CANDIDATES FOR ALDERMEN
NOMINATED IN EACH WARD
TOTAL REGISTRATION IS But 80
Shall the Town be Bonded for S.. .ooOP
That's the Most Important Oues.
ton to be Voted Upon-EIec-
tion Next rlonday.

The registration for the annual elec-
ton to be held in the town Of Hamil-
ton next Monday closed Thursday eve-
ming with IA total Of 90 enrolled.
The light registration indicates that
but little interest is felt in the ap-
preaching election, although a ques-
ton of considerable Importance, the
matter of bonding the town for So 900
to build town hall, is to be voted
upon.
Two aldermen, successors to Page
and Peterson, must be elected in the
First ward as we'll as successors to
Aldermen Lockwood of the Second and
and Howley of the Third.
The socialists have filed petitions
nominating A. W. Newell for alder
man in the First; Walter Warren in
the Second and John c. Wilson in the
Third wards. Petitions have also
been filed with CITY Clerk Parmenter,
nominating Louis Peterson and ]. J.
Southwick for aldermen in the First;
f. M. Lockwood in the Second and
John ]. HowIey i'll the THIRD, compris-
ing the Citizens ticket.
Thus far little opposition has been
manifested to the bonding proposition,
which has the hearty support of
Mayor McMurry, most of the alder
men and all the members of the fire
department..
Mayor McMurry. who enthusiastic-
ally favors the bonding proposition,
has cured it out that no additional
expense will he assumed by the town.
In the first place, the interest on the
bonds, at per cent will be $3.50 per
year. This amount will be offset by
the saving of 5000 per year library
rental and from the fines of city prs-
oners-which in the past have gone to
the county.
The bonds, of course, must be paid
at maturity, but as the mayor points
out, they Will run for 20 years or more
and the townsmen of the future will
assume that burden.

On every trip the little steamer Err
cliffe made TO the fleet yesterday she
was crowded. The popular % cent

commodation on the Ercliffe and cour-

visited the ships yesterday. going out
in every conceivable craft The
launches that have come here from
Baltimore have been doing q land
Office business. It was 8 regular skin
game yesterday. The Baltimore
launches charged 80 cents round trip,
but when the passengers got near
the ships and wanted TO go aboard, the
captain refused 70 land anybody un :
der dollar, OF 30 cents additional.
1t was an outrage. Passengers were
landed on the British ships by the
Baltimore launches which failed to
return for them, and had it not been
for the courtesy of the British who
sent the AnnRpolitans to town on their
own launch, the aforesaid Annapoll-
tans would still be on the British
ships. Every courtesy was shown these
visitors TO the ships and the services
of guide were extended TO explain
the manipulation of guns, lights, sig
mails. etc.
