Drs-The Annual Town Meeting for the election of Town Officers takes place on Monday next The Loco Focos made their nominations on Satur- day, and the Wings are to make theirs this tWed- nesday) afternoon. We could wish that party pol itcs might, in degree, be forgotten our To- cal elections. What matters it what views con- stable, grand juror, assessor, or even selectman entertains in regard to national politics, provided he is honest and faithful servant of the people }
 We are heartily sick of this everlasting strife a. bout petty offices, and trust the time may come, if not this year, when our best men, without regard to Polkism Clayism, Tariff or Texas, may be SC. lceted to attend to the financial and other concerns of the town.
 We trust every good citizen will be at the polls on Monday in good season, ready to discharge his duty as becomes an independent freeman, and de- posite his votes for such candidates, and such ony as are worthy of public confidence. It is highly important, too, that all should remain on the ground until all the officers, from assessors to grand jurors, chosen.

ANTI-RENT IN NEW MILFORD" THE MAN
 IN THE CORNER" IN THE MUD.

.Ne,c .1fiLf0yd. Sept. g. 1915.
 A dsgraceful fracus occurred in this town on Friday last, between Perry Smith, formerly U. S. Senator, and George Peck, who tenants farm near by.
 The former called at Peck's in the morning, and was very insulting and abusive. but the latter (who is by no means quarrefsome man) took little mo- tice of him. Smith repeated the visit in the after noon. and, repost says, grossly abused Peck with profane epthets and accusations, and then brushed his fist in his face and clenched in with him. Now comes the tug of war. The dgnitary soon found he had " caught Tartar" for Peck proceeded to lay the gentleman on his back. where the mud was several inches deep, and although the Senator swore and fought like tiger. Peck proved match for two like him; and soon Smith was glad to beg to be let up, pleading Justify the statute of limita tion, ,"-not, however. until hehad received most unmerciul thrsshing; at one time the dignitary found him lying in spring of water near by.
 As soon as up, Smith seized a cudget and at Peck again, whereupon the latter gave Smith second edition of the first lesson, revised and improved He then bid the Hon. Senator leave the pre- misses
