The Election.


are closed up and the streets pretty
well deserted, all the men nearly, who
are not out at the fair, being at tho
polls to vote or stand around "lookors-
OIL in Vienna or working for their
favorites. The local candidates are
putting in their heaviest and best
ticks, and are button-ioling every
man they meet, soliciting votes and
urging their friends to work hard.
The friends of every candidate are
asserting earnestly that he is in the
lead and sure to be elected; that a
very tidal wave is sweeping him into
Office, and there is no use to lose your
vote by giving il to some one else. In
the justices race perhaps the hardest
work is being done. Very few seem
to doubt the reelection Of Justice Il.
&. Il. Kendall, but for the other justice
there arc scores Of workers diligently
and earnestly using every endcavor to
defeat the reelection of Justice
Schulz. On this account great
many of the out-and-Out Schulz con-
tingcnt, who are for him under any
and all circumstances and against
anybody, are single shotting him.
That seems to be their tactics, and by
it he will be greatly strengthened. j.
C. Bigger has taken away large por-
ton of Schuhls strength, and there
are scores of Democrats, who, ignor-
ing party lines in petty offices, espcci-
ally where ii is "free-for-all' race,
are voting for Mr.. Bigger to beat
Schulz and because they like him
personally and know him to be well
qualified for the Office.
1t will be 10 or II o'clock tonight
before the votes are all counted out
and probably not before tomorrow, as
there are so many tickets and candi-
dates. There are three State tickets
and innumerable, almost, candidates
for the various other offices.
Hon. Lock Mcdaniel spent several
days in the city last week, making
many acquaintance among Demo-
Gratis and Republicans and
producing a favorable impression Oh
all The probability is that he will
run ahead Of his ticket here and not at
all improbable that he will do so
throughout the state. The following
arc the officers conducting the election
at the different election precincts in
the city.

At IL o'clock not one-fifth of the
vote had been polled. The outlook
for fun vote was very discouraging
at that hour, and not few of the can
didates had long faces on account of
it. If the turnout from IL o'clock to
the closing of the polls is not rush
ing one the result will doubtless be
the carrying of the city by some can
didates who ought not to be elected.
All who have not voted, on reading
this article, should hurry up and do
so. Everything has been exceedingly
nuief and orderly at every voting
