Page "Napoleon B. Broward" Paragraph 7

In the election of 1892, the Straightouts, under Broward's leadership, swept the city offices-Broward's close friends, John N. C. Stockton and John M. Barrs, became city attorney and councilman, respectively, while Broward retained the sheriff's office.

The Antis were not dead yet, though ; two years later, the split between the two camps was more severe.

Antis and Straightouts accused each other of vote fraud, complaining to the secretary of state and the governor ; Anti sympathizers held most of the state offices, and the Antis won out.

Broward was removed from office and Antis again took over the city.
