The subject of widening the bridge on Cross Street, over the Lowell Railroad, was referred to this Board, with the evident expectation, on the part of the citi- zens, that the work could be done without expense to the town. Nine bridges cross this railroad in Somer- ville, nearly all of which can very properly be desig- nated as nuisances. To make expensive alterations upon any one of them, before a general plan for the improvement of the whole can be agreed upon, appears now to be unwise. Some require raising, others lowering, and all of them widening ; and it is clear that the best method for overcoming the difficulties which surround the matter, will be to act in concert with the Lowell Railroad Corporation. It is thought
19
by many that the interests of the town would be promoted most by the lowering of the railroad within our limits, thus permitting Washington Street to pass it on the same level, and allowing all the bridges crossing it to be placed in their proper position with reference to the grade of other streets.
Within the year, gas pipes have been extended to the top of Winter, Central and Prospect Hills, so that the larger portion of our citizens can now enjoy the advantages and luxury of gas light. In order that the town may be able to act understandingly, whenever the question of lighting its streets shall come before it, the Selectmen have ascertained that the expense of providing fifty suitable lamps,-the smallest number consistent with the rightful local claims of those residing on the lines of these pipes,-would be in the neighborhood of $1,000; and the annual expense for gas, including the charge for lighting, would not much exceed $500.
Four suits have been instituted against the town, by members of the "Stearns family," to recover taxes paid into the treasury by them for the last two years; but it is believed that a valid defence can be made to the claim which it is understood will be set up. The parties to this movement are non-residents ; became possessed of estates in the town by inheritance; have contributed nothing to the improvement of lands which but a few years ago were estimated as of little value; appear to have no adequate conception of the importance which the enterprise of our own citizens has given to this property; refuse to part with it at the valuation of the assessors ; and yet claim that this valuation is unjust and illegal. If, under any circum-
20
stances the courts should decide in their favor,-a very improbable result,-it is in the power, as it would be the duty, of the town, to render such a decision virtually inoperative.
It seems hardly necessary to call especial attention to the condition of the Fire Department, which has continued efficient and orderly, as the citizens have reason always to expect, from the character of the men comprising the present organization. The town stable was fired by an incendiary, on the 28th of March last, causing a loss, beyond the amount received for insurance, of about $500. Fires have been less frequent with us than in other years, and the disposition to commit acts of incendiarism, it is to be hoped, has ceased alto- gether. This is unquestionably partly attributable to the vigilance exercised by some of our fellow-towns- men, a large number of whom have been appointed by this Board as special police officers, with the express understanding that they would be watchful of the movements of parties suspected of any criminal design in this direction.
A substantial, commodious and convenient fire-proof room has been placed in the building used for a town hall, and the premises have been otherwise somewhat improved as well as beautified, at an expense in all not exceeding $400.
The lot connected with the Cherry Street School house-as directed by the town at its April meeting- has been graded, and the foundation of that building repaired.
A portion of the fence around the burial ground on Milk Street,-the property of individuals, who have to this time allowed the public to make use of it for
21
interments,-has been rebuilt at the charge of the town, the Selectmen believing this to be due to the proprietors. There remains but little room for further public burials in this place, and ere long the lot on Broadway-purchased for the purpose in 1846-must be dedicated for use, unless our citizens shall judge it to be expedient to make some other provision for that object.
Early in the spring, efforts were made to abate the sale of intoxicating liquors, and with a degree of success which warrants the belief, that this practice can, with no great difficulty, be entirely abolished, whenever the major part of our citizens shall instruct the Selectmen to accomplish that end, and shall them- selves exhibit a reasonable degree of earnestness in the matter.
The Somerville Horse Railroad Company have com- pleted about four and a half miles of track by the side of the road, for the running of their cars, upon Broad- way, Washington, Milk and Elm Streets, connecting at Charlestown with the Middlesex Railroad, and since July last furnishing half-hourly communication with the city of Boston. So far, this has fully answered the expectations of our citizens, and many of the most discerning among them feel confident that the con- veniences thus afforded will have the effect of adding largely to the future prosperity of the town. The subject of laying a new track in the direction of East Cambridge is now under consideration; and this, if accomplished, will better accommodate the inhabitants of that part of our territory bordering on Cambridge, and furnish more ready access than is now enjoyed by any town within the Commonwealth.

Considering the depression in every kind of busi- ness which marked the commencement of the year, it was hardly to be expected that much would be done towards increasing the number of buildings, until a more favorable season should arrive, and our com- munity had been able to recover from the effects of the then recent monetary derangement. It nevertheless appears that nearly a hundred dwelling houses have been erected within the year, and it is probable that during this time there have been added to our popula- tion from four to five hundred persons. The means of frequent communication with Boston now afforded to our citizens ; the freedom from tolls of every avenue leading to that city ; the low price of the most desir- able sites for residences ; and the general improvement in every department of business; combined with the numerous other advantages acknowledged to be in our possession, afford good reasons for believing that the coming year will witness a still larger addition to the population and wealth of the town.
