ISLANDERS were too interested on-look-
ers to think of the business of count

The casise of the row occurred
shortly after the opening of the polls.
Elfego c. Garcia, republican candi-
date for constable, challenged a mans
right to vote when he approached the
polls, asserting that he was not res
ident of the precinct. Republicans as
serted, Ofimiano Gutierrez, a demo-
crat, struck him. They said Garcia
was sitting ON the hood of motor
car at the time. Max Gutierrez, a
brother of Ofimiano, who, however,
is a republican, then approached
Ofimiano and, according to bystand-
ers' accounts, the democratic brother
walloped him on the head using
cane. The blow did not drop Max
Partisans of the two factions rushed
into the fight and the fighting be-
came general. No one was seriously
injured
There were several deputy sheriffs

for justice Of the peace in the Twelfth

any rate the vote polled by him

his opponent. returning him to the
office by the Enthusiastically decisive
majority of 2s4 votes.
The vote in the Twelfth, however,
was not heavy, totalling 430--less
than that cast two years ago when
Mcclellan and Burg opposed each
other for the first time. OF this
number, Judge Mcclellan received
295 and Burg 46 votes, making the
formers majority 2S4
The temperature, which dropped
below its average for the last week,
probably had an Influence on the size
of the vote.
1t led to the only enlivening INCL
dent of the day in the precinct. A
worker for Burg in the Second dis
trict entered the polls, finding it cold
outside. Shortly afterward a voter
entering, asked for ballot and Burg
supporters said the worker. knowing
he intended to vote for the republic
can candidate, offered him one. They
said Mcclellan grasped the workers
collar and ordered him to leave the
room. Mcclellan evidently looked
upon the workers act as electioneer-
ing inside the polls.
The vote was heaviest in the Sec
ond district which includes that part
of the precinct west of Second street
In that district the vote for McCleI-
Ian was 295 and that for Burg was
