Light Vote IS CAST
IN LOCAL ELECTION
Results Of Commission, Police

Cd Early Tonight

Bismarck's biennial city election
brought few persons to the polls Tues
A check at 2 p. M, showed that only
lott votes had been cast. This Is
only one-sixth Of the city's registered
voting population and slightly more
than half the number which had
voted at the same time In the city
election two years ago. The poll at
2 p. m.. In the 1888 election showed
2.Oo2 ballots cast.
The fact that only two places were
being contested contributed to the
apathy. A three-way race for two
places on the city commission and q
five-mAn contest for the office Of
police court Judge were the only
items In controversy.
It Is expected that the results viii
Be available at the city hall within
. short time after the polls close ct
