a ccidenton the line a pa r t ofit r ema ins i n u se , instea d ofrender ingthe whole line useless un til r epa ired a s before , and her e

36

w e will say tha t the fi r e a la rm ha s become a very importan t fa ctor i n the fi r e depa r tmen t, ena bling u s to get

a la rms a s soon as fires a re discover ed and saving a gooddea l ofva luable time . W e ea rnestly recommend thepu rcha se of eight more a la rm boxes i n order to give thesame protection to por tions Of ou r town tha t . a re en joyedbythose tha t ha ve them . W e ha ve now about 1 4 milesofwire on tw o cir cuits and 1 0 fi r e a la rm boxes , tw o 1 5

inch tapper gongs, one a t engine hou se a nd one a t electr i ct light sta tion , one tower str iker . on M ; E . church bell ,one tapper a t Corson ’

s sta ble , a lso, tappers'

a t houses Of.

Chief Hilton a nd Assista n t Engineer Sweet, a lso, i nhouses offour members Of depa r tmen t, a t Balkam ’

s lumber ya rd a tapper and button , the current being furn ishedfrom a 56 cell ba ttery loca ted i n ba semen t Ofengine houseand under ca re ofE . A . Hawley, stewa rd Ofengine house .

The fi re a la rm i s now i n good order and wit-hthe same

ca re a nd a tten tion itha s had dur ing the pa st yea r , w e believe it will do a ll tha t i s cla imed for it . W e would urgethe town to extend the system so a s to give a ll pa r ts of

ou r town the protection a good .fi re a la rm affords . Thetown ha s been very for tuna te i n ha ving bu t few fires a sthe following list ofa la rms will Show .

It must not be forgotten tha t ea ch yea r finds new

pupils for ea ch tea cher , nor must w e forget tha t while to

outwa rd appea r ance ou r schools seem nea r ly the same

So it often happenstha t tea chers a nd methods tha t ha ve met with ma rked su ccess On e yea r may prove a lmost or qu i te a fa ilure the nextyea r beca use of changed condi tions and rela tions . Thena tures of the pupils , their habits of life and thought,their heme ca re and tr a in ing a ll en ter in to this problema nd become pa r ts of the fina l r esul t of their school work .

The school i s not a ma chine shop where a ll childrenir r espective of these conditions can be put through theva r ious gra des and come ou t fin ished a like , and a like capable Of the duties of life .

The work of the school must be ela stic, touching ea chchild where the need appear s , a nd this need must bewa tched for and met by the ca r e a nd ingenuity of thetea cher . I t i s these constan tly changing conditions tha trequire exper t tea chers and tha t constan t vigilance oftheCommittee tha t the pupils may a t a ll times ha ve tha t kindof instruction best suited to them .
