inspectors and clerks OF election In the
First Ward, Gold Hill, finally con-
cludsd their long and arduous labors
ut z o'clock this morning, and went
home to their anxious families. They
completed the counting of:he votes ats
o'clock, but It took them the balance OF
the time TO straighten out things and
finish their official duties. They GER
tainly have had a long and severe siege
Of 1t, and lots Of fault has been found
with their management; yet after oil
perhnps none could have done better.
What straight" votes there were In
the box were Of little assistance In
counting, for ont OF 75S votes cast
there were only 75 straight ones, all
the rest being worse scratched, pasted
and generally manipulated than any
body aver saw. All they could do
under the circumstances was to take
them one By one and 60 through them
methodically and in aggravating de-
tail, to the bitter end, seeking a little
sleep when exhaustion compelled it.
They had excellent appetites, how
ever, and the quantity Of cigars, cock
tails and lunch consumed by them dur
ing their long Imprisonment was sim
Div terrific; yet they did not look well
when they came out this morning
Their faces were dirty, hair uncomoed,
boards grown long, two Of them had a
black eye apiece, n all n looSeu
az though they had been badly stayed
with.
