Hon. John P. Swasey was here the
first of last week looking over the politi-
cal situation in connection with his can
didacy for the Republican nomination
for congress; aud on Friday Hon. Charles
(. Littlefeld came into the heart OF the
enemy's country by automobile, the
machine running merrily through the
rain and mud from Lewiston to South
Paris, and then on toward Bethel after a
stay of some two hours here. 1t is gen.
orally understood that the principal re-
suit of Mr.. Littletield's call was TO meet
a number of cordial friends who were

time are that Mr.. Swasey will have the

the Republicans in this section of the

At recent meeting of the trustees OF
the Oxford County Agricultural Society
it was decided to shingle the main ex-
hibitiOn building, make what general
repairs are necessary, and build some
more stalls for horses. For the past
two years, the horse stalls have been in
sufficient to accommodate all who wish
ed 10 come, and stalls have been hired
outside, while some who would other
wise have come have stayed away for the
lack of accommodations. The new
stalls will be built on the lower side of
the grounds near the grand stand, and it
is the intention eventually to get all the
horse stalls into that part of the grounds,
and get rid of those along the front
fence, which are inconveniently situated,
and are already getting old.
