The Massachusctts legislature in 1926 passed enabling legislation per- mitting the railroad to acquire con- trol and manage the street railways. Three-fourths of the cities and towns in the territory served by the lines, including the two principal cities, had to approve the acquisi- tion. It did not take the railroad long to gain approval of the fowns, especlally as the railroad the “re- promised to spend millions in habilitating” the systems.

Vare, has been “duly chesen by the qualified electors’ of the commonwealth.” Instead the governor departed from the customary form of such certificate and informed Vice-Presi- dent Dawes that Mr. Vare “appears to have beer chesen” as senator, The governor said that he could not eertify Mr. Vare had been “duly chosen,” reiterating his belief that his nomination was “partly bought and partly stolen” and that “frauds committed in his interest had tainted both the primary and the general election.” Mr. Pinchot asserted that he word- ed the cc.tificate of election, re- quired by law, so that he could sign it *“without distorting the truth” in view of his conviction that the elec- tion returns *‘do not in faet correct- ly represent the will of the voters.” READ HERALD CLASSIFIED ADS FOR YOUR WANT., Grandmother knew there was nothing so good fer eon« gestion and colds as mustard.
