people who did
Mr.. Johnson, who in connection with
Mr.. Hall, was present in defense of the
Mapleton voters, said that in making
out the municipal registration list,
only those were permitted to register
who lived within Springville's corpo-
rate limits. He said he was ready to
prove this and also that no one had
voted except those living within the
corporate limits of that city.

concluded, went into executive session
and did not give their decision until

The interest &C the day was kept UP
by Mr.. Thome of Pleasant Grove, who
sprung an important matter later in
the day. He said that Alexander Bull
lock ana James o. Bullock, brothers,
had been the Republican and Demo-
cratic nominees for mayor of the city.
James o. had been elected by q. bare
majority of two and he had a PROPOSE
ton to suggest which would make it a
tie with his Republican brother On
one ballot James Bullock had been
scratched and the name san" Bull
lock substituted. Alexander was COM
monty known as San" but instead of
giving him the vote the judges had put
the name on a separate list. Further
than this a certain young Republican
who was a lifelong resident of the
territory, was debarred from voting.
Mr.. Thorne wanted this vote counted,
and expected by gaining this and the
San vote to make a barlock The
board explained that its duties were to
canvass votes already in and not to
adjudicate on the right of any one to
cast ballot The hearing of the case
was set for Friday.
