RECORD VOTE IS CAST FOR SCHOOL BOARD RECALL MOVE SHOWS SLIGHT RESULT. TAX MEASURES CARRY J. I', Keyes. Carl A. Johnson anil It. . Sawyer Itc-elcctel to Direc torships by I.nrtfe Majority's Hicks' Support Small. The most largely attended school election In the history of Bend ended last night when J. P. Keyes was named for a three-year directorship on the school board and Carl A. Johnson and R. W. Sawyer for one year terms, all being elected by sub stantial majorities. The measure providing that the increase of the tax levied in the district for 1919 be more than 6 per cent, in excess of the amount levied In the year imme diately preceding was carried, 156 to 57. -and hinging on this a tax of 109,311 was voted. 155 to 54. The increase beyond the 6 per cent, limitation is to provide for increase in the number of children attending school, to provide for additional teachers and for general growth of expenses Incident to increase of pop ulation. Jolin.Hon Vindicated. Four hundred and seventy-three cast their ballots for directors, and 228 voted on the tax levy and its related measure. In the contest for the three-year term, J. P. Keyes, who had earnestly sought to avoid re-election, was given 3,11 votes. L w hile his opponent, A. B. Hicks, first appearing in school affairs when he became recall candidate against Carl A. Johnson, received the lowest vote i of any candidate on the ticket, 87. For the one-year term on the board, Mr. Johnson, appearing as a can didate solely as a means of securing an expression of popular opinion in re.ird to the attacks made on him in the recall petition, was vindicated by a 312 vote. R. W. Sawyer re ceived 345, and C. A. O'Brien 121. Hicks' Change Confuses. T'le f.ct that Hicks' supporters at the lust minute decided to run their candidate for a three-year term in stead of accepting the chance given them by Mr. Johnson's candidacy for what virtually amounted to a recall election, resulted in many votes be ing cast of no value to any caSiS' date. It had been generally under stood that the two candidates would be opposed, even though the recall was rendered inoperative by state law, and when Hicks' name was shifted from the list of one-year can didates, many Johnson supporters voted for their candidate for three Instead of for one year. " Votes of this nature resulted In 30 for Mr. Johnson, 6 for Mr. Sawyer and 8 for Mr. O'Brien, while Mr. ICeyes was given 19 votes for a one year term, and his opponent 12 votes for the same period. A numbv of. names were written In on the ballots, following the clos ing of the nominations, and included W. R-. Speck, F. Dement, H. J. Over turf, C. C. McNeely, H. A. Miller, A. J. Goggans, T. H. Foley, Miss M. E. Coleman and T. A. McCann. MORNING FIRE OF UNCERTAIN ORIGIN Hot Ashes Causes Says Fire Chief Incendiary, Believes Tenant of One of. Damaged Houses.
