SPECIAL ELECTION ON LICENSE
Anti Forces as a Rule Remain Away
from Polls,


BLAIR, Neb., April A.-(Special Tele-
gram. 1.-The special election which was
petitioned for by the license faction and
granted by and ordered to be held by the
city council, resulted today in 2Ss votes for
the granting OF license and % against
license. At the spring election the wet and
dry city proposition was placed upon the
regular ticket and the result was un-
satisfactory to the license men, hence to-
days election, which the anti-license peo-
pie term a straw vote and illegal election.
The tight has been a bitter one and a
house to house canvass was made by the
ants with petitions asking voters to stay
away from the polls and pay no attention
to the election. Grave charges are made on
both sides, The anti-license people assert
that the followers Of the old council and
the councllmen elect have favored the
special election to give them chance to
escape the responsibility Of making a dry
town. the majority Of them having pledged
themselves to be governed by the majority
vote on the other hand the anti-license
people are charged with having pulled on
their forces to escape the blame OF making
a dry town and killing business and other
wise hurting the interests OF the city.

Mayor WOLF was notified last night that
a trainload OF 800 refugees from San Fran
cisco would pass through here about
o'clock tonight and was requested 10 see
that they were fed. Through the effort Of
W. r. Wilson, who started this relief fund,
as he has a good many other similar funds,
and Rev. w. H. Buss OF the Congregational
church and others the food was soon raised.
Four hundred pounds of roast beef, forty
dozen eggs. bread. butter, coffee. milk and
sugar were made ready. Mayor Wolz gave
the use Of his ovens for cooking the meat
and Mr.. Buss had the eggs boiled. The
bakeries gave very literally for the bread
and there was plenty to so around.
Mayor WOLF was informed by wire at
