Denton Accepts Tnvi- tation to Remain in Plainville |MAY BUY .YOTING MACHINES Adjourned Special Town Meeting Ex- INCREASE pected to Decide Against Returning to Australian Ballot—Former Pas- tor Sits With Congregation—Briefs. ! Rev. J. Willam Denton yesterday | formally notified the members of the Advent Christian church of his ac- ceptance of the invitation to remain here as pastor for another year. Ap- preciative of the excellent results he | has obtained since coming to Plain- ville, the congregation was anxious to they extended a unanimous call to him, voting him an increase in sal- ary of $100 a year. Since Mr. Denton took charge of the affairs of the church, its growth has been steady and today it has a large membership. Its financial con- dition has improved in remarkable fashion and is now regarded as ex- cellent. The church is self supporting and through the efforts of the pastor has been able to pay all its debts withoul seeking ald from the conference. Unti! Mr. Dgnton came here, a part of the pastors salary was paid from the con- ference appropriation for missions. The condition of the treasury, how- ever, recently caused the members to vote against asking for help, and they expect to continue paying expenses entirely through their own efforts. Mr. Denton announced yesterday that he will spend the next seven days in Sharon where he will assist in revival services in the Advent Chris- tlan church of that place. His pulpit will be supplied next Sunday morning by Rev. W. S. Bezanson of Bris- tol, Rev. Frederick Viggers of Spring- fleld giving the sermon in the even- ing Ex-Pastor in Congregation Rev. F. L. Grant, who recently re- signed as pastor of the Congrogational church, sat with the congregation at the services yesterday morning. Mr. Grant will not assume the duties of his new position as pastor of the church in East Hampton until De- cember 1, and he will continue to malke his home here until about that time. The sermon yesterday was delivered by Rev. O. W. Barker of Hartford, who retired from regular activities in connection with the ministry, because of failing eyvesight Mr. Barker gave a most inspiring talk He was invited to preach again next Sunday. It is said that he is not a ecandidate for the appointment as pastor. Town Meeting Tonight. The questfon as to whether the town shall purchase the voting ma- chines used in the recent election or return to the Australian ballot will be decided at an adjourned special town meeting to be held tonight at 8 o’clock. The Automatic Register company, manufacturers of the apparatus, has set a price of $600 on each machine. In case the town should vote to buy them the $150 pald for the privilege of using them at the election will be applied on the purchase prce. With few exceptions, the voters seem to be well satisfied with the ma chines and it is expected that a vote to purchase them will be passed at the meeting. There may be some objection to their use on the grounds of economy, the opinion being held by certain taxpayers that the town cannot afford to spend the money re- quired for their purchase. About $200 has already been expended on the apparatus, the town having to pay ex- press charges and the expense of in- stallation in addition to the rental price. Rather than sacrifice this amount, it is believed many who might otherwise object to the pur- chase of the machines, for economical reasons, will support a resolution making them town property. The selectmen figure that an ad- ditfonal mill will have to be tacked to the tax rate to cover the cost of the machines. Neced Town Court. That the police question in Plain- ville can never be answered with any degree of satisfaction while the present svstem of disposing of court cases is in vogue is the opinion of First Select- man Johnson on whom has been thrown the big end of the burden few vears as a result of the agitation for the patrolling of the streets at night. lieves that Plainville is of sufficient size to have a town court, and while he may not take the initiative in the matter, it is probable that he would give his support to measures permit- ting of the appointment of a judge and prosecutor to serve in place of the jus- tices and grand jurors. The now in use here is almost archaic and is anything but satisfactory. It tends to disrupt organization among the constables and has the officers pulling against each other instead of working together, for little encouragement. The sclectmen have decided to re- «uest the constables to bid for the pa- trolman’s berth, the recent town meet- structions other than the mere order to have a policeman appointed.

In India we have nothing to conceal. Will you tell your country- men that?” The correspondent called attention to the changing policy occuring in ! Inda and to the fact that certain Indian politicians were advocating that still more of the affairs of gov- ernment be turned over to them. “No doubt at the present moment political problems are attracting the greatest attention both in and out of India,” replied the viceroy, “but none mistake to suppose are new problems whicn come up, or even dif- that these have recently | ferent problems from those on which we have worked in the past.
