Colonel Anderson emphatically ex-
pressed his belief that if Richmond will
take hold of the matter and make
straightforward representation on a bus
mess basis the legislators could not re-
sst her appeal AS for himself and his
colleagues. they stood ready and willing
to do all they possibly could to bring the
exposition to this city. In conclusion, he
said that the Norfolk bill had been re-
ferred to committees which had not yet
been formed, and, he didn't see how 1t
could como up before next weeE: at the
earliest.
Senator Julian Bryant reiterated tho
remarks of Senator Anderson, and said
that committee to make up a formal
proposition would ba the timely thing to
do He did not know with what vigor
Norfolk would push the bill, and advised
the Chamber to effect an organization as
soon as possible.
Delegate Kelley believed firmly that if
Richmond wanted the exposition she
could get it. He stated that Richmond $
representatives had been handicapped
because. they did not know that the city
wanted the great; celebra ton, and de-
clared that, as quoted in a Norfolk PC

Warm Town Meeting.

1t was an old fashioned town meeting
weather, attendance, spirit and all. There
were no momentous issues, but plenty of
interest over filling the various town
offices.
A feeling prevailed among portion of
the voters that it was time for a shake-up,
though no deep complaints were heard of
faulty service. In the vicinity of the
Center, this feeling was strongest, resulting
in the holding of a caucus at Squire
Boyden's office at the Center, Saturday, to
which only voters from the central part of
the town were invited. About IS were
present and nominations were made only
for those offices which ii was thought
proper to claim for that part Of the town
one selectman, one lister and road
commissioner. 1t was with these nomina-
tions that the attempt was made to down
the 'sold board" or at least break into it.
But it failed. In each instance the caucus
nominees were beaten by the incumbents.
A few changes were made, il is true, but
wholly independent of the caucus action.
The several ballots tell the story in brief,
as follows:

The officers reports as printed were
adopted without discussion.
Fifty dollars was appropriated for
Memorial day, and FOO in aid OF the
public library.
The article relating to exemption of the
Randolph Building Co. was passed over.
A 40c. town tax was voted, which
includes the state, state school, state
highway and county taxes.
II was voted to authorize the school
directors to build new schoolhouse at
East Randolph, either on the same site as
the present, or on a new site, and to
dispose of the present one. When the
attempt was made TO vote a tax for the
proposed expenditure, the point was
raised that the warning did not specify
this business, and it was deemed advisable
to postpone this action TO a special meeting
that may be called for the purpose.
A long wrangle wound up the meeting
over the question of charges made for
cemetery lots in this village cemetery,
some voters claiming that lots located in q
certain section should be free, as the town
had paid for them. Such lots are free in
the other cemeteries. No action could be
taken, but the matter was thoroughly
ventilated.
1t was 3 p. m. before adjournment. A
livelier time next year is anticipated.
