TUE CITY ELECTION.
Success of the Democratic Ticket.

Success of the Democratic Ticket,
Election day at the polls was exciting;
although the day was quiet one. Both
parties were fully organized, and there was
no lack of carriages and workers. In fact.
the workers seemed toe numerous for first
class hus ling and it is question whether
one vote in five was influenced by their pres.
enoe The vest pocket vote was as large, II
not larger, than at the fall election Of 'SS,
and the straight tickets were very numerous.
All wards but two, the first and second, gave
Sherwood majorities all wards but three
went for Leahy, and all wards but two were
tor Madden.
The first ward Republicans were so conf
dent Of success on the aldermanic contest
that they allowed the work to lag somewhat,
and threw their best card for Catlin, but a
warning word at three o'clock saved the
Democrats the trouble of serenading Haight.
Corcoran, of course, had no opposition.
In the third ward ii was early given out
that certain Democratic influence was be
ing exerted to attempt the shelving of Ma
her, but just about this juncture the sand
boat came down and the Hon Dan went in
with his usual liberal majority.
In the fifth ward the cause of Mr. Xellers
was given up as hopeless case early after
dinner.
