What was Said and Done at 
Manchester Town Meeting: 
Promptly at 9 o’ clock the meeting was 
called to order by Town Clerk A. S. 
Jewett, there being about 50 voters pres- 
ent. After the reading of the Town 
Warrant of 62 articles Art. 1, “‘to 
choose a moderator,’’ was taken up. 
Seventy-four votes were cast, 59 for R. 
C. Allen and 15 for “Ci sCGibaage: 
Mr. Allen was then sworn in by the 
town clerk, and in accepting the office 
Mr. Allen thanked the voters for the ex- 
pression of confidence and promised to 
transact the business of the office in as 
faithful and expeditious a manner as 
possible. 
The tellers, —T.) Cag RGwewe bs: 
Stone, W. W. Hoare and G. E. 
Willmonton, appointed by the select- 
men, and W. R. Bennett and R. J. 
Baker appointed by the moderator, were 
then sworn in by the moderator. 
It was voted that all the unexpended 
balances of last year be recovered to the 
treasury. 
Art. 3. On motion of E. P. Stanley 
it was voted that the polls be open at 12 
m. and not close until 5.30, for the 
election. 
Art. 2. It was voted on motion of 
N. P. Meldrum that the report of the 
Water Commissioners be accepted, and 
that the first four of the recommenda- 
tions of the commissioners be assigned to 
7.30 this evening. . 
Art. 46. Salaries. It was voted on 
motion of C. O. Howe that this article 
come up for consideration at 8 o'clock 
this evening. 
Art. 2. Reports. The reports of 
the various committees and town officers 
werethentaken up and the reports in every 
instance were accepted. 
‘The first discussion of any import was 
at the instance of the Sand Agent’ s report, 
when E. P. Stanley said he understood a 
party from Beverly Farms had been tak- 
ing sand from the beach without paying 
for it and lately he had been taking it fo 
filling in avenues. He didn’t thing iv 
ought to be allowed. t 
Park Comms. Howe and Beaton both 
said they hadn’t heard of this, the latter 
saying there was a contractor who at- 
tempted to haul sand from the beach in 
connection with building an avenue off 
Beach street. Six loads had been hauled 
but no more. 
Other discussions followed and a 
motion by E. P. Stanley ‘‘that the park 
commissioners be instructed to allow no 
out of town contractors to remove sand 
from the beach or any parties to remove 
sand out of town’’ lead to still more. 
D. T. Beaton. ‘‘Sand is not coming 
into the beach as fast as it is being taken 
away. I think some action ought to be 
taken to prohibit anybody from taking 
sand from the beach.
