Naturally, many of these copies found
their way to the supporters of Mr.. Hdr-
wood, who gave vent to their mirth
when they read that Mr.. Hamant want
ed another Office after obtaining every
thing he went in for during the past 20
years, and they claimed that this state
ment would undoubtedly help their maj,
with the republican voters of North
Brookfield. on the ground that all the
honors should not always go to the
same man, but that there being enough
to go around, they should be divided.
This contest. however it NAV end. and
politicians who are conservative do not
Commit themselves in the matter, is
certainly as close and interesting as
any in the county.

The Springfield Tribune, one of the
strongest Catholic papers issued in New
England, has come out with a forcible
and logical editorial on the trouble ex-
listing here on the religious question,
and particularly on the last phase, the
importation OF priest to exercise the
duties OF pastor over the French speak
ing people VINO are IN rebellion against
the cnurch OF Rome. The article is
