WINoNA, MIMI, April 2.-The cleo
ton to-day passed off quietly, the Dem

an average majority of about 400. John

over Capt. Vansant. NJ. Ii. Sharesy has
45S majority over j. II. Nagler for as
SCISSOR, and Louis Sikorki for treasurer,
$50 over Wilson c. Brown. The Fourth
ward was the only thing that saved the
ticket. The Republican candidates
went out of the first three wards with
nearly $50 majority, but the Fourth ward
came to the front with Its
old-time majority, and sent the
Democratic ticket through a flying.

Ludwig receiving 1,461 and Capt. Van
SAINT 9S2. There were some ballots
thrown in the Fourth ward which Mayor
Ludwig says will be included in the
final count, making his total majority
5l3. The returns in the ward offices
come in slowly, as there was a good
deal of scratching. In the First ward

derman over H. w. Johnson by 80 ma
jority. In the Second ward d. E. Vance
(Rep.) defeats Henry j. Herman by 81
votes. Herman Borth (Rep.l, in the

0nd1 by 10 votes This is

They lost two school directors. X. NJ.
Whitney, Democrat, is elected school
director in the First ward by "a ma
jority over John L. Harris. In the Sec
ond ward c. c. Clements, Republican,
had no opposition. In the Third ward

bly, elected over Charles Horton. In the
Fourth ward, Alex Milanowski, Demo-
crat, has $50 majority over August
Riech. The proposition to improve the
water works by expanding $4,000 was
carried by big majority. Mayor-Elect

the Polish band. He made brief
speech. Mr.. Ludwig said there was
determined opposition, but to tell the
