THE ELECTION.
A Democratic May City
Coun Gil, etc.

The election yesterday was quite an exciting
contest. The Democrats had been quietly at
work more than two months to sweep the city.
They have elected a Mayor and Municipal
Judge, but the Board of Aldermen is made up
of Republicans and Democrats, while in the
Common Council the Republicans havea elected
Is of q members, giving a Republican majority
of on joint ballot. The Democratic MAORI
ty for Mayor is 44O, while the aggregate Demo-
cratic majority for Aldermen is only 22O.
Rumors of the result were in the air early.
The first was to the effect that in Ward e, Hem
ry Fox was being cut to death for Alderman on
account of Calls wharf. If so intelligent, reli-
abe and popular a man as Fox was being
slaughtered, one naturally thought that the
prospect was hopeless. Next came reports from
Ward l. The fellows there had taken their
knives with them and were seeing what strange
things they could cut out of an ordinary ballot.
Then came rumors that Wards 2 and were
rolling up hundreds for Richardson and scarce
ly tens for Wescott. 1t did look dubious as the
denizens of Fore street swarmed ups intoi the
ward rooms.
Of course the usual sharp tricks were played
by cheap ward politicans-tricks which if
practced in business would consign the man
employing them to infamy or state prison. In
Ward 8 Democratic candidate procured the
printing of fac sina,le of the Republican ballot
and attempted to palm them off on Republic
can as bundle sent to his side by mistake. 1t
didn't work we'll, for the whole bundle went to
a safe waste basket intact. Two Republicans
in Ward came to find that some other man
had voted on their names. A Democrat came
back to vote second time because word was
sent him by Democratic candidate that his
name was not checked, but Jimmy OConnor
was not allowed to vote on the name
of James o. Conner, simply because man
in the desk knew the SAID Jimmy o..
If these tricks were played in orderly Ward 8,
where man scarcely speaks aloud at an cleo
ton, what must have been the frauds in those
wards where the crowd was large and excited,
and the air thick with breaths smelling of bad
whiskey, aud the stencil of unwashed clothing
and bodies, where one man may safely vote on
two, three or five names?
In ward the fight was the sharpest and the
victory the most gratifying.
There is report that the alderman elect
from ward 2 is disqualified for the Office, and
that Mr.. Littlefield will contest on some ground
but it lacks confirmation.
The following is the vote in the several wards
for Mayor, Judge, etc:
tote for Mayor.
