Particularly in closing the polls at 7 instead o f 8, and election judges insisting on 90-day instead ot a 30-day resident quali fication, a conflict betweed the city and state laws. If the election had been decided by more than 9 votes, 65 to 56. those claiming they had been refused a right to vote would not be enough to affect the result. . ¿ ili AT T ...-............................... .... 11 "■ 1,1 — 1 " C H A S .
