MURRAY'S | BOLS “7 WILLIMANTIC Boston Store Good Weather Brings Out the Voters WILLINANTIO, COMN,. . | aaanyAutsmebile fn UseThat: According to close followers of city elections since Willimantic was incor- ?on!ed in 1903 no pleasanter weather or December voting ever hfl.ypgned. The same served to bring out a big vote. Bright and early, when the poils opened, at 6 a. m. in the four wards both party leaders were on their jobs, and no time was lost In getting voters to the polls. This year automobiles outhumbered as means of transportation in getting the aged, the crippled and far away voters to the olls, and it was distinctly noticeable ow many more tripe the gasoline and steam vehicles made over old Dobbins. Up to the noon hour the number of votes cast was way in excess of former years, The candidates on the general ticket divided their time in visiting the voting places in the city, and the al- @ermanc candidates worked with a vim in their respective wards. The repub- lican headquarters was at Elmer Young's electric supply store, Church street, and the democratic headquar- ters was five doors north on the same streét, in Fred Green’s barber shop. The first ward polling place was in carpenter on Walnut street, with the following officials: Moderator, Patrick J. Danahey; official cheéker, A. Trudeau; challengers, John Donovan and Chauncey McFarlane; booth tenders, Patrick Doyle, Sr., and Adolph Valliant; envelopes,John Bolles An ‘hm ;:l‘adh o d il(ln.na .;Jba'"!‘;u, s erty an ler Jacobs. !lh 'he Slm “.ere Second ward: Moderator, George W. ivan; cl engers, gene J. 0 fs much of interest for|and winiam A.

(¢ [ 1§ RBPRE 8 gins, Herbert W, Clark, the democrat- ic candidate for the First made a hard fight and polled a fine vote in what has always been a staunch re- publican stronghold and succeeded in cutting down the republican majority. He but recently moved into the ward angd his fight is looked upon as all the more remarkable against such a strong opponent as C. C. Case, the well known paper manufacturer. ' Aldermen at Large Tew and Hol- brook polled big votes and completely upset republican calculations. The fight was very close in the Sec- ond ward, where the undertaker .laid out the painter by the scant margin of 25 votes, which shows that the painter had great strength, as he lowered the republican majority of wto years ago by 58 votes. Jay M. Shepard is a new man in the political rank and his elec- tion over Asher B, Holmes, the demo- cratic candidate, was very uncertain up to almost the closing of the polls. In the Fourth ward the contest be- tween C. B. Pomeroy, Jr., and Nelson B. Adams was also very close and the former only won out after the hardest kind of a tussle by 21 votes. Seldom has a more orderly election been conducted in the city and the absence of loathsome sights was com- mented upon by members of both par- ties. The usual celebration was held all over the city last night by the small boys, who had the times of their lives, all rooting lustily for Mayor Dunn. The new board of aldermen will be 4 to 3 republican. Elections Notes. The counters in the First ward were ‘Thomas J. Kelly, John Connors, Charles ‘Webster and W. D. Grant. Second ward—Eugene J. Randall, Willlam Jordan, Frank P, Fenton, Lawrence Casey. Third ward—Michael F. Sullivan, Willlam J. Sweeney, Frank L. Williams and Charles Lovett. Fourth ward—James 8. Donohue, Timothy J. Regan, Willard W. Hayden, Ernest P. Chesbro. The Fourth ward counters completed their work at 5.30 p. m., the Second and Third wards at 6 p. m.,, and the First ward at 6.45 p. m. The total vote cast in the First ward was 324, of which there was 114 straight democratic ballots and 100 re- publican. In the Second ward there was a total of 673 votes cast, of which there was 244 straight democratic ballots and 220 republican. In the Third ward, of the 308 votes cast, 208 were straight democratic ballots and 57 republican. The Fourth (over the river) ward cast 287 ballots, of which 109 were stralght democratic ballots and 96 re- publican. The above figures show the strength of what is generally termed the inde- pendent vote. Fully 25 per it. of the total vote cast {n the four wards was scratched or pasted ballots. The democrats continued the cele- bration of their victory by a tour of the city, the candidates being in teams, escorted by Montgomery Hose com- pany, No, 2, carrying about the city all the red fire to be obtained In town and then returned to the headquarters of the fire company on Jackson street, where a reception was held in honor of the entire ticket Various informal speeches were made by all of the suc- cessful candidates and others, among them ex-Mayor O. O. Tanner. SENTATIVES| 5 . Timothy E. Sullivan' of Jackson Street was the first voter to cast a bal- lot in the Second ward Monday, and Michael of Natchaug street the first in the ward.

If A Thousand People Told you that a certain thing had done them world’s of good, mental ly and physically, wouldn’t you feel it werth while to investigate the matter thoroughly, to find out how it might affect you? We have received thousands of testimonials from people who have voluntarily written us of the benefit derived from quitting coffee and using POSTUM The majority of these people had no DIDN'T KNOW That Coffee was Causing Her Trouble. So common is the use of coffee as a beverage, many do not know that it is the cause of many obscure ails which are often attributed to other things. The easiest way to find out for one- self is to quit the coffee for a while, at least, and note results. A Virginia lady found out in this way, and also learned of a new Dbeverage ' that is wholesome as well “as” pleasant to drink. She writes: “I am 40 years old, and all my life, up to a year and a half ago, thd been a coffee drinker. About ten years ago I had dyspepsia so bad that often the coffee I drank would sour on my stomach and I could not retain it. “Severe headaches and heart weak- ness made me feel sometimes as though I were about to dle. After drinking & cup or two of hot coffee, not knowing it was harmful, my heart would go lke a clock without a peén- dulum. At other times It would al- most stop and I was so nervous I did not like to be alone, and the pity of it all was, I did not know that coffee wag causing the trouble. “Reading in the papers that many persons were relieved of such allments by leaving off coffee and drinking Postum I got my husband to bring home a package.
