(If course, it wilt be observed under the provisions of the act, none oj these items of expense will he neceasaiy, if St. Helens receives a ma jority oj the votes i-a-t, us in that case no removal is necessary, u other words, if the majority of the voters say by their' ballot that they do not desire I. ri mor al of the county scat liom Si.
