RipsA, ever to the holding of csucuses-l thFee of them this year. That there is sltEeiy political interest Is indicated by kGe Attendance at all of the caucuses. ;, fhs republicans, stepping of with stheiy list of nominees, drew an attend anes of nearly 300. An unusually large ,demerratic caucus Saturday afternoon hreught out an attendance estimated by ,Segie to be as high as 200, and the new about 7S Saturday afternoon when 1t eaueused' in the Majestic theatre and named it's ticket.
 ss The. stage Is now set for the activt- ties. that always precede an election es- pecisily when there Is the live interest nrevSient this year. Included in the tefeeasts are the predictions that there wfll be. really warn competition for places on the board of selectmen and Hharp contest over the office of tax collector Other places on the tickets will furnish milder forms of effort to land winner.
 sAs the nominees are aligned. the re- vuslieans. as some of the leaders ex- press their opinion, expect to win, though they realize they have q fight on their hands.

Downs made 1t very sicar that he Is a republican. and 1t maybe noted in passing that he partici- peted In the republican caucus that iskn1ed It's candidates for the coming tlecttou He was admittedly not con. s1lteds relative to- being nominated, 80 ,b.xeil.s within his right in declining to lrFuBH It so happens that Rev Mir. Downs was nominated not only for se- lnstnnAA but also for member of the Aswn School. committee on the new par ,lS's. ticket. Thus two places of im- b.sFtsnee on this ticket are practically SuteHomatically vacated by Rev. MT. bSsnsS announcement.
