Aberdeen Up in
Air Over Result of
Recent Election
None Of Candidates for Commissioners
Has Majority and Officials in
Doubt as to Next Step.

ABERDEEN, S. D.. April 21.-(SpecialD D.
Aberdeen people are up in the air over
their municipal election. The commission
plan law, passed by the last Legislature,
provides that where candidate for any
office fails to receive a majority of the
election a secondary election shall be held
where the two highest candidates for each
office shall be placed on the ballot. There
were four commissioners to be elected, and
none Of the candidates received majority.
Now the authorities cannot DECIDE whether
the highest eight candidates shall compete
for the commissionerships, and the sec
ondary election decide H. or II successive
elections shall be held until the candidates
are gradually eliminated until four shall
finally receive a majority of the votes.
1t Is probable that the question will be
carried to the supreme court for a decision,
as the law is indefinite, the legislators APP
parenty having in mind when the law was
passed only those towns where the COM
mission form is already in operation, where
only one commissioner is elected annually.
1t is reported the present city council
Will take steps toward solving the problem
by canvassing the returns and then refus-
ing to declare any candidate for mayor
or commissioner elected, and refusing to
call the secondary election next Tuesday.
If this action is taken, It will be up to the
supporters of the commission plan or the
candidates who led in the first election to
take the matter into the courts by applying
for a writ of mandamus to compel the
council to act. In the meantime the pres
ent city government will retain office.
The school election, the election for NUM-
cipal Judge, the vote in favor of licensing
saloons and the sewer bonds election will
not be affected by the action of the coun-
ell or the decision Of the courts. whatever
they may be.
