WHAT THE. sl0Ns FoRETELL
Prophets Sure of Results, 8ut Election
 Count May Bring Big Surprise

Although the interest in politics has been stimulated somewhat in the closing days of the campaign. yet the dawn of eleection day finds little ex- citement in regard to the fight of bal lots, which has been overshadoyed in the press and in public opinion by the fight of bullets across the water. This situation, however, does not neces- sarily imply that the voters are apa- thetio, but rather seems to indicate that the tendency this year, as has been the case for a few years past, has been for each individual to make up his mind in regard to the questions of the day as they arise, so that he does not care to discuss them or hear them discussed as volnbIy as was the case. This was indicated by the slim att tendance at the democraticc and pro- gressive rallies held recently. The republican party had no speakers here, thinking the situation was in their favor, and lack of work and short time of the manufacturing establish ments would be conclusive arguments in their favor.
 Considerable confidence is manifest ed by both parties in the outcome of goday's election, but the prevailing Sentiment seems to be that this is a republican year. Undoubtedly, the local candidates on both state tickets, Comptroller Daniel P. Dunn, Attorney G6Or&S G. HlnIndn TOT aIpOEIIey Bcu- era.L Charles 4. Gates for Sheriff and Frank P. Fenton for senator from this district. will all receive large com plimentary votes in Windhafn, and the feeling in this section is that all stand a good chance of election. The race for United States senator is look ed upon as close, and Governor Bald win is conceded to have a better chance for election than has Bryan F. Mahan for representative.
 - Townwise, while Judge James A. Shea, who has given satisfaction in the office, seems likely to be reelected judge of probate, there is considerable talk of a split ticket in the case of the two representatives. Windham may be called a democratic town of recent years, but the majority is not so large but that the republicans feel confident of electcing at least one representa- tive this year.
 The result will be known, however, when the votes are counted. and not before, and there may be many sur- prises in store for the sure thing takers. Unless indications fail, it will be a long way into the morning be- fore Windham's vote is announced.
 The polls will be open from o'clock in the morning until in the after noon and everyone who has an op- portunity is being urged to vote early.
