Dear Sir:
The  Town   of  Hemjistetid owns a 1 fir^^t,   second,   fourth  and fifth jdaces, large   amount  of   meadow   land;   also | winning the heifer and UK) cigars, about two miles of beach.    This   Jirop-j "     ~
erty   will become more and more valu-1 Friday   able   each   year,   and in order that the j I town may reajj the henetit its   citizens' must display some interest in the mat¬ ter. I We think that no moiv leases  should j be   nuule   until   the lands are surveyed I and carefully ajijiraised, such ajijiraisa! to   be   the minimum rent.    Then lease to the highest bidder at jnililic auction, under   terms   e-;tablishe(i   by the Town Board, sjieiiflc and biisinesi-like.
Years ago the meiidow land was not valuable, and a system of leasing at very low rentals was adniitcd, which it is hard to change, without co-operation of the citizens and the Town Board. At Jiresent many desirable plots are tieil up for a long term at iiisignifictint rentals because of the value ot   fifteen
