Larvrly Attended CaMoms.


aLargeiy Attended Caucus.
The City Hall was well filed with repub-
cleans Friday evening when Chairman fenry
Greene OF She city committee called tho
caucus to order and reod the call. W. L.
Burnap was elected chairman and w. b.
Gates secretary. Mr.. Bucnap referred to
the enthusiasm manifested in the Gay con-
ysntion and said that nominations for
mayor were in order. U. A. " oodbury
said that while the republicans Of Burling-
ton had no word 10 say against Mayor Has-
elton personally, the principles OF the repub-
lcan party demanded a candidate for the
coming election The democrats were
not In tho habit Of complimenting
republican mayors by making no opposition
to their re election and there was no reason
why Burlington which be believed to be "A
republican cry, should not have repuEi-
csn mayor. With the support Oh united
party such mayor could be elected. He
nominated E.sas Lyman as IA representative
republican.
Nr. Lyman said that he had no inclna-
ton to run Cor mayor and the candiuacy
was not OF bis seeking. Sat he had never
gone back on the party sud il he was now
wanted, ne was willing 10 serve. ills cleo

THAT CANNING FACT DRY.



1t will he remembered that some time ago
quite extended reference was made to the
advisability and practicabilty of estab-
lIshing "A canning factory in this city. The
con cuson reached was that there was no
reason why such an establishment should
not b., Just IS successful here as in Massa-
chusatts or western or northern New York.
c. W Scarf has ju.t returned from a trip
to Bo,ton and other points in that vicinity,
now located about II miles outside OF Bos
ton, and this firm has made proposition
which he feels sure be can fulfil. In the words
of MIR Scarf, he considers it practically
an assured thing AS to the reason why
the proprietors OF the factory want to move
from their pre- emit location, they say thet
during part of the year when prices are
high IN Boston, tine producers OF vegetables
and growers of fruit pass right by the doors
OF the factory and go to tho city. The con
Germ does good business there but it can
not meet the demand for goods on this &C
count. The Arm has capacity for doing a
business OF about 80, 900 year. There is
another canning factory in northern New
ed with favorable results. Tie plan Is to
consolidate these two concerns.
One Of the pT1prietors OF the overall fac
tory in he southern part of the State, 10

morrow to zoe what the people Of the Queen
