DISSATISFACTION IN RANKS
Neorxe B. Carter Out for once of Second Selectman = Town Clerk
 Shaw Seeking Keelection-Wortll- ington School Opens-Twner Lo- cated-AutomObdle Accidents.

The political pot in this town began to boil again this morning when the chairman of the republican town com- mittee, William H. Webster, an nounced that the republican town d1scus will be held on Friday night Tt o'clock in the town hall.
 As usual the office of first select man will be most hotly contested. The office Is held by Judge Willard I. filling and, according to his friends, he will be a candidate for reelection. MT. filling, it is said. will have as his platform for reelection his accom- klishments during his past adminis- trAtion.
 Although it could not be officially confirmed, as Newton w. Baldwin was put of town today, it was rumored athat the former second selectman will oppose Judge Alling on Friday night. According to Mr. Baldwin's many friends, he would make ap ideal man for the office. AS second selectman of the town for 13 years during the Gib- ney administration, he is said to have mined considerable experience as to how the town affairs arc run. He has also served the town as a justice of the peace and constable.
 V There seemed to be diversion of opinion as to whether Judge filling would receive the entire support of his party should he be named by the re- pYblicans. It is reported that much dissatisfaction has been expressed as to the manner in which he conducted the town affairs during the year. AL though his opponents admit that he saved the town considerable money by not making numerous repairs, still they assert that by his saving money the town win eventually undergo greater expense when the roads will have to be repaired.
 Second Selectman George B. Carter announced this morning that he will be & candidate for reelection should the republicans care to nominate him again. Town Clerk Francis H. Shaw also announces that he will run for his office again. The office of town clerk is voted upon every two years. The salary of the first selectman IS $500 while the second and third se' lecman are compensated with $40 for their labors.
 Due to the exceptional showing lmade by the democrats at the election EA1ast fall, when their candidate, the Ay a few votes and the election had to be decided by the court the followers af democracy are combing their ranks to run. The date of the democratic Boys Are Happy?

 The other wreck occurred on the hill just below the old cemetery. A heavily laden auto moving van, load ed with a quantity of household goods and large canoe, ran off the road, crashed through the guard rail and overturned in the ditch.

BASEBALL PLAYERS To THE FRONT /

here He said: When look around
here it seems Just like looking at a
crowd at the Polo grounds. Now, II
seems TO me that all Of US, fans and
ballplayers, are pretty much up
against the same sort Of thing We
have got 10 make a fight.
Il know the baseball fans are
willing to make a fight. because
have watched them long enough to
find that out, and we are not making
this fight because we want to take
anything from anybody, but simply
for the reason that we stand before
the world as one country that be-
lieves that every man should have
something TO say as to how he is
governed That means a free coun-
try, and we are all fighting for free
dom lust as much as when our great
grandfathers fought for it right IN
this neighborhood in 1776.
Il guess I come from a fighting
stock They tell that of every Irish
man. Anyhow. 1 have been fighting
for victories on baseball fields ever
since 1 was sixteen years old I am
going TO keep fighting until I get
so old I can't fight, and that will be
when they bury me
4 am in this fight, as the boys say,
up to the neck and every one Of my
boys is in it with me. We figure
il is a fight for the greatest thing
in the world-a mans personal lib
erty-and I don't know of a ball
player who isn't ready to go TO a
finish on that account.
