Can he be beaten?
At o'clock this evening, on care
9ul consideration of all the visible cir
Eumstances it looks as though Mr..
Garrity would be defeated, and as if
Ne would carry with him the defeat Of
Abe entire ticket.
Nevertheless, it must be conceded
that large proportion of the German
vote will be cast for Mr. Harrity-the
sarger proportion, and perhaps two
Thirds of the French vote. The latter
Element of the population are some 90
}trong.
Gty and his supporters is the socialist
fote They cannot diagnose it to
beir satisfaction; nor can anybody
Use, for the matter of that.
The SpY'S original calculation That
1he vote for the socialist candidate for
flectman will be twice the attendance
b the caucus. is not considered la ge
Enough, tonight. The average estimate
flaCes this vote at between 100 and l25
lallots for selectman.
= If this socialist vote should reach $50,
Gat in itself would defeat Mr.. HarIi-

A matter that has much bearing on
pe situation is the undoubted breach
between F. II. Morrison and Joseph E.
Harrity. All reports thar this chasm
Aas been bridged, are erroneous.
T. II. Morrison is, of course, not ac-
lively employed against the candidates
IN the democratic ticket. Mr.. Harri-
E's friends have, however. put him
INTO d position where it has been inn
possible for him TO bring the same
Energy and fighting power to the cause
that he brought last spring, when the
democrats gained a victory that lifted
Ghe skylights off. Unless the political
prophets are wrong, the passiveness of
Mir. Morrison will have a result more
disastrous than the active opposition of
some men who are counted strong in
Clinton politics.
Patrick F. Conner, the democratic
candidate for town treasurer, has a
chance not given to some of the candi-
dates on his ticket. The socialists
have not nominated a candidate for
treasurer. Nor is there a socialist can
didate for commissioner, which makes
an additional chance for Henry Rich
ter.
Here are the estimates of the town
chairmen of the several town commit
tees:
S. Ives Wallace, republican - All
elections in Clinton are in doubt until
the votes are counted The figures of
the town committee show clear and
conclusive majority for William Rod
ger for selectman of 100 votes
David l. Walsh, democrat - (Esti-
mates given after consultation with the
town committee.) Mr. Harrity will win
on majority reduced from last year.
/ am not prepared to give any figures. 3"

cast at least 300 votes; we cannot cast

There was a mass meeting of Ger

noon Frederick Baer acted as chair
man and John SChoerner as secretary.
Herman ECkenstein. Selectman Henry
Richter Casper Walls, Fred Baer and
Charles Fl Gentsch addressed the
meeting First of all, the majority of
the speakers and voters present were
anxious to see license prevail; after
that they were for the most part for
Joseph e. Harrity.
John F. O'Maley, the democratic can
didate for road commissioner, is MAX

upon his pledge to have the pay of town
laborers raised TO 20 cents an hour.

town committee, and claimed by the
republican town committee. that Chas
