APPARENT HEAVY POLL AT BUBBAYGEON in the morning until the present as we are about to' go to preSS there seems to be a very heavy poll being taken, very few if. any votes are being missed :by either party. Scrutineers are busy making sure through the entire village and many a heated argument has already deâ€" veloped, and the day, as a fellow would say “only a pup”. But each party is very certain that that their ‘party will be victorious. Scrutinisers are everything possible their party. Les. Frost, Conservative Candiéfité seems to be a very popular winner, over Mr. Newman, Liberal Candidate as far as public talk goes. But this paper is published several hours be- for the local returns are all in. A full report will be given in these columns next week.
