trail Committee last Saturday Mr..
Bailey requested the Committee to
count the ballots. The committee
granted this request and adjourned
over till last Monday for the purpose
Of making the count. On Monday
Mr.. Robinson appeared before the
committee ana opJected 10 the count
Of the ballots, and a motion to re-
the action of the Committee
on Saturday, granting the request
to count the ballots, was made and
carried, and the committee refused
to count the ballots.
In Carroll county the first reports
and the unofficial count gave the
county to White, candidate for coun-
ty judge by two votes. The official
count of the tally sheets gave it to
Fancher, his opponent, by one vote.
Then a request was made on last
for the Central Committee
to count the ballots. This request
was granted and the committee ad-
journed over to Tuesday last to
make the count. On Tuesday the
committee made the count which re-
suited in giving the county to
Fancher by Sc majority. Toms
many friends in Boone will rejoice to
hear of his good fortune.
