The Election.
Bandon Precinct.
Monday was an ideal day for elec
tion, but being also an ideal day to
pursue the various occupations gt
labor, it was not an occasion calcula
ted to call out tho full voting strength,
although there was interest enough
taken to call out a strong vote.
At Bandon the day passed off qui
etly, aud although there was consid
orable interest taken in making choice
of candidates, the work seems to have
been done in advance, aud the voters
quietly weut to the polls aud did their
work.
The number of votes cast was 240,
which was 112 below the number reg
istered, and of these 10 were sworn iu,
so that it is evident a considerable
per cent stayed at homo. Below is
