Attorney Charles ¥, Thayer as that the case be iutponld for one week, as he would be oocupied im the supreme court the greater part of nekt week, and had mot had the oppor- tanfy to summon In some imporiant witnesses. Iie declared that Attor- ney Hadlai A. Hull, who represented Meintiff, had given Mim tentativ sent o a coniinuance for one week. Attorney Muli stated to the court thet there wers five voting districts in the town of Stonington, and that om election night the Third @istrict court ahewed that 47 votes were cast against lieense and 21 for license, and that the tabulated report im the ballot box would serve as verification. In the copy sent to the eeutral mederator the figures, by ‘were reversed, and thers were Yes 47 and No. 21. The actien is Browght by Mr. Palmer, who made the mistake, and isSupported by the ceunters, and Mr. Hull said he be- Heved that the copy of the returns new in the ballot box is probably cor- rect. Question has been raised by the newspapers of the legal right to open the licemse ballot boxes, as no pro- vision was made in law for any such actiom, But Mr. Huli mentioned that the provision of the law of 1909 was clear on this point Hull declared that the lig- uor dealers of the town of Stonington had retained Attorney Thayer to rep- resent them in this metter and Mr. Hull claimed that tke liquor dealers had .0 staadirg in the matter. The fact of holding license makes no dif- ference, for licemse is a privilege and not a right, and that therefore Mr. Thayer's clients had no standing. He declared that Attorney George R. Mc- Kenna was counsellor for the town of Stonington and was representing the irst selectman in this matter, Mr. Hull said there was no for delay, but that there was for prompt and decisive action, as the ‘lcense year ended with this month and that licemsed dealers had flled ap- plicatione for renewals ‘with the coun- ty commissioners. BEverybody know that the town of Stonington has vote azainst no-license and there no d pute on that point, but it nceded an error was made in tabulating the raturns made to the central moderator. All the people of the town, said Hun ow the conditions and th question as to the actual vote, ’nr tonington has only gone license once in twenty vears before the pres- ent license year and has now voted 1o returm to the old, the regular, no- leense system.

He said he also represented those whose properly interests might be affected. Any person_ haying vital interest at stake shonld be parties to this p ceeding. The court's finding will not be based upen what Mr. Hull s: erybody knews, but by evidence will be given consideration and fore thst evidence is complete there must Lé Tesort to the ballot box, and that will probably not be done until it is decided whether the election in that district was feirly and legally conducted. Mr. Thayer claimed that the election was illegal all through and he hoped to make tne hearing more interesting than now appears. Attorney Thayver atated that Attor- ney Hull did not say te him that he would contest a motion for continu- ance. He said he asked for only a week so that he could be freed from the supreme court session and that there was no intent to extend the con- tinuance bevond November 1, the end of the license vear. Mr. Thayer said that the case would not be decided on thd say-so that everybody knew the contents of the ballot box, but that the evidence of both sides must first be heard. The talk that the town had not gone for license within twenty years had no bearing on the case, for as a matier of fact Stoningten was a license town now. The real facts will not be wiped out by Mr. Hull's inter- pretation of the minds of the people. The moderstor and counters of the Third district made oath to the return sent the mogerator of the central d trict, and now they make oath to some- thing entirely different. He believed the whole clection should be wiped out, as it was conducted illegally. He insisted that the court should hear all sides of the matter in court, no mat- ter what “everybody knows,” for some {imes it is generally incorrect. i Thayer said he wanted time to proper attention to the important case. Attorney Hull insisted on a prompt hearing and declared that if it was the intention of Mr. Thayer to show that the election was void all the way threugh that he had kept it well under cover, If Selectman Holdredge wiil say that Mr. Thayer is counsel for th town of Stomington and not for i liquor dealers there might be a chang in the situation. He declared thal the will of tha people should mnot be thwarted and that the result of Lhe ‘vote in the Third district should be definitely known and that could not be done without a recount of the bhallots. If, as Mr. Thayer claims, the vote all the way through was illegal, and that the vote of license of last year should stand, it is no part of the present pr ceedin, Such a case can be brought under statutory provisions. Attorney George R. McKenna stated that as_attorney for the town of Ston- ington he reprecented the selectmen in ihis matter. He said the board of lectmen were desirous that loth sices be threshed cut, for the selectmen were not actuated in the interests of any one, put wanted the case adjudicited according to law. As attorney for the town he was not interested in having = Gelay. 'udge Reed stated that he was of the opinion that the case ought to be dispesed of without delay. He believed | there was reason for fhe application that was in court, and that was the only question for him to dedide. Attorney Thayer said that if a con- tinuance of cne weck was granted none of tne parties would be imper- illed, &and ceriainly the court was de sirous of hearing both sides of the case. He said he could have his c ready by Sature Judge Reed d he could not hold court on that day, and sugsgested next Monday.
