VERY MILD BATTLE
OF THE BALLOTS
Full Vote for All Offices In Oroyille
Precincts ut Primary Election
Held Tuesday.

The primary election held Tuesday
F.! was one OF the tamest affairs in the
way OF an election that has been held
in Oroville for many years. There
were no workers and votes filtered in
to the polls at long intervals during
the day. In the first place the regis
tration was very light prior to cleo
tion and hardly more than so per
| cent OF the registered voters took
the trouble to cast ballots. There
were no important contests and hence
nothing to create an excitement. In
some instances there was the usual
freak voting by some electors who do
not appreciate the right of franchise.
In Precinct No. l one lone Farmer
Labor ballot was cast, the only one
that was turned in. from three pre-
cincts. Also in the same precinct
some voter who considers voting
joke wrote in the names of the cleo
tion board for several of the offices.
The following is the vote of the three
Oroville precincts:
