| BANGOR. M. September SIN Bangor
to-day the lightest vote for years was poiled
and there was great scratching OF tickets.
Men who have been in politics Tor years
say they have never known anything like
the manner in which the tickets were cut.
The result in the city is greatly In doubt
and the Republicans are not clal ing the
city by over 200 at the outside. The pros
pect is good for the election of at least one
Democratic representative, but nothing
definite can be told until the entire: vote Is
counted. Extreme quiet characterizes the
election proceedings.
