special election, the said commissioner so selected, shall perform
the duties of an inspector of election in such precinct or voting
place so assigned, as provided by the general election laws, when

county wherein said special election is to be held, not later than
ten o'clock a. m. of the second day next preceding the date set for

said board and receipt therefor, the ballots, ballot boxes, poll
books, tally sheets, stamps, pen, ink, pencils, and other material
necessary for properly holding such election, and shall safely
convey such material, so received, to the precinct, or voting place
assigned, so that the polls may be duly and promptly opened on the
date set for the holding of said special election.  In the event the
special election commissioner of any precinct shall fail to present
himself to the county election board for such election supplies and
to receive the same at the time in this act specified, then it shall
be the duty of the county election board to designate and appoint in
writing, some qualified elector of the county, to perform all of the
