Automobiles were kept busy during the day to bring in the voters to the polls, and the large vote indicates that this particular move in the game was worked to the limit. But for the #iquor license question, and the Second rep- resentative district, where both repub- licans ran as independents and one with democratic indorsemeht, there would have been no hustle and bustle, as the town is so solidly republican that there would be no need for it. In addition, there was some interest cre- ated in the opposition of some republi- cans to the nomination of Albert H. Langworthy, who declared in advance that they would bolt the party nomina- tion and vote for Tristam D. Babcock. democrat. % 1'3 Woman’s Christian Temperance uniol took an active part in the clec- tion. They had patriotic decorated au- tomobiles in use and at the foot of the staircase they. distributed no-license literature, brief and to the point, so that the voter might read while climb- ing the stairs for his official ballot. The election officials were: First district—Ira B. C dall, moderator; John J. Dunn, clerk; James H. Hodg- son, Michael J. Turano, republican su- pervisors; Clarence L. Clarke, Edward A. Farrell, democratic supervisors; Patrick H. Morrison, gate tender. Second district—Eugene B. Pendleton, moderator; Lewis Stanton, clerk; Rus- sell L. Slocum, James A.
