Of election had been done accurately
and in good faith, but the question
will be decided only when the ballots
objected to by each side are finally
passed upon at the close of the con-
test.
The votes of precinct five and six
IL Reno were counted yesterday and
iorty-two objections in all were total
ed by Ferrel with sixty by Burke.
The skip from the first precinct to
the fifth was surprise. 1t was on
request of counsel for Burke, who
apparently desired to examine first
those precincts in which majority
was given Ferrel.
1t was understood last night that
the next precinct to be examined will
be the eighth and then the tenth in
Reno and then the Verdi precinct.
1t was remarked yesterday that the
ballots of the sixth precinct had been
unusually we'll counted by the judges
