FRED WEST WANTS
 TO BE SHERIFF,
New London Alderman lookinq for
 Nomination from Democrats,

The election of a sheriff of New London county occurs this fall and there Is no doubt that the present eff cient and popular incumbent of that office, Sheriff Sidney A. Brown will receive the enthusiastic and unani- nous renOmination of the republi- cans. Each time that Sheriff Brown has been a candidate he has gone in by so large majorities that the demo- crats have found it difficult to get a candidate who was willing to stand up for the rather empty honor of being knocked down.
 This year. however, a change has apparently come over the mental atti- tude of the democrats. The situation looks good to them, they assert, and there are likely to be several aspir- ants for the nomination to this i'm portant office on that side of the house. Among those who are said to be at least in a receptitive mood is Raymond Jodoin of Baltic, who four years ago gave ex-Congressman F. w. Higgins the battle of his life for cleo tion to the national house from the Second congressional district
 Another avowed candidate Is a New London man, Alderman Fred J West the well known livery stable proprietor and auctioneer. Alderman West is pop- ular and lifelong democrat. His first venture into politics was not until las fall, however. when he easily secured the aldermanic election in the Third ward. Alderman West has had exten- sive business dealings throughout the county and enjoys a wide acquaint- ance in consequence. For this reason he feels that if he secures the demo- cratic nomination he can give Sheriff Brown stiff fight at the polls

 Distributing Foodstuffs in New 4ork.
 A we'll considered paper was also prepared and read by Mrs. John E' Tanning upon the subject of The Eco homie Distribution of Foodstuf1s m New York She showed that the con sumers in the city of New ofk pay $500, 1000, 900 a year for thelr 1000, which at the railroad ana steaIIlsLiIp terminal stations costs the commls- sion men and jobbers S350, 100000 This accordingly represents an expense or $50. OO0, 900 in handling. At the docks truckmen have to get in line at lo o'clock at night in order to receive their supplies by the next morning. The street nearly the whole night is a solid mass of wagons and 1t IS almost impossible for the small dealer to get into line at all.
 Mrs Tanning described the system of terminal markets which q commits sion has recommended to remedy this condition. In addition to these ter minals there would be retail markets all over the city, in number about oV, and each supplying a district or about 50000 population. Purchases would be made by the retailer from the wholesaler direct, thus economiZing in the handling and trucking. The plan is to be cooperative with all profits divided yearly between all pro ducers and consumers charged the lowest possible price to cover eX- penses. It is estimated that from 50 10 100 million dollars could be saved annually to the consumers of New York by the direct economic food dis tribution by this plan.
 In the lecturers hour also there was an entertaining reading, entitled The Deacon's Courtship. by Mrs. Mary F.. Phillips.
