IN HIS FRIENDS HANDS. Charles A. Gates Will Accept Nomina- ten for Sheriff If Offered by His Party.

During the republican congressional
 convention Saturday, many of the friends of Charles A. Gates of this
 city. whose name has been frequently
 mentioned as a candidate for the nom
 iDation as sheriff for this county, but
 who had made no public announce snent. urged him to make a definite
 statement and announce his candi-
 dacy. In response to this plea, MT. Gates gave out the following state Tnent:
 -T have not announced myself as a candidate nor have I said that I would
 not accept the nomination for the of- flee of sheriff of Windham county. Many of my friends from different parts of the county have urged me to become candidate. have not made any, canvass or attempted to secure any delegates. ia' any town in the county or in anyway to secure spp- pert in the1 county convention. However, if my cfriends- see fit to support me shall certainly allow them 1 to do so, and, at this time, wish to express my appreciation to the many friends from all parts of the county who have personally and by letter urged me to be 9 candidate for the lBosition. I will not make any canvass | for the rGTinaticn CT forward my own | candidacy, but will accept the nom- | inatior provided the republicans of the county nominate me. certainly would not accept the nomination unless a majority of the republicans of the county desire me to be the nominee Therefore I think it better for all con | cerned to have their claims presented
 at the convention
 There are several other candidates 1 for the office, but MT. Gates friends l aeel that he deserves the honor and | will undoubtedly do their best to se- l cure his nomination

MACHINERY WORTH s5o,oeo
Ordered by kilIinsIy Misunderstanding compsny~ Will Soon Turn Out
 1,500.ooo Yards of Tire Duck Yearly,

An order has been placed for s50,e00 worth of new machinery by the Xii lingly Manufacturing company of Will Evansville, a subsidiary company of the Goodyear Tire. and Rubber company to complete the. unit which was partly established after it was decided to de- vote the mills exclusively to the inanu- facture of automobile tire duck. which line of operation has been so success fully conducted as to warrant an in- mediate increase in the plants capacl- tyvfor production, which will have been raised to 1,500;000 yards year when the machinery to be placed is in ser vice.
 The first of the new machinery cardins-wiH begin to arrive during October and will be followed during November by the spinning and Weav- ing machines: The cards. will be start% ed as soon as ready; and likewise the spinning machines, 50 that additional quantities of yarn will be on hand by the time t!ie-new looms are ready for operation. 1t is expected that nearly all of the new machinery will be run ming by the first of the year.
 At the present time the mill is em- ploying about 1f0 hands and has a payroll of approximately $2,500 a week The number of employees will be in creased to close to POO when the unit is completed. This expansion is taken by persons closely interested in the prospects of the company as only one step of steadily increasing the busi- ness, which will probably require an- other mill in the village, where there is a fine site. within the next two or three years. The present mill is being made ready to receive the additional ma chinery and is also being treated ex- teriorly to a coat of. white, making it one of the. cleanest looking mills any where to be found.
 The duck which is being produced in the mill is as of high grade as ever entered into the making of tires by the Goodyear people.
