through the day.
The Eighth a@d Ninth Wares.
The polls were opened in the Eighth and Ninth
wards promptly at the hour named, and with the
exception OF two polling clerks IN the latter ward
all the officers were on hand. The various factions
IN the Eighth ward as early hall past were as
active beavers hurrying in voters. The Allen

worked energetically to damage Norton's majority

Throughout the district during the night posters
Carlcaturing tweed and Shandey were billed upon
the fences and walls. They represented Tweed aud
Shandley as Siamese twins, and over their heads
were the words
