FAIR SIZED VOIE WAS CAST
The city election passed oft quietly
Monday, and only a fair vote was
[tolled, there being 224 in all.
The greatest interest of the election
was centered in two ordinances, the
one to bond the city for $60,000 to
establish a municipal water system.
Only tax payers were allowed to
vote on this and it carried by the
decisive vote of 10S to 46, which
would appear in no uncertain terms
that the tax payers of the to* n
desire that the city should own its
water system.
The other ordinance was to decide
whether or not, cows should continue
to run at large in the city limits, and
the mild eyed bossies won out by a
vote of 117 to gl- Thus will bossie
cow continue to 10am at will for
at least another year, and people
must continue to keep up their
fences, and keep their gates closed,
and fix broken sidewalks, ami do a
number of other stunts, toaccommo
date her royal highness, because the
people have, by a decisive vote,
declared they are willing to do so
for the sake of the bossie.
For city officers the vote stood as
follows: For mayor, J. W. Mast, 121;
C. R. Wade, 90. For councilmen,
R. W. Boyle, 157; M. Breuer, 125;

got their money s worth and then
some. The fat men started off with
a big lead and kept going all the
time, and the musicians would get a
move on themselves occasionally
and take a spurt, but were never
able to get in under the wire with
enorgh scores to make it interesting.
There were all kinds of slab artists
developed in the game.

Bandon Won Game.
In one of the fastest games played
in Coos Co . this summer Bandon
won from Myrtle Point, Sunday, bv
the close score of 4 to 3. It was a
great game throughout and neither
team had the better of it until the
last man was out in the 9th inning
Neither team scored in the 1st, but
Myrtle Point put one man over in
the second, the game running this
way until the last of the fifth when
Bandon put two men across the
rubber. Myrtle Point rang the Itell
in their half of the sixth, but Bandon
came again in the seventh with two
more gongs of the bell.
Again
Myrtle Point scored one run in the
eighth, making the score board read
B ndon 4, Myrtle Point 3, and it
read that way until the finish Each
team played gilt edged ball, and
there were few errors by either team
I'he trip was made by boat, ami the
learn arrived in Myrtle Point late
and tired, but that did not seem to
make any difference in their playing,
and the Myrtle Point f ins were very
enthusiastic in the expression of
lit • 1 opinion of the game. Next
"s'i I iy, July the 3rd, Myrtle Point
comes to Bandon, and from the
results of previous games it should
be one of I he best games of the
season.
