W. Bay-rand Bohemian-vi.
The largest and most enthusiastic lie-
pnhlioan caucus ever held in Norwalk,
convened at the Town House. last night.
Voters from the First and Third districts
pushed, crowded and squeezed into the
ancient structure until the floor timbers
crooked under the unusual weight. East
Norwalk was therein force. theirstrength
being apparent by the five empty trolley
cars which stood outside. It is estimated
that fully two hundred and fifty came up
from that enterprising section of the
town. The cause of the large attendance
was the struggle for, the nomination of
aelectnran between Oscar W. Raymond.
the present incumbent, and Bradley 8.
Keith. Both are popular,and it was simp-
ly a question of who got the most friends
out to vote for him.
AtB o’clock, when Bradley 8. Keith,
chairman of the town committe. called
the assembly to order there was scarcely
standing room in the building.
Francis Leonard was elected chairman
and John H. Wade secretary. Mr.
Leonard, in taking the chair, remarked
that, as the gathering was supposed to be
all Republicans. he hoped none but voters
who intended to support that ticket
would take any part in the proceedings.
A motion to take a formal ballot for
a candidate for selectman was lost.
George W. Craw then nominated Oscar
W. Raymond, in behalf of the citizens of
East Norwalk.and before the applause
had died away the gathering became
equally demonstrative over the name of
Bradley 8. Keith. A motion for an in-
formal ballot then prevailed, and the
chair appointed J. A. Pinneo. Harry
Morehouso, H. E. Bishop, Harry Ryde;
Dr. W. l“. Acton. W. A. Curtis and J.
H. Hoyt tellers
As it was apparent that it Would be
almost impossible to transact the busi-
ness of the caucus in such cramped
quarters. a motion was made to adjourn
to the Opera House. This was carriid,
and when the meeting was called to order
it is estimated that over 600 voters were
present. The seating capacity of the
house was taxed to its utmost down
stairs and there was a large number
standing in the rear of the hall. In the
gallery there were but few vacant seats.
(letting down to business the caucus
proweded to an informal ballot for se-
lectinan. 425 votes being first, of which
Oscar W, Raymond had 24:3, and Brad-
ley 6. Keith 183. While the ballots were
being counted a collection amounting to
$17.52 was taken. As a call was about
to be made for a formal ballot. Mr. Keith
stepped forward on the stage and said he
had asked no one to vote for him and be
thanked those who lied done so. lie
then moved that the nomination of Oscar

was carried amid great applause.
