 Since our return to town fourteen years ago. all along this period, during our constant Correspondence with The Press we have refrained from even "mention- ing" at election time the names of pro- sPectlVe candidates for our legislature. we now break our record for various req sons, chiefly for this one: What we have briefly to say simply reflects the oft re- peated sentiment of 8 large majority of the republican voters of this town. It is somewhat known that this is the strong est republican town in the state, nearly three to one, and that nominations in that pafty's caucus are equivalent to election although that miserable thing, a split Clcket, has been at rare intervals success fully in the f1eld-notably the ono engi- neered by the last town candidate for senator, whereby democratic represent atlve was elected, and the former subse- quently defeated for the former office. Now the time for the republican caucus TOT the nomination of representatives, grows apaoe. Rain or shine, let every rep~0IScG~ voter turn out, use voice and | lnnuence in the deliberations, and then | TOT ever thereafter hold your peace, walk | ing up Ike little men to the polls on cleo | non day and voting your party ticket | straight. That's the way. If YOU stay nome from this caucus don't afterwards | twit about Moose Meadow, Village Hill, | Depot, South Willington and Hill coterips packing the meeting. If there is any 'unnE business going on, thus preventing 1reo, spontaneous vote, spot it instanter, ma after, should corrupt practices seem ;roWned with success, be prepared to keep nit" such nefarious procedure. Have me courage of your convictions, fear no nan, church or corporation, whether you lave some little office, or commodity to 'ell, in the scales or not, Then you won't lave to blow, nor oroak, nor threaten till mother election day, and so on and on. jOme prepared with ballots of your own. lot bl1ndly, carelessly or in intimidation ecelVe and vote slated ballots handed you. we have heard these names "mentioned,' ,' here are no doubt others, as candidates or representatives this year, not given lere In arbitrary or meritorious order, 4lnd you: F, Juul, l., Johnson, G. B. Marble, w. H. Hall, A. H. Eldridge, F. C. IL. 3roWn, w. F. Carroll, T. c. Denman. from these and from other and unmen- toned names, probably as good, take our pick, gentlemen. If you take our tumble advice, fellow citizens, as to your voice and influence in this com ng caucus, you may have a wholesome influence over the future administration # public affairs in this town. Sometimes mes influence in town is over estimated, no then, sometimes, it's under estimated, Ou know.
