QUIET ELECTION.
LITTLE INTEREST SHOWN IN VOTING
OR RESULTS.

Addison County Gives Her Usual Repub-
lican Maiority-Middleb Voters stay
at Home-state Majority for stickney
About 81. 900.
About half the voters of the town of
Middlebury apparently did not consider
it incumbent upon them to assist in the
encouragement or depression Of the
voters Of the United States at large.
They stayed away from the polls. The
check list does not contain the names of
the towns entire voting population, but
of the SIS odd on the list. only ISL cast
their ballots. Election day was abs o.
lutely duh in Middle bury. On former
occasions the fight for representative of
the town has stirred things up; but this
year the name of J f. Buttolph was the
only one on the Republican ticket and
that party's voters didn't think It neces-
sary to keep an eye-and the votes-on
the Democrats to prevent their defeating
Mr.. Buttolph. Even the knowledge that
the whole country was watching Yer
mont made no difference. Two years
ago the town cast G27 votes out of so on
the check list, and that was an of
year. too.
The day was an ideal one for election :;
rather warm, perhaps, bat that ought to
have served as an excuse for the farmers
to knock off and come in to vote. AL
though the liquor issue has been para
mount" in local politics this year. it
was noticeable that there was no liquor
flowing, as was the case two years ago.
The result in Middlebury was as fol-
lows:
