YELLOW BALLOTS WERE
 USED IN WATERFORD.
Not GEnoushssE Official Ones to Go
 Around, the Reason.

In Waterford Tuesday a peculiar condition arose by which there was not enough of official ballots to serve the voters, so sample ballots were used.
 It seems that enough official ballots were sent to the town, but that in the distribution of them too many were sent to the north district, and not enough left in the south part of the town. In the latter section demand was made for the ballots when it was found that they could not be supplied.
 A. messenger was hustled off to the north district and while he was absent seven 1ofrthe sample ballots were cast.
 Whether anyone will question the legality of the ballot is not known, but it is believed that as the vote would not alter the result that it will be al- lowed to stand.
