The City Election.

Following the close vote in the mu-
nicipal election here last week there
we're afloat many rumors as to deals,
black deals and counter deals. But to
date there have been no casualties.
After the election the two candidates
for mayor, C. W. Crawford and E. A.
Maddox, got together and framed an
agreement by which both had their
names taken from the run-off election
list and tie latter who would hold over
under the charter, agreed to resign the
Office of mayor as soon as the new board
is sworn in. This removes the mayor
atty races from the run.off, There
were two Of the aldermanic candidates
who received the same vote and so
tied, H. P. Stainback and C. A. Oliver.
Rumors had it for several days that
after the mayoralty candidates had
withdrawn from the run-oif these al
dermanic candidates would withdraw
and save the necessity of a second cleo
tion and save the expense of $25 or $50
which it costs the city to hold an cleo
tion. But when the election commits
sioners met to canvass the returns no
agreement between Stainback and Oil
yer had been reached and when seen
both stated that they would not with
draw but wanted the run off. This
was ordered by the commissioners and
will be held tomorrow, Saturday, to
settle which will be an alderman for
the next two years.
The throwing out by the judges Of
three Summers votes for RecorderRave
the office to Hendon on the face of the
returns, altho election officers who held
the election say that Summers actually
received "a majority of two votes, If
they had been counted as cast.
The five aldermen elected last week
are C. r. Wirwa. w. H. Leach Sr.,
E. I. Henley, W. E. Narremore and. j.
w. Morrison, and when the additional
aldermen is chosen in the run-off elec.
tion tomorrow 1t will be up to ,the six
to name mayor for the next two
years. The new board organizes at the
June meeting. which the charter states
must .be held on the first Thursday
night of the month. At the same time
the board will elect treasurer and
marshal for the two year term.
