With Figures

A recount of the ballots cast IN the

determined by the board of election
commissioners a plurality OF 4 Votes
for Frank W. Huddleson Of Herndon
over. his nearest competitor, Claude
E. Wiley, of Fairfax, is asked Tor IN
a former complaint, of contest illed
with County Clerk Richardson on
Thursday. Notice of contest was serv-
ed the same day on Mr.. Huddleson by
Sheriff Allison. The complaint IS
signed as required by law by fifteen
or more qualified voters and sets up
as a matter of form certain alleged
Irregularities the returns and IN the
ballots, which it is believed may afiec\
the count of the votes. 1t IS stated.
however, that no charges OF fraud
are made against any election officer
or against any candidate.
Mr.. Wiley, in a statement to The
! Fairfax Observer, said that he filed
| the complaint to protect his own
!! rights, being DESTROYS. of recount Of
the ballots to satisfy himself OF the
accuracy of the returns and being un-
able to secure recount in any other
way than by instituting contest. eff
the recount shows fair and square
majority for Huddleson," Mr.. Wiley
explained, "then that. ends the matter
! right there, so far as am concern

ordering a new election or appointing
a new officer in the event Of failure
to elect. Though the votes at a pri-
mary are at stake in this contest. the
primary law provides that the regu-
lar election statutes shall govern.
Mr.. Wiley's action was foreshadow-
ed by the application to Judge Thorn

an order allowing him to inspect the
ballots and; to make notes and mem-
oranda thereon, Judge Thornton, hos.

Why Our Fur Sale Is Two Weeks
Later Than Formerly

Because in past seasons many of our patrons have
made known to their desire to participate in the sae
but owing to being away from the city during the en-
tire month of August they could not make selections
hence we decide to hold it later By doing will be
able to continue it until all will have the opportunity of
sharing in the advantages offered.
REASONS FOR BUYING FURS NOW
We have been successful in securing for this sale furs
that are in greatest demand at lower prices than have
ever been possible We state without fear of con-
tradicton that furs are reasonably priced than in
many seasons Add to this reasonable pricing the 20
ito 80 l3 per reduction making during this
sale and the reason for buying easily be seen.

in st. Mary's school in preparation
for the opening on Sept 10. The
class-rooms present bright and cheer
full appearance and bespeak a hearty
welcome to the fortunate pupils who
will occupy them for the coming term.
Parents and guardians will kindly see
to it that the children be on hand the
very first day. Glasses must be form
ed, pupils assigned their places, and
school work mapped out. Late corners
cause a great deal of confusion and
not unfrequently retard the progress

On the opening day, the children
will assemble in time for the eight
o'clock Mass, to invoke the Divine
blessing on their studies for the COM
ing year.

TARRED MACADAM
NOT EXPENSIVE AS SLATED.
Mayor Figures Only An Annual Ex-
pense Of About a Cent and a
Quarter On Tax Rate is Re-

OudAAGI ON IA NuAS - NC
quired.
Though there has been some appre.
hension on the part of taxpayers in
Annapolis that the tarred macadam
were proving costly on account of the
necessity of new top dressing about
every three years, Mayer James F.
Strange has figured out that only an
annual expense of about a cent and
a quarter on the tax rate is required.
All the streets in Annapolis can be
given new top dressing for about
$500. AS this is required but once
in three years, the annual expendi-
ture is about $500, which is raised
cent and a quarter on the hundred
dollars with the present basis.
1t will be remembered that with
this new top dressing of stone and tar
preparation, the street is made some
what better than new, as it is made
more solid with each treatment, so
that it becomes practically everlast-
ing. Every other type of street must
be renewed some time. The life of
vitrified brick is supposed to be forty
years, but from api earances the pave
ment on West st. will not last that
long With the comparatively small eX-
pense for the new top dressing every
three years, tarred macadam will never
wear out
