The total vote WAS 436 or approximately 60 per cent of the total registration of 743. The large, vote in the borough was principally the result of a three-cornered fIght for the nomination to the office of tax and collector Democratic on both tickets the Re- be- publican tween W. V. Webb, present incumbent, and Aden W. Burns and Russell F.

Gearbart. Webb recelved the nommation on both tickets. The Republivote was decisive, he having almost double the vote of his nearest opponent and nearly a hundred votes more than the combined vote of his Webb had 244; Burns, 123, and Gearhart, 26. The race for the Democratic nomination to this office was more spirited, with Webb, Republican, nosing out Gearhart, Democrat, on his own ticket by a 17 to 14 vote. In this contest was third with 7 votes.

The Webb to this office, the borough's most remunerative, is thus practically assured unless an independent candidate appears In the field at the general election, which is gulle urtlikely. Another Duncansville office that was practically settled at the primary election was that of school director. G. Edward Krider received the nomination on both tickets for the full term of six years. while M.

Luther gott and John H. Robertson were accorded the nomination on both tickets for the two-year unexpired term, all without opposition excepting for the usual few names written on ballots of both parties. In this case it is also unlikely that A campaign will be waged at the general election. The biggest surprises of the primaries in the borough came on the Democratic ticket, which was blank excepting for the offices of school director and tax collector. Usually Republicon candidates are endorsed by the Democrats of the borough, which are in the minority, a but this year things were different and a number of new names will appear on the ballot at the general election.

This is particularly true in the office of borough councilmen. Only one Republican candidate recelved the endorsement of the Democrats, the others being new nominees. Harvey Diehl led the Republican field of four nominees and tied for frat place as Democratic nominee. Other cratic nominees were Charles Mobley, George Engle and Elmer Brua for this office. With the exception of Gilbert Delozier, all the councilmen whose of office expire year, were candidates for reelection on the Republican ticket.

Harvey Diehl had 328 votes, I Eugene Kelly had 301, Edwin Shoenfelt had 268 and John Mutzabaugh hud 203. Luwrence Run; eon, who left Duncansville after his name had been I placed on the ticket wag near winner, despite his absence, with 189 votes. There were five candidates' names on the ticket for the four places. For the office ot burgess, 'Squire John Shoenfelt defeated Lewis MeMaster on the Republican ticket, but WAS the choice of the ocrats. H.

E. Hite, present burgess of the borough, was given the nomination for justice of the peace on both the Republican and Democratic tickets and is candidate whose election is practically assured. Ho did not aspire to reelection ax burgess, after service of nearly two terms. Albert L. Gibboney received the Republican nomination for the office of borough auditor and William Kirkham Democratic nomination for the same office.

Levi Delozier, present incumbent, WAR the Republican cholce for borough assessor, whlle the Democrata named Guy H. Lotz us their candidate. William I. Young, present judge of election, was renominated by the Republicans, while his brother-inlaw, Wilmer Hanley, was the Democretic selection, J. Hunter Keller defeated Albert L.

Gibboney for majority inspector, while Edgar Magill the choice for minority inspector. For the county offices, Cook led in the borough for sheriff; Hall thonotary; Beringer for controller: Fessler for director of the poor and lingenfelter for jury commissloner on the Republicun ticket. About twothirds of the Republicans registered voted, while only about one-third of the Democratic voters visited the polls, CAPTAIN R. F. LOVE TO MARRY IN WYOMING Mr.

The small group of Democrats and the regular Re-, publicans who are interested in particular schedules in the bill want the measure passed before December sesaion begins and the talk of night sessions indicates that the mujority of the senate will insist upon prompt action. The 1929 tariff bill may have flaws in it, but the majority of the senate would rather have it adopted than to get no tariff protection at all. MANY SEEK BERTH.
