text_original: There was a great buzz in Sabinsport that afternoon and the next day over this revolutionary procedure. At the banks and in the offices, Cowder and Mulligan were roundly condemned  not that there was much fear of how the men would vote. Business cynicism was strong in those circles. They felt sure that the wire workers were like themselves, not going to give up a good thing for what they called an impractical ideal. What they did object to was the precedent.
