A Strong Ticket.

To THE EDITOR OF THE GAZETTE The
Democrats, on Saturday, nominated a strong
ticket. The nominees are true and tried
men, and should receive not only the whole
Democratic strength but the support of all
men who love honest government. If they
are elected and no doubt they will be, at the
end of their terms there viii be no necessity
for costly Investigations, as their past records
entities them to the confidence of the people.

The certificate of election in the Ninth
ward was made out for Pancoast Allen,
although that gentleman received six votes
less than his opponents, and given to Mr..
Allen. This action will undoubtedly bring
the question of the ballots to an issue, and
this morning that gentleman said he was III
favor of the defeated candidates contesttng
the election, although no definite action mad
vet been taken. The Alumni Association
are debating which would be the best course
to take, and will hold meeting this evening
Mr.. Emmons in speaking of the matter
said that he had been candidate against
his own inclination, but having been put IL
the field of course disliked the idea of being
defeated, which result would not have
happened had the members of the assOcia
tion been little more energetic in bringing
out the better portion of the voters OF tn
| ward. The canvass against him was made
personal one on the ground that he was no
good Democrat" the principal worker
, against him taking voters to the polls II
! squads, Mr. Emmons does not think h
will contest the election himself, but vii
, let the matter rest in the hands of tn
Alumni Association.
( Frank M. Reeve, the member-elect, VIII

s matter and come out all right. Had h

q, Where There Was Fight.
The school election ON Saturday passed off
quietly, and, with the exception of one OF two
wards, but little active interest was mani
tested In the result, the mayoralty nomina-
ton claiming she greatest attention. The
Alumni Association Of the Boys High School
took an active part In tine election, and put
II candidates IN the field. OF that number
five were elected without opposition, but of
those In the wards where contest was made
only one of their candidates was successful,
DIR. Thomas A. Keables, The result of the
election was a surprise to all, and 1t is more
than likely some dispute will occur as TO the
admission of certain members, upon the
ground of the illegality of the ballots used
Those of the Alumni Association candidates
were the regular size, o inches by B, while
none of the others complied with the law in
that respect. The seats, therefore, Of Messrs.
Reeve, Heisler, Feuckel, Brooks and Sample
are liable TO be contested. The question is a
fine one, and several prominent lawyers sug-
gest that now good opportunity presents
itself to have the question settled once and
for all by the decision from the court. The
Board of Education will meet tonight to
organize, when it is probable the intention OF
the Alumni Association will be made known
The total vote polled on Saturday was
,7S9, a falling off of 5S8 as compared with
that of last year, and of the whole number,
/ ,l23 were cast for the Alumni candidates.

We do not often make any editorial
mention Of the proprietary medicines

it to be a duty we owe to our readers to
call their attention to the advertisement
of DR.. j. G. Ayers Ague Cure which
appears in this issue of our paper.
We know from sad experience that
nothing is more disheartening than the
insidious approaches ana periodical at
tacks ofmalaripl and miasmatic disorders,
The remedy prepared by DR.. Aver & Co.
has been III use many years, and has
proved positive aptidote for disorders
OF this nature. 1t is withal, safe and
harmless one to take, being composed en-
tirely o. vegetable ingredients, without
either quinine or minerals, unlike other
so-c.lled A ne Cures, and consequently
incapable Of p'odncing the deporable
efftet~ 'rtEich follow the use of these drugs.
Our Western people owe debt of graft
tnde to DR.. Aver for the production of
this valuable medicine. Its timely use
will save much suffering, and we recon-
mend t with the greatest confidence in
its ability to do all that is promised for if.

MARRIED UNDER DIFFICULTIES

Inc rigorous marriage law Of Rhode
Island, which has now been in operation
SIX months. is an excellent statute, but it
sometimes puts parties who propose mat
rlmony to no end of vexation in comply
ing with its requirements. An incident
that occurred this week illustrates this.
A young man of legal age proposed to be
united in wedlock to. miss OF 20. The
minister had informed the bridegroOm-
elect that all it was necessary for him to
do was to file the usual intention at the
City Clerks Office. The marriage was to
occur on Tuesday evening, and in the
morning OF that day the young man ap-
peared at the Office and filled out tie
blank. The age of the lady was put ut
ZO, and the City Clerk informed him that
the written consent OF the father must he
furnished Here W; S a dilenim,. Z he
father dwells in New Brunswick, Can,
and the marriage was to occur that even
ing. The license could not be issued,
but a reception was set down for that
evening, and a postponement could not
be thought of. The City Clerk suggest
e ! that reception be held, and that
next morning the young folks could 90
~ FALL River, Mass, on Stonineton,
Conn, to be married The reception was
accordingly held on Tuesday evening,
according to programme, ana on Webnes-
day morning the the interested parties
proceeded to Fall River, where they were
duly married. The Massachusetts law
places the legal age of woman at Is
years, and so the young woman Of 20
could be married without the formal con-
sent of the far away parent, although
there was no doubt about his Willingness
to welcome the young mai as his son-in-
law.-Newport (R. ~ Mercmy.
