Local Clmrck
Judge D.R.Parker, judge of the
circuit court for this county, last
Monday handed down a decision
declaring the recent local option
election at Grass Valley to be null
and vQid because of election irreg
ularities. 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.
