McEwan by 79 from the Fitth. Thus will all of the non-partisan nominees, nomi-nees, whom the whole people chose, be and constitute Provo's next boaid of education. All day there were rumors oi factional fac-tional opposition in the Second ward, it being said that the friends of Charles DeMoisy were determined to re turn him to the board. This was talk only. Mr, John met with no opposition. His name was the only" one voted in that ward. Rumors were thick and numerous that Hardy was being badly knifed m the Third, out the returns show that tkese were only rumors. Not one scratched ticket was voted. In the fourth ward is where the fight was. The bastard ticket headed "republican', and bearing the name of John E. Buoth was voted by 59 people, but 78 others voted the regular regu-lar ticket and E. A. Wilson, the people's peo-ple's choice, was elected. The ward was well worked and buggies ran all day. Those who worked for thi3 glorious glor-ious result have occasion to feel well today. Booth and his clique should feel conEcious stricken. In the First and Fifth all was serenity. seren-ity. Glazier from the First didn't poll as high a vote as he should have polled, but the weather was very bad. Joe Mac Is a meet popular man and has many warm and attached friends, seventy-nine of them plowed through the storm and cast their little ballots for him, while he himself was at work upon up-on hia farm up on the bench. |
