The largest vote in recent years was polled at the annual town eclec- tion yesterday and the republicans won all of the offices by a large majority. The school board contro- versy brought out many who were uninterested in the voting otherwi: | The republicans have backed the su- perintendent in his recent quarrel with the teachers and the democrats sided with the teachers. The vote terday showed that' the ma- jority of the people are behind the superintendent of schools and the re- publican party in the stand taken in the controversy, whose echo is still heard throughout the country. Arguments in favor of the establish- ment of a police department in the town are becoming stronger every day. At the present.time, the con- tables are overworked and the in creasing detective work and crease in the number ‘of arrests being made, the need of a department other than a constabulary is cvident.
