THE ELECTION.
A Pleasant Day-Peace and Har-
mony at the POIIs-The Tally of
Votes Up to Going to Press.

For a wonder, it was pleasant yesterday,
and the people from outside precincts
rolled into town in every sort Of convey.
ance-after casting their votes at home - to
take in all the sights Of the hooks and cor
ners of our city, and be present at that
which was generally acknowledged would be
the closest contested election ever held in
Eureka. The jam OF people was unprece-
dented. The streets were never 30 crowded.
1t appeared more like a holiday than that
Of an election. Although in accordance
with law the saloons were closed, still the
merchants decked out their business
houses very attractively, and the shop
windows fairly glowed in bright colors and
beautiful wareD
The I'd day OF November is counted with
the past. On the night Of the LIST the fore
shadowing events looked ominous for q
warm day on the morrow, and so it was.
From 10 o'clock in the morning the ex-
| element attending the occurrence Of cleo
| ton day began to boom, and the many
| knots Of earnest workers signifed that
many personal friends" were at work
for their favorites. All were sanguine Of
success. Democrats, Republicans, indie
pendents, Damphools- all we're sure OF
winning their fight at the polls.
By private kilograms we learn that the
fight for the Legislative and County Off
| GERS all over the State, has been one of
" blood" Very little, if any, ''corrup-
ton fund was circulated, and the battle
was upon the merits or popularity of the
candidates and party principles, to the ex-
| clusion OF everything else.
Much scratching of tickets was INDUCED
in, but there was very little scratching Of
faces. During the day there were but two
or three fights, and one pair HE'D them
selves away up the mountain side, east Of
town, there to settle their little differ
ences. They could be plainly seen from
town, and after nine knock-downs, the peo-
pie from the streets began to adjourn to
the neighborhood. But the officers put a
stop to the racket shortly, and there was
no particular damage done. Voting was
carried on slowly all day in both wards of
Eureka and in Ruby Hill, until after two
p. NJ, when il livened up about the polls,
and there was a continued run till the 60
ing down Of the sun.
