THE RECALL AND ITO RESUL9.

On Thursday there was held specia
election on the proposition of the re
call of W. S. Atkins, Councilman and
Superintendent Of the Streets and Parks
OF the City of Shreveport.
The election was ordered by ress
luton of the City Council on the pc
tition of qualified voters, as required
by law, andt in accordance with the
stipuIations Of the Legislature providing
the government by Commission for the
City Of Shreveport.
Preceding the election there was an
attempt directed towards involving the
integrity of the system Of government
by commission as an ISSUE but this. as
well as the revival Of the saloon, as a
disturbing factor, fortunately aborted,
and on the dav Of the election the con-
test had been narrowed down to a choice
of men.
The result Of the vote as officially
canvassed and promulgated by the
Council stands: Geo. Epple, 895; w. S.
Atkins, $50 and Horace Noonan, Ia.
In accordance with the provisions of
the Recall, in any removal election, the
candidate receiving the highest number
of votes shall be declared elected, and
therefore, Geo. Epple became the sue
cessor of Mr.. Atkins on the narrow mar
gin of 9 votes.
DURING the progress of the election,
Commissioner Atkins and his friends,
were active and confident in their an
tieipation of Epple's defeat by from
one hundred and fifty to two hundred
votes. but in thier reckoning thew were
misled nv the silent vote.
IT NAV be said that Epple and his
friends were equally sanguine and did
not relax their efforts until the end and
exnac+ed q oreater vote es mated at
from seventv-five 70 one hundred over
Atkins
At this election. Noonan DEVELOPED
a greater vote than it had been esti-
mated he would receive and had he not
beep candidate the vote nolled for him
would nAbablv have been cast for At
kins and Epple,
In its result the election was a sur
prise and is keen disappointment to
Mr. Atkins who has accented his defeat
