The Board of Canvassers for this county
got through the First and the Second As
Sembly districts yesterday, but were I'M
able to foot up the votes. for the reason
that discrepancies were found in five cleo
ton districts between the return OF the

the two totals, but A. s. Gilbert, the chair
man OF the law committee of the Repub-

refused TO pay the increased demand and
engaged other accountants.

completed without material change. Here
