As a rule the demo- crats await the actions of the repub- licans, being the minority party, and take their cue from any mistakes that the G. O. P. may make. This time, however, they have chosen to play a lead card and while Chairman Min- ton A. Norton of the democratic town committee was remarkably quiet when broached as to the reason, the wise ones thought they saw the rea- son without calling a spy glass into use. William C. Hart, the livery man, has announced his candidacy and in- cidentally stated that he was out to win regardless of parties. The true | significance of this statement seems to be revealed through the early an- nouncement of the democratic cau- cus. It is assured that Mr. Hart's name will be presented for nomina- tion in the democratic caucus and The Materials include Gaberdine, Broadcloth, Wool Poplin, Whipcord and mixtures. are of messaline and satir that is recommended to wear.

This was freely predicted this morning and a stronger statement was made. It was confidently as- serted that he would be the next se- lectman. Mr. Hart personally feels that a vindication is due him. ‘He served the town :for years both as a con- stable and deputy sheriff and lost the later office through what is claimed to have been inside influences in his own party, the G. O. P. His friends firm- 1y believe this to be the truth and he will have strong backing when the caucus comes. The republican admin. istration of the past year has come in for some severe knocks and one doesn’t have to go out of his way to hear them. Those opposed to present system have picked Mr. Hart as the Moses to lead them out of the wilderness. If he secures the demo- cratic nomination the selectmanship fight will take place at the polls and not in” the republican caucus.
