Z The city council held an adjourned
session last evening at the city hall, at
which time it was expected to let the
contract for a water softening plant to
be installed at the power house. The
water from the deep well is so full of
chemicals injurious to boilers that the
city fathers have decided to soften the
water, and while the expense of i'm
stallation of a plant for this purpose
win be considerable, it. will save money
in the, long run on boiler repairs and
at the same time insure better service.
Bids were received by the council but
after going through them it was decid.
ed to postpone action until factory rep.
resentatives could come and go into
the proposition more fully. At the
meeting last evening the council APP.

red by the fact that many young men
from their town fell in a manner to
win them special distinction. 1t will be
recalled that Merle Hays, of Glidden,
was one of the first men to be reported
killed after the United States troops
landed. Last week a monument was
placed over the grave at Glidden of
Joy w. Dillavou, a volunteer, also a
victim of the war. Joy helped carry
Hays back from the front. He was one
of group of eight who went in, of
whom four returned and two of these
were badly wounded. Dllavou was
killed at the battle of the Marine, July
10, 1918. belonging to COL 10Th regi.
ment of infantry, First division. There
was an immense crowd of people at
Glidden on October gath when the mon

by Glenn G.. Haynes, of Mason City,
who by the way was elected auditor of

The board of supervisors on Tues
day started the official canvass of the
vote of the general election held on
Tuesday of last week and already have
found mistakes which, if correct, mean
that McCracken, of Manila, republican
candidate for member of the board of
supervisors for the 1921 term, is de.
feated and VIM. Eggers. democrat,
present member of the board, is reflect
ed to office by ma jority OF votes.
1t seems that the mistake occurred
in the returns from Stockholm town.
ship The outside envelope filled out
by the election board in this precinct
gave Eggers AZ and McCracken 142,
while in the book on the inside OF the
envelope Eggers' vote was put down
as 62 and McCracken 1873, a difference
these votes gives him a majority over
the republican candidate of in the
county.
Clerk J. w. Monaghan has been
credited with four additional votes, a
mistake having been made in the re-
turns from Denison township which
brings his majority over Sykes, the re-
publican candidate, UP to, II votes.
The board of supervisors have not as
yet completed the canvass and they
will carefully recheck all the returns
from every precinct to catch all dis
crepancies.
1t is not at all improbable that mis-.
takes occur in filling out the envelopes
by judges of election. 1t has been sug-
gested that the same mistakes might
occur in filling out the election book
and it might require checking up the
machines to get at the correct results.
