THE ELECTIONS.
Continued from page ~

by regular pandenoniuHi III ehc
ing. 1t has been some time Since .he
Republicans have had greater VIC
tory to celebrate and it wasn't so very
long ago that they had to watcn tha'
unusual and very strange event III the
state of Maine--a Democratic ceiepra-
tion of 4 victory. So when the result
was definitely known everything sud-
denly broke loose.
There was so much cutting and mix
ing of the votes that it took an unusu-
alIy long time to count them. The last
official return did not get to City Clerk
Clair's office until about $50. The f1rst
authentic news came in the Mails spec
ial edition which got onto the street
about 80. Then the celebration began
in earnest. The street was thronged
with people all talking about the vic
tory The Democrats were pretty blue
but still there was lots of fight left In
'em and they were out with the rest
if they didn't blow any horns or do any
shouting.
About 100 boys ranging from a small
sized grasshopper to a half-groWn man
got possession of horns and forming IN
line marched back and forth, making
noise enough to satisfy even them
selves. But the best part of 1t all was
in the Republican corners where the
faithful gathered to talk it all over.
Chairman Getchell of the city commit
tee came in for a lions share of the
honor. 1t was his maiden fight as
chairman and his friends and party did
not forget it. The workers told how
they did 'em, while those who simply
voted applauded. 1t was a good old
fashioned Republican jollification and
no mistake.
