Election Returns

ELECTION RETURNS.

Women Capture a Kansas Town-Some Results Elsewhere.

Oskaloosa, Kan., April 3.- A city ticket composed of women for the council and a woman for mayor was elected here Monday by 66 majority. They are representative ladies and a reform administration is looked for.

Dubuque, Iowa, April 3.- The city election Monday resulted in a victory for the Fusion ticket by majorities ranging from 250 to 330. The Knights of Labor, who put up a straight ticket, were completely routed. Considerable scratching was done.

Chicago, April 4.- The city and town elections held here Tuesday resulted in the choice of eighteen Republican and twelve Democratic aldermen, and the general success of the Republican township tickets.

Similar elections were held all over the state, with results that are hard to classify, local issues entering into the contests as usual, and in some cases the temperance question. The results, however, were generally favorable to the Republicans.

In Indiana the elections are apparently about a stand-off, Democrats and Republicans sharing in the victories. Their significance can not be known for some time, and it is quite probable that when the full returns are in the significance will be the way it is desired by the man who does the figuring. Returns, however, are meagre.

In Wisconsin the vote was generally Republican, as is expected in that state. Milwaukee was carried by the citizens, ticket against the Labor party, the whole ticket being successful by majorities ranging from 1,000 to 1,800. The Socialists had a separate ticket and polled about 500 votes. There were citizens' tickets in several other places in the state, among them Ripon, and in other towns party lines were not drawn.
