Special Dispatch to IN. c.ll

ROSLYN, L. l., Aug 1-"Are you go
ing to school meeting tomorrow. and are
you going to vote for DIR. Bogart or Mrs.
Mackay?" was being asked OF every
voter in the school district of Roslyn
to-day. On every street, in every coun-
try store. in& the village postoff1ce and
the hotels of Roslyn, the school election
TO be held tomorrow was the only topic
of conversation. and its result is being
looked forward to with more interest
among the taxpayers than even an cleo
tion which has at stake the choice of
President. Scores of notices have passed
through the mails, addressed to all resi-
dents of Roslyn, stating that a school
election to select two trustees Will be
held on Wednesday. August 2. in the
Roslyn schoolhouse, between noon and 4
o clock.
The candidates are only, two in num-
1ber-Mrs. Clarences II. NIackay, who has
been the village benefactor7 of Roslyn,
and Dr. Bogart. The physician is some
what adverse to running, owing TO Ine
popularity of Mrs. Mackay. but his
have prevailed upon him ito do
so. Still. even now. there is likelihood
that ne. will withdraw at the last mo-
fnent.s
Mrs: Mackay has a following in Ros-
lyn including not only the well-to-do.
= ut the poorer classes of the village. Her
many. kindly acts during the last three
years have won the hearts of ALL
. The men,. women and children who
favor: the election of Mrs. Mackay have
left:no stone iIpturned in their efforts to
give to. her the largest majority ever OBJ
taifled by any trustee in the history of
the village. Her enthusiastic followers
will have carriages to carry voters 10
the polls. 5.
