YESTERDAYS ELECTIONS.

Elections we're held in wenty one cities
OF Massachusetts yesterday In Fall
River DR.. Coughiln Was re- elected Mayor
bya majority OF e0s. The question Of
license was the all absorbing issue ana II
was fought vigorously in every one Of Inc
cities, with the result that only eight
voted Ia favor Of il while thirteen vVt,d
for no license.
one of the most surprising votes on this
question was cast In Fall River. Last year
mere was majority OF 800 In lsvoc OF
license while this year there was uaIori-
~ q ,7j5 recorded against II. Tho ii gures
yesterday were Se0l I'm favor Of iccnsc
ami 1863 against II. Taunton also Ncit
az ,inst license for the FIRST time III d good
many years.
This revulsion OF feeling has in great
measure been brought about by .bc
met node eul ployed by the holesale liquor
men in forming combinations Win "a
certain clique u the Aldermen and deal
ing ne licenses out as they desired. Tho
"com binstion" in Fall River spent
d large amount OF money for election par.
poses yesterday.
The Ave Republican Aldermen, VINO,
with one Democrat, went into the com
binstion last year will now have some.
tning else 10 attend TO besides devising
means 10 enrich themselves and their
friends by awards OF licenses. II is prob
able now thst some effective and
ard necessary public work may receive
their undivided attention.
