DEMOCRATS WIN CITY 

AND COUNTY OFFICES 

A flood tide of political or public sentiment came in and broke over Albany on Tuesday, caused by a Democratic high wind that had been blowing, and a miniature cyclone played around the capitol and drew into its cone shaped cloud those that were not carried away by the flood. It is at least twenty years since such a thing has happened, which makes it more notable. 

A few Republicans who sought high places or like Noah had builded an ark of public favor, were saved. Ellis J. Staley of Albany and Justice Jospeh Rosch of Liberty were elected to the supreme court from the third judicial district, by a lead of about 3000. 

Guilderland township and the Village of Altamont stood by the Republican Party throughout all the ticket. 

Altamont Furniture Store 

Adds New Business 

The Altamont Furniture store, located in its new quarters on Main street, adjoining the railroad, has added another branch to the business that surely was needed in this community. By arrangement with one of the large electric supply companies of Albany, they are able to offer their patrons electric washers, irons, percolators, toasters, etc. This firm also handles Stewarts stoves, ranges and furnaces. 

VILLAGE NOTES. 

A Hallowe’en party was given at the high school on Friday evening, October 28. Every guest was requested to wear a sheet and to wear or carry something to represent the ghost of some well known person. When the guests had all arrived, a guessing contest began. The person guessing the greatest number of representations was given a prize. 

VOORHEESVILLE.
Girls of a generation ago and the clothes they wore are brilliantly contrasted with the girls of to-day and the clothes they don’t wear in “Short Skirts,” being shown at the I. O. O. F. hall on Saturday night, November 12th, with fascinating Gladys Walton as the star. “Short Skirts” is a picture with a message. It is not a story told for the sake of a moral nor does it drag in a lesson in the wrong way but in a subtle way points to the tendency of modern youngsters to make the transition from childhood to maturity with a single bound. This, the story points out, is due to the example set young people by their elders and to the lack of restraint in the average American woman.
