Mt Airy Election Defeats Water Bond in Tight Contest
In Mt Airy the May town election featured a fierce battle over a $20,000 water and electric light bond. Voters sided 76 to 56 against the bond, ending a tense campaign spurred by recent fires. A. R. Molesworth won the mayoral post with 77 votes, while R G Molesworth and A Frank Millem led the council candidates, amid a generally anti bond result and concerns over tax increases. Emmitsburg Walkersville and Myersville held quiet, uncontested polls as Emmitsburg elected a burgess and a commissioner, Walkersville adopted a bylaw with minimal turnout, and Myersville chose its officers from a near-full slate.
