At th’et same- election the Marshall-Gowdy combination was defeated by the electors a t the polls. A t a meeting along in the summer when there were several vacancies to be filled the Marshall-Gowdy faction won due to the Shoup faction not hav­ ing all their members present, the latter having organized the committee originally.
