The indictment charging the Boston

For the first time since the close of

At the late election constitutional
amendments in favor of equal rights
to women were submitted to the peo-

: Mr. John D. W. Bodfish , the Progres-

i failed of election , is to be congratu-
¦
lated on the very successful run he
> made. In Barnstable , where he is
> best known , he received 57 per cent.
: of the votes cast , giving him a
' majority of 128 over his republican and
¦ democratic rivals . In the district he
; polled 2145 votes out of a total of
: 5201. It was a remarkable run for a
i political strang er in most sections of
I the district.
The new loth and 16th districts both
elect Democratic Congr essmen from
a territory formerly largely Republi-
can. Congress man Harri s, who was
elected two years ago by the skin of
his teeth in the old 14th (Cape), ran
third in the new 15th district being
outdistanced by both the Democratic
and Progressiv e candidates. Thomas
C. . Thacher the Democratic Cape Cod
candidate , defeated two ex-mayors of
New Bedford by 400 votes in their
own city, and over 2000in the district.
LEGISLATURE REPUBLICAN
Republicans made their hardest fight
for the Legislat ure of 1913, which will
choose a United States senator to
succeed Winthr op Murra y Crane.
Complete returns show that the
Senate will be composed of twenty-
seven Republi cans and thirteen Demo-
crats. The House will be made-up as
follows:. Repu blicans , 138; Democrats
92; Progressives , 8; Socialist , 1.
In one district, the sixth Worcester ,,
the vote is tied between Edwar d J.
McDennott of Leicester, Democrat ,
and Ernest J. Titcomb of Leicester ,
Republi can. The combined vote of
the Democrats , Progressives and So-
cialists in the House is 101. This
added to the thirteen Democrats In
the Senate , would give the combined
Republican opposition 114 votes. The
twenty-six Senate Republicans added
to the 138 in the House make 164. De-
ducting from this the 114 combined
opposition would leave the Republi-
cans counting the tied Worcester
district , fifty-one votes on joint ballot
of both branches , thus assurin g a Re-
publican United States senator to suc-
ceed Winthrop Murray Crane , and the
organization of both branches by the
Republi cans, with Greenwoo d as presi-
dent of the Senate and Cushing
Speaker of the'House.
DEMOCRATS IN FULL CONTROL
Control of the senate in the 63d con-
gress is now practically assured to the
democrats.
Conceding to the republican s the
legislatur es of all states still in the
doubtful column, the democrats will
have a vote of 48, or ju st one-half of
the entire membership of the senate ,
with a democratic vice-pr esident in
the chair to cast the deciding vote in
case of a tie.
Several states are yet to be heard
from definitely. A Benator from one
of these would give the democrats a
clear majority, and it is possible their
strength will be even farther in-
creased by winning in several.
I F. B. & F. P. Goss, Publi shers. A ROUSING RECEPTION BY THE
CITIZENS OF YARMOUTH
Neighbors from Other Cape Towns
Hel p Swell the Non-Partisan
Crowd in Greeting
An enthusias tic reception.was tend-
ered Thomas C. Thacher , the newly
elected congressman from the 16th
district , in his home town of Yar-
mouth on Saturday evening.
The re ception, which was a sur-
prise to Mr. Thache r, was arran ged
by the citizens of the town , irrespec-
tive of their political affiliations , to
show the pride they felt that once
more a fellow-townsman was to rep-
resent the district in Congress. •
Mr. and Mrs. Thacher arrived on the
last train from Boston and found a
large . crowd awaiting them at the
station. A procession was formed ,
headed by the New Bedford band , the
THOMAS C. THACHER
of Yarmouth
school children following, and march-
ed through the street to the home of
Mr. Thacher[s mother , Mrs. Henry C.
Thacher , and back to Lyceum Hall ,
where it disbanded.
All the resid ences and places of
business along the way were bri lliant-
ly illuminated , flags were flung to the
breeze , and red fire was burned all
along the route of the para de.
Lyceum hall was packed with the
residents of Yarmouth and surround-
ing villages and here the new con-
gressman was cheered again and
again. With Mr. R. H. Hefler from
the neighbori ng town of Dennis to
lead the multit ude it is unnecessary
to say that the cheering was loud and
hearty.
Mr . C. W. Swift of the Yarmouth
Register was master of ceremonies
and most happily introd uced the
speakers.
The Congr essman-elect told his hear
ers that he was indeed surprised at
the reception , and that he would en-
deavor to maintain the trust they
placed in him by electing him. He
said this was the happi est evening of
hi3 life, when the citizens of his own
town had gathered to do him honor
and to wish him godspeed in his new
field of labor ,
He could say now at the close of
the campaign , that he had done noth-
ing and said nothing to regre t and he
hoped at the end of two years he
should be able to say the same.
Mr. Thacher was followed briefly
by Mr. W. A. Schwab of the board of
selectmen , -&ft. Geo. T. McLa ughlin of
Saridwich, thf Vetera n democra t of the
Cape and Mr . Edward Cox of Brock-
ton , Mr. Thacher 's campaign manager.
All received a hearty welcome and
warm applause.
Mr. Thacher then held an informal
reception anu" was congratulated by
all present.
During the reception the band play-
ed and the audi ence joined in singing
America.
Refreshments of sandwiches and
coffee were served and the evening
ended with dancing.

Thacher Keeps His Word
The operatives at some 30 mills at
New Bedford were taken by surprise
Friday morning when Congr essman-
elect Thomas C. Thacher appeared at
the gates and pers onally thanked
the m for the support given him in his
recent campaign. When Mr. Thacher
was making his campaign speeches
at the gates several weeks ago one
operative shouted at him as he rode
away, "Will we ever see you again?"
"Sure you will," returned Mr. Thach-
er. Friday he kept his word. It is
said that this is the first , instance that
a seuceessful candidate for office has
ever presented himself at the mill
gates , thus showing his appreciation
of support given him.
Mr. Thacher shook hands with over |
2000 of the operatives.
There are now on the government' s
pension roll 538 ,000 soldiers and sail-
ors , 321,932 dependents and widows ,
