 It is proposed to extend the switch from Cornwall avenue to the Waverly and from Leander Bristors to Augustus Hitchcock's.
 MT. Hill appeared for the Connecticut Railway and Lighting company. Judge Lowe and George Geeler spoke in favor of the double-tracking, and J. D. Wal ter, E. D. Woodbury, A. s. Bennett, R.. G. Mulford, Dennis Coleman, as attor- ney for the Cheshire school, and others against the project.
 The driving road in many places is very narrow at present with but one track The building of double track will necessitate cutting away several more feet in front of the residences on the route, to which the various owners object. The selectmen reserved their decision.

THE LEGISLATIVE CAMPAIGN.

ct will be understood that we cannot
here state much in detail lest some copy
hereof should fall into the hands of our
enemies and enable them to concentrate
their fire against u.s.
But after all the center of the fight
at this writing we were putting the maxi
mum number of districts in which we
would have nominees at twenty-five. The
actual fact is that we have thirtynine
legislative nominees in thirty-One dis
trictS, and that in twenty-SeVen OF these
districts our local committees feel that
there is hope of election and in twelve
of them there is confidence: The story
most briefly told runs as follows
1st District, Hennpein county, t. r.
Stewart, candidate--We have. a strong
committee in this district and strong
organization. R. w. Millican put in six
weeks organizing, and Geo. A. Hanna is
campaigning the district with Mr.. Stew

4th District, Olmsted county, Bert
Crowell-An exceptionally strong COM
mittee here a good organization and
Sth District Steele county, F: G. Sloan;
But little organization. Candidate well
and favorably known. we VIII make
good gains. We may have Anti-Saloon
League support.
9th District, Freeborn county, T.. E.
Noble, leading candidate, Geo. l.. Briggs
Noble who lacked only SO votes of cleo
ton two years ago. Organization strong,
active and thorough. The candidate is
well and favorably known.
18th District Blue Earth county,
Brooks Hitchings.-He is making an ex-
ceptionally vigorous campaign. They are
bringing good organization into line ana
