OUR ELECTION.

Our election is over and we can give
the result very nearly correct in our table
of returns.
In the county vote for Hon. Philetus
Sawyer, we have fulfilled our pledge,
that we would reverse the votes for the
same Office Of 1868 and we have done
even better by over 200 votes; his ma
jority Of 400 votes surpasSes by far any
other given IN the County.
The result Of the votes on the State
Superintendent, which IS the only true
criterion Of the strength Of the parties
here we cannot fully give, as Gibson and
Two Rivers have failed to report on the
candidates; so far 1Ir. Daleis ahead 256
votes.
Fer State Senator Hon. Carl Fl.
Schmidt has been elected over Mr. John
Carey the Republican candidate and VIM.
Bach on the Peoples ticket by ISL ma
jority.
ForSheriff, Mr. Wittenberg the Demo
cratic candidate received majority Of
191 votes, and owes his election entirely
to being German.
Our people certainly cannot complain,
that they had no choice of candidates to
fill that office, for Sir. Smart, Republi-
can and Mr.. Ira Smith On the Peoples
ticket are either much better qualified
than the one chosen, but as eyerr vote
counts, whether the voter knows who lie
votes for or not, Mr.. Wittenberg has the
majority and we only wish, be may dis.

The election Of Mr.. Even for County
Treasurer will be hailed by all his friends
With more than usua! satisfaction, for be
was an entire novice and stranger in our
political arena and it is only due to his
indomitable energy and his enyiable rep
utatlon for honesty, capability and integ-
rlty that has obtained for him the mucb
coveted prize
Mr.. Fuessenich was reelected in spite
OF all the GENEROUSLY and enviously scat
tered SANDERS against him by larger
majority than he ever has before received.
and we are fully Convinced that it will
ever be his highest aim, to fulfil his Off
clai duties to the best of his ability and
to the entire satisfaction Of cur com
munity.
Mr.. Franz has been elected for the
third time to the Office Of Register by an
increased majority, which is the hest evil
dence that he has given full satisfaction
to our people and Of their faith in his
future good conduct. His late opponent
MIR. Phipps, although the frss time be-
tore the people, made good run. he is
known to be as we'll qualified in every re-
spect as the present occupant Of that Of
fee.
Dir. Treat was also reelected by q
largely increased majority for District
Attorney; and is about the only foreign
er elected in this County. We hope
that this distinction will especially ami
mate him, to help with the other County
others to reduce the heavy expenses of
our County to a reasonable amount and
particularly in our judiciary affairs.
Dir. Armsby is elected County Survey
or by but small majority, although he
deserved every vote in the County.
Our returns are very meager in re-
gard to the votes for Coroner still we be-
heye Doctor Simon has been elected by a
large majority; he viii give full salts

duties Of his Office. Mr. S. Samuelsop

and very fayorably known in cur County
and will be one Of the few, who will net
burden next Legislature with the usc-
less talk or time and money robbing pro
