ELECTION NOTES.


SO active We're the canvassers in Ward
-Four that the big vote which was cast was
i'll by O'Clock. After that hour the few
voters who appeared at the polls, came
struggling along one by one. Mr. Van
Pattcn resides in this ward. He voted early
and quickly, bowing pleasantly to the elec-
ton officers and showing his modesty in
bushes in return for their words of greet
ing. The ballot box was turned prompt
ly at O'Clock and it took the
clerks one hour and quarter to
make, count and verify it. Some
comment of an unkind nature arose through
Mr.. G. l.. LaFountain's acting as presiding
election inspector and assisting illterate
voters to mark their ballots, while being IA
candidate for alderman. In justice TO Mr.
LaFountain it should be said that he APP
peared to recognize the fact that he ought
not to act in this capacity under the cir
cumstances but did SO on the advice of his
party leaders
Voting was conducted with a rush during
the first hour in the Third and Fifth wards.
In the Third ward the 800 mark had been
