CITY Election


Passed off quietly, the only exception
worth mentioning being in the First
Ward, where Peter Cameron. roaring
Democrat, assaulted a man named Lamar,
whom the Democrats had put upon the list'
but who chose to offer Republican vote.
For this, Cameron assaulted him and struck
him in the face. Sheriff Drew's services
were called into requisition but Cameron
avoided arrest. A complaint will probably
be made against him, and he will be held
Is account.
The result is the reelection of Hon. 10
D. Hatch, Republican, for Mayor, by 2l9
majority; the reelection of NJ. r. Tyler for
City Judge, by 2O4 majority, and the cleo
ton of four Republican Aldermen. and one
Democratic Alderman Republican gain
of oae. The Republicans, in short, carried
everything that they expected to, and IN
most cases by increased majorities. The
Republican gain on Mayer. over last year,
is l6.. This is glory enough for one day.
