WESTERLY

The banks and saloons were closed in Westerly election day, but all oth- CT business went forward as usual There was considerable activity i'll and around the town hall, the selected voting place of the First and Second ing laid out so as to include the town hall, for the accommodation of all vot- CTS. The main questions at issue, so far as the great majority of the voters went was not party principles, as nearly all the voting population of Westerly is classed as republicans. and democrats can only be elected through republican treachery. The main issues were to defeat Maurice W. Flynn for state senator, the regular republican nominee, who was fairly nominated by the largest republican caucus ever held in the town, and to place the town in the no license col unln. The republicans who were out and against Flynn. were the same who worked all day, or during the vot- ing period. to get out the no-license vote.
 Ordinarily, a republican nomination is equal to election in Westerly, and if there is 8 fight that fight is at the caucus and not at the pcils as all re- publicans were supposed to stand by the regular nominee of the party. The opposition to MT. Flynn was continu- ed after the caucus, and the caucus bolters were out to get republican vot- es for Tristan D. Batcock. the demo- cratic nominee for state senator As a natural result both sides worked hard to win. while the democrats sim ply voted and went away smiling, while the factions of republicans fought on. The purpose to defeat Flynn and win no-license was the goal and the anti Flynn men worked hard to achieve that end, Flynn and his friends were not idle. The polls opened at g a. m. and closed at p. m.
 The election officials, and party workers at the polls were;
