Democrats See Possible Vic
tory in Caledonia County
REPUBLICANS in REVOLT
Because Of Defeat Of Sheriff Winch o
MoIndoes by Wilbert Worthen.
Democrats Held Convention
Saturday.

st. Johnsbury, Aug s.-The Demo.
Gratis think they have a chance TO elect
sheriff in Caledonia county this fall,
because Of the disalTeetion in the ranks
Of the Republican party through the
nomination Of Wilbert H Worthen Of
st Johnsbury over Sheriff George r.
Winch. The last-named was also pre-.
scented to the Democratic county conven-
ton last Saturday but received only a
few votes, being defeated by Fred G.
Bundy Of ST. Johnsbury in the only fight
Of the convention.
The question Of residence, which has
caused 80 much feeling in the case Of
Mr.. Winch, because was resident is
McIndoes and therefore not resident
Of the shire town, is solved by these
two nominations-bo living IN ST.
Johnsbury. Were this the only element
in the present situation to be considered,
there would be no doubt about Mr..
Worthen's election in September, for it
is generally conceded that Democrats
run far behind the Republicans in this
county. But owing to an element Of
disaifection which has been aroused dur
ing this campaign, evidence is not lack
ing that strict party lines will fail in
the coming campaign.
The Democratic nominee Of Saturdays
convention has already filed in the eoun.
ty clerks Office a certificate signed by
the requisite number Of voters asking
him 10 run az citizens candidate. This
certificate IS largely endorsed BY regn-
lar Republicans voters. This no doubt
eomplicates the situation somewhat and
renders Democratic victory a more
rational possibility, With the Demo.
crats united and the Republicans divid.
ed, the approaching contest will be
worth Watching.
The Democratic convention Saturday
was attended BY 80 delegates, who nom.
mated the following; Senators, Herman

Italian A. C. Defeated Woods
vile on Saturday
IN A PECULIAR CONTEST
weaferi Had the Shade Better Of the
Argument in Pitching over Gil
man-clark and David Were
Strong with the Bat.

Doubtless faster games nave Deeh
played on Rangers field than Saturdays
/. A. C..Woodsville encounter, but the
exciting effect Of this latest contest has
crowded out the memory Of all Others.
A weird collection Of miserable miscues
and hair-raising fielding stunts com.
bined to keep excitement up to the
highest pitch in every round. For elev.
en- long innings, both teams fought tooth
and nail to clineh the victory, and it
was only through free pass, a passed
ball and single that decision in
favor Of the locals was finally reached.
Weaferi was on the mound for the
Italians, and, although accorded poor
support on one or two occasions, when
errors meant runs, he had a shade on his
opponent, VINO was wild and seemed to
tire as the game advanced. Both, how
ever, had their opposing batters guess
ing nearly always in the pinches. To
Gilman belongs the credit Of pitching
an uphill game, and the fact that the
locals won't out by one score detracts
nothing from the record ne established
as one of the best twirlers seen here
this season, pitching in hard luck. Add
ed to this, it is claimed that he received
the bad end of several decisions from
the umpire on balls and strikes. BE that
as it may, the Woodsyile team did not
create a very favorable impression in
protesting some decisions that were OBJ
viously fair, even beyond their own rea-
sonable doubt.
The visitors started the scoring in the
first. After Weaferi had famed two
men, Clarke strobe to the pan and swat
ted the ball into the brook back Of cen
ter field and completed the circuit Of
bases while the felders were digging il
out of the water. Two in the tnird and
three in the fifth were made on a single
and series of fumbles and passed balls.
In the eighth they came to bat with
the score tied at seven apiece. Clark,
the home-run man, again slapped the
ball, tais time for two bases, and scored
when Maherini fumbled Whitney's
gIounder.
In the ninth, with the score still
tied at s, the Woodsyille Differs punched
three hits, one Of them two.bagger,
and pushed two more runs across the
pan, making a total of nine But they
were tied agein Ia tyt last half. A fast
