Winsted, along with several towns, is considering the matter of a new charter. The Citizen of that town objects to terms of four years for of ficials, and also says that the recall is a clumsy way of meeting the weak points of a long term. It holds also that a two-year term is sufficiently long and that then the voters have chance to make their wishes known The Citizen is entirely right. Bristol made sad mistake when 1t adopted the indefinite term, which is lot worse than the four-year scheme. Two years is long enough tenure Of office for any city official. If he makes good the voters will keep him. If they are dissatisfied they will let him know it-and it is the interest of the com munity, not the office holder, that is to be considered.-Bristol Press.

New Hampshire will do well if, while dedicating monument to for mer President Franklin Pierce, she buries forever the strong resentment which some of her people have cher ished for his frankly expressed sym pathy with the South immediately be- fore the Civil war. The fact that an old feud, which this country has tried its best to kill and forget has been New Hampshire's pricipal excuse for re- fusing all these years to appropriately honor the only son of that state to gain the presidency, should form a principal regret in connection with to- days ceremonies.-Iarfor Times

THIEVES GET $3.50 IN RAID
ON NEW CARLISLE SALOON
Tattered Hat and Descriptions OF Two
Suspicious Characters Only
CIews to Robbery.

Robbers broke into the saloon of
Albert Schultz at New Carlisle some
time after / o'clock Tuesday morn
ing and made clean getaway with
$50.
Two or more men broke the glass
in the front door of the saloon and
with the aid of a screw driver and
other tools opened the safe and along
with some very valuable papers stole
$50 in bills. The cash register was
smashed and some small change was
taken. At about o'clock Tuesday
morning a party of New Carlisle men
saw two men walking down the alley
in back of the saloon. Outside Of this
clew the only one the authorities have
to work on is a tattered hat found by
Schultz in front of the saloon. The
LapOrte authorities were notified of
the robbery and with the aid of the
New Carlisle officers are taking steps
to arrest the thieves.
The South Shore interUrban station
at New Carlisle was broken into and
90 pennies were taken with an I'M
certain number of tickets for both in
terurbans that connect with New Car
Isle. The robbers at the station are
thought to be the same ones that
broke in the saloon.

IDEAL ELECTION DAY;
HEAVY VOTE IS POLLED
Dodge Company Closes Down
for Day-Many Automobiles
Pressed Into ServiCe-LoCaI
Candidates All Confident.

Ideal weather ushered in election
DAY, notwithstanding the electric
storm around 3 o'clock in the morn
ing. Up till noon an exceptionally
heavy vote had been cast in all the
voting places. The local candidates
were early astir attending to their in
terests, and all available automobiles
were pressed into service. At 11:I5
O'Clock 165 votes had been cast in the
second precinct of the third ward.
while over a hundred had been reg
istered at the first precinct OF the
same ward. Fully 140 had also been
cast in the first precinct, first ward.
OF course all the candidates express
ed themselves as being confident over
the results, and all of them were in
the best of humor.
The Dodge Co. closed down for the
entire day in order 10 give its thous-
and voters an opportunity of going to
the polls
Several bets on the election were
made during the day all at even
money.
Quite a number of votes were said
to be lost to the different candidates
through the inability of voters TO I'M
derstand the voting machine. This
was particularly the case with those
who were voting for the first time
and who had not taken pains to study
the matter.
The city was exceptionally quiet
during the forenoon with the excep-
ton of in the vicinity OF the polling
places, where excited groups of en-
bryo Statesmen" discussed with ami
nation the probable outcome of to-
days political battle.
The following are the figures given
out at the polls at the noon hour,
showing that 81 per cent of Misha-
waka's vote was cast in the morning:
First ward: First precinct, 143; sec
ond precinct, 140.
Second ward: 139.
Third ward: First precinct, 101;
second precinct, 165.
Fourth ward: First precinct, 7S;
second precinct, 121.
Fifth ward: 16S.
