Urban Council Election. -The heavy and un- ceasing downpour of rain on Saturday put an effectual damper on all electioneering enthusiasm at Penmaenmawr, but very little interest being shown in the doings of the day. There was a contest in two wards, and the voters came slowly, though steadily, to the poll. In the Capelulo Ward there were four candidates for one seat, the re- tiring councillor, Rev R. O. Williams, not seeking re-election. The candidates were Messrs David Thomas Davies, Aberkin, cI<¥k; Edward Davies 4, Glyn-terrace, shoemaker; Thomas Owen, Dolau, joiner; and William Smith, Penmaenmawr Hotel, hotel keeper and corn merchant There were two vacancies in the Pantyrafon Ward with three can- didates seeking favour. They were Dr Herbert Jenkins, Tanyberllan, medical doctor; Mr William Henry Rhodes, M.A., schoolmaster.; and Mr Richard Williams, Vron Villa, builder. The result of the polling was declared shortly after 8-30 in the Panyrafon Ward, the figures being—Jenkins, 176; Williams, 147; and Rhodes, 56. The two former were declared elected. Shortly after, the Capelulo boxes were brought in, and the figures given were-Edward Davies, 39; Thomas Owen, 32; William Smith, 13; and Thomas Davies, 3; Edward Davies being declared duly elected. A large crowd assembled to hear the result declared, but no excitement whatever was apparent.
