THE MIDWAY

The franchise to install a water
supply at Midway, which has been
applied for by c. T. Martin and w

Monday nights meeting of the
council, as the law and ordinance
committee was unprepared to report
on It. The committee, it appeared
desired a conference with the APP
plicants before 1t reported favora-
bly, on the ordinance. The applicants
called, by request, on one of the
members of the committee, and were
apprized that the franchise would be
reported favorably at next meeting
of council, if it is assured that the
franchise will be exercised. and a
bond given that work would be be-
gun within six months We under
stand this was readily assented to
by the applicants.

Senator From wisconsin to Re-

Washington, March 4.-Senator
Spooner has written letter to Govern
or Davidson of Wisconsin, rendering
his resignation as a senator of the
United States, to take effect May next.
The letter was dated Saturday, but the
fact that such a letter had been written
or that Spooner contemplated reslgnlng
did not become known in the senate I'M
til late Sunday, when it created great
surprise, and the Wisconsin senator at
once found himself the subject of many
anxious inquiries.
To all he replied that his mind was
fully made up. He had found, he sald'
that to continue in his present position
would require a sacrifice on his part
that he could not justify himself in
making. In reply to questions he SAID
he would resume the practice OF the
law, but declined to say whether or
not he would be located in Wisconsin
He did say, however, that he would
continue to be a citizen of that state as
long as he lives.
The law does not require that re-
signing senator should do more than
Spooner has done, but some senators
who have resigned have given notice

MAINE CITY ELECTIONS
Republicans and Democrats Each
Lose Three MAYORS

Lose Three Mayors
Portland, Me, March 5-Democrats
had little the better of the municipal
elections held in II of the Maine cities
While they lost their mayors at Water
vile, RockIand and Auburn, the Repub-
Leans lost theirs at Eastport, ELS
worth, Bath and Hallowell. The Demo
Gratis retained their chief executives at
South Portland. Lewiston and Saco,
and the Republicans at Gardiner.
Chief interest centered in the efforts
of the Republicans to recover control
Of Auburn, Rockland, Saco and Water
vile, which turned over to the Demo
cratic column last year.
While the Democrats lost the head
of their ticket at Watervile they still
control the city government. On the
other hand, the Republicans obtained
the balance of power in their city coun-
ellis at South Portland, Bath and Hal
lowell, while losing their mayors.
The closest results were at Hallowell
and Saco In the former city the face
of the returns showed plurality of
four for the head of the Republican
ticket, but recount gave the election
to Fred e. Beane, Democrat, by
seven votes.
An extraordinary circumstance in
connection with the election proceed
ings came up at Saco The candidates
for aldermen were tied in two wards
and as the wardens failed to adjourn
until a specified date, it is understood
there will be two vacant seats in the
aldermanc board this year.
