VOTE RECORD ESTABLISHED

-Minot, N. D., Jan. 2S.-tF-By q
margin of two votes, Minot citizens ut
q special election Tuesday favored
granting Of a franchise to the Mon
tana-D Dakota Power company to dis
tribute natural gas here.
The vote was 3,142 for and $40
against. The total vote set a new
high mark for elections here, exceed
ing the June, 1880, primary by 1859.
The city commission probably will
meet Feb. 2 to approve the figures.
Because Of the closeness Of the
vote, figures on the poll books were
checked twice.
While no announcement has been
made by interests opposing the
granting Of the natural gas franchise,
indications are the elections outcome
will be contested when the city COM
mission canvasses the vote, probably
next Tuesday.
From the time the polls opened at
9 q. m. until they closed at Z p. m.
there was a steady stream Of voters,
Fleets Of cars representing the op-
posing interests added to the number
Of voters by circulating through the
residential districts urging citizens to
go to the polls.
The special election was the out
growth Of the refusal by the city
commission, divided three to two, to
grant q franchise to the Montana
Dakota Power company. The com.
mission voted to postpone action I'm.
til next May 81.
Boon after the postponement wa.
ordered petitions were circulated te
which sufficient signatures were OBJ
tanned to require calling an election to
vote Oh the question Of the passage OF
the franchise.
