~ Special Correspondent
SPOTSWOOD, Nov. with the
majorities cut in half that the Demo-
Gratis usually have at elections of the
Importance Of Tuesdays contest
Spotswood went in the doubtful
column as a result of the vote cast.
There was one local fight and that
conferred about the election OF two
councilmen. Opposed to William JOl-
ly, Sr., and Charles Culver were two
ex-service men, David II. Van Buren,
and Herman Latteau, who ran on the
Soldier ticket" This contest was
one of the most exciting of local po-
litical history and the service men
were returned winners by small ma
jorities. jolly and Culver had served
"a term as councilmen and were out
to succeed themselves. Bugbee was
given a good vote for the one-sided
majority usually cast here and this
was due to strong opposition put up
by the dry" element through Demo-
Gratis who cas- their lot with Bugbee
on the issue that was put before the
voters.
Van Buren, served in the service in
France and was attached to the Aero
Squadron 467 and saw hard service
overseas. His popularity carried
him a favorite to the polls. Latteau
served in the Quartermasters corps
and was promoted to the Lieutenacy
owing to his skilled mechanical know
ledge hat was of much assistance to
the department where he was located.
He was one of four brothers who serv-
ed their country and this was more
noteworthy owing to the fact that his
parents were German.
The Soldier candidates were not
put before the voters at the primary
but their names We're written in the
ballots at the last moment and their
showing was all the more remarkable.
The other contests follow: Cover
nor, Edwards. 70; Bugbee. SO; As
sembly. Appleby, 55; DeVoe. 90; Ly-
ons, 43. County Clerk, Cannon, IS;
Hilker, As. Freeholders, Haight, AZ;

of as he is a native son" and the son
