A final attempt to get the two political factions at Harrietta together failed and the recall election will be held as ordered on May 25. Some of the principals and their attorneys were in conference yesterday regarding a possible patching up of the difficulties but it was decided to go through with the affair. Accordingly, Mrs. Minnie Southwick, president; Robert Freeman, clerk, and four of the trustees, will go before the village electors seeking vindication for their course through which the results of the March 7 election defeating these officers have been ignored because the election board put in by the opposite faction on election day failed to properly file a statement of the result. The official ballots for the recall election now are being printed. Under the official heading for the special election, which is being conducted by Judge Fred M.

After blowing incessantly for more than 60 hours the wind abated early today bringing an end to the blizzard that had raged over the weekend. The sun appeared a dazzling brightness against the whiteness of the new snow that fell during the storm. Drifts in many parts of the city are said to be higher than in 20 years. In lots of places the snow is banked to second story windows and over the tops of small trees. Many houses in exposed locations are in saucers with snowbanks on all sides as the wind swirled the snow about and packed it in peculiar formations.
