|OUNTY SEAT
REMOVAL LEADS
arrisOn is LOyal--D Democrats Gain
on County Ticket.


heaviest vote that 1t has ever cast
In its history. There are 9434 vot-
ers registered in the county, and the
estimate made is that 10 per cent
for one reason or another will fail
to vote, and that the vote cast will
be about S491, and that of the 35S9
registered in the city, that 1921 will
be cast, but it may be that owing
to the fine weather, and the effective
work being done by the workers at
the polls that a much heavier vote
will be cast.
The day broke clear and bright In
the east and continued balmy and
warm, and more perfect day for
the election could not have been Sc
cured. No election ever held in the
county has had such great interest
and significance attached to it
especially by the voters Of
Occur d'Alene and forN fully
an hour before the time had
arrived for the opening of the polls,
the people of the city, both men and
women had formed themselves into
line for the purpose of voting early
and then going into the field to do
campaign work. The balloting is
going forward in all Of the precincts
at rapid rate and the managers
of the campaign will make every
effort to vote the entire registration,
and feel confident that they will sue
coed in doing so.
The main issue Is the county seat
fight and in the contest that is be-
ing waged for victory by the fac
tions representing both sides, the po-
litical parties and the issues be-
tween them are practically forgotten,
and but little interest is shown in
the election or defeat of the tickets
placed by them in the field. Both
Of the leading parties have workers
in the field, and both claim the cleo
ton of their entire ticket. The
county is naturally republican by a
good majority, but the democrats
have conducted a vigorous and ag-
gressive campaign on the extrava-
gance and lavishness and high rate
of taxation of the republican coun-
ty administration, and are confident
that it will result in a material re-
duction of the republican majority.
The contest between the republicans
and democrats centers around the
sheriffship and the assessorship. The
democrats claim the election of both
these officers, and considerable
money has been wagered on them.
Those in charge Of the county seat
campaign are sanguine of success,
and on the result of this election con-
siderable money has been wagered.
The interest is keen and the en-
thusaism is at a high pitch. The
contest has been vigorously waged
by both factions ever since the early
spring, and both realize the sig
nificanee of the result today at the
polls. With Rathdrum the issue
means the existence of the town, and
If it looses, the town is doomed
to a business and Industrial death,
and to Occur d'Alene defeat means
that six long years will have to go
by before the question of the re-
moval OF the county seat can again
be submitted to a vote Of the peo-
pie.

The voting in the city precincts
throughout the day has been heavy
and It is expected that by this even
ing that nearly the whole registra-
ton win have been voted. Occur

had cast over 1000 votes. The regis
tration was 1104. Sherman had cast

that nearly the full registration will

feared that many voters in some Of
