spencer, March 2S.-The political af-
fairs of the day are more complicated
than ever. Politicians are around wear
ing anxious looks, kitchen caucuses are
being held nightly and the good people
OF Spencer are puzzled. Groups can
be seen assembling on different cor
ners and political talk is the only con-
Versation carried on.
The hackers of the Kramer and Con-
ooh parties are using all their intiu-
ence for their candidates and both par
tets are claiming almost certain victory
Willie J. Heffernan, editor of the
spencer Leader, is taking a hot part IN
Inc poltical affairs siding in with men
OF the license stamp, This IS a very pc

take, as he has always been consider
ed a strong no-license man. The REQ
pie wonder why he has changed all OF
sudden, both on the license question
ana from Mr.. George Kramer who al
ways thought him to be a true friend
10 L.. Il. p. Moreau and EVangeliste
Cormier, parties who have been in the
liquor business, and are thought by the
people of Spencer to be in favor of Ii
cense this year, but are ostensibly try
inn to down the rum trade.
Every man has right to vote any
way he pleases, but it does not seem
honorable to the people to see d man
go up to a citizens caucus and vote
and then turn around and go Up to fne
no-license one and be placed on a com
mttee.
But Monday will tell the tale, as to
whether the town will go no or yes
and what party will go into power.
The people of Spencer are sympathlz-
ing with Arthur White and wife today
IN regard to the sad loss that befele

brightest children in town and the
parents are almost unconsolable over
its death, The funeral will take place
tomorrow afternoon at o'clock from
ST. Mary's church.
