movement in opposition to the repub-
lican city organization, Frank J..
German, "a years old, reporter.
was nominated at the last minute for

years.
About all a county commissioner
In Pennsylvania has to do IL to see
that the election ballots are print
ed correctly and have general SUPER
vision over the election officers.
Three are elected In each county
every three years--two by the ma
jority party. the third place goinx
to the minority party which polls
the largest vote OF the two nominat-
ed by his party.
1t was in this way that German
get the Job. German was graduated

CLOSE CALL
IN sAosAoNE
Joseph Keane, Republican Nominee,
Finallv Wins.

Wallace. Ida, Nov. Late last
evening returns were received from
Elk Prairie, the last precinct in the
county to report. They did not ma
terially affect the result in the coun-
ty. 1t is now known that the race
between Joseph Keane. Republican,
and A. G. Kerns. Democrat. for the
state senate, has been determined in
favor of the former. Shoshone coun-
ty will therefore be represented in
in the legislature by a Republican
senator and three Republican repre-
sentatives. The only county officials
elected by the Democrats are sheriff,
treasurer and one commissioner.
Rumor was in circulation that
Democratic central committees would
start proceedings to have the vote
in Mace precinct thrown out at the
official count on account of alleged
irregularities and that alleged coer-
cion on the part of some of the en-
ployers in the mines will be made
the basis of complaint. 1t is not gem
orally believed such action will be
taken. however, nor that there Is
warrant for 1t.
