Aug. 2 ears. NOMINATION FOR STATE SENATOR ~ Former Mayor Allyn L. Brown scored a decisive victory for the nomination for state senator in the 19th district Thurs- day night in the Norwich republican cau- cus in the town hall, which was packed to the door. All four delegates wWho were pledged to his supbort in the senatorial convention were elected over the dele- sgates pledged to support former Repre- sentative Albert J. Bailey, who had the backing of the Tepublican town commit- tee for the nomination for senator. Mr. Brown won all the delegates also in the caucuses in the towns of Ledyard and Preston, which with Norwich make up the 19th senatorial district. N ‘After the vote on the first two candi- dates had tried out the strength of the rival factions, Mr. Brown's .supporters outvoting the opposition both times, Mr. Bailey had it announced for him that there would be no more nominations on his behalf, and he advised that the cau- cus concur in the election of delegates pledged to support Mr. Brown. A crowd of close to 1,000, who filled every seat and occupied standing room back to the doors at the rear of the hall, faced Judge Henry JH. Pettis, chairman of the republican town committee, when he called the caucus to order at 8 o'clock. On motion, of Robert McNeely, former Comgressman Bdwin W. Higgigs was elected chairman and took his place at the desk. Mr. Higgins recognized the presence of three prominent suffragists in the front seats in the hall by addressing the gath- ering as “Ladies and gentlemen” as he made brief remarks in which he acknow- ledged the honor of presiding at such a large and representative republican cau- ous. He welcomed the participation of Tepublicans and Titizens who helieved that the interest of the state and nation de- manded the election of men who stood for republican principles, and made a refer- ‘®nce to the ladies when he'said that, if it were not for the publicity of the occasion, he would be glad to extend the right hand of fellowship to those present who were newly to exercise the right of suffrage. Mr. Higgins announced the appaintment of Charles S. Holbrook, Harry L. Peter- son and Ewald von Hornig as,tellers, stating that these names had heen agreed to by the principals most vitally interest- ed in the outcome of the caucus. Town Clerk Holbrook read the call for the caucus and the following delegates to the republican state convention were elected without opposition: Henry H. Pet- tis, nominated by Selectman Casper K. Bailey; Stephen H. Reeves, nominated by Albert J. Bailey; George N. nominated by George Adams; James C. Fitzpatrick, nominated by Mayor Her- bert M. Lerou. There was also ne opposition to the election of the following delegates to the congressional convention: Dr. George Thompson, nominated by George N. Beardow ; Charles W. Cassidy, nominated by Andrew B. Davies; Dr. N. G. Gray, nominated by Albie L. Hale; Louis “H. Geer, nominated by Councilman William S. Murray. Then the nominations for delegates to the senatorial convention were and Herbert B. Cary raised a bu applause when he nominated for the first delegate Frank B. Ricketson of Taftville, who is the agent of the Ponemah mills From printed ballots that have been dis tributed in the city and advertisements in the papers it was well known that Mr. Ricketson would support Mr. Brown for the nomination for state senator. Mayor Herbert M. Lerou's name was applauded as he-was nominated against Mr. Ricket- son by H. H. Gallup, who commended Mr. Lerou as a man who is well known, is a prosperous business man and prop- erty holder and the honored mayor of the city. It was readily recognized that Mayor Lerou would favor Mr. Bailey for state senator. On motion of Judge Pettis the vote was taken by passing from left to right of desk in front of the teflers and the mill- ing mass of voters began to press their way forward after Chairman Higgins had warned them about using patience and tolerance in their efforts to record their vo It took 30 minutes for the crowd to| file past and at the end of that time Mr. Higgins announced the vote as counted by the tellers as follows: Whole vote cast ..... .74 Necessary for' choice 398 H. M. Lerou .339 F. B. Ricketson ........%...455 Mr. Ricketson was declared elected amid a great shout sent up by his sup- porters. For the second delegate James C. Fitz- patrick nominated Joseph H. Henderson and Oscar W. Carpenter nominated Ed- ward Crooks., whom he designated as a ‘“genujne republican.” Chairman Higgins stated that ‘at the request of both candidates for the sen- atorial nomination it had been, agreed that it should be stated to the caucus that Mry Henderson favored the momin- ation of Mr. Bailey and Mr. Crooks was for Mr. Brown. Again the crowd crushed its way past through the narrow aisle in front of the desk for ‘twenty-five minutes before the last man had cast his ballot. The vote was announced by the chair- man as follows: Whole number cast .. Necessary for choice Joseph H. Henderson ... Edward Crooks Mr. amid another tumult of applause and shouting. As the mext nomination was about to be made Judge Pettis stepped to the front and said that at the request of Mr. Bailey he wished to state that no mora nominations would be made on ' behalf of Mr. Bailey who wished Mr. Pettis to say that he hoped the caucus would concur in the selection of defegates Who would supgort Ma. Brown. The an- nouncement was 'greeted with applause and the next two of Mr. Brown's dele- gates were unanimously elected by ac- clamation when Edwif Hill nominated Alderman Chiarles F. Wells, Who is pres- ident of the chamber of comimerce, and Guy B. Dolheare nominated Charles A. Saxton of Norwich Town. With the nominations concludedl Mr. Pailey addressed the caucus and sala that while this had been a hard fought contest it had been a zean fieht by both sides. He thanke? the people Who had stood back of lis delegates and said he hoped they would stand back of the man who would he nominated and do_all in their power to elect him semator. For mself he said he would take off his coat and work ever harder than he might have for 'himself to make Mr. Brown the sen- ator from the 19th district. There was enthusiastic applause for the defeated aspirant’s graceful words, and Mr. Brown followed him with brief remarks in which he said that this had been merely a family squabble that had been ironed out all right, from his stand- Point, and he thanked his supporters and would thank all those who-Would Support him at the polls. The caucus came to an end wWith the clection of four delegates to_the probate convention. These were A. D. Zabr ated by George E. Fellow nominated by Geor: H. Pedace. nominated by A. J. ailey and E. B. Worthington, nominated by Selectman Bailey. After_passing a _motion offered by T Lerou empowering the town com- to fill any vacancies occurrine, the caucus adjourmed at 9.20 and muny congratulated Mr. Brown as they pass- ed’out of the hall LEDYARD UNANIMOUS FOR BROWN FOR SENATOR Ledyard, as was forecasted several days ago, elected delegates at their cau- cus on Thursday afternoon to support Al- Iyn L. Brown of Norwich for senator from the 19th district. The total vote cast at the caucus was about 40 and stood unanimous for Mr. Brown's delegates. William I Allyn was moderator of the caucus and F.

The result, how- ever ,was in favor of the Brown dele- gates, who were elected by a 53 to 37 vote gainst the Dailey delegates for the sena- torial convention. William 1.
