.MERIDEN DEMOCRA',
 ELECTED AS MAYOR
All Other City Offices Go to.
 Republicans

Meriden, Dec. 5.--In yesterdays ! election, which was victory for all the republican candidates op the city 1 ticket except Wales Lines de Bussy candidate for mayor, who was defeat. ed by Mayor Henry T. King by 124 votes, SS per cent of the eligible voters of the city took part.
 This is d remarkably high percen- tage, and shows that the people of the city are really interested in civic matters to a greater extent than those of most communities. There were 1892 names on the five voting lists, and l1.722 of them went to the polls. Only 1.G70 refraincd from vot- ing. the total number of votes cast being over 500 more than in the last presidential election.
 An inspection of the official re- turns of the election shows that there was great deal of scratching. The vote for registrars of voters. an office over which there was no con test, was forty less than the total number Of persons who voted. Mayor King received more votes than the democratic registrar and Mir. de Bussy received l29 less than the republican registrar.
 Miss Ruth F. Payne was reelected city clerk without opposition, her vote being 11,671, the largest vote ever given any candidate in the his tcry of the city Of Meriden. Harold l.. Wheatley was elected by small CT majority than any Of the other city officials. his majority being but G6, while more of the other rcpubli- cans elected had ma joritics ranging up to 13o.
 Oscar L.. Uossin, the democratic candidate for treasurer. made the best record of any candidate on his ticket except Mayor King. running 2S ahead or the democratic registrar.
 John l.. Wusterbarth was elected as the first comptroller Of the city by l23 votes over Frank kraemer, his democratic opponent Christopher F. Day had the lowest vote for select man, leaving the board for the next two years composed by Edgard J. Perkins, William Rettenmeyer and James E. Sharkey.
 Mrs. Eleanor Galantc and Mrs. Maude II. Wheeler were elected members Of the board ot education so that the board for the next two years will be composed Of three democrats and two republicans. This will mean that George K. Howe will have to come to Meriden to at tend the meetings to prevent a dead lock in case the board should divide on party lines.
 The board Of alderman will be composed of 12 republicans and eight democrats, the latter electing their candidates in the first and ssgond ward and the former in the third. fourth and fifth.
