Out In The Cold

Monday startcd in for a cold dlsagreeable day, which probably accounts for the &ct tliat many republicans made up thelr minds enrly in the morning not to vote, and the pleasant sunshine tliat afterward greeted thera did not appear to alter thelr determioation, at any rate many republicans did not tuke the trouble to vote, and so the electlon went largely by default. The democrats, however, all turned out. They were there from early morning until the polls closed - and they voted, too. A summary of the result shows tliat In tliis city the demócrata elected mayor, president of the council, foiir out of six supervisors, tliree out of six aldermen, with one tie, and four out of six constables. If the same enthusiastic work had been done by the republicana of the other wards, as was done by those of the firsf, seconil and third wards, the result would have been different, it is altogether probable. Under the'; circumstances Mr. Spokes the republican candidato for mayor, made a run that he may well fcel proud of. Below is the result in detail: 3 - i i s 8. Ú i 5 s Mayor.

If you want to run for oilice iu the third ward take the name of Kearns. Iu the 4tii ward only 272 votes were polled. There sliould have boen 300 at least. There were over tliirty republicana in the fourth ward alone uiio remained at home. The heavens wept nearly all Monday nlght over the result, and the thunders roared and the lightning flashed i anger. One of Mie finest runs in the city was made by Bert Suhumaclier in the 2d ward for ulderman. Wlth an avalanche against liim he went into the fight and made a brilliant showing. The demócrata Howlett in loud tones that they have beaten aCampbel! in a race, and they Ihink it was Manly to knock the Spokes out of the republican wheel. They had to hustle to do it, thoagh. It seems llke oíd times to have the democrats successful in the spring elections and ofl'yeara. But when the republicans pull themsclves together, and gel oul and vote, they get there uil right, just as of yore. Mayor Beakes flew to the flfth ward Monday p. m., and protested against carrying out the luw wbich provides that when too many ballots are found in a box one shall be drawn. He didn't protest in the fourth ward however, where a republican ballot was drawn out, and where the attuntlon of the ticket counter was called to the fact that he had two democratie tickets folded together when he was counting them. But the two were tlirown in the pile just the same, and a república n drawn out to make the votes conform to the tally slieet. What's sauce for the goose, you know, Is sauce for the gander We understand that the demócrata have hunted up a democrat in the Btb ward who says he voted Uat Monday, and his name was not checked off the tally list, and so they propose to forcé the council to return the democratie ballot drawn out and thus elect auother democratie alderman. If the council goes to tinkering wlth the returns as sent In by tlie election boards they maj' fliul theinselres in trouble. It would be far better to let this thing be settled in tbe legitímate and lawful way provided by statute than to adopt any of the late prosecuting attorney's peculiar tricks to settle it. The demócrata in this city have raised the usual cry of "boodle," some of them saying that the fund raised by the republicans was $500 and some $5,000. The truth of the matter is that less than $75 wil] cover every red cent expended by the republicana in the entire city, and that wat) paid for prluting tickets and slip?, and paying for hack hire. Can our brothers who cry "boodle" to keep the public from looking at their ovvn peculiar silvery methods, sny as muchT What induced the 15 or 20 democratie workers in the 4th ward to devote their energies to the cause that day ? Was it patriousm pure and simple, or was it the clink of the chlnk at the rate of from $3 to $5 per dayeach? Don'tall speak at once. And was not that a sample of other wards?
