Surprise PARTY.

Yesterday morning our tOwnsman,
Justice Quinn, had pleasant caller in
the person of one, S. B. Adams, late OF
Co. L So n. Y. Infantry, now of Sphinx
county, Dakota; and this morning F.
L. Wright, of Salina, Kan, walked in
on both Quinn and Adams.
These three named enlisted at
Friendship. Allegheny county, n. Y,
in 1861, and fought many hard battles
together, Capt. Adams commanding,
and were together all the time for
three years, until the whole company
was captured at Plymouth, n. c., and
have never been together until today,
just twenty-four years last month since
J. z. Quinn and F. L. Wright have
seen their old captain. No family ties
seem stronger than those of old soldiers.
J. z. Quinn is as happy talking over
old times, as boy with new top.

THE REPUBLICAN NOM
INEES ELECTED WITH
BUT ONE EXCEP-
TON.
The Great Click Organ Fails
to Capture the City
Government.
THE WILL OF THE PEOPLE
SHOWN BY THE RESULT.
The Vote, as gathered From the Re-
turns Sent in From the
Various Wards.

Yesterdays election was complete
victory for the Republicans, and clearly
shows that the great Democratic organ,
the Abilene Gazette, has not yet &C
ouired sufficient influence to control
the elections of Ibis city.
Early yesterday morning it was PLAIN
to be seen that the strenuous efforts
put forth by the Gazette, to capture
the city government, would meet with
ignominions defeat, and that the can
dIdates placed in the field by the Re
publican caucuses last Saturday even
ing would meet with but little resls-
lance. Therefore, when the votes were
counted last evening, it was not sur
prising to learn that the result of the
contest was complete victory for the
Republicans-the entire Republican
ticket. with but one exception, being
elected.
The TRADE made against Prof.
Jewett in last Sundays Gazette was so
disgusting to the citizens of Abilene in
general that even the Democrats turned
against that organ, and in several in
stances the candidates nominated by
the supporters of that paper refused to
accept the nomination and declined the
honor. In the Second ward the Dem
ocrats, after Mr.. Brilliant declined to
run on the Gazette ticket, nominated a
Jewett man for a MEMBER of the Board
of Education-in direct opposition to
the Gazette. 1t is plainly evident that
the Click organ Overdone the thing,
and that the people rose up in rebellion
and elected the men of their choice.
We give below the result of the cleo
ton as cleaned from the returns from
each ward:
