NEW LONDON'S HOT CITY MEETING (Continued from page nine.) ticeable, for when that question is be- fore the people there is something do- ing just befors electlon time that is encouragihg to candidates for election, as there is sure to be a big vote poli- ed, and the candidates are not required to mak, pecial effort to get .out tl vote. hat part of the election is tended to by the parties directly inte: ested in the license vote. In thet way the candidates are saved time to de- vote to other features of a politioal campaign and are also saved no little bill of expense. a week end vis- 1 Then again, the long time between nomhation.and election day under the new law has had tendency to decrease public interest as election time draws near, as there is nowhere near the in- terest now as there was on the night of the city -convention or the week following, as a result of the candl- dates, some of them, have beem com- pelled to create some interest by the button-hols game and personal visi- ation to the homes of the lukewarm felows of the other side, resting east- 1y under the belief that they will re- celve their party vote. While there is lively work by the nominzes for town and city clerk- ships and for aldermen, Qhero is little or nothing being done by the other nominees, all of which indicates that there will not be a very spirited elec- tion and that under the new election ballot there will be more straight vet- ing in the coming city and town elec- tlon than ever. If that he so, theres will be no doubt as to the result, as, according to the registrars, and they ought to know, the city hes e normal republican, meajority of at least 400. There is likely to be a lively con- test over the republioan nominations for representatives to the general a: sembly, as there are four political hats and only two political pets. Tf the wishes of the voters of New Londen, without ragard to party, are cousider- ed, Touls E. Whiton will be renomi- nated without opposition, and the fight will ‘center on the other candidates for the second place. It is understood that the towa committee and others prominent in party leadership realize the importance of giving Mr. Whiton a second term in the legislature, especial- ly as he has announced himself as un- equivocally in favor of the re-electinn of Morgan G. Bulkeley to the United States senate. Lewis E. Crandal, a young attor- ney, is backed by the town committee, and a still younger attorney, Edmund J. Congdon, is backed by hims by workers of his pewsonal selection. While still another attorney-at-law, Philip Z. Hankey, who has publicly stated his position on the publc utii- ties - question, can be congidered as being more than a receptive capdidate. Then there is still ancther attorney, a convert to republieanism, Richard D. Freeman, who would readily acept the nominetion if there was a strife be- tween the other three that could not be harmoniously settled. Effort will be made to have the plu- rality rule prevail in the caucus that nominates representatives, as was the case in the contest for the nomination of town clerk, but there will be oppo- eition to any such move. Insistence wil be madae that in order to recelve the nomination the candidats must re- ceive a majority of all votes cast. THE PARK & POLLARD CO. . ensshould have it before all the time.
