Henry Christ,

Thus reducing Alexander's vote to "a and
Christ's to Is, making difference of 3 votes
between this and the official count, and
leaving the result in the county a tie, Alex
ander having by the county canvassers de-
clared elected by majority cf3. The re-
count OF the ballots in Vancouver precinct
was carefully made under the direction of
the court and an error of two votes found,
giving Christ POI instead OF 1919 as returned
by the Vancouver judges OF election, thus
slecting Christ by two majority. As both
candidates have had official experience the
county has a good officer in either of them
1t is gratifying to know that the most ami
cable relations exist between them. Under
the law Mr.. Alexander would have the costs
to pay, but Mr. Christ has kindly agreed to
pay half. Thus endeth the political war for
1850.

recounted the ballots cast in Battle Ground

elected Christ by a majority of two votes.
The official vote in Battle Ground gave
Christ II and Alexander IS votes The
count made by the court was III strict ac
cordance with the vote as shown by the
