The assessors made oath to their valuation of the town's taxable property riday morning. The list of 1911 was $8.- 121,173. As stated in Friday's Fulletin, the committee on revaluati:n has aimed to place property in the list at its present full market value. They state that for the most part, owners of property have shown a desire o co- operate with them in.a fair ani frank manner in giving them the facts that would lead to correct ‘conclusion tax commissioners, Dr. George I cox, George E. Hatch and J. G. plane, in a public statement Friday over their signatures, contain this statement: 2 “We have not manufactured l.nd values but have assessed them as we found them and in many sections ‘h- prevailing prices were a sur, to the commission. The prevailingz prices paid as indicated by recent sales, the concensus of owners' values and where land was well covered with i provements the income derived afier apportioning a fair share for such im- provements, were fruitful sources of information and from thesec ade 8- sessed value was made. No thrce hu- man beings can make an assessment of the taxable property that is abso- lutely just, they can only approach the spot and this we have tried teo do without fear or favor. If errors of Judement have occurred, and doabt- less they have, we will be pleased to see them corrected.” There ara this vear shown in the western resident division 1354 lists: non-resident lists 139: east division, resident. non- resident, This makes a al of 1889 lists in all, or about 160 more than there were in 1911.

DANIELSON Big New Yarn Mill for Connecticut Mills Company If Site Is Obtainable —Central Village to Have Fire Pro- tection—Fine Concert—Funeral of Mrs. John Hyde. With a little co-operation from a few parties that are in a position ta sive it, Danlelson stands to get an- other fine new industry soon. This is a yarn manufacturing plant at the plant of the Connecticut Mills com- pany at Industrial place. In that section of Industrial place between the Mechanics street exten- sion and the rallroad tracks and in the vicinity of the two present mills are 32 house lots that were disposed of to various persons when the Indus- trial and Manufacturing company be- gan its development scheme there at the time the mills were built. Twen- ty-two of these lots are owned by Damase Boulias and Frank A. Davis, who came into 'Dossession of them through claims that they held against the development company. The other dozen lots are held by individuals. The Connecticut Mills company4 wants' some agreement whereby they can secure title to the lots, that they may erect upon the area a yarn manu- facturing mill. At present this won- derfully prosperous plant, wMch in a little more than a vear has grown so that it gives employment to about 185 and has a payroll in excess of $2,200 a week, buys its yarns. The time has come when it would be advan- tageous to make it here and Lhis is what it is proposed to do if some co- operation can be secured from the owners of the houselots in question. Working quietly for a few days past the matter has received careful con- sideration from leading business in- tereste and indications are that the plan can be put through unless some selfish interest develops and attempts a holdup stand that will knock the whole proposition in the head. The investigation underway, however, has indicated a general willingness on the part of those who can help bring suc- cess to the project to bend every en- ergy to that end thet Danielson as a whole may be benefited, though some losses be taken in individual cases. Here 1s a chance to help a fine in- dustry to develop, they say, and we are for it. It is learned that the erection of the proposed yarn mill would mean an Increase In the company's payroll to a total of approximately $300,000 a vear. The payroll is close to $125,- 000 ang growing all the time. The plants are running day and night and have been for months, paying & high- er scale of wages than is usual in the cotton manufacturing industry. If arrangements can be made to get the land wanted, the new mill will be put up and when it is in operation the number of emploves of the com- pany will be doubled. It was stated here Friday that it is hoped to reach some definite deelsion in the matter by the first of the coming month. Central Village Wants Fire Department Realizing what might have happened had a fire that started there on a re- cent night got beyond control, the cit- izens of Central Village are to have a meeting in the town hall next Tuesday evening to secure subscriptions for buying fire fighting apparatus and do ing other work incident to the organ- ization of a fire department, some im- portant steps in that direction having already been taken.
