Bower Appeals To State Court In Wyoming County Case
Paul Bower, defeated by incumbent C. L. White in the August 1 Democratic primary for Wyoming County Court, asks the Wyoming Supreme Court to declare him the nominee.

White won 1,462 to 1,424 with 38 votes edge. Bower claims without Hanover, margin would be 45.
