Runors Arc Rife.
At this stage Of the campaign it Is

the other candidate telling anyone
how many votes she has. No one will
know the total number Of votes until
after the final coun is made.
Votes Not Transferable.
Under no circumstances is it pos
sible for a contestant to transfer her
votes to another contestant.

didates may take advantage Of such
conditions We have arranged to ac-
cept and issue ballots according to
the amount paid and will hold the
