THE CITY ELECTION.

The election last Saturday resulted in
q decided victory for the License ticket,
in all the wards except the Third. 1t will
be observed by the returns We publish
below that the candidates on the WIN
ming ticket received about the same
vote, which is an indication that an is
sue was involved and not the personal
strength of this or that man. However,
We were not able to discover an objec-
tionable man on either ticket. The men
were all representative men of Salina.
The result seems to show that at the preset
time there is an overwhelming sentiment
in favor of we'll regulated, high-licensed
saloons. What has created this radical
change of sentiment within the last six
months is q question not easily an
swered. The victory for the license
ticket is SO great that the result should
be quietly acquiesced in-at least until
another election. The vote below is
not official, but is made up from the best
information to be obtained upon the
subject until the vote has been caRvassed
according to law. Tho increased vote
for the school board is accounted for from
the fact that ladies were allowed to
vote for the candidates. Mr.. S. Seaman,
temperance candidate for councilman,
and Messrs. J. G. Rash and W. b. Elan.
ders, temperance candidates for men,
bers of the Board of Education ARE cleo
ted in the Third Ward. There is tit
vote in that ward between Mr.. ]. A
Nelson, temperance candidate, and Mr.
L. o. Wight, license candidate for coun'
Gilman. In consequences of this there Is
to be new election for the place. Here
is the vote as we have it:

The pony running race Of half mile dash for
$50 had only two entries, Orphan Girl and
Little Dick. Little Dick won the race in 52A
seconds.
The ESQ class trotting race for $50 had five
entries and created considerable interest and
excitement. On the third heat STARTER was
driven foul and came in first, with West Wind
second, while Barney would have been dis
tanced. The judges set STARTER back and
ruled Barney in. This ruling raised Bed
lam" and everyone tried to make himself
heard TO suggest what should and what
should not be done to set matters right. At
last the judges called for the fourth heat and
the noise was quoted. The following is a
summary of the race:

No Paltering Now.

Atlast we are to have the truth in re-
gard to the great. frauds in Florida and
Louisiana, crimes by which the people
were cheated of their choice for chief
magistrate by an unscrupulous set Of
scouudrels working in the employ of the
leaders Of the republican party. Since the
formation Of the republic, history has not
furnished another instance of so fragrant
disregard Of right aud justice as was COM
United by the disreputable politicians of
the republican stripe at the late presiden-
tia election. The democratic party,
cheated of its well earned victory at the
polls, has sat complacenty in the halls of
congress patiently waiting for the evidence
to accumulate before making a move. At
last it has come, aud now the whole matter
will be sifted to the bottom and the fraud
exposed. Mr.. Potter, of New York, who
introduced the resolution of inquiry met
the most determined opposition from the
republicans who dared not face the
charges, and who, by refusing to vote, kept
the house without quorum for five days.
No better proof Of their guilt is needed
than this exhibition Of factious conduct, it
fastens the charges where they belong,
on the republican party. The democrats
refused, very justly to admit any amend
ments having tendency to destroy the
effect of the resolution, and insisted on the
previous question, and yesterday succeeded
in passing it in spite of the republicans.
Now that the matter has been reached let
there be no faltering, let every democrat
stand up in the line Of duty and 60 on
with the Investigation thoroughly until the
whole of the enormous crime be unearthed,
No matter who is implicated, be he repub-
lcan 10 high or low station, make no dis

with crime, the truth must come out and tht
honor of the nation be indicated. Again
the committee must not be led to falter BY
appeals from the class called business
men" who, while acknowledging the
appearance Of fraud, dread an inyestiga
ton because they fear a disturbance o.
values. The man who opposes i1vestiga

howl of rage which is sent up by tht
republican committee shows conclusivelJ
that the fraud does exist, that it is DO idle
charge that Mr. Potter makes 1t chow;
also that the republican party is ready t,
sacrifice the good name of the nation, t.
condone crime aud encourage its repetition
for the sake of continuing the radical re-
gime By all means let the investigation
proceed, and it it prove, as it surely will
that Ha; is not entitled to his seat tina
