KENMARE SCHOOL ELECTION
WAS VERY SPIRITED
David Clark and Nels Nelson Defeat
Godfrey Engdahl and Rev. A. E.
Hall for Treas. and Director.

Kenmare, June 6.-The votes cast
by the women really decided the lively
school election held in this city yes
terday. Despite steady downpour
Of rain the women trudged to the polls
all afternoon and it is conceded today
that in the main they were responsible
for the victory won by David Clark, Jr.,
and Nels Nelson, who were returned
to the offices of School Treasurer and
Director, respectively.
Not only did the women in town
vote, but the women living in the
countryside comprising the school dis
trict, drove many miles to town to
take part.
Kenmare political fights, always
spirited, were given a new intent this
year when Rev. A. E. Hall, Presby-
terrain minister, entered the race for
school director against Mr.. Nelson.
He waged g. house to house campaign
and made a special appeal to the wo-
men, but apparently in vain, for the
result showed that he only received
1S4 votes to 3S9 for Mr.. Nelson.
David Clark, Jr., banker, was op-
posed by Godfrey Engdahi, another
banker, for the office of Treasurer. Mr..
Clark received the highest vote of the
day, the totals showing 39S voted for
him to 172 cast for Engdahl.
The fight was one of the bitterest
waged here in years. Not only were
Clark and Nelson given the support Of
the women, but such men as State Ser
ator J. A. Englund, Representative
James H. Sinclair, County Commits
sioner ] NJ. Robe, Mayor Lewis, took
their coats off and waded in to sup
port the men who won.

ut is only the rats that are doing
the damage to cars and as practically
no complaints have been made to the
department of automobiles being
scratched or otherwise injured we have
not kept a strict watch on them, said
Chief Of Police Ben Phillips this morn
ing. "While the police department
cannot maintain close guard over all
cars which are lined up in the bust
ness section, we will do our best to
prevent damage.
Other city officials state that the
boys who are believed to be guilty Of
most of the offenses mentioned are
children of loose character. It has
been suggested that they be sent to
school but as most of the offenses are
said to be committed at night and
there are no night schools the only
relief offered to automobile owners is
that furnished by vigilant officers who
henceforth will rigtdly prosecute this
law.
