Special to mes-Republican.
Webster City, March 27.-The cleo
ton in this city Monday was very hot
one, the issue being whether or not
franchise should be granted to the
firm Of Brown & Workman of Des
Moines. The Des Moines men won in
neck and neck finish by PIG votes.
AS to whether or not any fight will be
made on their franchise on the grounds
of Judge McVey's decision that the
election is neither general nor a
special one was not known last night.
The general sentiment, however,
seems to be to accept the recorded will
of the people and it is not likely that
the matter will be carried to law.
