II this Ia 80, il is probably the FIRST time
such thing has occurred IN this county
1t did, we believe, occur IN Keweenaw
when the late Mr.. Carey, who was q
strong temperance man, was elected.
As the saloon interest, particularly H.
Hancock, was opposed to Mr.. Lean,
while he was in a great measure. SUP
ported by the prohibitionists, il NAV b.
expected that Mr.. Lean will be more act.
i've in discharging his duties in connection
with the liquor law than his predecessor;
the saloonkeepers certainly cannot say
they helped elect him.
County Clerk Shields leads the count,

sition. Mr.. Dominick Borgo asked for
support on the ground that he was n
poor man and needed the Office to sup
port his family, but omitted to state
whether he was QUALIFIED to discharge
the duties OF the Office. Being almost q
stranger tn the county the voters gener-
ally knew very little of him or his qualif-
cations.
The prohibitionist vote was only lat
while two years ago their vote for gov.
ernor was 40, and, as the ranks OF the
temperance people have considerably in
creased during the last two years, their
vote would, no doubt, have amounted TO
at least 500. The vote shows that very
many must have voted for the republican
ticket, for which the NEWS thanks them.
