From The Wiltshire Times, Saturday 3rd April 1915:
Warminster. Local Election Apathy.
Never since Warminster has had the right to elect members to an Urban District Council has such indifference been displayed as on Saturday, and but for the fact that the last contest was as far back as 1911, it is doubtful if there would have been one this year.
The poll on Saturday was the lowest on record, only 223 out of the 1,279 voters on the register troubling to vote.
The Conservatives ran four candidates, Messrs. C.H.V. Weston, W.J. Tanswell, J.R. Moloney, and C. Cox.
Result: Elected, E.E. Dent, C.H.V. Weston, W.J. Tanswell, G. Collins, G. Stephens, J.R. Moloney; not elected, J. Button, C. Cox.
