THE ELECTIONS !

The local campaign has been one of
considerable interest and excitement all
the way through. The heated contest for
the nominations left the people in state
of partial excitement which kept the po-
litical sea in turmoil until the close OF
the polls. The bad weather was source
of discouragement, but men remained
about the polls all day in driving snow
storm, and good vote turned out. There
was considerable scratching, and a great
deal of quiet "vest-pocket'' voting. There
was seemingly a total disregard of the
Mayor's Proclamation against barterlng
or giving away liquors, and aslarge num-
Der of men made friendly calls" at places
where drinks are kept. Yet there was
no disturbance, and not much noise until
after the ascertaining of the. result. Then
the boys1et themselves out, and shouted
until they were hoarse. Jared Martin,
who beat Owens for the Office of Marshal,
was formerly policeman here, and,
though perhaps having faults, like other
men, wasga fearless and faithful officer,
generally speaking. Owens retires after
serving five terms as Marshal, having IN
that time battled some tough characters
in preserving the peace. He was police
man under Marshal Easterling, and after
ward defeated Andrew Johnson, Benz.
Trago, Lucius Reed, George Goddard and
Jared Martin, for Marshal.
Mr.. Jones, Mayor-elect, is young man,
has been voter but few years. and has
splendid opportunity for advancement.
The people will look to him for vigor-
Gus enforcement of the laws.
One thing might as well be understood
Just now, once for all. The sober, intel
kge1at people Of this toao'a aoiH q''t'a 1T. We
have had occasion to impress this fact
upon officials and candidates heretofore.
No party can get so strong, and no candl-
date so strongly intrenched in office, but
that there is danger of a sudden and Wig
orous punishment for neglect of duty.
The candidate is dlaooys dependent upon
the people. 1t is very easy matter to
get candidates. The day for gang-work-
ing in politics has passed. The people
will vote as they choose. Men are Repub-
licans from principle, and Democrats per-
haps from cussedness, butneither side can
be compelled to vote a certain way by
sleek schemes formed in places not fit to
be visited by gentlemen. There are men
who see something better in politics than
drinking and carousing, and these are the
men who will control political action. 1t
is of no use to kick against the inevitable.
Let the new officers keep out of the dog
geries. No officer has any business in
such place. All the people ask is that
officers do their duty. This they will de-
mand-and this they will enforce.
Mr. Washam takes the long term as
