CONTESTED ELECTION CAsE,-The
County Court was occupied all day in
hearing the contested election case
of Corbett vs. Torreyson for member of
the Board of Supervisors from Airing
ton district. At the recent election the
Judges of election counted tie vote be-
tween Messrs. Corbett and Torreyson.
When the commissioners of election
met, MIR. Torreyson and friend of Mr..
Corbett drew straws for the place to
decide the tie and Mr.. Torreyson won.
Mr.. Corbett, who was not present when
the drawing took place, contested the
legality of the matter and took the case
to the County Court. To-day quite q
crowd of persons were present and after
the examination of few witnesses the
Court ordered recount OF the ballot.
The recount showed Corbett 210. Tor
reyson POS, blank and doubtful 4. The
doubt of the last four was caused by
improper marking of the ballots.
While the ballots were being counted
the Court took recess. On reassemb
ling counsel for Mr.. Torreyson contend
ed that the Court had no right to order
a recount ofthe ballots and on this ques
ton quite lengthy argument was
heard. The case will probably CON
tinue throughout the day.
Mr.. Corbett, republican, was repre-
sented by Messrs. F. l.. Smith, A. w
Armstrong and Edmund Burke and Mr.
Torreyson, democrat. by Messrs. J. NJ
Johnson, r. w. Moore and W. W.
Douglass.
