Sheridan Reames of Paris won reelection as city alderman amid a disputed race with his brother and a tally that grew from dozen 1928s in Cuba to more than 30.

Voters were confused in a Logan County election where Sheridan Reames sought re election but his brother Sherman Reames appeared on the ballot by mistake. Sherman lost 148 to 108. A new election followed and Sheridan Reames defeated Miller 1951 to 79.
