KNOCKED OUT. The Berne Electric Light Franchise Defeated. An Almost Unanimous Vote Was Registered Against it. The B irne electric light franchise | has gone up in a baloon, the vote ' on the proposition being one hundred and sexenty three for the franchise ’O nineteen against it. They might as well have made it ununi-1 mous. as the vote showed a sentiment in this direction. The special election was held Saturday and was brought about by the presentation 1 ala Vx w * x .

of a petition by William Sheets to the town council asking for a franchise to furnish the city electric lights, and stipulating a price therefor. The council not curing to assume , the responsibility, decided to leave the matter to a popular vote, which i they did with the results as related. I It is evident from the tone of those j who registered a vote that the fran- . 1 chise as presented, had several ear marks that failed to please the pubI lie. It is not now known whether another attempt will be made to give Berne electric lights. It is doubtless true that a fair square off |er a long these lines would meet ! their approval, and if some fellow wants an investment there is nothing better that we know of.
