That there that the followers of Wilson carry Plainville at the November election is now claimed by democratic leaders and while the republicans will not admit that there is any likeli- hood that their candidates will face defeat here they confe: that there is a strong and growing sentiment in the town for the re-election of the president and unl many of the members P. will register their Hughes, although they may split in favor of state and local candidates. of the democrats saild today that during the past two have signified their intention of en- dorsing the president and the former progressives, practically to a man, have declared that they will cast their votes for Wilson, refusing follow their former leader. The | democrats are jubilant over the out- look and they predict that the town will desert republicanism, giving a majority for the administration. William J. Simpson, candidates for representative, among the leaders of the G. who realizes that the tide is turning towards Wilson. With characteristic frankness, Mr. Simpson sald this morning that the outlook for the demoorats in the country and state as well looks bright. He stated that in Plainville he knows republicans who are going to support Wilson but he has hopes that the town will re- turn a majority for the G. O. P. nom- inee. Mr. Simpson, with many other republicans in this section, does not believe that the campaign of Hughes and Roosevelt has been the success which had been predicted when the former supreme court justice was nominated. Their attacks on the president have been unwarranted, he declares, and may serve as a boom- erang on eclection day. “Wilson has been president for four years,”” Mr. Simpson sald,” and he is entitled to some respect as the nation’'s chief executive. Mr. Simpson has many loyal friends in the town who are no doubt anxious to send him to the general assembly. His frankness in discussing the po- litical situation and his outspokenness against the Hughes' style of attack should not hurt his candidacy with fair-minded men. In fact it is like- ly that it will attract the votes of independents and will bring him de- serving support. Although he is a republican and one of the party's nominees for office, Mr. Simpson seemingly stands ready to treat his opponents with due courtesy and his attitude should add to his strength at the polls on election day. Cancels Order for Ballots, Following the arrival of voting ma- chines to be used at the election next month Town Clerk R. O. Usher has written to the secretary of state can- celling an order for Australian bal- lots which was filed a few weeks ago. Samples of the ballot have been re- ceived here. The ballots were ordered when there were indications that the se- lectmen might be unable to get the machines, Representatives of the company are expected here hourly by the of- ficlals. The machines remain in the crates in which they were shipped and will not be disturbed until the com- pany’s mechanics get here to put them in positton The selectmen hope that by Satur- day they will be able to have the apparatus on exhibition for the bene- fit of the voters. J. C. Carlson is confined in the lock-up awaiting a hearing before Justice A. H. Condell on charges of drunkenness and breach of the peace, the result of his refusal to leave the streets when ordered to do so yester- Gay afternoon by Constable Marino.

Many ingenuous schemes for divorcing the patrons from their loose change have been planned by the club and it will be | indeed a hard-hearted visitor who will not “kick in” when approached ty the canvassers. The party is for the beneflt of the library fund and it will no doubt be liberally supported. Tomorrow afternoon there will be a sale of food, candy and fancy ar- ticles in connection with the party.
