Morin called the meet- . |ing to order and Frank T. Preston was_elected as chairman and Frank A. Whipple as clerk: There was mo contest on anything excepting a slight flurry over electing W. I. Bullard, member of the state convention del cgation instead of W. H. Putnam, re- tiring chairman of the republican town committee, new living in Hartford and this was dQue to a lack of knowledge previous to the taking of the vote that Mr. Putnam desired to go to the state convention as a delegate. The delegations were selected as follows: _State—A. H. An n, William P. Kelley, Robert G. Smith, W. I Bullard; congressisonal—Hector McConnell, Timothy E. Hopkins, N, L. Greig, Edwin H. Keach: county—A. P. ‘Woodward, H. F. Glendining, Damase Roulias, Robert W. Boys; senatorial— Alma. Forcier, James N. Tucker, E. L. Darble, F. L. Miller. In commection with the election of the county delegation the caucus unanimously passed a resolution that “it is the sense of this caucus: that the candidacy of Edwin H. Keach of .| Denielson for sheriff be endorsed by the republicans of Killingly in_cau- cus assembled. Attorney E. L. Darble was elected chairman ‘of the républican town com- mittee to succeed W. H. Putnam, the other members of the committee be- ing_elected as follows: L. J. Morin, 5."S. Russell, F. L. Bennetf, Alma Forcier, Robert G. Smith and Arnold P.

Pendleton, inspector for the U8, department, will be in Daniélfon today (Tuesday) to make an inspection of the borough relative to ite gualififications for receiving a free deltvery service of mall, in ac- cordance with plans announced some time ago by Congressman Bryan F. Mahan. Inspector Pendleton will make 2 thorough inspection of the borough. It is unfortunate at this particular time that many of the street signs are down temporarily that they may be painted or replaced by new signs, ‘but this matter can be satisfactorily explained to the inspedtor. Regula- tions of the mostoffice department re- Guire that towns receiving free de- livery service of mail have street signs to designate all thoroughfares. This requiremapts has long been compiled with, the absence of the signs being only for the time being. Just what Mr. Pendelton’s report will be is, of course, imposstole of forecasting at this time, but the many anxious for free delivery service hope it will be favorable and that earriers will be put on_in Danielson as soon as can be convenlently arranged. MERELY COOLED MILK. But Ezra Burgess was Fined $20 and Costs in Town Court. In the town court Monday morning Ezra Burgess pleaded to having ‘water in milk and was fined $20 and costs, of about $9 by Judze J. Tucker. Prosecuting Attorney A. Bill said that the prosecution of M Burgess followed the taking of a sam of the milk in possession of Mr. lurgess on a recent day. This was followed by the summoning of Mr. Burgess to Hartford, where he made a statement to state officials, the action here following Monday. In explaining the matter Mr. Burgess admitted technical violation of the law, explain- ing that he had added a quart of water to 20 quarts of milk for the purpose of cooling the milk. He said he had heen carrying on the practice for about a year, but claimed he did not do it foy gain. TRADING STAMP QUESTION To be Disoussed Pro and Con at Session of Business Men’s Associa- tion.

Some of the members of the association, it s un- derstood, have entered into an agree- ment to give trading stamps or are contemplating doing so and this is held by those of the organization op- posed to giving stamps as a direct violation of one of the rules of the association. 1t is further, held by those ‘against giving stamps that a principad reason , that brought about the revival and reorganization of the Business Men’s association about two years ago was a desire to get that unity among the business interests of the borough that would allow the merchants to rid themsclves of the expense of giving premiums or stamps.

Thomas Tripp Said to Be Ready to Go to Jail When Viela Stromberg Does. On o charge of aduitery Thomes Tripp_and Viola Stromberg, both of this city, were arrested by Captain Murrey Menday, and in the afterncon were presented before Judge J. Harry Mann in the city court. They were represented by Attorney Charles L. Torrey as counsel. Both entered pleas of not guilty. Sufficlent evidence was introduced by the’ prosscution to war- rant the court Rolding them for the supérior~court, Judge Mann fixing the bonds in each instance at $300. No evidenee in refutation of that submit- ted by witnesses for the state was in- troduced for the defense. This is the second time that the Stromberg woman has been held on a charge, her previous arrest having brought her be- fore a justice’s court in the town of Brooklyn. She was ultimately acquit- ted. :r‘lll"be"gl‘:;:‘:ad that the present case of anri the September term of the superlor court which opens here today. It was stated at the police headquarters at § o'clock Monday evening that Mr. Tripp, who is a tinsmith here and is married, had declined an offer of his attorney to se- cure bonds for him, and that the couple would be taken to -Brooklyn jail at once. Harmeny in Republican Caucuses. The outstanding feature of the re- publican caucuses throughout the county Monday was the harmony Wwith which all of the business was trans: acted. There were no contests of im- portance. Strong men make up the delegations and most of thcee Who will 0 to the state convention of the perty from the towns in this section are men of. experlence and have in many cases held the highest offices that their party in their home towns can confer upon them. They are going to the conven- tion with open minds and all are very anxious to assist in the selection of the very strongest kind of a state ticket. No falk is heard of deals. Windham county is sending out a very strong [ siderahle of a controversy over the matter. Those opposed to stamps are oitter against the propesition of giv- ing them an added strength herc and are talking of seeking the rejection from the association of the men who are golng to give them. When thel business men favoring stamps heard of this they were not much jarred and made it known that they groposed to run their own business as they saw fit, regardless of what members op- posed to them on the stamp proposi- tion in the association might think about it. g A possible development of the cons troversy_if such it may be termed in its presént state of development, is a stamp war from which the buyers in this and surrounding towns may be presented a carniyal opportunity for collecting.> A merchants’ stamp as- sociation in threatened to offset the stamp offerings of the group of busi- ness men that are coming under fire in the premium matter. The claim is being set up that such a merchamts' combination can be made much strong- er. in point of the number of business men entered, than any stamp eom- pany- ean hope to get here and there- fore much more attractive for the col- lectors, giving them a wider local field of operation. In any event the trading stamp pro- position has again started something in the borough and before the threat- ened campaign is over ell the business men that get into the premium game are going to have an opportunity to |charge themselves up with some fat expense aceounts. Many of them know this—they have been through tha permium mill before—and afe not de- Ceiving themselves over what the amount of the extra {ax on _their business is to be. The gagie of giv- ing 56 stamps with a 5 cent handker- chief und charging 10 cents for the iot is known to all who have played the game, but there are a lot of them that do not want to play that way any more,- and then again some that do, Hence the stamp row.
