 BACKS BRAHEN
Promises Support to See
 lectman in Coming Campaign
SEVERAL RIVALS OUT

The local Roosevelt club has made 1t known to Selectman Brahen that he may depend on their support in the coming elec- ton. Several other candidates have declared their intention to with draw from the race as long as Selectman Brahen cares to run. MT Brahen has served the town long and faithfully and his many supporters are pleased that he has decided to run.
 1t Is very evident that there will be packed house Monday night as there are all kinds of candidates for office. However, there will be a check made of all those who at- tend and only those who are bona fde voters on the list will be ad-
 mitted. It Is also understood that there will be competition over the
 registrar of voters in the first dis
 trict as Edwin Kenny will again oppose Ed Canfield. Last year
 Kenny was defeated by some 20 votes.
 There will also be competition
 over the constable job as there has
 been in the past since the job has become lucrative. Officer Harty
 has been working diligently in the Oakville section bringing in new voters. Harty bolted the party last
 year when he failed to receive the
 nomination for constable and ran on an independent ticket and won. This year, however, according to the r,.ing of the states attorney any one who bolts a party Is not eligible to run as 6 member of that x,a ,.t ot fu a 1t n n ffco 1Ix Af1f by the previous action. Whether this will be enforced remains to be seen.
 F. r. McGowan's term on the board of education expires but every one is aware of the wonder full service that MT McGowan has given and is able to give In this office. For this reason no one will be anxious to oppose him. As a member of the building committee MT McGowan has done some very good work.
 The republican caucus was held last night in the town hall and was quite a lively scene. The cau- cuses, both republican and demo- cratic, are the battle grounds in Watertown since the voting in the town election has always been just n matter of form. Lewis and Reichenbach were the town com mittee's choice but the nominn- tl0ns from the floor included Camp. Campbell and Shaw. After several ballots Mir Lewis was chosen first selectman and Shaw second. The other offices were filled as suggested by the slate. for e0nstnb bles Vio V0ghstr0m. Jack MccIeary.
