The addition OF F. 3. Ellis to the
executive committee OF the Clinton
Business Mems Association, will, it is
expected here, inject new life into that
organization, which is suffering less
from lack of usefulness than from a
recent separation Of the organization
into factions
The principal Of these cliQues came,
as II is we'll understood BIZ those on
the inside, from differences of opinion
about who should he the next post
master. a faction favvring Warren
Goodale is numerically the strongest.
Mr.. Goodale's reelection to be presi-
dent, when he expects TO live in town
at the best but a portion CT the time.
is significant of the purpose of his
friends to keep him as strong as pos
sible until the post Office die is cast.
Mr.. Ellis is not u member of any
faction, but he has had a large eXper-
fence in organizing boards of trade,
has been president Of the board of trade
Of Manchester, N. H., and has clear
and vigorous ideas of what must be
done to make the Clinton board sue
cessful.
He believes that it is necessary to
have the meetings open to the news
paper men, so as to get for the doings
of the board as much publicity as pos
sible. His efforts at the last meeting
We're directed toward impIessing this
idea upon the members. 1t found a
large endorsement.
Some very good members of the as
ISOLATION do not think that the news
paper men should be admitted. Thomas
Lawson Tate is the most outspoken Of
these. Mr.. Tate's views are shared by
w. L. Hubbard, +. .. Pratt, John w.
Forester, Charles Frazer and others.
That p. f. Cannon would run for
town treasurer has been in rumor for
some time. The confirmation is in the
formal announcement of his candidacy
in the Spy. He is president of Division
s. A. o. H., state secretary of the A. o.
H.. manager of the Clinton theatre, a
real estate dealer and insurance man.
His greatest prominence recently came
from his work as chairman of the Vol
unteer relief committee.
George w. Wilson and his repertoire

day Lady Audley's secret was pre-

company that ever came to this town
Thomas l.. Walsh and Charles Nc
Grath went to Fitchburg today to visit

Treasurer Walter r. Dawes estimates
that it cost the Worcester and Clinton
