The daily appeal. [volume] (Carson City, Nev.) 1906-1907, 1906-05-29

The hottest school election ever
held in the city of Carson was that of
Monday, that resulted in the election
of a new board of school trustees by
two to one majorties.
When the campaign first started
1t was hard to get men to stand for
the office, as there has been so much
criticism of the old board that the
right kind of men were reluctant
DR.. Won Radesky and C. L. Deadly.
finally we're induced to stand for the
offices and the fight began.
Monday every effort was made to
get out the vote, as members of the
old board felt that if they could get
out big vote, they would win hands
down.
The vote was heavy all right, but
the usual miscalculations were made
and some states were upset.
The ballots were cast as follows.
G. L. Deadly .261
DR.. c. w. R. Won Radesky ......242
Charles Stewart .................14 O
Augustus Cults .................12 III
Total number cast 399, of which IA
were thrown out as defective or void
ballots.
The Appeal made an effort Tuesday
morning to see the newly elected
members, who with J. P. Meder, hold
over member. will constitute the board
and to get some expression as to the
policy to be pursued, especially as
rumors were circulated to the effect
that if the new members were elected,
the teachrs would fall beneath the
axe of pont.cal exigency.
MR.. DEADY's Statement

LOOK OUT FOR BAD COINS

Yesterday Cashier Davis, at the
State Bank and Trust Co. discovered
a twenty dollar gold piece that seemed
smaller than the rest of the coins
in the stack. He investigated the

put through q machine which replaced
the milled edge known as the read

He took the coin to Mint where it
was carefully weighed and found to
have lost Sc cents by the sweating
process. A good many Of these pieces
are floating about Nevada and merch-
ants are warned to look out for them.
