The Yale expositor. (Yale, St. Clair County, Mich.) 1894-current, 1898-09-09

1t required 43 to elect and SnOver
was hung up justin reach of the plumb
that he was never to get. His manag-
ers made frantic efforts for hours to
break the combination of st. Clair, Ma
comb and Wayne who controlled Al
votes between them, but they were as
invincible as stone wall. Snover
never got single vote from any of
these counties.
1t was also most remarkable fact
that there was not a change in this vote
for 745 ballots.
At 600 o'clock Lapeer County moved
for an adjournment. This was sup
ported by Sanilac, Huron and Lapeer,
II votes. st. Clair Macomb and Wayne
Al votes were against it and the motion
was lost.
There had been repeated rumors that
the Shower managers wanted recess
TO break into Wayne or Macomb. 1t
was also openly charged that certain
ward politician from Detroit was in the
Convention for the express purpose of
purchasing the vote of the Wayne dele
cation. This party sent one of the
Wayne men what purported to be a
request TO meet him in the basement Of
the building. Meanwhile the st. Clair
management had detective constant
ly at the elbow of the boodler and the
little game was all off.
AT 500 Judge Vance, chairman of
the st. Clair delegation conferred with
Judge Spiers of the Macomb and agreed
to a caucus of the various delegations
Hostilities ceased for one hour, each
delegation retiring to separate room.
1t had become apparent that the Ma
comb delegation were liable to break
up and if it did two or more would vote
for Snover and elect him.
At the conference that was held Gen
eral Hartsuff took part in the delibera-
tiOns of the st. Clair delegation and APP
proved of the course pursued. 1t was
decided to make an effort to secure
help from Lapeer and Sanilac and if
such assistance could be procured to
stay by Hartsuff to the last If no such
help could be obtained then the entire
vote was TO be cast for Weeks, it being
arranged that Wayne should support
ilartsuff if he could get assistance
from any other county.
On reassembllng Lapeer delegation
was Informed as to our proposal and
asked for further time. When ballot
ing began the 745 ballot was as fol

This ended the most remarkable con-
test known in the history of this dis
trict. st. Clair County had not been
able to elect their own candidate but
they had succeeded in naming another.

A SAD LOSS F!

Both to Village and the individual
interested.
Wednesday morning at s o'clock the
mill whistles screeched forth the warn
ing of fire. Dense black smoke in the
north of the village quickly decided
the location and the fire laddies were
at once on hand. But too late, for in
very short time the evaporator build
ing erected month since was razed to
the ground. The supposition was that
the fire must have caught from one of
the two iron furnaces, but all precau-
tons haying been taken against fire, it
is mystery. Work for the day was
Just beginning and no one noticed any
indications of fire until the whole
building was in blaze. About ton
of evaporated fruit was burned and
most of the contents of the build
ing ruined. There we're 1000 bushels
of apples stored IN bins outside near
the main building and good share of
them we're destroyed. The evaporation
was put up only month ago by Mr..
Weatherwax 10 men and women were
employed and the works were being
rushed to their utmost capacity, using
about $50 bushels of apples day. The
loss is in the neighborhood of $1,000
with no insurance, but Mr.. Weather
wax is an energetic, hustling business
man and will rebuild at once if the
citizens give financial assistance. The
citizens have circulated subscription
paper with the result that about 5000
has been placed at his disposal. We
trust that better luck will hereafter at
tend the pleasant proprietor of the
evaporator works.
