that so, MIR. Mayor? "Yes," replied the

mayor.
This hurried sketch, prepared without
notes, does not do justice to Mr.. Frost's
clean-cut statements and telling points.
He had the facts and used them to good
advantage, and was frequently interrupted
by applause. In closing he presented the
name of Tileston Wadlin, Esq, as a candi-
date for mayor and it was moved that he be
nominated by accIamation.
Hon. George E. johnson then rose and
said that while that was the usual custom
they had been notified by city official that
there would be Democrats present to watch
the proceedings, and that if there was the
slightest informality he should refuse to
put the names of the candidates on the Of
fetal ballot. He thought therefore it would
be advisable to appoint committee to cast
the ballot, and this was done, and Mr.. Wad-
lin was formally announced as the candidate
for mayor The ward caucuses later follow
ed a like procedure.
Hon. William 7. Haines of Waterville,
who was in Belfast that day on business,
and was present at the caucus, was called
always interested in such meetings, but
that it would not be proper, nor did he pro-
pose, to say anything concerning our mu-
nicipal affairs. He presented some convinc-
ing facts and figures concerning State tax
alton and what has been accomplished un-
der Republican rule At the close of his
remarks the caucus took recess to allow
the wards to make their nominations, and
on reassemblng the candidates were an

Writ of Habeas Corpus Refused.

AUGUSTA Feb. 9th. Justice William
Penn Whitehouse today refused to issue a
writ of habeas corpus for Michael Rawley
of Rock land, convicted in the ROckland
municipal court of search and seizure and
upon the confirmation of the sentence of
the lower court at the January term of the
Supreme court committed to Jail. Nj. A.
johnson, Rockland, appearing for the pc
titiOner, contended that Rawley had not
been present in the Supreme court when
the sentence was affirmed and claimed that
Rawley had been taken from his home to
Jail on mittimus when he should have
been committed on capias. Justice White
house did not consider the grounds suffi-
cient to warrant the issuance of writ.
