ENTHUSIASTIC ELECTION.

Mugwumps Downed-Republicans Jubi-
lant-Democrats Doiefui-Cow Men En-
couraged.
Dingusville Is ablaze with glory;
Col. Malone was yesterday elected
mayor Of this young and prosperous
city by an overwhelming majority.
AS soon as the vote was counted the
Dingusville cornet band was assem-
bled In full uniform and led by that
accomplished musician ] A. Macgregor
proceeded to the Nolan hotel to sere-
made the idol Of the day; Col. Malone
then appeared on the balcony and in
speech glowing with wit and repar.
tee congratulated the citizens of
Dingusville on their wise selection of
city magistrate and promised that the
ensuing year should be one of peace
and prosperity and that nothing less
than five-cent ante game would be
tolerated ip the corporate limits of the
city. He said he was pregnant-with
desires to better the condition of the
people of Dingusville and looked for
ward confidently to the day when the
many shrines of Gambrinus located
in that large and populous city would
display the seductive sign 1.-TWO for
Five" cheering the weary traveller on
his journey, and inducing the growth
Of hair on the breast of the patrons
thereof. Heretofore 1t had been his
pride to be designated In his travels
among strangers as 1.-The gentleman
from Illinois," but henceforth he
would renounce that appellation in
favor of the more noble and glorious
title, "His Honor the Mayer of
Dingusville." The eloquent speaker
went on to say that such honors We're
rarely conferred upon those in the
ordinary walk Of life aud that he
priced the distinction conferred upon
him by his honored constituency of
Dingusville, more than any other
mark of appreciation heretofore con-
ferred upon him by his associates any,
where. Yea, even more than the
presidency Of the ancient and honor
able ID. b. A. of Pana, Ill.-which
office he had held for years, by reason
Of his superior natural qualifications.
Col. Malone concluded his remarks
with well-timed, comprehensive and
thoroughly Ineligible invitation to
the assembled multitude to slake their
thirst, and as the crowd filed past
him, paying him the honors due to
his exalted position, he looked every
inch u mayor. The generous tinge of
crimson that tipped his aquiline nose
was thrown into relief by the rich
bronze of his cheeks and the sparkle
of his bright blue eyes, while the
broad expanse of forehead reaching
from the frontal bone to the occiput,
shone like the dome of a Moorish
mosque of sunset.
Colonel Childs, Charley Gould, Mai.
Fredericks and others were then call
ed on for speeches and responded in
glowing tributes to the personal popu-
larity and ability of the new mayor.
The Royal Bengal Tiger military as
semblage then adjourned to Dave
Browns popular ice cream parlor and
INDUCED at the expense of the mayor.
Dingusville is booming and evidences
Of popularity appear on every hand.
With strong city government her
future is assured. This always has
been and for years must remain the
largest cattle shipping point In eastern
Montana. The Iowa & Montana cat
tie company will ship twenty-five
cars tomorrow; E. Ramsey will ship
fourteen cars Thursday, the M c, N
and several other heavy shippers are
near at hand. Chicago market reports
give fc advance and cattle men are
correspondingly cheerful. CARL.
