man of Town of
Vaughn.

fought as any ever held in Hurley
and that there was a great deal OF
interest manifest was shown bv the
large vote polled, there being a
total of ST. votes cast, which. is
somewhat more than the total OF
votes cast last year. The weather
was disagreeable but this did not
deter the followers of the various
candidates from going to the polls.
The fight for chairman of the
board of supervisors eliminated in
a decided victory for Lanbrix, who
won out over Bonino by majority
OF 50 votes. The entire Lambrix
slate with the exception of the
constables received a majority of
votes. The closest contest was that
for clerk, only six votes separating
the winner from the loser.
| At the annual town meeting pre-
ceding the opening of the polls in
the afternoon a statement of town
affairs was read. The reports of
the clerk and treasurer were
eagerly listened to and showed the
town affairs to be in the best of CON
dition, there being a cash balance
of S17,757.80 on April 1st. One
of the most important features of
the meeting was the passing of a
Nresolution that there be no lew
made for town expenses the COM
ing year, which resolution was un-
animouslypassed upon recommend
alton of the town board. The paw
ing of Silver street was given some
thought and attention and the
board recommended that this work
be~done the coming summer, it be-
ing the intention to pave Silver
street from the Northwestern depot
to the river, a total of FIVE blocks.
Chairman Lambrix has made in
quiries as to the cost of the vari-
ons kinds of paving and presented
to the voters present what he had
learned by corresponding with cit
ieswhere paved streets are in vogue.
The estimated cost of suitable paw
ing for this street is figured at S3, =
900 per block, and it is thought
that with the funds now on hand
and the money which will come in
during the year that this work can
be carried out without additional
levy.
