Pa. is responsible for a queer cleo
tion muddle The day before the
election il was found that Thomas J.
Bryan, in whose store the poll was
located, was III Of smallpox. His
house and store were quarantined.
and the election board hired a hall
for a polling place. The smallpox
scare kept the country voters at

the polls. An the candidates chosen
were residents Of the village, and now
the country voters have begun to
contest the election. holding that the
board had no right to change the
