Property damage has been estimated to have

regard that estimate as being very conservative,

The city was quickly thrown under military
control and soldiers are patroling the streets.
Thousands of people engaged in the work of
rescue and helping to relieve the widespread suf-

tastrophe.
Lines of communications are badly democrat

TUESDAY. JUNE IA, 1921
SCATTERED VOTE A WASTED wore.

TT is interesting TO note that the four members OF the
old guard in the school election Of last Saturday
which definitely represents the old policy and old
principles received total aggregate vote OF about
$4,000 whereas the sixteen VINO represented, more
or less views opposed to the old guard practices and
stood for more progressive and modern methods OF adj
ministraton received total vote on about 10000, or
three times much.
nfle many voters only voted for three persons,
and some voters may voted for the old guard plus
some OF the other candidates yet taking 1t by and large,
the above information would indicate that about seventy
i've per cent Of the public sentiment that expressed itself
at the polls really in favor OF modern school ad-
minsiraton compared with the old practices
This situation shows the effect OF scattered vote as
compared with the concentrated vote. II is certain that
II this seventyhve per cent Of public sentiment had con-
centrated its support back OF candidates there Of
course would have been elected stronger board with
no tnge OF reaconsm present. and such united board
uDquestonably could be effective and out the
wishes OF the citizens
IT drives home the principle that viii apply both IN
future school elections as we'll elections for city
government under Commission Manager form, that the
citizens must to rally around definite ticket made
up OF people who represent certain principles, otherwise
the seventy-nve per cent public sentiment for
principle readily can be defeated.
IT, for instance Kersey the old guard candidate in M
vote last saturday had been strong in popular rega
by certain group as Rommel and Palmer. then the ok
guard today would be in the majority in the board
with practically seyentynye per cent OF public sentmen
in favor OF opposing principles.
We hope the Wilmington electorate viii learn from las
Saturdays election the value Of concentrated vote ant
recognize the truth OF the political principle that scat
tered vote is wasted vote.
