THDRSTON The Artemesia Election The election in Aiteroesia cu Monday passed otf very quietly with a rather sma vote. Mr. McKenzie's return to the Keeveship was not a surprise to anybody Probably Councillor Brown is the U -t pleased roan uf the bunch, he having headed the poll, and receiving a bumper vote in the divisions surrounding his own home, as well as at Eugenia. The cwn new councillors are Alduoru au<l Cameron. Mr. Graham had a rather close call. Mr. Latimer was scarcely known outside lus own division, but the figures of that division show what the people at home think of him. Mr. Cameron is a young man whom we think will make good.
