ELECTION COMMISSION.
A Decision Against the Increase of
CITY Precincts.

The Election Commissioners held an
other session yesterday for the purpose of
passing on the maps prepared by Registrar
Evans for the reproducing of the city for
the next general election. Max Pepper,
representing the general committee of the
Democratic party, was present and ad-
dressed the commission on the advisa-
bility of increasing the number of pre-
ciDcts so that each one would contain no
more than 200 votes. To do this, he argued,
would only increase the precincts by IL,
and the cost of maintaining these would
be more than paid for by the gain OF ex-
petition in handling returns. with less
chances OF fraud in the counting.
The Commissioners decided not to in
crease the number of precincts on account
OF the expense, as each one additional cost
500, and proceeded 10 pass upon the maps.

There were nearly hundred grown-up

they repaid her by listening with rapt in

In the meantime the Turk sauntered
over to the politicians. who. having heard

his financial condition. determined to
spring a joke on him. Fifteen dollars was
quickly gathered and handed to the ped

everybody expected to see the orator
