Second ward, and Carl Smith and Carl Anderson, councilmen. Third ward, be filed and that these names appear on the official ballot. Horton's name will appear on the ballot as he was the nominee of the Citizens' convention held Thursday night, Carl Smith's name will also appear on the official ballot as the People's candidate, his name having been presented earlier Saturday in a separate petition which was recognized as legal. Smith is a member of the present council and is fire chief.
One of the grounds on which the petition was rejected was that it did not contain the residence or business of the signers. Another defect is that people living in one ward petitioned for the nomination of councilmen in other wards and there are said to be many legal defects.
It is impossible to ascertain now whether the movement will be pushed and an effort made to elect these candidates by the use of "stickers." The petition was presented by Robert Otness and C. A. Tenwick.
