CONFUSION COMES AS RESULT
Continued from Page One.D

-
From all portions of the county
come reports and claims of illegal
voting and it may be possible that
new elections will have to be held in
several districts. County Superin-
tendent Seymour is referring all in
.quirers to the attorney general 5
opinion, but new phases of the mat
ter are daily presenting themselves
which apparently throw a different
light on some of the questions.
In the meantime State Sunerin-
tendent Alderman has been appealed
to and 1t Is expected that a fun and
exhaustive report OF opinion will be
received which will hel p to untangIe
the confusion and set the different
districts on the right track.

ho-Oregon Light & Power company.
Traction company.
When it is said that this deal runs
we'll up into the millions the state
ment will be taken by those familiar
with the properties to be conserva-
tive, and just what Is back OF it can
only be surmised. There are those
who look upon it as a definite move
in great war for control of this sec
ton between the Hartman interests
and the James ]. Hill interests, war
in which electrical power is to cut an
important figure. This is regarded
as all the more significant in the light
OF the important part that electricity
is coming to play in the solution Of
the transportation problems of the
day, especially In the west where wa
ter power is SO plentiful and coal so
dear.
There is nothing foreign to the
general Hartman policy in the pur-
chase of traction interests such as
those in this city and the country i'm
mediately surrounding. 1t Is pointed
out that In Salt Lake the Hartman
interests purchased the street car
systems that were badly run down
and have built up traction system
there that is the pride of the commun-
ity. In connection with this a pleas
ure resort, Wandamere, in the edge
OF the town, has been made one of the
beauty spots Of Utah.
In line with this reported purchase
OF all the power and traction inter-
ests of this section and the unification
of all these interests under one gen
eral system special Significance was
attached Monday to the report that
the Beaver River and the Idaho-Ore
gon Power companies had combined
This report proved to be premature
1t was based on the connection of the
high tension power lines of the two
companies in this city for the trans
fer of power from one to the other.
But the local managers of both COM
panies fatty denied that this meant
consolidation of any kind.
1t was explained that the Idaho
Oregon company found itself short
OF power when unusual demands were
made upon 1t because of the improve
mepts going on at the Swan Falls
plant on the Snake river; and that
as the Beaver River company had a
surplus Of power ready for delivery It
was the most natural thing in the
world for the one to purchase power
of the other.
o. q. F. Markhus, general manager
Of the 1daho-Oregon Light & Power
company, gave out the following state
ment in relation to the reported con-
solidation:
"The reason for this rumor, is
simply from the fact that we find
ourselves short of power at the pres
ent time and without sufficient re-
serve to meet the rapidly growing
demands of the market. We have for
several months been hard at work at
Swan Falls tearing out the old orig
