The San Juan islander. [volume] (Friday Harbor, Wash.) 1898-1914, 1902-11-20

The official returns of the recent
election in this county, canvassed last
Friday, show that 625 votes were cast,
or only SO less than two years ago when
there was presidential election as well
as a full state ticket and two county
tickets in the field. The total vote on
the court house proposition was 563,
showing that 81 voters failed to express
themselves on this important question,
or over twice the number constituting
the majority by which the proposition
was defeated. In Blakely precincts
three voters failed to vote upon the.
question; in each of the Lopez pre-
cincts 10 neglected it; i'm Orcas No. l, 7,
No. 2, and No. 3, 2; San Juan No. /,
5, No. 2, -, No. 8, 8; Shaw island l
and Stuart l. Nearly ons-half the total
vote of the county was cast in the three
precincts of San Juan island.
