Mr.. Smith Was High Nan

1t has been the custom of the indie
pendent-Reporter for many years to
furnish the Somerset County vote in
tabular form. In all our experience
we have never had so wide a varia-
ton between the vote cast for various
candidates. This was a unique fea-
'ture of an election which had in il
many unusual elements. 1t so hap
pened that Senator Clyde II. Smith
had the largest total vote both in his
home town and throughout the coun-
ty. The total in Skowhegan was
2007 and for the county, 1889. Close
ly following him came Standardized
Holley with 1918 votes in the county.
Mr.. Holley ran ahead of the general
ticket in his home town. Arson, as in
fact he did in practically every yot-
ing precinct. 1t is also interesting
to note that Notwithstanding the fact
that Pattangall had a small majority
in Skowhegan, the town was carried
for John ". Healy, candidate for
sheriff.
The above comment of course dis
regards the vote of 1929 for c. O..
Small. Judge of Probate. as this gen
tleman, appeared on both Democratic
and Republlean tickets, combined the
total vote of both parties.
The, vote of 1857 for Bin W. Page.
candidate for Representative To the
Legislature for Skowhegan. is also
very interesting. 1t was by all means
the largest total ever cast for a can
didate for this office, and in the voting
district affected, was exceeded only
by that of Senator Smith.
Another interesting vote was that
of Henry Crowell. Republican can
didate for County Commissioner, who
had a total of 1914. slightly exceed
ing Mr.. Holley. and second only TO
Mr.. Smith.
