1t was not until late hour yesterday
afternoon that the full returns OF the cleo
ton were received, the Thirteenth District
being the last to send in a report. In the
Fourth Ward, the officers of the election
sat up all night to count the ballots. Just
here it will not be out of place to refer to
blunder which is frequently made by the
officers Of some of the wards and districts,
in not returning the ballots deposited at
their respective voting places, 10 the Sher-
ifs Office. In many instances the ballots
are destroyed after being counted, which IS
in direct violation of law. When the bal
lots are thus destroyed, instead OF being
carried to the Sheriff7s Office with the re-
turns, the only way in which to settle a
contested case, would be To order new
election
