The general fmpression among the license men is that they lost the fight because some dissatisfied politicians in the north part of the town did not get what they wanted in the demoeratic caucus on Saturday afternoon of last week. There was a faction at Attawaugan and Ballouville that were strong for nominating three selectmen on the demoeratic ticket, and because they could not carry the peint they were very much and some of them openly stated that they would work against license to even up mat- ters. The victory for license last year was gained with a majority of forty votes and a change of only 25 votes in the entire tewn, with nearly 1,500 vot- ters, was all that was necessary to majority of 10, While the liguor dealers still have & month to do business, they are al- ready making errangements for clos ing their places. Town to Sell Sites and Four School- housss. ~ The sale of such property in the town of Killingly’as was formerly em- ployed for school purposes and is no longer required in that service has been avthorized by the voters of the town.

They are kouwn as the Warren, Horse ~Hill, Ledge and Mashentuck schools, now clcsed because of the modern: method of centralization. The buildings are all small, in outlying parts of the town. While no great amount of money can be reallzed from their sale, they are of no value as held, and the move to sell them is generally considered a wise one. TO LIMIT EXPENDITURES.

DECLARED ILLEGAL. Sixty-Nine Snide Ballots of Which Democrats Knew Nothing. The men There was a mighty sore aggrega- tion of democrats in Putnam Tuesday because of one of the incidents of Monday’ The incident re- sulted in sixty-nine of the party tick- ets being deciared illegal as far as the names of the candidates for school committee were concerned, The dem- ocrats were not kicking any Tuesday because the ballots were thrown ouf, ‘but because of the manner in which the illegal tickets were prepared and finally found themselves in the hands of the voters. A member of the democratic town committee said Tuesday that the bal- lots were printed without the knowl- edge or consent of the committee and that he had learned they had been run through the press some time between midnight Sunday pight and 6 o'clock Monday morning. These tickets car- Tied the names of Eric H. Johnsqn and Joseph Lapalme for members of the school eemmittea for full terms and the names of Charles P, Thurber to fill a_vacancy for [ ] and John W. Walker to fill & vacancy for two years as members of the town schoo! committee. Neither Mr. Thurber nor Mr. Walker was nominated in the party caucus nor were their names placed upon the ticket by authority of the democratic town committee. Nevertheless the ballots bearing the names of the four gentlemen mentioned found their way into the booth at the polling place he- fore voting commenced. Before the error was discovered sixty-nine of them had been deposited. The remain- der were destroyed. Tt is said that the ballots could have been declared entirely illegal, but In- asmuch as they did not affect any of the republican candidates for office they were allowed to count except for the candidates for the school commit- tee.
