pounds. These with promising i'm
ported Percheron stallion, "Colini,"

lion will rank among the best horses
ever brought into this section of the
country. Colini is a coal black in color
with white points and weighs 1850 lbs,

Through an oversight the acceptance
of the interurban electric railway fran
chise which the city of Edgerton granted
to P. l.. Spooner last November was not
filed within the ninety days limit which
the ordinance provided The time for
filing the acceptance expired on the 7th
day of February and that document has
not been filed yet. Mr.. Spooner expects
to have the error legally corrected and
says that work on the new line will be
commenced soon. All of the prelmi-
nary survey has been made and the pro-
meters are now considering which route
is the best One of the proposed routes
runs by way of Milton and Milton juno
ton and another by Indian Ford. The
latter is considerably cheaper and more
direct. - So II,
nominate candidates for city Offices to be
voted for at the coming municipal cleo
ton. The republicans and the citizens
reform party are the only parties that
will make nominations this year, the
democratic party having dropped out
entirely. 1t is the duty of each voter to
attend the caucus of the party with
which he affiliates. Nominations should
be made consisting of men who are ca
pable of handling the city's affairs in an
economical and judicial way; men who
will carefully look to the interests of the
entire city and protect the same in so
far as the duties of their offices will
permit. By full attendance at the
cacuses representa- tive men would be
chosen and if elected, satisfaction would
be assured. Remember that there are
but two caucuses, the republican, Satur-
day evening, March 22nd, at 80, and the
citizens reform party Monday evening,
March oath, at 1880, both to be held in
the city hall.
