Winners
The election held in Casnion
last Tuesday was the first genu-
ine election held here in a num-
ber of years. For several years
past the old members have held
over, or else there has been only
one candidate for the office and
the elections have been merely a
matter of form. However, things!
were somewhat different this |
year. The only offices contested
were commissioner for first and
third w~rds. In ward one, W.
M. Stoner, the present commis-
sioner, was defeated by J. B.
Allen 40 to 44. In third ward
the candidates did not run so
c,osely, J. H. Rector taking the
lead by a big majority. The
ballots showed as follows: J. H.
Rector ,50; G. P. Davidson 28;
and S. P. Farmer low man with
7. Joe Ryan, for commissioner
of Ward two, I. Stone lor Treas-
urer, and A. J. Garnett for
Clerk had no opposition. The
final count showed for Ryan 66;
xor Stone 74; for Garnett 70.
