Judge George NJ. Powers Has Il Under
Consideration.
Burlington, Aug. 26. The matter Of the
license local-opti0n ticket Of county nom
nations, better known as the illusion
ticket, objection to It's having place on
the official Chittenden county ballot hav-
Ing been made by several prominent Re-
publicans and some license people. was
taken up before Judge George M. Powers
at the county clerks Office yesterday af-
tern0on.
The objectors to the ballot made the
first move by raising the quotation of a
supreme court judges jurisdiction in the
matter, claiming the decision Of the coun-
ty clerk, when he decided to suppress the
ticket owing to its defective points, was
final, according to the construction Of tho
statute The decision of Judge Start in a
SC. Albans case similar to the one under
discussion here was cited. In that case
the county clerk permitted the printing Of
the contested ticket on the official ballot.
The matter then came before Judge Start.
The latter then pointed out certain defects
in the ballot.
The attorneys for the obectors in the
Chittenden county case therefore claim
that Judge Start did not take jurisdiction
TO decide whether the ticket would 90 on
the ballot or not. He simply pointed
out the ballots defects.

Too bad there isn't another team ii the
league to take fall out of us.
The Rutland and Burlington ball teams
were TO play game at a X. of G. Rut-
land and MlddleburY band picnic at Is
land park yesterday and wouldn't after
they arrived, while 1900 angry people
tried to coax them. One player said the
poor condition Of the ground might cause
injuries to them. A rumOr was that no
bath room was provided and 1t was furth-
ermore asserted by the impatient crowd
that the teams had no original intention
of playing.
A Knockers union has been formed In
Barre and there are some indications it
may spread to this city. Some of the
Barre knockers have gone sd far as to de.
clare that city will divorce itself from the
Intercity combination and put up team
Of its own next year. During the losing
streak the team Is condescendIngly re-
ferred to as Montpelier's. The Montpelier
admirers Of the team are still loyal and

played such winning streak as shown
only short time ago cannot forget how TO
play ball over night. Montpelier Argus,
