The climax of the struggle came Tuesday afternoon, when the eleotio were held which de- cided for this ter who should control the destinies of he Literary Sooiety. For several days revions the candidates and their supper ers "campaigned" in truly orthodox tyle. Platforms were issued, Cartoons ere displayed on the blackboards, and 11 kinds of promisee made by the tw tickets as to what would be done in ase of election. The eleotion itself on Tneeday was carried out with all sole nity and every pre- caution taken to e sere the secrecy and sanctity of the ba lot. Poll olerke, re- turning officers, orntineers and con- stables were all o hand, carefully in- structed in their d ties. Voters whose names were misain from the list held by the returning o ter were summarily ejected, and, it is s id that several whose conduct appeared s spicions were com- pelled to take the o th. The girls were quite as enthusias 'o as the boys, and displayed a thoroug acquaintance with election tactics. It s rumored -and we speak only from he rsay-that the elec- tion was not wholly ree from bribery, the favorite medium f currency being chocolates. Sever hours were con- sumed in counting t e ballots, the great- est care being tak n to detect spoiled ballots. When the task was finally completed, the seni returning officer, Mr. Geo. Tees, gave out the following list of successful oa didates:- Honorary preside t, Dr. Macdonald; President, W. H.
