Pretty soon there will be three more
officers for the hungry hangers on OF the
Republican party i'm this town, and al
ready those who think the people owe
them a living and who have not yet had
their appetites appeased by the present
administration, are gathering like sharks
around the body ofan unfortunate victims
whom they consider their legal prey.
This Spring the terms OF the present
Board OF License Commissioners will ex-
pire, and OF course they will not be re-
appointed. There are only three com
missioners this year and there can only
be three next, but there are a dozen appli-
cants for each position and there will
probably be some lively hustling between
the contestants for the offices, especially
the salaries, as the Republicans OF this
town are not and never have been serving
the town for love, but for what they can
get out OF it. Love OF country, or in
other words interest in the welfare of the
town, which is part of the makeup OF
an ordinary citizen, is net always upper
most in the minds of a majority of Lin
coins Republican leaders.
There is a certain class of them who
have always been on the lookout for
snaps in the offices under the town gov
ernment, and il must be said, judging
from present appearances, have succeed
ed pretty well.
Usually it is the custom To select for
public officers men who have made a sue
cess of their own business enterprises.
Such has not been the case in this town.
Men who have never engaged in any busi-
ness have held Off ces for years. Let the
fight for offices go on; the people see it
and grow more disgusted every day with
the participants.
The New uniforms.
The Temperance Cadets are now hold
ing fair for the purpose of securing the
whorewithal to purchase new uniforms
which they intend to have in time to
appear in line in them, on st. Patrick's
day.
The uniforms now worn by the Cadets
are blue with.white belt and leggings and
blue cap with a white band. The new
equipments will be of gray material and
will be made in the same style as the
present regalia.
But short time ago the company pur-
chased new rifles of the latest pattern, at
a cost OF little less than $1,000. The
firearms are models in their line and with
the new uniforms there will be no more
finely equipped or better drilled company
| I'm New England.
The banquet committee have sent invi-
tations TO all the old members and those
who have so far answered, have accepted.
| Tickets are only sold to members or those
| who have been, and the affair will bring
back pleasant memories, one not soon to
be forgotten.
