Cambridge Democrats Triumph Narrow Daly Victory in City Election
The Cambridge election result strengthens Democratic power despite McNamee's defeat. Daly's win is a clear Democratic victory with cross votes from city employers, while Nonpartisan and Independent candidates lag. Champlin's claim that Independent votes would hand the board to Nonpartisans is deemed unlikely. The Allen Coveney victory and Shaughnessy-Stewart vote shift confirm party strength and the decline of Nonpartisanism.

McNamee Defeat Shapes Cambridge City Politics
In Cambridge the election results leave a fully Democratic city council with McNamee Democrats dominating. The Non-partisan faction collapses, and Daly’s defection underscores the shift as McNamee’s influence is praised for unifying the Democratic machine against the opposition.
Street Men Discharged After Election Parade
After the election the street department workers who had been on parade for a month were laid off at noon. The paper urges the layoff proves political use of city funds to secure votes, criticizes General Champlin, and argues Republicans must reveal their true stance to cleanse city politics.
