 NESpos several of his tail neathers, | otherwise battered and still somewhat VroeHy, the republican rooster struggled 10 hjs feet Wednesday morning and af- ter surveying this section of the county md general results in the state gave vent to a lusty crow of victory. He had been through a hard battle on Tuesday uad made hereabouts to feel that the democratic birds have become harder than ever to conquer, but he had clean d up on general results and felt enti- tied to be elated over the general vlc- tory of the party in Connecticut.
 As has been indicated several times In this column during the past few weeks, the democrats were especlally Active this fall and their labors showed results in Tuesdays voting. Here Ill Kiifingly they gave the republicans Scare on the vote for representatives and the republican representatives-elect won out ny d marrow hfsrgn as com pard to the usual liberal majoritles given candidates of their party. In the ease of state senator, the democratic candidate went out of his home town Bf KiIlingly with a majority. The chlef desertion from republican ranks occur red in the second and third districts ot the town, the vote shows. Tuesdays results will stir the republican organiza- lion to great activity in building of it's Vtrength in the next two years
 Down in Plainheld, the rejuvenated democratic party swept the board with rnaiorfties for all it's candidates and will send two representatives to the legislature. In Brooklyn and in Sterl- ing. towns with only one representa- tive, the democrats elected their candi- dates. In Canterbury two republican representatives were also elected as re- presentatives
 The republicans went out of Wind- ham county with majority for tnelr state ticket, elected their candidate for sherfff and two state senators and a majority of their representatives for the legislature. They also gave majorittes for their candidates for United States senator and congressman, but they were not the old-time party majorities In Windham county and there were times Tuesday evening when party leaders were really doubtful as to what the fi- nal returns really would show in one town or another. Putnam is credited with the strongest republican showing in this section. Naturally the democrats are gleeful over their victories Tn towns hereabouts and their general strong showing in thu county.
 Which party suffered most by the fsilure of many hundreds of Windham county voters to go to the polls is mere matter of conjecture. At least 5OC did not vote in the town of Killingly and there were probably three times that number in the IS towns of the county that stayed away from the poll ing places
 Csunky and Federal Game Warden Harry E, Battey called attention or Wednesday to the fact that the seasor for shooting white or snow-shoe rabbit: closes on November 24 the same dat as brings the close of the season fol Ihooting the ordinary grayish-browI rabbit This is not understood by man! that hold hunting licenses, WardeI Battey says, and he is desirous that. al should be notified in due time to pre- vent unintended violations of the law White rabbit hunting is late fall past time in which many indulge in terri tory hereabouts, especially in the east ern section of the town.
