about the city. Out of regard for the ex-
odus movement of the 'ffavorit" sonny the
driver obeyed.
The long, long weary two hours finally
wore away, the Hon. Pennock showed back
his eyeballs, and Capt. Blakeley declared the
polls closed with several Republican saloons
yet to hear from. The four judges rolled
up their sleeves and proceeded to count. The
Hon. Pennock, with an eye to having an
easy job, selected the "favorit' sonny
tickets, and Capt. Blakeley proceed
ed to handle the Cush- Blaine cards,
shutting them about in style which
reminded the bystanders of Gov. Marshall's
celebrated indictment of some of his Repub-
lican associates as "three card monte trick
sters." The captain dealt out the Cush
Blaine pack in piles of ten, which Sanborn
proceeded to verify by recounting. The
captains dexterity as shuffier of cold
deck was proven by the fact that he only
made one mistake, and only one pile, which he
counted ten, contained eleven. If Sanborn
found any pile containing only nine, he pru-

There was a good gathering of the faith
full at the police station at the time of the
opening of the polls, prominent among
whom were Marshal, McLaren, Special
Agent Bean, and number of other custom
house employees. Mr.. Fred Driscoll was
chosen as one of the judges on behalf of
WINDOWS little boom, and j. II. Cleveland
on behalf of the Davis Blaine faction. Frank
Fairchild was appointed to take the names
of the challenged voters, but at the close of
the polls had only recorded five names, all of
whom were challenged because of supposed
Democratic proolivities. There were a good
many other Democrats who attempted to
vote early and often, but they we're spotted
and their ballots thrown out. The voting
was brisk, and by 7 o'clock 242 ballots had
been cast. OF these the Davis ticket receiv-
ed from 123 to 1877, and the Window ticket

McLarleu withdrew his forces in bad order,
Mr.. Driscoll heaved sigh and remarked
that he felt as if it was supper time, and the
conclave dispersed. The defeated candidates
we're:
G. N. Bell, j. G. Haupt, Ed. s.. Bean, Fred.
Driscoll, Henry Justus, James r. Walsh.

The voting in the Fourth ward was brisk
and characterized by considerable feeling.
At first it was nip and tuck between the two
tickets, but there was strong undercurrent
for Davis, and that ticket passed under the
string with flying colors. There was moth

idea that it would be laudable scheme to
close up the saloons at the next Republican
caucus.
At five o'clock half dozen or go of stall
warts seated themselves in the Ramsey
street engine house, and proceeded to effect
an organization. On motion of G. K.
Davis, Messrs. R. Davenport, NJ. j. Clum

engine house, at 8 o'clock, and continued up

crowd was largely in preponderance. Though
they peddled Window tickets they were out

about anything (meaning Window, as the
thing to beat Grant, ha! ha!"

Col. j. Ham Davidson, Berggren, of the in
ternal revenue office-in violation of civil
service order No. 1-were peddling the tick
cts for the Window boom. H. A. Castle and
Il. Barden were canvassing for the Davis
Blaine ticket. The Window boom come it
with a boom over the other fellows. They
had more money, hence more hacks to bring
up the voters; more employees, hence more
votes by seventy odd when the vote was
counted. And that none of the Grants
crowds employees should vote wrong, Messrs.
Merriam ct al and their strikers dealt
out yellow tickets, so no mistake
should be made. The Plow Works
employees, the st. Paul Manufacturing
company's employees and the st. Paul &
Duluth shops were marched up, and made
no mistake, for each one was given yellow
ticket, and put iem in to a man Just hkeWas
