hundred or more citizens oi tn0se
townships who voted at Yorkville,

between the candidates for magistrate
| in York township, and the county eX-
| ecutiyr committee being of opinion
that this is irregular and wrong has
ordered that i'm the second primary
next Tuesday the magisterial race
| shall he under the direction or sep
arate set of managers, and that tne
voting shall he done on separate TICK
cts containing only the names of the
two candidates to be voted for.
