The Republican candidate elected by a vote
more than double that given TO Republican candi-
dates in previous years. Mr.. Lessler's vote was
1911. while that of Belmont 1888. In spite
of the fact that the Democrats were fighting among
themselves especial praise accorded Repre-
sentative Lessler for the that he had
triumphed in district in which Tammany until

whereas his Republican antagonist James R.

The most picturesque figure in the campaign
that of Fritz Lindinger, who started out to wrest
the election from both Lessler and Belmont. In
speaking of the Congress fight at its inception, he
said

lengthy raglan which caused him to be
the cynosure Of all eyes in the Arch

first time he had ever worn a dress
suit, and as he walked into the car his
painful embarrassment was notice
able. Many smiles fitted across the
passengers features, and the young
fellow noticed each one and blushei
deeply.
But more trouble was in store. At
Seventeenth street two Ted-faced ser
want girls boarded the car. They
crowded into seat and began to talk
volubly.

gaze rested on the conspicuous young
