TOWN MEETING COMMENT. 
This year made the 21st that John 
Henry Cheever was candidate for the 
office of selectman in Manchester. 
That he is a pretty sure winner is 
shown by the fact that he won out 
GHASE TRUCKS 
nineteen times. He served the tow 
first in 1870 on the board with Joh 
Lee and William A. Stone, and h 
served at that time for five years. Hi 
was re-elected in 1878 and serve 
continuously until 1886. He wa 
elected again in 1889. He has bee 
elected several years since then an 
this week he started upon his 10 
year of service for the town. 
The Board of Selectmen have or 
ganized with the choice of Edwar 
S. Knight as chairman and Walter R 
Bell as clerk| Mr. Knight has seryeé 
as chairman of the board sever 
years and he is regarded as one of 
best officials, in his capacity as chal 
man, that has served the town i 
recent years. 
The police in politics! Has it oc 
curred to anyone that some of the 
Manchester police are unduly active 
in town politics. And we are work- 
ing under civil service, too! We ven 
ture to say that the town of Man- 
chester has paid at least one of its 
police more than one week’s salary 
the last two months for doing nothing 
but talk politics, running down the 
town and its officials generally. Last 
year when we were called upon to 
consider the adoption of the civil 
service for police, we thought one of 
the best things to be gained was that 
the police would be taken out of pol- 
itics. Rot! 
Superintendent Andrews of the 
Water Works received notice this 
morning from the Board of Water 
Commissioners that his services as 
superintendent would not be required 
after the First of April. This comes 
as the result of Monday’s election 
when the matter was put up to the 
voters to decide, at Mr, Andrews’ own 
request. He was asked at a meeting 
of the board Tuesday night to resign. 
This he refused to do and at last 
night's meeting the notice was given 
him as stated above.
