DIR. A. c. Bailey will be a candidate for
town representative from Randolph the
coming fall, probably. In case he enters
he will resign as pension examiner before

legislature. Doctor Bailey was a candi-
date for the Office two years ago, being
defeated by Luke Parish. The Herald is
unable 20 learn of any other prospective
at this time, but viii take
pleasure in announcing any who have an
ambition in this direction.
