This conclusion is not -arrived at from any systematic sounding' of public sentiment, but is founded on dtetemeota made by the men who h-'ve had charge of the town's affairs during tale year that is now approaching .a close. This week a Signal representative interviewed the city fathers individu- ally and asked them for a statement .(s tri :whether they intended entering the field fol municipal honors for 1911 or not. -. .
