cd until they closed. The Democratic
election officers in some Of the wards be-
gan the day with contention, but they
we're given to understand that the elec-
ton was going to be held on the square
and that every man entitled to vote
should do so. They finally submitted to
this and there was harmony on the in
side, as well as out.
The Democratic officers were the only
people fooled. They failed 10 realize
that sentiment was against their ticket
and they did not see the way things
we're going ond. even when the polls were
closed. they were claiming victory. The
beginning of the count. however, opened
their eyes, but still they contended for
everything they could get out Of it, IN
til the vote was counted and the returns
made up.
The vote cast was the largest in the
history Of the city. The total vote was
1852, and divided as follows: First
ward, 200; Second ward, 342; Third
ward. S6l; Fourth ward, 32G. and Fifth
ward. 1928. The total number OF votes
thrown out on account Of not having
been marked as required by law was
SC. viz. in the First ward, l2 in the
second. u in the Third, II in the Fourth
and IA in the Fifth. The total vote last
year was 1855. The gain over last year
Is lG7 votes. showing a considerable
growth in the population. But the en-
tire vote was not out BY at least 200
or 300. An important feature about the
vote Is that it shows that the city IS
building toward the west, the Fourth and
Fifth wards having made the greatest
gains in the vote.
The results by wards will be found in
the official table in another column.
