George Guirey's Death—Concert at Attawaugan. ‘Warden William H. Marland, in his annual report as wi of the bor- ough of jelson reviews a year marked by many events of unusual im- portance to this community, a year in which, despite business ds and other handicapping circumstances, Danielson has advanced its municipal conveniences and opened its gates to visiting thousands on the oc- caslon of the 200th anniversary of the organization of Killingly as a town. Warden Harland says part “During the past year several im- portant events have taken place in the history of the borough. e celebra- tion of Killingly’s bicentennial wiil long be remembered by our citizens. I feel sure it will be of great benefit to us in the future, for it has given us desirable publicity. The dedication of Killingly High school was a matter of im- portance for she welfare of the bor- ough, for we now have ‘modern home (of which we are justly proud) with a superior equipment for the education and training of ourtgunl people, fit- ting them @ be worthy citlzens of this great republic. “The opening of the Y. M. C. A. 1s also one of the year's important hap- penings, for through it we help to de- velop the moral and physical fibre of cur young people and 80 equip them to do their share of the world's work. 1 believe that every dollar spent in this manner will pay large dividends to the nation. Important Interests. “This year also had its municipal in. terests. When I took up the duties of warden tiae borough indebtedness was $8,126.45; 1t Is mow °*°4,707.12, an in- crease of $18,680.67, for which we hava to show various improvements and ex- tensions as follows: A hnufllnirl.ot. at & cost of $2,400, for the new sta- tion; a model central fire station that is second to mnone in any borough in New England of the size of Danielson, for which we have paid, to March 22, $10,991.67; an electric firm alarm tele- graph system, with all the latest im- provements, installed by the Gamwell company, at a cost of 32,676, and an extension of our sewer system a dis- tance of 674 feet through Winter street, at a cost of $944.98. Borough Revenues. “The borough Income from taxes and other sources for the past year was $10,827.31, showing that if it had not been for the new Improvements and extensions the Indebtedness would have been materially reduced. Interest due on all loans to April 1 has been paid. Approximately a saving of oue thousand dollars could have been made during the past year were it not neces- sary to use that amount to meet in- terest charges on heavy loans. Actual Saving. ‘The actual saving out of last year's receipts was $430.88, besides the in- terest pald on loans. A total amount of $17,011.55 was pald out during the year. 1 would like to suggest to our taxpayers that in view of their having the use of the valuable improvements enumerated the{ ought to be willing not only to pay for their efficient main- tenance but also to pay a little towards their cost, and I hope they will bear this in mind when they lay the annual tax and give my successor in office an opportunity, with economical manage- ment, to pay the running expenses or the borough and reduce some of our outstanding notes. Sewer Building. “At a special borough meeting held Nov. 27, 1908, the warden and court of burgesses were instructed to build a very necessary plece of sewer In the southern part of the borough, but ow- ook no further action than engaging Charles E, Francis to make the requi- site survey prior to advertising for Dids, “At a special borough meeting held Jan. 7, 1909, we were Instructed to sign a contract with the Crystal Water company for hydrant service, which we did. “I hope that at an early date the borough will take action towards own. ing its own water supply. A water works company is a natural monopoly and monopolies should be owned by the people. gressive citles and boroughs are getting control of their own water supplies, for it has been economically managed. Future Hopeful, “I feel very hopeful in regard to the borough's future. During the past vear I have had many opportunities of meeting taxpayers on matters concern- ing the borough and I have invarfably found them public spirited- and willing to help along the good work, even when it was at their own expense. In con- ou for the honor con- ferred upon me by having been elected to be your warden.” Advocates Ownership of Water Sys- tem. Warden Marland is very much inter- ested in the matter of the borough purchasing the water system from the Crystal Water company, bejieving it to be for the best interests of the peo- ple that they hould own it. He has given the question due consideration and may make some recgmmendations relative to the purchase at the annual meeting on April 12. Higher Tax Needed. ‘Warden Marland also believes that generations that create municipal debts are responsible in no small de- gree for the pagment of at least a fair part of the obligations they assume. Therefdre he recommends that when the tax is laid for the coming year it should be sufficient to produce a reve- nue ample to meat all the expenses and interest charges the borough will be called upon to meet as well as to allow of paying at least one thoysand dollars on the total indebtedness, &nd this rate of yeatly reduction should be contin- leges and protection that have come with the improvements that created this past year's extraordinary expendi- tures, FORESTRY HER THEME.
