There arethree active candidates for tax collectors, Mrs. Nickerson, Mr. Chainand Mr. Dold, with possibly one ortwo more in the offing, but a s t hi sis written no papers have appearedfor Councilmanic candidates, and iti s s aid that four new members wil lhave t o be e le ct ed next fall as t hereport is that the present legislatorsare not d is posed to run again.Ther e' s no doubt tha t considerablesacrifice and disappointment is attached to public service in a sma llcommunity, as not only mus t t hework be done without financial compensation, but wha teve r is clone issure t o have i ts c ri ti cs . and the

    "poli tica l mind" which is necessaryto ove rcome thi s i s not a par ti cu la rly prevalent commodity. Nevertheless, those who h av e t he r eal c ap aci ty whi ch t he c ir cums ta nc es r equire, the intelligence, judgment andexperience, ought to be willi ng tospend themselve s a b it in behal f oftheir fellow-citizens, and it is hopedt ha t s ome wor th y candidates wiIIhoist their standard within the nextfew weeks. vVe must a ls o el ect anew Burgess , as under t he l aw Mr.:Metzger cannot succeed himself ,and that is an office which shouldreceive the special attention o f o ur.citizens.
