Next Tuesday, Nov. 2, is election 
day. It is the duty of every voter to get 
out to the polls and cast his ballot. No 
adequate reason has been advanced for a 
change in the conduct of affairs at the 
State House. The administration has 
been wise, efficient and ecomonical. It 
should be continued. The able work of 
Gov. Eben S. Draper, Lieutenant-Gov- 
ernor Louis A. Frothingham, and all 
their associates on the State ticket, in 
connection with that of our Legislature, 
certainly deserves hearty commendation 
and loyal support. 
The State tax has been reduced by 
$1,000,000 from the amount assessed in 
1908; the great railroad systems have 
been brought under more direct super- 
vision and control of the Common- 
wealth; the city of Boston has been 
given a much needed amended charter; 
and our public educational system has 
been reorganized and improved. This, 
\in part, is the Republican record for the 
past year. 
The Republican voter who has truly 
at heart the interest of his party and the 
-. G. E. WILLMONTON .... 
Attorney and Counsellor-at-Law 
Editor and Proprietor. 
Town of Manchester, and those in- 
terests should be identical, will not only 
see to it that he votes himself on “Tues- 
day next, but so far as lies within his 
power, will see that every Republican al- 
so casts his vote at the polls. 
At an election such as occurs this year, 
when the larger affairs of immediate 
National importance are not before the 
people for decision, interest is likely to 
wane or at best to be rather under that of 
the average year. 
There are many reasons why this in- 
terest should not wane and that the vote 
should be kept at its full strength. Many 
of them are general in their nature al- 
though no less important on that account. 
One of them is very specific and of great 
local importance, as it directly affects the 
influence of the Town of Manchester in 
the various conventions of the district 
in which the town is placed. It is upon 
the total vote cast for the head of the 
ticket that the number of delegates to the 
several converyions accredited to the 
‘Town are determined. 
Upon the strength of this delegation 
depends the ‘strength and influence of 
Manchester in securing for her interests 
and affairs the respect and consideration 
to which they are entitled, for at the pri- 
maries and conventions, a great many 
matters are, under the present laws, prac- 
tically settled. 
Last year by virtue of the large vote 
cast the Town gained on its representa- 
tion on every delegation and thus in- 
creased its strength and _ influence. 
These delegations should be maintained 
and if possible increased; but in any 
event they should be preserved. 
To do this Republican voters must 
come to-the polls and urge all others to 
do likewise, remembering that in casting 
their vote they not only do their part in 
deciding the immediate issues at question, 
but also indirectly determine whether 
their Town shall or shall not maintain its 
standing and importance in the shaping 
of the principles and issues to come_be- 
fore the voters in future elections and the 
preservation of the immediate interests of 
the Town. 
It must not be overlooked that the 
candidate on the Republican ticket to 
Willmonton’s Agency 
SCHOOL AND UNION STS, MANCHESTER QLD SOUTH BLDG. BOSTON 
represent this district in the General 
Court this year is a Manchester man,— 
Raymond C. Allen. It is therefore a 
duty of every voter in the town to get out — 
and help elect our man with the largest 
possible vote. Mr. Allen is a young 
man. He hasa college education and 
for the last ten years he has conducted a 
successful business in Manchester. He 
has been moderator in the Town Meet- 
ings for the last four or five years and 
has served the town in various capacities. 
He iseminently fitted to represent the 
town in the Legislature, and it is to be 
hoped that the town will give to him the 
full strength of its vote, so that with the 
other sections of the district in his favor 
he will be elected with an overwhelming 
majority. 
THE manufacturers of rubber boots 
and shoes have advanced their prices a 
second time since last spring. Shoe 
dealers buy rubber goods at catalogue 
prices, less discounts, and on the first of 
May a five per cent. discount was re- 
moved, and last month another five was — 
taken off, thus rubbers costthe dealer 
more than last year, though not so much 
as would be justified on account of the — 
wonderful advance in cost of raw rubber. — 
On March Ist, crude rubber cost $1.20 
per pound: today it costs $2.14. The — 
increase in prices by the manufacturers _ 
will necessitate an advance by the retail 
dealers of from ten to fifteen cents per 
pair on common rubbers, and twenty-five 
to fifty cents per pair on rubber boots 
and overshoes. The demand for rub-_ 
ber for automobile tires within the past 
few years has increased faster than the 
supply, and that is one of the reasons for 
the steady advance in prices. +:
