 Some talk has been going on for some time among the politicians of this city of an agreement which, if de- termined upon, will save the city al- most one hundred dollars. Each party selects three city sheriffs and two se- lectmen, but the sour seleetmen are elected and only five out of the six sheriffs. An agreement will probably be entered into to save this hundred dollars between the two parties whereby only five city sheriffs will be placed on the ticket, one party placing two and the other three. It is prob able that this agreement will be reached by both parties.
