Saturday and showed by the vote
cast that the property owners take
very little interest in such elections.
There were four new members cleo.
ted, one each from the First, Second,
Eighth and Twelfth wards. The
other eight members elected had
served in the Board for the four
years preceding. Several contests
took on quite regular election day
spirit, notably in the Fifth and
Ninth wards, both of the old men,
bers,f L. B. Morrow and Robert
Adalr being elected from their re-
spective wards, while in the Sixth
ward Robert e. Fraim received
nearly every vote cast, his oppo-
nent. Mordecai Barnes getting but
b votes. In the Twelfth ward, J.
w. Shatfner defeated George l..
Morris. Quite a number of women
voted. Only about 1000 voted. The
position is an honorary one, no
salary being attached to it, but all
the same there are men who want
to hold the positions and make a
big fight for their election.
