est institution. a town meeting. origina-
Ting in 1888 was observed yesterday in
q majority of the towns of the state.
Politics played but small part in the
elections as there were few contests on
party lines. Nearly all the towns held
citizens caucuses last week. and In those
communities where there we're such,
opposing candidates ran on nomination
papers. IN the larger towns where
the business was voluminous an ad-
tournment was taken after the election
piete the annual budget Of appropria-
tions. Few communities enlarged their
appropriations. ourtailment being the
rule.
Interest centered in the vote on the
license question, and the no-license
organization made a vigorous campaign.
In some cases with success. Amesbury
which voted for no license by close
margin In 1896. returned to the no License
column. and Shelburn followed suit,
while the no license majority in Athol
was considerably Increased. On the
other hand Scituate voted for license
for the first time in many years. and in
Hudson the vote Cor license was much
larger than last year. In Ashland the
vote was tie and the town goes dry this
year, while in Brewster. on the cape,
not a voter recorded himself in favor
of the sale of intoxicating liquors. Bel
chertown also went over 10 the no license
column after voting the other way for
two years. Towns not holding their
meetings yesterday will elect their
officers during the present month.
