' Tonight the polltloal bee begins' to buss in St. Johns. The end of the wait ing time came unexpectedly yesterday when it was. announced that, a mass meeting would be held this evening to consider candidates and Issues for the municipal , election three weeks away. The call for the mass meeting is signed by Mayor King, but -the -mayor does not know who, is. anyone,, la behind the call, he having compiled with a request to call a meeting because -there was a general feeling. ithat U was time some thing definite be 'placed before' tht voters.

The peculiar thing about the primary session tonight is that no one. knows in. whose Interest the session is called, at least no. one of the usual political w laeacrea None f yt t Uers has any information 'on the snhjent, nor has any or the men supposed to be out for piece on the municipal tickets -Whatever be- the result- the- session this evening,, go. far aa placing a ticket In the field is concerned, It is sure that there will hff nther m TneHnr h.lH next week, Tonight'a-aesslon- will 4ear up the situation, and should a temper- anca ticket be the result or the meeting -theoppos1ttow-wtlt1iot(MraesKlon to fill out' another ticket: shonld'-the move prove to be one Of the license supporters. which is generally regarded aa Improb able, the Indecision of the Lav and Order league members will be ended and they will know what course to pursue. - The same trouble that was expert' enced last year In tha primary elections will be battled with again In St Johns -ttha, lack of - any psrty--arrangement that will enable regular primaries to be held and regular tickets placed In the field.- The town election eomlng in April, voters can register under the state law up -to the day of - election.

The resulting confusion not only swept away party lines, but t confused the voters until .they had no good reason to support any special ticket, and consequently the three tick' lets, already mixed, were considerably more tangled when the polls closed.
