ELECTION COST CASS
COUNTY ABOUT $2,000
Frntii Saturday's Daily
The cost of the expression of the
will of the people of the county at the
election grows greater each year it
seems and this year it will reach over
the $2,000 mark for the actual cost
of the election. This includes the
judges and clerks, the cost of the sup
plies for. the different precincts the
ballots, the rent of rooms, and the
cost of distributing the supplies and
posting up of notices of the election.
The length of the ballot caused a
n-eat deal of time to be put in by the
boards in each of the wards and pre
cincts and which kept some of them
until Utte the next day after the elec-
in nrenaring their returns. Added
tions as that of the general election
and it is fortunate that the legislature
cut down the elections to one in every
two years instead of each year as was
formerly the case under the old elec
tion law.

self as "well satisfied with .the Mexi
can situation," and hopeful of a set
tlement of the negotiations at Atlantic
City.
The president's guests were Secre
tary Lane, Secretary Lansing and Sec
etary Baker.
The whole situation arising from
hitches in the peace commission pro
ceeding at Atlantic city were thor
oughly discussed, together, with this
government's future course should the
commission fail.

the Mexican members, the necessity
of accepting the proposed agreement.
