NSINGTON.

Although the spring municipal election of
Kensington is several weeks away, the
political robins have already begun to
chirp. Last year at the first election since
the village was incorporated an effort was
made to disregard party lines and nom-
nate single citizens ticket. The plan
was unsuccessful, for a new ticket made
its appearance on the eve of the election,
and the feeling engendered by the hot
contest has not entirely died away. A
proposition is on foot to have each cam
didate for mayor or the council announce
himself as such by deposit of fifty cents
with the town clerk, that officer to print
the ticket thus named a week before cleo
ton. This is in general the plan adopted
by the democratic electors throughout the
county, but its adoption seems to be doubt
full A list of voters living within the cor
poration has been made out, in which both
parties have about equal strength, but
personal and other considerations will
make it a free-for-all race. Thomas r.
Martin, the present mayor, has declined to
become a candidate for reelection, owing
to the press of private interests. William
H. Mannakee, democrat, now council
man, is understood to be out for nominal
ton mayor. George Peter, agent of the
Baltimore and Ohio democrat, and a
councilman, has announced his intention
to make the race. DR.. John L. Lewis,
democrat, is also spoken of in this connec-
ton, and also for councilman, as is E. J..
HardeSty. Among the republicans the two
most prominently mentioned for the
mayorality are Dr. r. B. DERRICK and
Marion Dorian, but neither one has an
nounced definite intention of becoming a
candidate. Mr.. j. H. Fishback is intend
ing to make the run for reelection for
councilman, while George w. Duvall is a
new candidate for that office. A private
caucus to select nominees on both sides is
a probable event in the near future.
Rev. Robert NJ. Moore, being absent at
tending the Methodist conference at Balti-
more, Rev. G. w. T. Wright will occupy
the pulpit in st. PauTs NJ. E. Church on
Sunday morning next.
Mr.. A. NJ. Proctor of Capitol View met
with an accident from an explosion of his
furnace few days ago. He had en-
deavored to coax up low fire by means of
a cupful of coal oil. Some moments later,
when he opened the furnace door, he was
met with sudden burst of flames, which
burned his clothes, the right side of his
face and his right hand.
