JASON TOWER. Franklin.
Franklin, Feb. 10, 1874.
In preparing the foregoing Report it has been the purpose of the Auditor to examine carefully the items and each entry under the several classes of accounts, and place the same before the Town in such form as shall meet the requirements of the vote passed by the Town at their annual meeting, March 3, 1873.
As a matter of convenience, I have followed the classification of accounts already adopted by the Treasurer-and after exam- ining four hundred and forty-two bills found but a single error of less than a dollar, and that in favor of the Town. The only suggestion which the Auditor will presume to make for the fu- ture, is to reduce the amount of bills under the head of Miscel- laneous.
In this connection I wish to asknowledge the uniform courtesy and kindness of the Town Treasurer, A. A. Russegue, Esq. ; also of the Chairman of Board of Selectmeu and Overseers, J.
39
M. Freeman, Esq., both of which gentlemen were ready to fur- nish information and explanation whenever requested by the Auditor. WALDO DANIELS, Auditor.

REPORT OF THE SELECTMEN ON THE RE- PAIRS OF TOWN ROADS BY ROAD COM- MISSIONERS.
GENTLEMEN : - Your Board of Selectmen, instructed at the last annual March meeting to make inquiries relative to the dif- ferent methods adopted by towns for the repairing of highways. and the practical working of the same, have attended to the duty assigned them. and submit the following report :-
We find the methods of the different towns somewhat varied, yet tending to the same point, namely, the concentrating of the power in fewer hands than formerly, and the continuing of said power in the same hands for a series of years. when not imprac- ticable. We have been able. during our inquiries, to find but three towns that have adopted the act relating to Road Commis- sioners. In one of these towns the act is still continued, and the people like it very much-say they get better roads with the same appropriations than under previous systems. In the other two towns the act was discontinued after being in operation for one year. In one of those towns it was admitted that more la- bor was obtained by the commissioner system than by the old surveyor system ; but the taxpayers concluded that they had rather work out their own taxes, so they rallied and abolished the act.
In the other town it worked well; but through jealousy that too much money might be laid out in some localities, and not enough in others. the town returned to the old system. In many
40
towns the Selectmen have charge of the highways, and are made responsible for the faithful expenditure of the appropria- tions made by the towns ; in other towns the Selectmen are authorized to appoint one or more Surveyors to act as Superin- tendents of Highways. The above are the systems which are in operation in most of the towns of the Commonwealth.
These systems may all be good with a practical head to exe- cute them. They may all be bad with an impractical head. In conclusion we would say any system the town may adopt for the repairs of its highways. will be inefficient, unless you have a practical head - a head made responsible for the faithful ex- penditure of all appropriations. A good practical head. with good laborers. good materials and good appropriations. will construct good roads under any of the above systems.

REPORT OF THE DIRECTORS OF FRANK- LIN LIBRARY ASSOCIATION.
At the annual March Meeting, 1873. the Town appropriated the sum of $161 16. the amount then in the Treasury from the licensing of dogs, and granted the further sum of $150 00, and so much of the sums as may be required. to be applied for the current expenses of the Franklin Library Association.
The Directors have drawn from the Treasury during the fis- cal year ending Jan. 31. 1874, for current expenses. details of which appear in the proper place in the annual Town Report, the sum of 8278 67. and have paid into the Treasury the am't. received from sale of Catalogues. &c., $32 37 ; making total
41
expense to the Town $246 30; leaving unexpended of the ap- propriation, a balance of $64 86 in the Treasury.
By notice given by the Librarian, the books loaned were or- dered in on the 27th of December, 1873, for inspection by the Committee. On careful examination, the books were found in quite good condition, and all accounted for but ten volumes, some of which may yet be returned.
From the record kept by the Librarian. it appears that 425 persons have drawn books during the eleven months ending Jan. 31, 1874. Whole number of volumes loaned, 6830. Col- lected from sale of Catalognes, &c .. $32 37. The Directors, through their committee, have purchased during the year one hundred and eighty-two volumes, of which number thirty-five volumes were to replace worn-out and missing books, and one hundred and forty-seven new works-all of which have been re- corded with their respective. numbers, and the cost of each book. Total amount expended for new books, $202 74, which has been paid from the Dean Fund.
The whole number of books belonging to the Library Asso- ciation, and which are on the Catalogue issued in April, 1873, and a supplement added in December, 1873, is 1348. To these add those belonging to the Town, 475 volumes, making a total of 1823 volumes, which are kept for the free use of the citizens of the Town.
The Association have also a large number of books, public documents, &c., not included in Catalogues, and which will be available for use when better accommodations can be secured. By comparing the statistics of the Library operations with those of preceding years, we think that it will readily be seen that the interest of the public has increased constantly, and that the de- mand for reading matter in the future will continue.
The Association has now in its treasury, $297 26, to be ex- pended for books only-and will receive during the coming year
42
an additional amount of $250-but the accommodations now furnished at the schoolroom for the Library are decidedly strait- ened and cannot be enlarged in that location. Under these cir- cumstances it will be impossible to make additions to any con- siderable extent, until the Library can be removed to more convenient and roomy quarters.
If the Library should be retained in its present location, it will be unnecessary to ask for a larger appropriation by the Town for the year 1874 than was granted last year. We think. how- ever, that better accommodations should be secured at the earli- est practicable date, in order that the entire number of books of the Association may be made available for the use of the public, and that the Directors may be enabled to add, from time to time, new and popular works, as they are published.
By Order of Directors,

ANNUAL REPORT OF THE ENGINEERS OF THE FIRE DEPARTMENT.
The following is the property connected with the Fire Depart- ment :
FRANKLIN ENGINE NO. ONE.
1 Hose Carriage, 350 feet Rubber Hose, 100 feet Leather Hose, 2 lengths of Suction Ilose, 2 Rubber Buckets, 8 Belts, 10 Span- Ders, 1 Axes, 1 Wheel Jack, 5 Lanterns, 2 Oil Cans, 1 Trough for oiling hose, 1 Brush, 5 Firemen's Hats, 1 Trumpet.
ONE HOOK AND LADDER CARRIAGE.
6 Ladders. 28 Buckets. 2 Axes. 4 Poles, 1 Iron Bar, 3 Hooks and Chains. 1 Engine House. 10 Settees. 1 Table, 2 IIanging Lamps. 6 Spittoons. 2 Stoves and Pipe.
CATARACT ENGINE NO. TWO.
1 Hose Carriage, 300 feet Rubber Hose, 100 feet Leather Hose, 100 feet Canvas Hose. 4 Lengths Suction Hose. 6 Belts, 12 Spanners, 2 Axes, 4-Lanterns, 1 Signal Lantern, 1 Engine House. 6 Settees, 4 .Chairs, 1 Table, 3 Lamps, 2 Stoves and Pipe, 6 Spittoons. 1 Flag, 1 Trumpet.
The fires the past year have been slight, with one exception ; the burning of Mr. F. B. Ray's Felt Mill. The first alarm in May. was caused by the burning of a stack of hay, near the house of Mr. Michael Shay. Company No. 1 were promptly on the ground and did good service in protecting Mr. Shay's build- ings from fire. The second alarm was caused by the burning of Mr. F. B. Ray's Felt Mill, on the evening of July 1st. Engine Co. No. 2, were on the ground promptly, and Co. No. 1 being immediately notified, responded to the call, and arrived quickly. but, owing to the combustible natute of the building, they were unable to save it. but. through the great exertions of the firemen, they saved some of the valuable machinery in the mill, and all the surrounding buildings, although some of them were within a few feet of the mill. The third alarm was from Morse & Waite's
44
Felt Mill, July 22d. Company No. I were prompt to respond to the call, and the fire was extinguished with but slight damage. October 14th an alarm came from Mr. Samuel Whiting's Batting Mill. Company No. 2 were on the ground immediately, and the fire was put out, doing but little damage.
The cisterns are all in good order, and four of them full of water, and the other one nearly full.
The apparatus in the Fire Department is all in good running order, except the Engine Houses, which your Board of Engi- neers would recommend the Town to enlarge, and build Hose Towers; as in their present condition there is no place to take off the hose and keep it from going to waste, and thereby mak- ing it necessary for the Town to expend a large sum to replace it.
