these facts from Mr.. FraZer's lips, this
afternoon. Mr. Frazer said: II cannot
consent to hold the office Some man
on the street ought TO have it, some
one whom the people can see con

BREATHE ONCE MORE,
Gangs of Men Busy Digging Out the
Town.

Leicester, Feb. 1.-two gangs of
men are digging away at either end
OF the Suburban track connecting Lei
cester and Spencer and it is expected
that the rails will be cleared of en-
numbering drifts by Friday noon. A
gang of 100 men, in charge of Inspec-
tor David L. Beaulieu, commenced
work this morning at the Leicester end
and gang of SC, in charge of John
O'Gara- started in at Spencer. At the
close of work tonight the track had
been cleared from Spencer centre to
the top Of Tafts hill, and from Leices-
ter to G. w. Bander's farm. There is
more snow than ON the Worcester di-
vision, and more Shoveling had to be
done. On Mount Pleasant curve there
is an enormous drift, sloping from the
high bank across the street, which is
nearly UP to the trolley wire. Only
a few regular railway employees show
eled today They are recovering from
the efforts of the past few days, and
it is said the most tired man in the
lot is the one who labored val!ant1y
with a small, round nosed shovel.
On Mount Pleasant the road will
have to be cleared again, as the rail
way company shovelcd their snow into
the road Mr. Sprague said there would
be no trouble, and the railway had TO
do this, as there was no other place to
put the snow. The Suburban tracks
have been cleared as quickly as pos
sible and the main line from Worces-
ter to Spencer will be ready for traffic
tomorrow.
