NOT YET DECIDED ON
 WORK AT BLEAcHERY
Several Weeks Before Definite Con ciusion Will Be Reached Concerning Chances.

It was stated by Resident Manager John F. Rogers of the United States Finishing company on Tuesday that no definite decision had been reached concerning the changes which are to be made at the local plant of the Unit ed States Finishing company It will probably be several weeks. he said, before it is known what will be done. The idea of making changes in the buildings has been under consideration for some time.
 Architects have commenced tenta- tive plans for the extensive improve ments which are to be undertaken. Practically all of the present old brick buildings on the east side of the ca nal are to be replaced by new struc- lures and most of the work must be done without interrupting the work of the plant. The plans for the first sec tion are now being worked out, but it has not yet been decided whether brick or reinforced concrete construction will be used- It is estimated that the ifn- provements when completed will cost several hundred thousand dollars.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR.
What the Trouble Is.

MT. Editor: The exciting and close contest for school committeeman at Taftville on the evening of June 26th, in which Charles P. Bushnell won over Adolphus Benoit by one vote. the total being Bushnell 73, Beneit 72, with one vote rejected, is still causing much dissatisfaction over the manner in which it was conducted and abruptly closed. The close contest was not caused by dissatisfaction with MT. Bushnell, who is universally conceded to be an honest, capable and fair minded official. but was rather due to the peoples dissatisfaction with the course pursued by another member of the committee. who, they claim, has abused the authority conferred upon him, and who. they hoped, would re- sign and test the peoples approval of his course by a vote at this meeting.
 There is also much popular disap- proyal of the principals manner of conducting the affairs of the school, which is in striking contrast to the manner in which it was conducted by the late principal, MT. Russell. who was universally popular with the peo- pie of TaftviIle. And, although it was decided to vote by check list none was used and MT. Eccles the moder- ator, closed the meeting abruptly, with out any motion to adjourn being voted ,, on, and without asking for any re- marks. or asking for vote for an appropriation in regard to remedyine schoolheuse or in regard to incorpora . tion both of which were included in the warning and supposed to be voted upon at this meeting
