At the town caucus last Tuesday
the following officers we're nominat-
ed on the official ticket: Supervi-
sors VIM. Leighton, chairman, AL
bert Brandemuehl, Gay Landon;
clerk, Era Grifis; treasurer, Arthur
Hamer; assessor, John Wilson;
justices, Era Grifis, John Krohn;
constables, JAS. Garthwaite Jr.,
Thos. S. Pendletop, Frank Morrow.
This corps of officers, if elected, will
be somewhat different from last
years officials. The changes oc-
curing are the substitution Of Gay
Landon, for j. W. Garthwaite as
supervisor; Era Griffis, for John
Woods as clerk, and perhaps a
change in the justices. Whether
or not this corps of officers will be
elected is mooted point that has
been settled by the time this paper
is published.
