Kelly and Glover Added to the
Democratic Elections.

was so general and piquant yestarday that
the attentionsto the local election became
almost incidental. Neither Democrats
nor Republicans would admit the defeat
of the Presidential candidates of their re-
speetive parties and neither would grant
the election Of the opposing party candi-
date. The interest was undated ut mid
night and the small majonties reported
from New York kept everyone in constant
anticipation of some decisive tidings. All
returns received up to the hour of going
to press are reported elsewhere in THE
LEADER this morning.
The crowd at the Republican head
quarters and at Col. Merrin's was large
until shortly after ~ o'clock last night,
when the irst dispatch announcing
Cleveland victory was received. Many
Republicans Immediately disappeared
from public view, and when, n few min
utes later, another dispatch added to
Cleveland's gains, a general walk-off fol
lowed. Five minutes thereafter the Re
publican headquarters were deserted and
closed, and, save a few jubilant Demo
Gratis, not a man could be found at the
resorts where the Republicans have con-
gregatcd.
In the Laramie county election the
Democrats will secure a fair proportion
of the county officers, The election of
Craig as Sheriff is admitted. Both II. B.
Kelley Democrat and R. F. Glover,
Democrat) have doubtless been elected
County Commissions. The Board Of
Commissioner will probably consist of
Kelly, Glover and Hoyt. W. w. JEFF
frey as Assessor and Judge Bean, as JUS
tice Of the Peace. are considered com
paratively sure of election. Tho com
plete Republican victory has therefore
melted away considerably, for the Demo-
Gratis gain one County Commissioner,
thus having a majority. They gain the
Sheriff, perhaps one Justice ofthe Peace,
and on a party vote the Assessor, while
the Prosecuting Attorney is not settled,
and the Superintendent of Schools and
Coroner not decided. 1t will thus be
seen that the Republican can boast
only gains in the Legislature, which must
be granted to them.

o'clock last evening, concluding their la
