hecomc exceedingly interesting and
now seems centercd down to two
candidates Oscar Madison and VIII
Howell, the latter being a nephew OF

The recommendation to the president.
For several days it looked very
bright for Howell for the postoffice
lob which William Glassmann has
announced his intention Of giving up,
but now things have changed to q
certain degree and it now appears
as though Oscar Madison, chairman
OF the board of county commissioners
and chairman of the last Republican
County Central committee is in the
lead.
AS President-elect Taft has offered

intention of accepting it. and owing

From those who are In Il position

of his nephew by Congressman Howell
would probably conflict with any

BOARD OF FINANCE
City Attorney KeIlogg's Opinion
 oD Engineer Cairns Salary.

The board of finance met yester- day afternoon and approved the pay rolls and a few miscellaneous bills. The 5000 year payroll was made out for Mir Cairns and when the comptroller was asked how this came to be so replied that the engineer brought it in that way. Then Il developed that the engineer must have known what opinion the city attorney would render on the mat ter, and while the board was of the opinion that the document should have come to them first, very little was said about it except to order 1t transmitted to the aldermen. The following is copy of the opinion: ITO the Honorable Board of Fin-
 ance, City of Waterbury:
 "ln response to the request of your honorable body as contained in the following vote, viz:
 "'Voted: That the city attorney be and he is hereby requested to sub init to this board an opinion as to the date when the amount of the salary of the city engineer, as con tinued at the rate of 5000 per an mum, by vote of the board of al- dermen on August ,, 1907, expires.
 "I would respectfully advise you that l have given careful considera- tion to the votes of the board of aldermen relative to the salary of the city engineer passed on August 1QnI 1Qn7 am of the opinion that the late vote of August 15, 1904, so far as it ef- fleets the salary of the city engineer is entirely subject to the vote of the board of aldermen and the time | named in the vote of August ,, 1907, having now expired, it is within the province of the board of aldermen I to pass any other vote it desires rel | ative to this salary, but until such vote is passed the salary of the city engineer would continue as named in the vote of the board of alder men of August }, 1907.
 Respectfully,
 JOHN P. KELLOGG, 1 City Attorney.' | The recommendation of the board of education that the salary of the | janitor of the Mulcahy school be in creased $30 year and that the sal ary of the Webster school janitor be advanced $60, was passed, the in- crease to date from October 27.
