THE CITY ELECTION.
MAYOR CROMBlE land CITY JUDGE
PECK HANDSOMELY REELECTED,
The city Overwhelmingly Republican
and the Democrats Hopelessly Divid-
ed-Alderman Storrs Reelected in
the First Ward and Alderman
Painchaud in tho Second No
other Ward Contests.

Tuesdays municipal election resulted
in victory for respectable government
Mayor Crombie and City Judge Peck being
reelected by surprisingly large majorites.
Mr.. Sutton made the greatest effort Of his
life in his attempt to reach tho mayor IS
chair 1t was glorious failure, and as a
candidate for the mayoralty Mr.. Sutton
may now be regarded as back number.
Mr.. Hare was told for the second time that
the people of Burlington did not require his
services as city judge and the re-
buke was so emphatic that he is
likely to receive a lesson from it. To the
credit of many democrats be 1t said that
they repudiated the nominees of their party
and either voted for the republican candi-
dates or remained away from the polls alto
gether. Two years ago when there were
two candidates for mayor and city Judge
the republican majorities were - and 10 re-
spectively. Yesterday the majorites were
224 and 256. The only other real struggle
was over the office of alderman from the
First Ward and there the contest was not
on party lines but over two worthy repub
licans. 1t resolved itself into the
question whether or not Alder
man Storrs was deserving of a sec
ond term and a large majority OF
the voters declared that he was. Mr.. Taft
has done good service for the city and hi,
ward as alderman in years past and tn,
opposition to him was in no sense of per
sonal character. He made as good a run a:
any man in the ward could have made un-
der the circumstances and his defeat is NJ
discredit to him.
The Second Ward is SO overwhelmingly
republican that Mr.. Stockwel's candidacy
for the office of alderman was only mat
ter of form and Mr.. Painchaud was re elect
ed by large majority.
The story OF the other wards is quickly
| told Alderman Rand was reelected in tn,
Third Ward, the republicans making nj
nomination. Il. G. Severson was elected
in the Fourth Ward without opposition OF
| the part OF the democrats. Alderman
| Lyman was not opposed by the demo
Gratis in the Fifth Ward. c. T.. Allen, j. r
| Kelley and w. II. Lane. il, were elected
school commissioners in the First, Thir,
and Fifth wards, respectively, without op
position. The voting list contained 1868
names, and the total vote cast for mayor
was 1858, showing that ~ voters failed t.
exercise their right.
The general result is one that cannot fai
to be very gratifying to all who have tn
best interests of our city at heart AL
these, be they republicans or democrats
will say that it was glory enough for on
| day.
