The race for member of the Central
Council developed unexpected intere3t.
While the Aldermanic candidates had
canvassed the ward thoroughly, there
had been no canvass of any sort fol-
Central Council The day opened with
three candidates for the two places on
the City Executive Committee. Clio
verdale had one candidate. Sheehan.
and Highland Park had two, Roemer
and Bogacki. The race for Aldermen.
which had absorbed the interest of the
ward until election day. took a secon-
dairy place for time.
For near two weeks the ward was
being canvassed by the AldermanIc
candidates and their friends. When
the polls were opened and, in fact.
when they were closed last night, the
result of the contest for Aldermen was
in doubt. While all the work had
been done for the Aldermanic places,
the result of the work was only to be
seen by the tabulated result at the
polls. The candidates and their friends
were active enough through the day.
but 1t is hardly probable that many
votes were changed on the day of the
primary.
The campaign was somewhat fiercer
than the usual Aldermanic race. The
gomery Light and Water Power Com
pany and the Citizens Light, Heat and
Power Company entered largely into
the contest. The electric light fgh.
was a fruitful field for allegations and
counter allegations of influence exerted
by the one company or the other. AL
legations were made that this company
or that company was interested in the
candidacy OF this man or that man.
These allegations. 1t is said. came more
from the enthusiastic supporters Of
the candidates than from the candi
dates themselves. At any rate, tho
electric light fight cut a more or less
figure in the campaign. In fact. II ap.
peared to be the only issue. Otherwis"
the contest was question of personal
popularity.
The voting while prompt and rapid,
was done quietly. No untoward Incl i.
dent narred the day at either of the
polling places. The rain in the after
noon affected the total vote but little.
The Cloverdale polling place was on
Burton Avenue between Hull Street
and the Norman Bridge Road. The
