Cox for President and Robert P. Wel¬ den and Daniel B. Raynor, easily won the election for those offices, the Citi¬ zen's ticket, headed by Frank H. Stevens, running second, and J. Huy¬ ler Ellison, on the Independent Party ticket low; the vote given the head of the People's ticket much as for the other gether.
For the other offices, namely, treas¬ urer, collector and Police Justice, the nominees of the Citizen's Party won out easily.
The total figures are as follows:

OUR NEW VILLAGE PRESIDENT I am proud of the results of the elec¬ tion Tuesday in so far as it seems to endorse the Review which has been the only newspaper in the town which has consistently stood by Mr. Cox during his political career when such papers as the Rockville Centre Observer and i the Hempstead Republican were call¬ ing him all kinds of names, and the other papers were keeping as quiet as they could,
