Election results and local notes from Jensen Jottings
The village election was unusually close with all candidates running neck to neck. Frank Billings led with 77 votes as Republicans outpaced Democrats and Socialist candidates each drew about 11 votes. The day included a ward house dinner and a late night dance to raise funds for the Tabernacle. Weather and farming updates note late fall warmth, hay shipments by Billings & Son, and snow disruption forcing Shenandoah reservation families home. Roads are muddy and duckponds form in low lands amid scarce ammunition.
