HIGHWAY DEPARTMENT.
HIGHWAYS AND BRIDGES.
JOSEPH A. HUCKINS, SUPERINTENDENT.
The town having voted at the annual town meeting, to do away with the district highway surveyor system and to have the Selectmen appoint a superintendent of streets, Mr. Jos. A. Huckins was appointed to that position, and took charge April 1st. What was known as the Central district No. 1 was enlarged by reaching out into the adjacent districts and the whole of old district No. 3 was added to No. 1. With the above changes in lines, it was de- cided by the Superintendent to take personal charge of the large central district, and to appoint the old surveyor of the other dis-

tricts to act as foremen under him. To the end that each section of the town might know how much of the highway appropriation was expended in that section, the superintendent was instructed to keep separate accounts of all monies expended.
The following tables show the expenditure in the several districts.

It will be seen from the above table that in districts No. 1-2- 3-6-11-12-13-14-15, more work was done in 1907 than in 1906. Of the districts which expended less than last year, it can be said that in district 8 the amount expended in 1906 was larger than usual, as a special appropriation was given to widen the road. In district No. 9, the state highway covered a large section of the district in 1907, and the town had less road bed to care for. In the other districts, the reason that less money was expended in 1907 than in 1906, was that those living in the district could not agree in some cases as to who should do the work, and in other districts because those living in those districts would not work. Every district foreman was told that he could expend an amount equal to that which he had as sur- veyor, and if it was not done, it was the fault of those in the dis- trict. As shown above, most of the districts fared better under the superintendent of streets than they did under the surveyor system. Those who argued that the outlying districts would not receive a fair share of the money under the new system, will find that the figures show them to be wrong.
