The delegates from Anthony town
ship reported that Cook, Merrill and
Sechler had each received the same
number OF votes in that district and
asked for instructions as TO how they
should vote. 1t was decided by the
convention that the only way in which
the delegates of Anthony could carry
out the wishes of the voters and at the
same time not give the district more
votes in the convention than it was en-
titled to was for the delegates to vote
one and one-third for each of three
candi dates this would give the town
ship the equivalent of four votes,
which was what fell to every other
district in naming the two highest
candidates. But one vote was taken
with the following result:
y. w. Cook, ,22 aud two-thirds; John
A. Merrill. l2 and one third George
Rudy Sechler, 90 and two thirds JOS
