a citizens caucus was held in the town
hail. and board of selectmen which
excluded the present incumbents, was
nominated for the consideration of the
voters at the coming March meeting
The present board of selectmen have
served for two years, but in the past

and as result there was a good-stzed
attendance at tonight's caucus.
Henry w. Loring was chairman of the
caucus, and George L. Stone clerk The
candidates for the various Offices were
elected by ballot as follows: Seiectmen,
jefferson A. Dean chairman. Thomas

with plan for a formidable campaign
to oust any particular set Of officers,
and the outcome will be watched with
much interest by local citizens and also
