impossible odds. but whore he has
given no quarter. he has asked none

urwillingness to bear oppression MS
he understood 1t. The Indian has
had great soul and set a high ex-
ample to The world as a lover of free

and of fidelity. His commercial
weakness in despising property has
been rude viltue. He has not been

VILLAGE ELECTION
WAS VERY QUIET
No Fight on any Part of
Ticket and only PIP
Votes Cast.
ONLY EIGHT WOMEN VOTED
Not Much Enthusiasm Shown by Fair
Sex. Both Franchises Carried
Without Amy Opposition.

Last Monday saw one of the quetest
elections ever held iD the village of Paw
Paw. There was no particular strife on
any part of the ticket, and no effort was
made by either the republican or citizens
committee to get the vote out. AS a
result the lightest vote was polled that
has been recorded in years.
The en- tire republican ticket was elect
ed with the exception of clerk aud treas
urer. William Jason for clerk on the
citizens ticket had no opposition and
received 80 votes. William Killefer for
treasurer on the same ticket was elected
by majority of 62, be receiving l6O
votes and w. V. Hall, nominee on the
republican ticket, 90 votes. John Mutch-
Ter, candidate for president on the re-
publican ticket, had 90 opposition and
received la votes. Likewise with Jerome
&. Warner for assessor, who received l64
votes
dhe vote on trustees was as follows:
Republican, A. Whitman l3l. Fred
r. Bassett l27, VIM. G.. Flock l25.
Ctizens'-Charles Lake ll3, Dwight
@. Watson Ill, Charles A. Norwood lO6.
As was anticipated there was practi-
cally no opposition to the electric fran
chises. The vote on the Plumb fran
chise was 26l Yes" mo" and on the
Downer franchise 265 YES" No"
The whole number of votes poled. at
the election was 272. 1t was something
of surprise that so small number of
women avaiied themselves of the oppor-
tunity to vote. There were q women
registered and only eight of this number
could get up the courage TO go to the
polls. Mrs. Mary V. Murdoch has the
honor or being the first woman in Paw
Paw to cast ballot at the polls in
public election. Mrs. Clara V. Rennie
was the second.
