y -sterday alternoon, the polls opening
As noon and closing promptly at 4
O'Clock. Prior to the hour of opening
those who had fights to make in favor OF
certain men were in the field armed with
bundles of tickets, the names on which
were not those selected at the caucuses.
Shortly afterward those who supported
the ticket as arranged at the caucuses
appeared in the field and distributed
their states freely. The fight commenced
early in the day, and continued actively
during the time the polls were open.
There were no actual hand-to-hand en-
counters, but there were many who felt
like engaging in something OF this KIND.
The votes cast were not very large, and
this was explained by the fact that many
of those who would have cast their
ballots could not leave their business
between the hours named, and there
was considerable dissatisfaction over
this fact. The "Court House Ring" and
the Union League Club members were
out in full force and some OF them were
very active in their movements. In the
Seventh Ward there was contest be-
tween three factions; one in favor OF +.
L. Buddinger, another for ex-Councll-
man ]. Lowell, and the other fol James
T. Brown. In this three-cornered fight
the Buddinger ticket won by sharp
management on the part OF some OF the
workers. These workers polled major
ity of the votes up to about 3 O'Clock, and
1t that time the crowd around the polling
place grew quite large and it was impos-
siblo to tell its complexion. The first
voters had been composed Of some OF the
worst element in the city, and those who
assembled there after O'Clock appeared
as if they might vote another ticket.
This could not be permitted, 30 one OF
the workers stationed himself at the
window and challenged every vote, de-
tanning the challenged parties as long as
possible. By this means considerable
time was consumed, and at O'Clock as
many as 150 people stood in line waiting
for q chance to vote. The polls did not
keep open for these, and in consequence
there were $50 people who felt disap-
pointed at the manner in which they had
been treated. In the Eighth Ward the
caucus ticket was completely knocked
out. The few who had met and placed a
ticket in the field evidently did not rep
resent the people in the ward at the
polls, for ticket made it's appearance
which carried everything before it..
Those who were left numbered
GA, but they said they were going
in the field independently. The Fourth
Ward ticket was compromise ticket
and it went through without much oppo.
sition. The names of Colonel l. R. Dun
kelberger and J. Frankenfield were on
the tickets for Councilman, with
instructions to "scratch one name off. "
Colonel Dunkelberger's name was
scratched the most, and in consequence
J. Frankenfield received the majority.
In tie Third Ward the fight was between
the caucus ticket and E. G. Burlingame's
ticket. The caucus ticket won with the
exception of two names, which were
defeated by only one or two votes. The
selection for Councilman for this ward
is in doubt. Major Bonsall, J. H. Book,
J. G. Byram and S. M. Caswell are can
didates for the nomination. In the Fifth
Ward A. G. Shafer will probably get the
nomination, and in the Second Ward G.
p. McLain seems to be ahead. A. N.
Hamilton has captured the delegation
from the Sixth, and r. E. Wirschiug is
the choice of the Ninth Ward delegation.
1t is said, however, that R. B.
Young's friends, who are legion at Boyle
Heights, are urging him to run inde-
pendently, with an assurance Of success.
