THERE wss quite an exposition OF the
manly art Of self-defence, election day, in
different parts of the city, but no serious
damage was done. 10 the Filth Ward there
was at one time fair prospect of an ap-
palling scene Of carnage and bloodshed. E.
NJ. Sutton considered himself intimidated
and announced his intention OF srming
himself and shooting on the spot the first
bull-dozer he met and everyone expected to
see the CORY ex-Aldeiman appear at the
polls with Gatling gun, a couple OF small
howitzers and possibly riiiec cannon,
with suit OF chain armor and side
arms too Numerous to mention. But
be Gained down. and no one was butchered
to make Roman holiday. Ii IL with
sigh Of relief that we chronicle this narrow
escape of part of our city from sudden and

Was very clean sweep. There was no con-
test on Mayor and City Judge, aud Mayor
Hatch and Judge Haselton are reelected by
a unanimous vote-Mayor Hatch receiving
1876 more votes than a year ago. The con-
tests were confined to the wards, and in
them the Republicans accomplished every
thing that they attempted. Four years ago
the Sentinel got out its rooster over the
result of city election in which the Demo-
Gratis were able to claim the election of eUery
name on The Democratic tickets with the
exception of some minor ward officers. This
time every name on the Republican tickets
was elected, without exception.
The First Ward, always close but com
monty pretty well attended to by the work
ing Republicans OF the ward, re-elects Al
derman Rumsey by Il majority over young
Democrat, who is reported to have spent
quite sum OF money to secure an election.
In the Second Ward the Democratic
coon came down withou. contest, and DR..
Briggs for Alderman and Mr.. Huntington
for School Commissioner had no opposition.
In the Third Ward, the election was re-
markedly quiet. and Aliermln Verran,
citizens candidate. is reelected BY q ma
jority over McCarty, the Democratic nomi-
nee, which ought to teach the Democrats
that it is wise for them to pay some stten-
ticn TO the Kind Of men they Sc: up for
Office, even in their stronghold. The ward
elects a Republican ward clerk.
10 the Fourth Ward, there was sharp
fight pn Alderman. resulting in the election
Of Geo. II. Morse, Republican By 81 ma
iority. \ year ago the Democrats elected
their candidate for Alderman by p ma
jority. Mr. Ware IL reelected School
COmmis-ioner-receiving most of the votes
of both paIties-by 2S3 majority.
In the Fifth, the contest also was close
one. The Democrats made popular nomina-
ton and as there was some opposition to
Alderman Taylor, on account of the street
improvements, some of his friends felt
little nervous over the election. But the
Fifth may be set down as pretty reliable
Republican Ward. Mr.. Taylor is reelected
by % majority and Russell for School Com
missioner has 40 majority.
Votes for c. |. Ladd, Of Milton. for Coun-
ty Commissioner suddenly made their ap
pesrance at all the polls, in this city. as
elsewhere IN the county. Only 1876 of them
however. were voted IN Burlington, and
Mr.. Town lacks but votes Of 400 majority
in this city. Last year Kinsley had 534
votes, and l22 majority. in Burlington.
So Burlington has done we'll Now
let the new Board Of Aldermen look sharp
after needless expenses and give US an
economical and careful city government /;
let the School Commissioners investigate
impsrtially any causes Of discomfort among
the taxpayers and remove as far as may be
any causes of complaint with the schools,
whose general excellence is admitted by all
and we may have an administration of
city affairs, for the year to como. in regard
to which our citizens Of all parties will
have reason to congratulate themselves.
