4th District
FIRST OF THE, FOURTH.

Conditions at the polling place of the
First Precinct of the Fourth District
were perhaps typical of conditions i'm
all the precincts of this region. There
was not a large crowd at the opening
of the polls, but it increased rapidly
during the next half hour Voting went
along without incident, and at noon
about III of the 374 registered voters of
the precinct had voted.
SECOND OF THE FOURTH.
Aside from the disqualification OF
one of the Democratic watchers at the
polling place of this precinct there was
nothing out of the ordinary. The Home
Rulers had more men here than at most
of the other precincts around. Out
of 342 registered voters in the precinct.
III had voted at 1890 o'clock.
THIRD OF THE FOURTH.
The Third Precinct of the Foruth Dis
trict is probably the only precinct i'm
the county at which there were neither
Democratic or Home Rule watchers,
and at which Democratic or a Home
Rule sample ballot could not be pro-
cured. Senator Dickey was at the
polling place for a while distributing
Civic Federation literature.
w. A. Hopper was the first man at
| the polling place and the first man to
vote and H. f. Hendrick was the sec
ond. The line heightened rapidly after
s o'clock and by noon 1853 of the 300 re-
gistered voters of the precinct had vot-
ed.
FOURTH OF THE FOURTH.
The polling place of the Fourth Pre-
cinct of the Fourth District is i'm Tho
mas Square. About half the vote was
in by noon. The Republican watchers
We're well provided for in a tent that
was pitched under the shade of tree
about 100 feet away from the booths.
SEVENTH OF THE FOURTH.
Voting is moving at a good rate i'm the
Seventh Precinct of the Fourth District.
/ The polling place was once c. @. zee
Hops market. In the corner store
three booths are placed but these are
not enough to satisfy the voters and
! they are, many of them, going to cor
ners in the back store and there squat
ting and marking their ballots on their
knees.
Col. Samuel Parker was one of those
who could not wait for a place at
booth. He went to the back store and
a little table once used for the exhibition
, of vegetables. Here he perched with
his back to the window and marked his
ballot with bunch of curious fellows
on the outside trying to get a line on
how the Colonel was voting.
In this precinct there are 34S regis
tered voters. At 11.2O o'clock this fore
noon $50 had cast their ballots and a
hundred more were i'm line with fingers
itching for the pencil.
II. T. Lake was very much in pro-
minence as an electioneer. Jack
Lucas was also i'm evidence. Across
the street from the voting place is the
shop of f. w. Quinn, plumber and can
didate for the House on the Republican
ticket. In there they are keeping close
tab on the votes cast. There is little
talk along the "dead-sure" line and
split-tickets abound. Everything is
quiet in this precinct and no rumpus of
any kind has occurred.

booths and over 100 men stood about
outside.
In this precinct the Brown men claim
800 votes and allow Iaukea but 40 for
sheriff. McClanahan and Trent count
many friends in the Eighth and Quinn
win poll a big vote it is said, i'm this

for Brown and Vida.
