A recount of the vote discloses that the party whose seat was being challenged, not only retained the the majority certified to by the © lection board, but actually gained additional The contesting candidate failed to show any gain, There should be no desire to deny a defeated candidate the privilege of asking for a recount, when circumstances other than the mere gambling element enters. Bul in most cases, a legit mate reason does not exist. Very often such a candidate is misled by over-zealous friends who have nothing more to offer in evi- dence of fraud or error, than mere speculative rumor, A number of close elections have occurred in Centre county In which the defeated candidates refused to enter into a coniest pecause of the unsportmanship feature such a procedure involves. They held that the acceptance of defeat, even under cifcum- stances permitting a gambler’ privilege of contesting, was the only real sporting thing to do Another angle to this method of attempting to upset elections Is the effect It may have on election boards. The very fact of a eandidate petitioning for a recount of a voting precinct reflects by inference, at least, upon the intelligence and integrity of the members of the board. In all such cases, where hctual proof of irregularity on the part of an election board is lacking, it is a serious reproach upon innocent officials to indict them in this manner, " If contests of this kind are unavoidable in Centre county in the future, let there be a more sensible method of Insugurating them than by perverted rumor, re county voles : [tent of about $176. seven miles east Banjo Band $50 according to affidavits filed with | the Commission Not filed as yet is the account of Judge M.
