MINOOKA.

The auditors of Minooka will meet
this evening at Cusick's store. and a
red hot meeting is expected. as Pat
rick Duggan will be on hand to COM
pei the board to swear him in. Dug
gan alleges that Mangan was not en-
titled to the seat. as he received one
vote over the latter. A the late
election Mangan's name appeared on
both Democratic tickets. on the
true Democratic column it read Man
gon, and the board in the South dis
trict counted 109 for Mangan and 2S for
Mangon. When the returns We're
summed up the count stood as fol-
lows; Mangar 37S. Duggan 379,
Gallagher 1895, Davis 352 and Mangon
2S. This left Mangan third best, but
when last Monday arrived, the day set
for the Inauguration of township Off
cials, Mangan and Squire O'Hara We're
on hand, and. Mr. Duggan being alb
sent Mangan was inducted into office
with Charles W. Gallagher, Repub-

pears that Duggan resorted to legal
process and the situation has a gloomy
aspect at present. The Mooscite
swears by all nations that he will be
an auditor of Lackawanna for the en-
suing three years. Mangan feels safe
as he occupies the berth. This case
will in all probability be definitely
adjusted at tO-night's meeting.
