The battle Of ballots that is being
waged in the city today for the pur-
pose OF electng two freeholders from
each ward to write the new charter for
the city and to allow the city to issue
bonds in the sum of $4,000 to rebuild
the dam and put in a flltering system
will not be a hard fought one with
prospects of the bond issue carrying
and the nominees being elected. On
election law about $50 voters were
registered illegally which leaves only
about $50 qualified voters out Of a pos
sible 1000 to vote.
The registration clerk allowed vot.
ers TO register within FIVE days before
the election when the books should
have been closed within ten days.
Prospects are bright for the state
courts settling the question, because
of the fact that those opposing the
bond issue will test the election in
the courts. and also the election of the
free holders to write the charter.
A NUMBER of the polls were not
opened until after 10 o'clock this
morning the judges who were appoint

wards the vote did not exceed twenty
