A SENATORIAL CONTEST.

"A SEN AlOtSlAL SOA< i E04
dubuque Times.]
Hon. Thomas F. Nolan, democratic
candidate for state senator at the recent
election in Dubuque county, has filed 9
notice of contest against Col p. w
Crawford, the republican candidate
who received a plurality Of q on the
face of the returns. Col Crawford
month ago. despite a clerical error
which added 100 to Mr.. Nolan's vote,
was awarded the certificate Of election
because the latter waived all claims
arising from this error. 1t seems Mr. No
Ian subsequentlyrepe this course and
concluded to make contest before the
state senate, of which body he was for
merly member. His petition alleges:
First-Improper conduct of election
officers.
Second-Improper counting of the bal
lots.
Under the first head he alleges the
presence of an extra republican clerk In
the Fourth ward, First precinct, Du-
buque.
The election officers in Dubuque coun-
ty whom this democratic candidate
charges with improper conduct were ap-
: r
pointed by board of supervisors COM
posed exclusively Of democrats.
The Times says locally elsewhere:
The action of Hon. Thomas Nolan in
deciding to contest the election of Col.
Crawford as senator from this the Thir-
ty-fifth senatorial district, is unfavora-
bly, commented upon by both democrats
and republicans. It is considered that
Mr. Nolan has made bad mistake, and,
from what leading democrats say. his
course will not be approved by the dem.
ocrats of the county. The fact that he
has decided to contest the colonel's cleo
ton after once having waved all claim
to a certificate. was the subject of con-
yersation in offices and business houses.
Those discussing the matter included
democrats and republicans, and in not n
single instance was there anything said
in approval OF his action.
