The Locas Elections.
TIE .r o,i~D lu Wuuus So. Oh Tu I'd y
was quiet affair, and but for the indie
pendent candidacy of Edward K. Robin
son for the Borough Council, there would
have been no contest, and the election
entirely devoid of special interest. With
this exception there was no opposition to
the regular borough ticket nominated
last Friday night by the caucus OF
citizens, and which received the follow
ing vote. Mr.. Robinson's candidacy
made three men running for Council, two
to be elected, the successful ones being
Mr.. Robinson and George Horner. There
were 199 votes polled, which is only
about half of the registered vote:
