Vote Count Rapid

The new system of counting ballots
proved TO be n success in the cleo
ton. The scheme to keep the ballots
counted up all day long allowed the
people to have the results definitely
on the main issues and the candidates
before 10 O'Clock. Two years ago
1t was well toward noon the second
day before the results were certain.
The Fourth ward candidates were
first in. followed quickly by the First
ward results on both candidates and
issues. This ward was the first to
finish. The East Third ward, with
the largest vote in the city, finished
next. 1t was about midnight when
the West Third sent in final results
and $3.50 a. m. when the Second
appeared.
The Second ward counting officials

M|LLDALE HAD
JOKER FOR VETS

One of the big surprises of the
wet and dry end of the election was
the action of the Fourth ward in
joining the ranks of the drys. By
the acquisition of the Milldale sub
division, the wet advocates declared
that they had enough votes to run
the Fourth's wet margin up to 100
or more. IL went 9 wet in 1911. and
was expected to be still wetter this
year. On the contrary the Fourth
slid into the dry camp by the un-
heard of majority of / 3 votes.
The drys cut down the First wards
wet lead by more than 20 this year.
and gained in the East Third ward
The Second ward went wet by an in
creased majority and the West Third
ward showed a gain for the vets.
In the whole town the vote was
200 less than two years ago, while
the dry majority was cut down by
but 4 votes. This shows conclusive
ly that there has been no general wea-
kening in the strength of the drys.
1t might be said in passing that
there were three distinct wet and dry
propositions introduced. However.
the vital and prominent proposition
was the statutory question of revers-
ing the city's vote on the saloon aues-
tion. The dry majority on this was
349 or Ia less than in 1911.
Milldale proved itself to be decid-
edly dry by its action in yesterdays
election.
