of it's opponent and makes the claim
that they find exactly what is COM
planned Of. The statement is chal-
lenged on the grounds of fraud by
duplicates. and the proponents in pre-
pairing a bill of objections to the 391
Withdrawals filed, claim to have found
| two repeaters or duplicates. The
statement is challenged on the
grounds of forgery on account Of many
signatures being obtained by mark,
still in going over the withdrawals the
| board found the same thing to exist.
| In an instance that came to light dur.
| ing the canvass this morning one per.
sons withdrawal was by mark and the
| aftiant was also by mark-neither the
person withdrawing nor the man who
secured and witnessed the withdrawal
knowing how to sign his name, both
marking by cross.
Thus far the progress has been
quite slow in the canvass, and less
than 200 names were gone through in
the Withdrawals canvasseu by the
board since beginning yesterday
afternoon about 3 o'clock. At this
rate the canvass will continue at least
another day. An odd feature de-
veloped in the withdra walls filed this
morning when it was discovered that
three persons who have been engaged
in some manner in the liquor business
appeared by their names as with
drawing their consent. One of these
was q former saloon keeper, one re-
cent bartender and the third porter
in a saloon.

for proponents and contestants, were
gathered about the table and formed
a center Of attraction to the large
crowd that was assembled about the

gathered at one end Of the table, while
Attorneys J. j. Smith, w. H. G.
Jaques and 10 R. Jaques were at the
other end. Each element presented its
side of the matter to the board, the
proponents claiming the petition to

an excess or majority of 406 names.
The contestants through Attorney |
