it escaped The buggy was smashed to

THE ELECTION.
A Heavy Vote Being POlled i'm oil the
Wards.--SOme Figures.

Despite the cold chilling wind which
makes it exceedingly disagreeable to be
ont of doors, heavy vote is being polled
at the different precincts in this city.
Each party is working industriously
which accounts for the heavy vote. At
p. m. 261 votes had been cast in the
Third ward; 1928 in the Fourth ward; 265
in the Fifth ward. AT 2 p. m. 179 votes
had been cast in the Seventh ward. All
the students at Augustana college and
Theological seminary were allowed to
vote, so we are informed. A heavy vote
is expected in this ward before the clos
ing of the polls. There are are over 800
legal voters in the ward.
In the First ward at $50 100 votes had
been cast An outrage was perpetrated
in this ward this morning. Albert Young,
a democrat, was not not allowed to act as
clerk of the election, and a republican
was put in his place, making two repub>
lican clerks They were not even going
to allow Mr. Young to vote, but he finally
cast his ballot All this because Mr..
Young has been out of the ward for a
short time on account of frozen feet
which have been troubling HIM since last
winter.
Second ward at 2:45 p. m. 265 ballots
had been cast The full vote is being
brought out.
At 2:45 in the Sixth ward the total
votes cast amounted to 172 This is a
very slim vote for this ward
Attempted frauds were noticeable at
different voting precincts. AT the Fifth
ward polls it was discovered that Cleve,
land and Hendricks tickets were beng
circulated with the names of the republi-
can electors neatly pasted over the names
of the democratic electors. Some
scratching" was done, but not as much
as had been anticipated. 1t is thought at
different wards that the full vote Of, the
city will be gotten out before the polls
are closed this evening.
The crowds around the voting precincts
have been small today on account of the
raw wind that has been blowing all day.
Voters would cast their ballot quickly and
so on about their business. Everything
has passed of quietly and without the
least excitement or hard feeling 50 far as
has been heard at this writitg.
DAVENPORT.
4 message from Davenport says that a
Tremendous vote is being polled in that
city today Hundreds of men clustered
around the polls despite the cold weather,
and hard work was done in the Interest
Of the democratic ticket Hon J. H.
Murphy's majority for congress is csu>
mated at not less than 1000 in the dis
trict, while the entire county democratic
ticket will be elected By large majorities.
