Victory, a grand, glorious victory,
has been achieved by the Democratic
hosts. After years of defeat upon

had become almost exhausted and
discouraged in an unequal contest
with a thoroughly entrenched party,
the proud, unconquerable old Dem

foot and dragons all along the line.

Hendricks the friends of honest gov
eminent find reason to rejoice.

They will paint the town red to-
night.
The Democrats elect the Member
of the Council, two out of the three
Members of the House, County Com
missioner, Probate Judge, Treasurer:
Clerk and Recorder, Assessor, Sur
veyor and Superintendent of Schools.
The majorities of some of the candi-
dates are paralyzers, that of Nj.
Daniel J. WEIGH, for Treasurer,
reaching nearly a thousand MI.
Eugene Sullivan, on the Peoples
ticket, is elected Sheriff, the Repub-
licans taking one Member of the
House and one or two minor offices.
In view of these grand victories

fy their eagles to night and jubilate.
A grand torchlight procession will

and after parading through the prin-
cipal streets of the city will come to a
halt in front of the court house where
prominent speakers will make short
congratulatory speeches: The court
house will be illuminated from base
ment to dome. The city will be a
blaze of light. All the business
places on the principal thoroughfares,
and many private residences
throughout the city will be illumi-
mated. Many Republicans have
kindly consented to join in the cele-
bration to the extent of Illuminating
their buildings. A large cannon has
been procured from Deer Lodge and
will b. heard in voicing the great
victory.
All the livery stables in the city
have kindly rendered the use of their

ton. Captain Shepherd will have
