Republican Caucuses.

The Republicans Of Belfast met in caucus
Friday evening at the Court House and
nominated candidates for Mayor and city
officers, with the exception of the ward
tickets in wards and 5, where caucuses
We're held Thursday evening. DIR. Fletcher
called the caucus to order; NJ. p. Woodcock
was chosen chairman and e. II. COnant
clerk. Judge George E. johnson addressed
the convention briefly, stating that the city
committee had PERFORMED their duty in call
ing the caucuses, and were now present as
citizens. He voiced the sentiment of all the
Republicans present when he said that he
wanted to see the best men obtanable uom-
mated, and business like administration of
city affairs. He moved that Dr. John NJ.
Fletcher be nominated for mayor by accla-
nation, and the motion was seconded and
carried unanimously. The caucus then ad-
iourned for wards l, =, and to hold their
caucuses These We're harmonious and
unanimous with the exception of a contest
over the school committee man in ward l.
A. e. Slbley, Esq, had served one term and
was nominated for reelection. John r.
Dunton, Esq, was also Iut in nomination,
and was elected on the first ballot by vote
23 to % for Mr.. Sibley. This was somewhat
of a surprise, as Mr.. Sibley is not only recog-
nized as a very public spirited citizen, but
one who has shown great interest in the
schools and devoted much valuable time to
the committee work. Mr.. Dunton has been
successful teacher and school superinten-
dent and was put in nomination by his
friends because of his undoubted qualifca-
tions for the position. Mr.. Dunton declined
to run, however, and it devolved upon the
city committee to fill the vacancy. They
endeavored to get Mr.. Sibley to accept, but
he positively declined, and suggested Rev
Geo. S. Mills, pastor of the Congregational
church. Mr.. Mills accepted and will be a
very valuable man on the board. Following
is the result of the nominations in the ward
caucus:

Tramps in Monroe.

While the number of tramps who We're
given food and provided with lodging 10y the
town of Monroe the past ear greatly ex-
ceeded that of any previous year, it would
appear from the large mum ber of tramps
who are this year almost daily accepting
the hospitality of the town that before the
season ends small army of them will have
registered on the book which officer Jerry
Bowen keeps for the autographs of those
classified as tramps. The town allows Off
Ger Bowen pay for the food lie serves to each
tramp, and the large number (64) who We're
supplied by him during the year would
indicate that the food is of the best quality
1t is often asked by the residents of Mon
roe, why is it that many tramls come to
this town? Why is it that after they have
from there to Monroe for the purpose of be-
ing carried back? The only answer is that
there must be a string htched to them, and
it ought to be somebody 8 business to see that
that string is broken. Why small town
like this, seven miles from railroad, should
have in one year sixty four tlamps call for
food and twenty three to be carried to Jail as
vagrants is a mystery. Monroe has no lock-
up and the aims house in this town is where
the tramps are given lodgings. But Monroe
seems perfectly willing to continue to care
for the tramps, and the tramps show their
appreciation by making this regular stop
ping place. [Com.

The Republican journal., 1897-03-04

What has been done in matters of admin
istration and in additions and circulation is
sufficiently described in the accompanying
report of the Librarian. Particular attention
IS called to the increase in the number of
books used, exceeding by ,141 that of any
previous year, and to the accession of 100
more volumes than we added in 1895 6. The
suggestion in regard to supplying pupils who
attend school away from the city proper de-
serves careful consideration. The financial
statement which forms part of this report
shows full account OF receipts and expend-
ltures for the library during the past munici-
pal year. The income from all sources was
81 ,S54 43, and the disbursements 81, 500 81
In the latter sum is included SCI So advance
payment on magazines and periodicals for
1891 and S21.50 for coal bought in 1895; the
account not having been presented in season
Tor the last report. The accumulated income
OF $3.50 9S reported by the Treasurer a year
ago remains unexpended. A portion of this
sum, derived from fines, has been set apart
for procuring portrait of the late Nathan
lei Wilson, and the amount is now sufficient
for that purpose.
