ton held to-day l,8I0 votes were cast, and
It has been figured that there was at least
600 persons not voting. This wou I
the population of the city of Fargo II, 00Q
The business mems ticket, supported by
taxpayers and energetic and progressive
business men, backed by the Daily Argus,
swept the city by maioritias ranging from
300 to GOO. The organ Of the whisky Demo
cratic-citizens reform ring, run by the
spiritualistic deadbeat from Maine aided
by Greenbacker fraud from Pennsyl-
vania. named Plummer, was laid com
pletely IL the shade. The Fargo RepubH-
can, owned mostly by Gill Roberts,
who was a member of the
last council, and is regarded
as being deep in the defurct commission
scheme for robbing the people, supported
the candidate of the doggeries and cattle,
and appealed to the worst passions of the
ignorant for support. 1t is claimed that
its candidate. Captain Egbert, had given
large sums to support the INDECENT, who
are thrown out of employment by stop
ping the iron works, but when it was
proven that instead OF his aiding the poor
he had been sued for his share of the as
sessmenfs due on stock he had subscribed
to support the institution, the only public
enterprise that has ever been supported by
Hall of the Republican and Egbert, candi-
date for mayor on the reform ticket, was
the water works, and both these cases their
stock was advertised for sale for non pay
ment of subscription due. 1t is the crowd
of opponents 20 progress that have been
sat down upon, and 1t is hoped forever
squelched. The Fargo band is out to-
night serenading the victorious candI-
dates, and Sheriff Haggarty says none of
them got away. 1t is believed the trium phi
of the business mems ticket has benefited
the city of Fargo hundreds of thousands of
dollars. as the better element has control,
and ringsters, dead beats and shysters
shelved. Or. Hall and his hummer asso-
ciate look blue and down at mouth.
