E. Wicks, head of the lumber comâ€" pany bearing his name, with a mill at Timmins where he is a frequent visitor, was elected mayor of Cochrane on Monday by 550 votes, as against 331 cast for R. M. Smith, the other candiâ€" date. The election was necessary on account of the recent resignation of Mayor R. Mitchell after some criticism of his regime. The election contest was a strenuous one. Mr. Wicks ran on platform of progressive and economical administration. He has extensive lumâ€" ber interests in the North and has been connected with Cochrane for some 20 years, serving ably on the school board, town council, high school board and other public and semiâ€"public bodies. His election was due, according to reâ€" ports from Cochrane, to the confidence felt in his outstanding talent and integâ€" rity. â€" His opponent, Mtr. R. M. Smith, was also popular and esteemed and had a creditable public record, being on the council and in the mayor‘s chair on previous occasions. The vote polled is said to be a record one for Cochrane.
