ELECTION CROWD
ENJOYS RETURNS
OF CALIFORNIAN
Rain Does Not 'mpen
Enthusiasm of Spec,,. s
On Main Street

The Democratic tears that were
shed Tuesday night from the Heavens
over the Republican clean sweep at
the polls did not disturb the ardor of
a large crowd of enthusiasts who
gathered on Main Street opposite the
Berry Ball Dry Goods store and en-
joyed the election return as thrown
on the screen by the Caledonan-Re-
cord. The dIiZzle and occasional
downpour did not make it an ideal
night to stand in the open but there
was sufficient interest in the election
to keep q large crowd lined along the
sidewalks from 7.30 to nearly mid
night.
"Regular big city STUFF, declared
Or. John Ticrncy as he watched the
returns thrown on the screen. This
was the comment Of nearly everyone
"ho watched the sides. The crowds
IN Times Square and Park Row, New
York, or in Newspaper Row, Boston,
lid not have a finer display Of cleo
ion returns.
The careful work and excellent
equipment Of A. S. Haskns, the well
'noWn st. Johnsburv optician, con
tributcd greatly to the success Of The
election display He used one Cf his
finest Stereopticons and was ably as
sisted in the preparation Of the slides
nv Fred Clifford, president Of the
Vermont Optical company through
whose courtesy the Caledonian-Re-
cord was able to use so advantageous
i location for its Republican sweep.
The returns told in rapid succession
Of the great Republican sweep. As
early at $50 o'clock the indications
from Massachusetts showed that the
Bay State was giving a tremendous
Republican vote. Then followed re-
Turns from Mairc, whore clean
sweep was made, and the early vote
in New York showed the trend to a
Republican landslide.
The Caledonian- Record gave an
early announcement of the great Re
publican sweep in Northeastern Ner-
mont. One of the first slides told
representative and this was followed
by reports of the PROGRESS of the
Campbell Richardson vote. When
the tabulating was completed in St.
JohnsbulY Of the town vote the Cal
edon!an had Caledonia county com
plete and made quick announce
mo0t Of the total vote.
Various Organizations enjoyed the
exclusive Associated Press returns as
brought into Northeastern Vermont

COOLIDGE PLEASED
OVER G. 0. P. SWEEP

BOSTON, Nov. 3-Shortly after
Gov, Coolidge reached the state house
this morning he expressed his paltic-
ular qualification with the working
majority that now seems assured for
our party in the Senate" 81 und =
stand" the governor said chat the
vice president is charged with the
responsibility of carrying out the
will of the senate, 1t will be agree
able to act in conformity with auth
GRITTY created by my own party"
Governor Coolidge mentioned that
he would not be able to give a great
deal OF thought to his new duties un-
Til after January /, when his term as
governor expires He said he had
not made any plans for the period
between the first of the year and
March 4th, Referring to his tele-
phone conversation with Senator
Harding last night the governor said
Senator Harding had express d Il
desire to confer with him and that
he held himself subject to the call of
the prcsident-elect.
The Caledonian-record. [volume] (St. Johnsbury, Vt.) 1920-current, 1920-11-03

The election brought out a tremen-
dous vote in every city and town
The vote was nearly doubled
over past elections in ev,ry
instance by the advent Of women
voters, They showed a great inter
est not only in getting to the polls
early and voting, but also in follow
ing the returns in all the contests.
Caledonia county gave handsome
majority to James B. Campbell, Re
publican, in the spirited contest for
states attorney. He was elected ever
Samuel Richardson, Democrat, by
1868. This is a fine endorsement of
the administration Of Attorney Camp
bell and the Utility of the Demo
Gratis in running a candidate as an
independent in an effort to bofog the
voters.
In the contest for County Senator
William p. Russell Of kiIby and
Frank T. Taylor Of Hardwick, Re
publicans, won by handsome majorit-
les.
1t was evident that the Republi-
cans voted the straight ticket to a
very large extent and there were few
split ballots in many towns.
In the vote for president the total
for Caledonia county was Harding
1864, Cox 1928.
The ballot for town representative
was turned in promptly at 800 O clock
and the vote in the next two hours
was very light. 1t took an hour and
Is minutes to count The ballot and the
result proved to be a sweeping victory
