The Election.

Very few people have learned there
was to be an election today, and an
other one tomorrow, as the mayors
proclamation was buried in s'tbe official
paper" an obscure publication that
has only q circulation of perhaps 300
including it's free list; and there have
been numerous caustic comments on
I'll is way of doing things.
The election of today is to determine
the levying of a tax of one half of one
per cent for the maintenance of q pub
lie school system in Ell Paso. This in
volving financial question, as it does,
only proF erty owners, or property tax
or none of these read s'the official
paper" the turn out today is woefully
small. At p. NJ, there were but six
votes cast in wa,d l at LIS in ward 2,the
vote was 10; at 1:2O in wa d 3, the vote
was "a: and at :25 in ward 4, the vote
was q; total Of eighty votes in a city
of IL. 600 inhabitants.
The ward l polling place is at the old
city hall building, with Messrs. A.
judges. The ward 2 polling place is
back of the Senate saloon on Overland
street, with Messrs. J. 81. Harper,Jak
Catlin and 81. r McCann as judges.
The ward 3 polling place is in the
north side of the Sheldon block, with
Messrs. :. y. Lessor, Il. b. Bias aud
r. 81. Roberts as judges. The ward
polling place Is in the street commis-
sioner's building on North Oregon
street, with r. A. Spivey. A. Schloss
and M. J. Lennon as judges.
The election Of tomorrow will be for
school trustees, when all citizens can
vote and are urged to turn out aud do
so. Today's election is apparently solid
for .levyine the tax.
The exact wording of the ballot be-
ing deposited today, read is as follows:
In favor of an annual ad-valorem tax,
not exceeding one half of one per cent,
being levied and collected TO support
