 Interest in Coming Election.
 More interest is being manifest ed in the coming town election which takes place on next Monday than has been shown in any cleo ton here in recent years. The re- publican party are running the same list of candidates as have been in rule for a number of years, the town of Plymouth until the past year being republican stronghold. Interest is high at the present time due to the fact that the democratic party here has shown much life during the past two years and have cut down the big republican majority with the result that on the school commit tee alone during the past three years the democrats have been able to get control of the board. At the state election. last fall. the democrats for the first time in the history of the town, gave Gov Cross a majority of 100 votes and at the same time elected two democratic representatives, the only town in Ltchfield county which succeeded in doing such a thing. "
 It is thought that the democra- tic ticket which Is being presented to the voters on next Monday is the strongest ticket to ever be presented to them with Oscar Hasse, prominent resident and gen. eral manager of the Terryville Coal and Wood company being a candidate for first selectman. Mir Hasse is well-known throughout the town and is widely known. Frank Mahoney. well known paint CT of this place Is e candidate for town treasurer while on the school committee, Rev Harry Perkins of
