The Town Mccting---Ii WINS Surprise
Party All Around vermont.
It is doubtful whether the Republicans of our
town were any more surprised at the result of
Tuesdays election than the Democrats themselves
were, II being real surprise party all around
The most sanguine Of the Democrats had not
even limited that it was possible tu elect 70 board
OF Justices as well rs the representative II was
the first time In the history Of the Republican
party That the Democrats had carried the justice,
ticket ~ our town, aud three times only hav, they
had the representative, viz Or Daniel CnmI.
bell, G.. H. Webb and Chas Smith the latter ten
years ago The Republican majority ia the TOWN
has usually been from $50 tu 941 the latter H,tr,.
lting the highest and reached in the election of

caucus held last saturday an Informal ballot was
taken, resulting n total votes east g. of wbpl,

two FOR any one candidate. Upon this result be-
! ing announced a motion was made tp make the
! nomination OF Mr. OsguOd unanimous. and ID was
! carried without dissenting voice ON Monday
the story That the caucus was packed hy some

70 tell the organization or In what interest il was

OF tue whole Democratic ticket Of Justices being
