JUDGES Of ELECTION

Council Last Night.
A REPUBLICAN SWEEP

P. ADHERENTs CHOSEN,
And Fifty-Two Demoerats-Republi-
can Majority In the Council Rode
Rough-shod Over the Wishes of
the Minority.

You can take what we choose to
give you; not what you are rightfulIy
entitled to-"
This, evidently, was what governed
the action Of the Republican members
of the city council last evening in the
appointment of judges of election last
night. The Democratic side of the
house protested against railroading
through the prearranged list and with
difficulty secured the Scdnt courtesy of
being permitted to name the minority
appointees. When the list was finally
adopted the Republicans were found to
have secured two out Of the three in
each of the 81 voting districts, although
in the majority representation of judges
the -partisans were literally recoS
nized.
The matter came W from the COM
mittee on elections, consisting of Coun-
cilmen OMeara, Wisconlb and Hay
ward, who gratuitously submitted a list
and recommended that the persons
named therein be appointed judges OF
the municipal election on Nov. 2. and
that their compensation be fixed al 50
each for their services on that day
In reply to questions, O'Meara said the
list had been prepared by the elections
committee without reference to the rec
concentrations submitted by the city
committees of the Republican and
Democratic parties, and in fact some
names had been picked upon the
streets"
THE SLATE" BROKEN.
This explanation resulted in the min
ority securing a recess to permit an
inspection of the slate When the
proceedings were resumed Lloyd had
list Of substitutions so that the ''sheep
could be separated from the goats"

Lloyd and Hayward we're obliged to
fight hard to get the scant courtesies
which the majority, led by OMeara,
were forced to yield. When the ma
iority rode rough shod over the minor
ity the vote stood 8 to 4 Invariably.
However, the vote was reversed on
the motion to have G. a. Carlquist SUI
persede John Stubbs' name Then.
again, the conflict over the supplantinS
Of Martin LenZi with T. c. Patten was
be sponsor for Lenzi's Democracy, but
reluctantly yielded to more competent
judges.
After much bitter cross fire of de-
bate. in which the non-partisan candi-
date members, Callister and Romney,
acted with the Republicans the list
was finally adopted as amended. 1t is
