printed only the name of Mr.. Little
john appears in printed form on the
ballot and IL was announced that it
would be necessary for the voter who
wanted to vote for Mr.. Desch to
scratch out the name of Mr.. Little
john and write in the name of Mr..
Desch.
Today the friends of each man
have been exceedingly active. In fact
it has been one of the most spirited
as well as the briefest school contest
ever held here.
Much electioneering was done
through the day and this afternoon
many spirited arguments between
men on opposing sides have been
heard.
The great majority of the pupils of
the high school, realizing that the
enemies of Prof, E. e. Cole, principal
of the high school, who had lined up
to defeat Moses T. Hale for re-elec-
tion, had lined up to encompass the
defeat of Mr.. Desch. have been very
active today in behalf of the candi-
dacy of Mr.. Desch. The high school
boys and girls, anxious to see any
effort to discredit their principal de-
feated. have enthusiastically and very
effectively worked in behalf of Mr.
Desch's candidacy. II will be re-
membered that a few days prior TO
the withdrawal of MIR. Hale from the
race the high school students of their
own accord, formed an organization
looking toward a vigorous and thor
ough boosting campaign in the inter
est of the candidacy of Mr.. Hale and
now, with the withdrawal of Mr.. Hale
and the entrance of Mr.. Desch into
the race. the high school students
have exerted themselves to bring
about the election of Mr.. Desch.
The election of Mr. Desch or Mr.
Littlejohn will in no way effect the
present policy of the school for
year at least but it is generally un-
derstood that those persons who have
grievances against Prof. Cole are
supporting Mr.. Littlejohn.
The election is being held this af
ternoon in the Lowell school build
ing.
The polls were opened at o'clock
and will close at o'clock. A pretty
heavy vote is being polled and many
vehicles are being used in taking
voters to the polls.
The result is very doubtful.
At noon about fifty high school
boys made tour of the business por-
tion of the city cheering for Desch.
The students of the high school
shortly after noon issued the follow
ing statement in circular form
Voters. Today is school election
for the election of one director for
five years. We. the students of the
high school endorse Mr.. C. s. Desch
because he stands for retention of
Prof Cole as principal of the high
school while Mr.. Littleiohn has
pledged himself to Mr.. Coles re

Early in the afternoon a decidedly
sensational circular was pat out by
some of the voters who disappToyed
of the fight, declared TO be OF a vic
ious nature, started against Mr.. Hale
prior to his retirement from the race
and who also wanted to make public
reasons that these voters declare are
behind the fight on Mr. Desch. The
text of this circular follows:
