HOUSTON, April g.. Although
the city Democratic ticket was elected
by 1000 majority, the Independents
are to enter a contest which if enter
tanned will allow the present incumb-

years. The grounds of the contest are
that the Australian ballot law was
violated because clerks instead of
judges filled tickets for the illiterate;
because a city employee was an cleo
ton judge; because politicians were
allowed within the booths and one Of
ficer is alleged to have sought bride.
