LARCENY CHARGED
WeIl-TO-DO Business Man Locked Up
Cash Bonds Furnished for Appearance

Cash Bonds Furnished for Appearance
 Louis Darman and Harry Goldberg, both of Woonsocket, spent Monday night in cells at the Putnam police sta tion. Although Darman is we'll to do he could find no one in the city to fur nish a bond of 5000 for him Monday night. The men were arrested on the charge of larceny from the French Riv- CT Textile Company at Mechaniesville. They were taken to Thompson Tues day morning and artaigned before Jus tice Randolph H. Chan dler and plead not guilty. The case was adjourned to December 6th, and each furnished cash bond of Sl0o0, rthe money being brought Tuesday morning from Noon- socket by Darman's daughter.
 The company claim that for some time past they have been selling cheap waste product from their mill to these men. Not only from the Me- chaniesville mill but from other mills controlled by the same interests. They claim that the men had a confederate to assist them. This Confederate was employed in the mill and would sub. stitute high class goods for the cheap. CT product. For instance one order a short time ago was for 1900 pounds of waste at one cent pound. The order was paid for sl6 cash. The goods the buyers received according to the state- ment of the company were worth over S2e0. Some of ese'transactions were for orders as high as $l200 and the company claim they have lost hum dreds of dollars by the methods above. They were unable to account for this loss and finally appealed to the Pink erton agency and they took hold of the case. While the men stoutly deny their guilt the state claims to have strong evidence and will attempt to show that the goods shipped and re- eeived were not of the grade called for in the order. The men say that they only received what they paid for. The last order which had been paid for but not shipped has been attached by the company in civil action to recover damages.

He had not paid so this fine will also have to be worked out which will make the total sentence of l45 days.
 According 10 witnesses, Joseph Car roll, George Bishop and Edmund Du- bois, Rondeau came to the mill of the Nightingale Morse Incorporated about II 80 Saturday morning. He had been drinking but was not drunk.

ELECTION MONDAY
Situation Unique. Not Much Interest
Election A foregone Conclusion

N The city election will be held next Monday. Tae polls will be open from s 3. m. to 5 p. m. The local political Situation is unique. The common council, including the mayor, will without doubt succeed itself as body. 5The personnel of the incoming, adminis- tration will be identical with the per sonel of the outgoing administration as every member will succeed him. self.
 Two years ago the democrats failed to nominate candidate for mayor. This year the party nominated ex- Mayor John J. McGarry for the office. --.4T. McGarry, for business reasons, re. fused the nomination and no candidate was nominated in his stead. This leaves Mayor Macdonald with clear field for the second consecutive term, and he is sure of election.
 At the ward eaucuses held by the Republicans the present ineumbents ot 1he offices were nominated to succeed Themselves as aldermen without oppo- stion. There were some rumors of Contests in some wards but they did hot materialize at the caucuses where everything was harmonious and n- animous. The democrats held no ward caucuses. There was an attempt to hold caucus for Ward l but it is Understood that only two voters were present. The nominations were left for the general democratic caucus and &the same aldermen that now hold the offices were nominated for another term.
 The republicans nominated John A. Dady for Large. The dem- s5oerats nominated ex-Alderman George ZIP. Miner who ran last election was de- feated as the city is strongly republican = MT. Dady will doubtless be reelected. SThus the body will continue intact for #the neA. two years.
 The election next Monday is the Z Efirst to be held under the revised city &charter. Heretofore there have been #s'off year" elections when the only nominees were aldermen from Wards and 1. The legislature of 1911 changed the charter abolishing this of year election and all city officers are now elected at the same time bi-annu. ally. As each voter is only allowed to vote for one alderman in ward it gives the minority party half of the al- dermen in the council. The balance of power is in the hands of the alderman at.large. The situation being such it is probable the vote will be light but every voter should go to the polls and express his preference.
 The city having taken over the water works and sewers having been installed the outlook for the next two years is that the mayor and members of the council will not have such arduous duties to perform. They have worked hard and faithfully the past two years and deserve the appreciation of every citizen for giving their time and ener- gies to the work for the public good.

 CHICHAGOFF LODE

Dr. J. Langd0n Hawes, of Sitka, who recently arrived from the an cient capital of Alaska, is staying at the Hotel Cain, says the Juneau Empire. Dr. Hawes grows enthus- iastic over the latest strike at the Chichagoff mine According to Dr. Hawes the vein is now upwards of 12 feet in width and carries val ues of $15OO.OU per ton. This con- firms the statement recently made by J. G. Smith that the vein had widened out aud is carrying exceed ingly good values
 The ChicagOff mine which is in the section tributary to Juneau is one of the most remarkable mines in the world, in that it has reached its present state of produCtiveness without the investment of single dollar in cash. The ledge was devel oped from the proceeds of loose rock or float that was picked up sacked and taken to a mill for re duction. The work was carried on in this fashion until the ledge was developed into a mine and a little mill established which has since been enlarged, but all the time has been pounding out running expenses and providing for extensions besides paying a handsome divident.
