Dunn Sets Fire to Ballot;
Stands Guard Against
Newspaper Men.

Several torn pieces of paper,
burning in a cuspidor and guarded
by Councilman Paul Dunn, today
held the secret of what member of
the @. o. Dodson, r publican county
faction committed political treason.
This member voted for a George
v. Coffin faction candidate to fill
the vacancy created by the resigna-
ton of John E. Shearer, who now is
a county commissioner.
The Coffin faction won control of
the council by today's vote.
Thomas E. Hamlyn of Acton, oper-
ator of canning factory. was
named to succeed Shearer. Hamlyn
was nominated by DR.. Soils j. Run
nells. member of the Coffin group.
The voting was by secret ballot
and it only took one to put Hamlyn
in. over Frank Holmes, retired In
dianapolis dentist, nominated by
Frank Cones of the Dodson group.
Drops Ballots in Cuspidor
Before the voting started, the lists
held three Dodson men opposed by
three Coffin men.
Each councilman wrote his ballot
on slip of paper and handed it to
County Auditor Harry Dunn. Dunn
called them off-four to two. Cones
and Grant Moore, another Dodson
support, blinked and looked at each
other. The Coffin group settled back
with smiles and sighs.
Harry Dunn handed the ballots to-
President George NJ. Montgomery
who returned them to him. Dunn
tore them in two and dropped them
into cuspidor by his chair.
Montgomery then was asked by a
reporter who cast the deciding ball
lot. He admitted he, Paul Dunn
and Runnells had voted for Ham
lyn but was uncomnlurlicative on
the fourth voter.

from examining the contests of the

Cones still was bewildered.
The only other member of the
Dodson faction who voted is James

the council chamber hurriedly.
With Hamlyn's vote the Coffin
members will have five votes,
enough to GUST Moore, who is un-

they desire. Another vote obtained
