IHUOllUlN lIDlIlUAl L.
THE REPUBLICANS CARRY THE DAY
Rand Elected Mayor by 358 Majority-Hill
Elected Comptroller by 1000 Majority
Not an Exciting Contest After AL.
The election is over atlast, and now many
Minneapolitan breathes easier than he has
for sometime past. It was not the red hot
contest that many had predicted and only
for the carriages being driven about town to
pick up voters, and the crowds of men about
the polls, stranger would scarcely have no.
ticed that anything out of the regular order
was going on. He certainly would
not have thought that one of
THE MOST IMPORTANT
municipal elections ever held in the city was
in progress. The Republicans started in
with determination to win, and the Demo
Gratis were not behind them in their conf
dence of success. Early in the day it was
believed that the move of the Proeibitianists
would seriously effect Mr.. Rand's chances.
Then the Glenn men we're run in, and for
some time it looked very much as though
the
. DEMOCRATIC HORSE
was on the inside track about Que length
ahead and had fair prospect of coming in
all right. Shortly after dinner, however, the
r and people commenced their work and
continued till the polls closed. The result
was that Mr.. Rand received more votes than
Mr.. Glenn, and his supporters are CORES
pondingly elated at their narrow escape from
''send1ng the city to the dogs"
as they express it. Taken throughout,
the contest was one of the most
QUIET AND HARMONIOUS
ones ever held in the city. All saloons were
closed, and during the entire day not a
single person was to be seen on the streets
under the influence of liquor. In the eve
ming the different parties congregated at
their respective headquarters, and in q quiet
and orderly manner awaited for the returns.
When read and announced there was less
demonstration than usual, for it was be-
lieved the result would be
QUITE CLOSE
and no one felt like giving vent to an ex-
preston of his feelings until other returns
came in. Finally, when it was safe to con-
clude that Mr.. A. G. Rand was really elected,
the people dispersed and the affairs of the
city once more assumed their normal con-
dition.
