Court in the case of John Nj. Gallo

volving the Circnit Judgeship of the
Eighth judicial district and in
which Bradburn, the Democratic
contestant for Office, was awarded
it, and remanded the case with d.
rections 20 dismiss the petition.

cause proper bond was not fled.
The opinion Of the court, which is a
conclusive victory for Judge Gallo
way, the Republican incumbent,
was delivered by Judge Hopson,

test grew was held in November,
1908. BY the official count, had at
that time, Judge Galloway received
a majority Of 27O in the district.
Special Judge Osborne, Of Harri-
son county, heard the contest, and
gave Judge 3. ". Bradburn the
office by a majority Of 342 votes. On
the appeal Of the case the attor-
neys fled a regular superseteas
bond instead Of the bond required
by the election statute, and on the
ground OF defective bond, the at
torneys for Bradburn moved the
Appellate Court 10 dismiss the ap-
peal taken from Judge Osborne's
decision. Ia OverruliDg this mo-
ton the court here holds that a de-
feet in an appeal bond can be later
amended under the provision Of
Sections 1874 and 6s2 of the code Of
practice.
As to the difference N the re-
turns by the Election Commission
and the later showing 10 the court
below, the court here says thatsthe
Circuit Judge had authority to
"summarily determine whether
the ballots had been tempered
with. The court here examined
the ballots from the two precincts
in contest and says there is no
doubt but that the ballots have
been mutilated since they were re.
turned by the election officers, "
and rule in such cases is that the
return Of the precinct officers must
be accepted as 6na,.
