Too bad that the republican candidate
for Judge of probate was largely made
scapegoat of, on account of locality and
that "Hill" article In The Press some
time ago.
Said an elector from the north part of
the town, pointing to the Baptist meeting
house, II hear that they're going to give
up that nice church and build one In Its
stead at South Wilmington"
No, "you can't prod Josephine too far"
1t seems that it pays for bank official
not to be too sullen, discourteous and I'M
accommodating, as witness the handsome
vote for Newcomb, democratic candidate
for Senator.
Scratching and pasting was abnormal /;
only ~ straight republican tickets.
After all, the place to kick was at that
senatorial caucus In Stafford Springs.
1t was on every mans tongue, "What
fine lunch the ladies served-oysters,
baked beans and other things. Why was
not the project thought of before ?"
Some excellent snap shots were taken
by Mrs. Preston with one of Harvey &
Lewis, Hartford, Eastman kodaks =
groups, and one of Town Father w. d.
Ruby, standing alone.
We hope our young friend, Korper's,
political career may be as fair as the ideal
day of his election.
A few made themselves conspicuous by
their absence for that excellent free lunch.
