In a measure this was chiefly due to the fact that.the democrats have been unusually ‘active throughout this district this fall, and the republican campaign directors’ were stirred to real activity. « Despite the bad weather upwardes of 1,800 votes out of a total of 2,505 on the voting list had been cast Up to 4.30 p. m., when it was forecastedfthat the total before the polls closed Wbuld reach to or over 2.000. £ ‘While there appears to have .been more or less uncertainty among repub- lican leaders as to what might happen to some of their candidates, the opposite optimism that might .ie expected among the democratic leaders .was absent, and some of them were conceeding early in the day that they could not hope to overcome the ..normal republican strength' in Putpam, . although . compli- mentary votes were anticipated for some —_— What Is Going On Tonight 14.

C, addressing a republican rally in the town hall on the eve of election, ifcluded . in her remarks some comment réjative to. independent voters that tir- red the ire of some who heard her. Be- ing ‘an’ independent, as one might ga-| ther from what she had to say about this group of votefs, is one degree from'| elng notliBg. {'Bling almglance and dumb obedience 1o, party programs. and party discipline " set forth as the speaker's view- iat of what constitutes good citizen- ip insofar as it applies to exercising the right’ of franchise. A thoroughly Prussianized electorate was set up as ry. Blair's ideal. No. individual theught or liberty of action should em- ter; Into One's a but only unre- rved affiliation with some establish- party, preferably the republican. It so happens that a great many of ;mi-‘ly'l eitizens, as elsewhere ‘threughout the country, are in complete | dlsagreement with Mrs. Blair's view- | t ‘as to this. These voters, who meede nothing to anyone in_thorough Amtéricanism, are not yet ready to as- thelr rights or viewpoints as elec-| to any party or set of leaders, after the manner that one might Motz pardel of real estate with an for disposal, and it seems proper t expression should be given to thix . at this time. . Independent voters at least think for miselves, ‘They do not accept their foms ready made. This may seem reprehensible to such an ardent “campaigner as Mrs. Blair, byt it is a faet nevertheless and recognition of it may ‘be profitable to thosei who, like Mrs, Blair, would by ridicule.attempt t3 Sigsuade them from any other'course in ,/than. one..in which 8" kaiser might put them in uniform; and send them - forth to do his biddipg, whatever peplty / obedience might entail, "“Notwifistanding the best efforts of harty mamagers.to get out as close as possible to 100 per cent. of the voting trewgth ot the town in Tuesday's elec- tion ‘this .was not accomplished.

Tomorrow (Thursday) evening mem- bers ‘of the American Legion ate to en- tertain members of the G. A. R., at the Orpheum theater. At the Bohemian club Tuesday ‘oven- ing scores of members held ~ forth for hours listening to election returns, en- joying the lunch that was served for this special occasion, enjoying the match games in the pool and tournanfent and otherwise amusing themselves. of telephone inquiries were received at the club for election results, these in- quiries coming from all parts of the town of Killmgly and the surrounding towns, Members of the Knights of Columbus spent a most enjoyable evening at their in the Gallup building Tues- day. A pitch tournament was staged while ' the mempers waited about for election returns and there was a smok- er and lunch was served. Masons and bricklayers in this terri- tory are receiving some remarkable of- fers for their services if they will go to New York, where there is a rush to close in buildings now under construc- tlon before cold weather sets in and puts a hait to outside work. Wages offered are said to outmatch the unpre- cedented rates paid during the period of the World war and the period after the close of hostilities. There was little of the old-time elec- tion day animosity between party work- ers in the town of Killingly during Tuesday’s balloting. Everything seemed as serene as though the workers were engaged in their usual daily . occupa- tions. Good fellowship was the = rule, notwithstanding that both sides were exerting themselves to achieve a victory for their party. Next Saturday will be marked by an event of interest for members of the Windham County Agricultural _society. They are scheduted to meet at Brooklyn to elect officers and transact other im- portant business. The society was very successful with its fair at Brooklyn during September. It is suggested in the Imterest of pa- triotism that there be a very general display of flags on homes, public build- ings and business places in Danielson next Saturday in recognition of Armis-, tice day. Scores of those who served over there or were in camps in this country ready for any call that might be made upon them will be honored by display of the national colors, as will all .who nave served in any of the wars in which the nation has been involved. Election officials found the twelves hour tour of duty in which they were engaged on Tuesday a somewhat ardu- ous experience. The compensation is not large and the duties exacting,. but the work rates as public sérvice; which many are prone to evade. Very little money changed hands in Danielson on the outcome of the elec- tion. There was little betting here, al- though many were inclined to be very positive ia their predictions as to the outcome of the voting.

Harold Gilpatric of this city was the republi- can candidates, and in the Tesult of the contest for sheriff, Putnam also having a favorite son in this race in the per- son of John G. Fox, the democratic candidate. Tuoesday morning the fumera] of Mrs. Agnes May Gagne, 17, wife of Lee {Gagne, and daughter .of Mr. and Mrs. Edmund Tetreault, was heid with ser- ]vuxs at St. Mary's church, Rev. Charles |F. Bedard being celebrant of the high mass of requiem, attended by a large number of relatives and friends. Burial was in St. Mary's cemetery. A purthase agreement has been exe- cuted and deeds recorded transferring 22 acres of land somth of the. city from the property of Edward M. Harris to the city of Putmam, Negotiations for the purchase of this property began many weeks ago, but the purpose for which ‘the city wanted it was mot known to_only a few officials and some oth- ers who keep in touch with such mat- ters. 5 It now develops that the principal ob- jects the city had in mind when it start- jed out to acquire the property was to provide, among other. things, a. site for a city dump. There has been, constant- ly recurring complaints .during the past few years over the odors that have aris- en from the present city dump and.no little difficulty with. firts originating within the refuse deposited there: Only a portion of the newly purchased property will be required for dumping Ypurposes and the land is so distant from the city that it is not likely that any further annoyances will be caused residents because of the dump. Only a small portion of the 22 acres will be required for dumping purposes. | The remainder of the land may be uti- lized as seems best, and suggestion al- ready heard is that a municipal swim- ming pool can easily be developed .there and at _small expense. A stream of water that runs through the property can so be controlled as to create the desired pool. There is also a quantity of good-standing timber on the city’s newly purchased land that is valuable and at some time may be used to ad- vantage. A possibility as the result of the city buying land of the city buying land of the Harris property, is that other land owned by the city on School streefinorth of Providence -street, may be disposed of, as of mo further value tq, Put- nam. This last mentioned propefty has possibilities as a site for some manu- facturing concern. Eugene Cartier, 18, of this city *ighone {of the first to become involved in¥@iffi- culties this season with the gameisar- dens. Cartier, with .another vouth,.was acgosted -Tecently ‘while hunting in the town of Killingly and asked by Deputy Warden F. N. Kies to show his hunt- ing license. Cartier told the official that he had forgotten his license and was told that he might send the number of it-to Mr, Kies and no more fould 'be heard about- the matter. ' Failing ‘to hear' from Cartier within a ‘reasonable time, -Mr. Kies investigated further and found that Cartier had not taken out a license. Cartier thereupon was ordered into the town court of, Killingly ‘and fin- ed, but he was shown leniency and the fine was rebated, he paying only the actual costs., : The newest proposal for regulating Putnam’s constantly . growing automo- bile traffic is to make Livery street a |one-way' thoroughfare. It was stated Tuesday that such a proposal will be ;submitted to the coming meeting of the common council for consideration. Those in favor of the plan feel that it would | relieve .congestion in this business street in' the heart. of the city. On' the other hand, the proposal al- ready is meeting .with opposition and the council is likely to hear considera- ble about the matter before a - decision is reached’ Those opnosed hold .that a one-way street there. would be too much of a restriction and inconvenience for many thst if any. traffic. regulation is_ordered for Livery street it should simpiy be confining parking to one side of the street.
