Election coverage for WRCC in 1898 and 1901 in the British Newspaper Archives appears to be very limited; but from what I can gather, sadly only a handful of the divisions were contested and little interest was aroused.

WEST RIDING COUNTY COUNCIL 1931
Some uncertainty about this. The available information does not match the Yorkshire Post's report that there were 44 unopposed and 46 contests, and no single source lists all the divisions and all the candidates. Some low profile unopposed returns were not mentioned and have been inferred from later reports of attendance at county council meetings.

There was only one review of the West Riding county electoral divisions during the council's existence. The first set of boundaries covered 1889-1946 whilst the second 1949-70. A review had commenced in the 1930s but WW2 intervened (and also the proposals had not been well received). The council hit a snag when the 1946 review began because according to the regulations any scheme had to be illustrated with one inch OS maps, but (assume postwar austerity) these were in short supply. The Home Office relented and allowed WRCC to use half inch to the mile OS maps. The cost of the maps(alone) was £156, which is over £5,000 nowadays. The plan was completed and agreed by November 1947. The number of divisions rose from 90 to 96. Honley, Ouseburn and Todmorden South divisions were abolished. Askern, Baildon, Barwick, Denby Dale, Edlington, Harrogate No.3, Pudsey No.2, Rossington, Snaith were the newly created divisions. The unchanged divisions were Barnoldswick, Conisbrough, Goole, Hemsworth, Kiveton Park, Mirfield, Ossett, Queensbury, Saddleworth.
A pity that details of the new scheme are not available on the BNA or other online archives (they're lodged at Wakefield Archives) but it is possible to piece together for a few divisions.
Harrogate 1 - Granby, Starbeck and Wedderburn wards of Harrogate MB (12,117 electors in 1947)
Harrogate 2 - Bilton, Duchy, East Central (14,668)
Harrogate 3 - West Central, Harlow, Pannal (14,805)
Elland - the whole of the UDC (14,605)
Hebden Bridge - Langfield ward of Todmorden MB, Hepton RD and Hebden Bridge ward of Hebden Royd UDC (9,423)
Queensbury (& Shelf) - the whole of Queensbury & Shelf UDC plus Denholme UDC (8,444). This division comprised of two parts because of Bradford CB's boundary.
