iuteresi is being displayed iii the preparations for tho local iluniciiial Election, hut it mav i)e taken for granted that there will be nothing approaching a frenzy until the bust week of the campaign. "Whilst tho Labour Tarty announced tlieir candidates and the Liberal Party gave notice that they will not contest the election several weeks ago_. the Conserva­ tive Party have not yet completely made up their minds. The certainty is that the Party will have four candidates and I hear that three of tho mimber are pretty well decided upon. Conn. Carter, is, of course, one and as one of the 'best figliters to appear before the electors he will probably set the pace so far as the Conservative PaVty is concerned. Wlien Ah\ W. Clayton, cx-Clu'of Constable of the liorough, was elected a Guardian of the Poor, 1 ventured to sugge.st that he would make a formidaliie candidate a t the Municipal Election.: I learn with interest th a t he will probalily he nomin­ ated by the C-oMsorvative Party.^ A third likely nomination is that of Mr. T. Miller, of Radeclyffe-street, well-known in tho t(jwn. and a niombor of tlie general committee of tlie Co-operativo Society. The fourth candidate has yet to be decided upon.


NOTES BY THE WAY. AVitli tlio approach of November iticreused


several otlior ratlier intimate (piestions iiave been addressed with varying politeness to every householder in tlie town during the week, and many are wondering what it is all about.

Is the Town Council trying to prove that there isn’t a housing .shortage:^ Tlie.se are .some of the ((Uestions lieoplo are asking. All these .speculations are wide of tlio mark. The men are .simply en­ gaged in taking a cenrsus of liousing accom­ modation and a t tho behe.st of tlio Govern­ ment, tlie same proco.ss is being gone through all over tlie kingdom.
