Citizens Ticket in the Field

Late Thursday evening, at nearly
the last moment possible for such ac-
ton, a citizens ticket was filed with
George H. Willis, city clerk. The list
of names submitted is as follows:
mayor, Nathan H. Bridges; aldermen
at large, Fred w. Austin and Ernest
S. Currier, street commissioner,
Samuel Cottle; aldermen, ward one,
Charles r. Gatchell; ward two, Will
liam f. Snow; ward three, Charles
r. Thurber; ward four, Arthur r.
Moore, ward five, Earle S. Sheldon.
Along the street it was being said
that some names on this ticket might
split the regular Republican vote,
and that it at least added an element
of uncertainty to what had been re-
garded before as a formal cut-and-
dried election. Nathan H. Bridges,
who heads this ticket, has been
prominent in the affairs of the DEM
ocratic party of the city.
