THE VOTE ON PROHIBITION

The Saloon League has been
quick to tell the nation that the vic
tory of Hoover was an outstanding
victory for prohibition. The vote
clearly proves that three feurths or
four-fifths of the country is dry,
according to the estimate of the
league.
The league. of course, is only part
ly right. If the Hoover victory de-
notes victory for prohibition it was
only in prohibition territory, such
as Texas. We are willing to admit
that Smiths vet stand had some
thing to do with his defeat in the
Lone Star State, or such other states
that have the same complex.
The victory of Hoover in Connect

Earded as victory for prohibition In

Observations
On The Weather

Washington. Nov. s.-Rain this
afternoon; generally fair and
colder in south portions; fresh
northeast winds changing to north
and northwest and diminishing to-
night.
Forecast for Eastern New York:
Fair tonight and Friday; colder to-
night and on the coast Friday:
fresh north or northwest winds.
Conditions: The low pressure
trough noted yesterday morning
over the plains states moved rapid
ly eastward to the Atlantic states
and centers this morning over south
central New York state and north
ern Pennsylvania. 1t has produced
rains quite generally from the
plains states eastward to the Allan
tic coast. A long ridge of high
pressure overspreads the plains
states. 1t is attended by clearing
skies eastward to the Ohio valley
and temperatures are lower over
the plains states and Mississippi
valley but are not severe in any
district.
Conditions favor for this vicinity
rain followed by fair and colder
weather.

ROOSEVELT AND WALSH

The two most important Demo-
cratic victories in the campaign were
those of Franklin d. Roosevelt,
elected governor of New York, and
Senator David l. Walsh. reelected
senator in Massachusetts.
The Roosevelt victory was particu-
larry noteworthy considering that he
was sought to be the gubernatorial
candidate in order to strengthen
Smith and make it more likely for
the latter to carry the state. Instead,
Smith failed to carry the state while
Roosevelt did. Naturally this feat is
looked upon by the entire Demo-
cratic party with an eye toward 1882.
This should not prevent Roosevelt,
however, from giving the Empire
state the best that is in HIM.
Senator Walsh of Massachusetts
ran far ahead of bis ticket, again
proving TO the East that he is the
most remarkable vote getter in New
England. In no former campaign
was he subjected to more bitter at
lacks by Republican newspapers, bu,
these, instead of harming Walsh.

WITHDRAWING GATE TENDERS

The canal branch" of the New
Haven railroad running through
Plainville, where it crosses the
Waterbury branch line, is evidently
running into the discard. Almost all
trains have been removed" from it,
runs the official announcement; and
only few short freights every day
now keep the rails from becoming
rusty. What was once a prosper
Gus line" as those who live along it
may at odd moments reflect, has
descended to a mere shadow of it's
former importance. And with this
descent into the depths of desuetude
has come a ruling by the Public
Service Commission that gate tend
ers are no longer necessary at certain
crossings OF this branch line through
Plainville.
The decision OF the r. u. C., how
ever. specifies rather irregular pro-
ceedlng. at one OF the Plainville
crossings-thst at West Main street

the decision. but they are to be

An OUTSTANDING NON-VOTER

After posing as an instructor of the
public and telling them how to vote
in order to keep prosperity prosper
ing and to insure the continued sale
of flivyers, Henry Ford himself fail
ed to take the trouble to go to the
polls and do his duty. He did not
practice what he preached. In the
eyes of the country he cannot help
going down as political Stacker.
Men like Ford, who are so frequent
ly heard from as would be mentors
of the human race, should by all
means take care that they do what
they tell others to do. After coming
out for Hoover with clarion
language, this outstanding American
didn't even have enough interest in
the campaign to vote for him.
