~ ELECTION DAY 'IN WESTERLY Systematic Fight Against License—Officials at the Polling Places—Dry Regime Begins in Pawcatuck—Catholic Club Established in Elegantly Fitted Quarters— —Town Votes For Continuation of License. There was a state election in Rhode Island Tuesday, but in Westerly, the stronghold- of republicanism, interest #as centered on the license vote, the majority of workers being on the side ©f no-license. Ministers and merchants were assisting in getting out the vote and many owners of touring cars loaned them for the day, with chauf- feurs, to aid in the party work. Never before was there such devoted and sys- tematic work against license, caused by the town of Westerly going into the no-license column for the first time a year ago. If there was sys- tematic working for Mcense it was not ested in the vicinity of the poll- places, and there was no scurry- :b‘ about in autemobiles to get out the icense vote. - It being a foregone con- lusion that the republican nominees lor senator, representatives and state fficers would receive the full party yote, all effort was devoted to the vote »r_the license quewtion. The First representative polling dis- Jrict was in Unity hall and the officers Fere: Ira B. Crandall, moderator; John Dunn, clerk: Robert G. Thackeray, verett A. Kingsley, republican super- ~isors; Dwight Cornell and Edward Farrell, democratic supervisors; Her- bert P, Clark, officer. ‘The polling place of the Second dis- trict was in the town hall and the etection officials were: Fugene B. Pen- @leton, moderator; Lewis Stanton, lerk; Everett E. Barmns, Russell’ L. ‘nocum republican supervisors; Hor- e Swan, Bernard Cristy, democratic pervisors; Adam_Archis, officer. The polls onened at 9 o'clock and Wosed at 5, and the result of the elec- Yon was as followa: For Governor— Pistricts 1st. 2d. Total ram J. Pothler, r..... 366 ewis A. Waterman, 4.. 150 Irnest L.

In the First district there were 18| defective and blank ballots and in the Becond there were 16 blank ballots. The First district last year majority of 65 for license, and the Sec- ond district 50 against license.The to- tal vote on license in the First dis- trot was 559 and in the Second 622. a grand total of 1,181. The total vo'e of the town is 1438. Therefore all but 252 .gualified electors voted on the li- cense question. In the Firat district there were 299 | dem- | straight republican tickets, 96 ocratic, 13 prohibition and 2 socialis There were 136 split tickets, 5 blank and 7 defectlve ballots. In the Second district there were 362 straight republican tickets, 108 demo- eratic, 20 prohibition, 2 socialist and 8 soclalist labor. The result was a complete surprise to ell who engaged in the active work of the day, for up to the time of the commencement of the count no one could be found to openly declare opin- ion that the town of Westerly would ocontinue in the license column for an- other year. It is self-evident that ! those who voted for license a vear aga were satisfled with the experiment and favored its contlnuance. there were four tickets on the official ballot, republican, democratic, prohi- bition, socialist and socialist labor, and. ) WHY DO THEY DO IT? “Why people should weep over the fmaginary sorrows shown on the rtage, when there §s so much re: morrow in the world, I never could un- derstand,” says a well known writer.
