Municipal Election Returns,
VILLAGE OF EXETER.
Considering the wet, uncomfortable
day a fairly large vote was pulled.
The candidates and their friends work-
ed hard all day. Much interest center-
ed in the couteet for the Reeveship be-
tween the old reeve, Mr. Bubier, and
Mr. Wm. Bawden. The councillors
ran aclose and interesting contest and
the result showed that four of thew
are very popular. while the other two
are not so well known, having been
out of town considerably since they
moved to the village to reside. The
old trustees were elected to the school
board, although Mr. Richard Davis,
the new aspirant, polled a good vote
and was at no time out of the running
The result is the council of 1907 will
consist of Reeve. A. Q. Bobier, and
Councillors, A. E. Kuke, J. J. Knight,
W. J. Heitman and W. Johns. The
Trustees of the school are, Messrs.
Samuel Martin, R. N. Rowe and Frank
Wood, same as last year.
After the polls closed a large num-
ber of citizens congregated at the
Town Ball, where Mr. W. J. Carling
announced the returns and the suc-
cessful candidates who were present
were called on to make addresses, which
consisted principally of "thanks" to
the electors for electing them to the
bonorahle offices and "promisee" of
careful attention to their various du-
ties.
