AsLiKefy: Triangular Contest for JUS

t5sEtssf
Fflnc eton elections always come
early enough in the year to present
Et 70 e's Y at the polls. with New
! fs ears . presents. While there are no
salaries attached to the village offices,
other than that of recorder, usually
there here is lively contest at each cleo
t = honors at the polls. To serve
ttheeapeople as president:of the council,
or g be one of the council is more or
lesAof q sacrifice, but if there are any
dlsp.ntea rights or privileges in an
election then there is great honor in
the the words win or victory. "
Las year Princeton, witnessed "a
hotstimfe in We old town" at the spring
election, and there was bad taste in
many mouths some time afterwards
13'tS year, fortunately, rival inter-
estssgot together and there was prac-
tica1lyys (! only one ticket in the field, the
ticket ,t being straight one from DR..
Armltage, as president down to j. F.
Peterson, as treasurer. Both NJ. c..
and VaIentine Sausser ran for assessor,
which was wholly unnecessary, how
ever, as the council appoints it's own
assessor: There we're three candidates
for Justice of the peace, &C. A. Dickey,
G.. d. sChadbourne and M. L. Germany
being the trio of candidates for Judi
cialhonors. ....... ..
| The voters realized that Valentines
| day was not far off and concluded to
elect young Sausser as assessor, but
the new council. will act as board of
review on the peoples choice. The
triangular fight for Justice" was a
warm. one, and between the present
incumbent, Mr.. Dickey, and C. H.
Chad bourne, it was very close, the
latter winning by four votes.
The vote was as follows: T. L..
Armitage, for president of the council,
lis. Briggs, N. E. Jesmer. and r. E..
Jones trustees, J. W. Goulding, re-
cors and ]. z. Peterson, treasurer.
each received 154 votos. Valentine
Sausser; for assessor received ia votes.
and M. G. ,Sausser A, For justices of
the peace, G. H. Chad bourne, received
SO votes, G. A. Dickey 50, and NJ. l..
| Germany SO.
There were l59 votes cast, the scat
tering votes were as follows: For
president w. Veal /, G. A. Jack /: for
trustees, Owen Newton l, D. W.
Spauding l. L. W. Pierson l, NJ. J..
Jaax L; for recorder. E. NJ. Chapman l..
One intelligent voter, who evidently
had not recovered from his last
Australian ballot act, marked a cross
after each name.
G. H. Chadbourne did not enter the
race until the eleventh hour, and went
in and carried away the plum.
The new council will meet in a
short time and take up the reins of
village government. The only change
in the personnel of the council will be
in the Office of president of the council,
DR.. Armitage succeeding T. H. Galley
who has held the position for years
and concluded he had served the vii
lage long enough. The other men,
bers of the council served last year.
