And by tnat time, we presume, there will be many changes, as. the vote Is in Its very Infancy at present, with six weeks, and a little more, to run. . Many novel expedients are being resorted to by the voungsters to gain votes, some of which would do credit to old and astute politician. Some of these metnods would both Interest and amuse the general public, but as we feel It would not be fair to file original young schemer, all fair methods being allowable and canvassing in ihe store for votes barred, we shall defer their telling until after the contest is closed. Result of voting will be published In Monday and Thursday evening's papers, and Tuesday and Friday morning papers, only the names of the first 20 be ing mentioned, as we now have over 5D0 names on the books, and It would use up over four solid columns of the paper to print them alL.
