Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Granite Monthly, Vol. 58 December was an eventful month in New Hampshire political and civil, life, bringing the announcement from Governor John G. Winant that he would be a candidate for a second term as governor in the Republican primaries of 1926 and the announcement from ex-Governor Robert P. Bass that he would seek the Republican nomination for the United Slates Senate. This assured a contests for the two major nominations at the hands of the party voters, Huntley N. Spaulding having announced his candidacy for the Governorship while the Legislature was in session last year and Senator George II. Moses, whose term expires, having confided in the voters of the state during the campaign last fall that he would seek re-election. Then, there was a ripple of excitement in Concord when it was reported that Frederick I. Blackwood, deputy secretary of state, and for more than 20 years a member of the city government, was looking longingly at Edward H. Wason´s seat in Congress, the report stating that if Congressman Wason did not run in 1926 that Blackwood would seek the scat. This brought quite a bit of distinction to the Secretary of State´s Office as the secretary, Hobart Pillsbury. once made the run for Congress and is still understood to be in a receptive mood. There were flurries of excitement also when results of two city elections were contested, those at Portsmouth and Franklin. At Portsmouth charges of fraud quieted down when a recount showed Mayor Orel Dexter. Democrat, defeated, by Charles M. Dale. Republican. At Franklin however, with former Supreme Court Chief Justice Frank X. Parsons on one side of the conference table and Major Robert C. Murchie. Democrat national committeeman, on the other, it was decided at a reconut that there was a tic between Elmer D. Kelley. Republican, and Louis H. Douphinetts, Democrat, a former mayor, for the mayoralty and a new election was called for January 12. The death of Justice William A. Plummer of the Supreme Court occurred on November 29 and the following week a fitting ceremony was conducted in the Supreme Court rooms at Concord, with former Justice James W. Remick of Concord and former Chief Justice Frank N, Parsons, taking active parts. Judge Plummer´s death made it necessary for Governor Winant to name a successor and he promoted Judge Oliver W. Branch of Manchester from the Superior Court, the executive council confirming the appointment at its last meeting of 1925. As the year ended Governor Winant had not named a new associate justice for the Superior Court or designated a new chief justice. Several developments among the public utilities of the state caused widespread interest. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
