the result of an election held early

The unfavorable weather of the
winter and frequent rains in the
early spring so delayed the work
that not until Monday was the
work on the plant completed. The
streets were all lighted Mon
day night for the first time.
1t appears now that the plant will
prove to be entirely satisfactory.
