A Communication. 
To the Republicans of Manchester: 
Gentlemen: In regard to the Shaw 
-Hubbard senatorial contest, it seems 
to me that much has been said that 
does not at all apply to the situation. 
Some of us think that Mr. Shaw 
should not demand the nomination to 
represent the town without being 
asked by our citizens, and we believe 
our ideas are sound and should be 
followed by the party. 
In making the town committee 
seven for the ensuing year, we harm 
no one and prevent none from being 
elected members of that committee, 
for all have a right to present at the 
caucus as many tickets as they please, 
of seven members each, and to amend 
any ticket. 
We are not, trying. tom“ runs the 
party,” but firmly believe we are in the 
right, and see no reason why we can- 
not vote as we think best. 
A conference was held with the 
chairman and secretary of Mr. Shaw’s 
committee, and they demanded the 
right to name the senatorial delegates 
and to reorganize the town committee, 
demanding all and granting nothing. 
There is no choice for us except to 
present our ticket at the caucus and 
leave the voters to choose for them- 
selves. We believe the affairs of the 
party to have been conducted in a 
business-like manner in the past, and 
we are willing to trust the future to 
the citizens. If defeated, we shall 
retire cheerfully from office. 
We wish all Republicans of the 
town would attend this caucus and 
vote as they think best. 
I also wish it distinctly understood 
NORTH SHORE! BREEZE 
that this is the only communication 
submitted by me to any paper during 
this contest. 
Respectfully yours, 
FRANKLIN K.°“HOOPER, 
Chairman Republican’ Town Commit- 
tee: 
MANCHESTER, Mass., 
Sept. 21, 1905. 
WHISPERINGS. 
We regret that our Swift-Speeder 
Speedily Suppressed Specialist Pea- 
body landed in Sing Sing so soon 
after he arrived in Gotham, but we 
were gratified to know that they could 
not keep him there. 
“Do you know” anybody can get 
into jail, but it takes a good man to 
get out. JI am told that when he said 
“stop watch’’ the guards could not 
move an inch, and he simply walked 
out. 
Don’t you try it, boys, if you go 
over ; it might not work in your case, 
and we would have to send Swett 
over with the “ Town pump”’ to bail 
you out, and that costs $3 per load.

Why all this talk about President 
Roosevelt going to the bottom of the 
sea in the submarine boat ‘‘ Plunger!” 
There is nothing unusual about the 
performance. Teddy has had a repu- 
tation for years of going to the bottom 
of everything. 
White peaches is the latest variety 
of the fruit on the market. It is a 
cross between a luscious Delaware 
peach and a barrel of flour. At least, 
that is what I am told. Dennis and 
Campbell have the exclusive agency 
for them. It seems that concern had 
some come down from Boston the 
other night, and in some unaccounta- 
ble manner during their transition 
from Boston to Manchester a barrel 
of flour was partly emptied over them, 
and the sight which met the eyes of 
the owners when they went to the 
freight car in the morning was any- 
thing but pleasing.

Republican Caucuses. 
Next Tuesday Evzning. 
The Republican caucuses in Man- 
chester next Tuesday evening have 
promise of being the most lively and 
of attracting the largest number of 
voters in years. From every indica- 
tion there is to be a wide-awake cau- 
JAMES F. SHAW. 
cus, something out of the ordinary for 
Manchester. 
fiThe purpose of the caucus is to 
elect two delegates to each of the 
following conventions: Republican 
State, councillor, county and senato- 
rial, and four delegates to the repre- 
sentative convention. Also, to elect 
a Republican committee of seven for 
the ensuing year. 
Of course Manchester’s interest 
this year is in the senatorial conven- 
tion, as James F. Shaw is a candidate 
to represent Manchester in the Senate 
from this district. While Mr. Hub- 
bard, his only opponent, withdrew~ 
from the field several weeks ago, thus 
leaving everything to the Manchester 
man, the Shaw committee here want 
to give their man a big. send-off and 
a full vote. 
There is to bea band concert on 
the common during the evening, and 
an impromptu parade will follow the 
caucus. There will be plenty of red 
fire, and a general good time is in 
store. Everybody should turn out to 
the caucus on Tuesday evening. The 
hour of meeting is 7.30, and the polls 
will probably be open at 8 and remain 
open till 9 o’clock. 
Jap-a-lac is quite the thing for touch- 
ing up old furniture, floors, doors, etc.
