Mildrum, aines and Wils place he in H to POSTMASTER H. L. PORTER. Postmaster Porter is a Civil war veteran and has filled the office since McKinley 1dministration and these wets lead many to the belief that a change is not desirable. Mr. Good- rich held the oflice once, having been appointed during the second adminis- tration of Cleveland. During his regime, the affairs we conducted well and the fact he has always been an.ardent supporter of the principles of the democratic party seems to give him the inside track at present. There seems to be no question but that Mr. Goodrich will receive the support of the democratic town committee, but the friends of Postmaster Porter feel petition with a large number of citizens' names on it might give him chance to retain the office. Post- Porter’'s term will expire in re a master July. To Raise Light Funds About twenty- e at St. Paul's Parish ton last night to consider means for street light maintenance. James J. Fitzsimmons was chosen chairman of the meeting. The American Paper Goods company en- tered into a contract for ten street lights between the depot and its tory about five years ago. The com- pany has always paid one-half of the bill, the remainder being paid by public subscription The contract cxpires in October and those inter- csted believe in being prepared for a renewal.
