ELECTION RLUNDERs

The primary election passed of
quietly in this town. There was g
good vote out, a total Of SIG ballots
being cast in this, the Sixth district.
An unfortunate occurrence was the
bad blunder of the election officials
in what may be designated as the
second precinct voters from N tc
Z,-where through failure of the
clerk to put his initials on the ballot
and oversight of the judge to detect
the error, the first As voters were de
prived of their vote, as these ballots
according to the law, could not be
counted, and were thrown out.
A checking up of the names OF
those who had voted showed that
"a were democratic votes and IA
republican.
On top-of this comes the report
from the Fourth district, that the
entire vote cast there was thrown
out through error of bungling elec-
ton officials. The report is that
the ballots were not property marked
by the clerk, as required by the law,
and could not be counted. Natur-
ally much after-election bitterness
is being given free expression.

PRIMARY ELECTION

The throwing out of votes in the
Fourth and Sixth Districts, due to

SLANT DEATH OF WORKMAN

While at work on the new electric
line at Perryville on Thursday after
noon of last week Arnold Laird,
aged rs years, of Elkton, was elec-
trocuted. He and Charles Purnell,
