Inc weather was beautiful, the peo-
pie good natured, and the election
passed off quietly with the following
result

From the summing up of the town.
ship vote we find that there were, at
this election, about 800 Democrats at
the polls, being nearly their full force
in the township, while there was only
about 2+S Republican votes cast, rep
resenting over u hundred less than
their usual strength at former elections.
Consequently, on strict party vote
the Democratic majority at this election
is 257 /; which shows over u hundred
more than it actually is in the town
ship; therefore to have elected any
Republican it was necessary that double
the usual work had to be done or in
other words to make it more plain so
many Democratic votes were needed
to elect that it was about the same
thing as persuading them, as whole. to
renounce their affiliations and vote the
minority ticket, but the modesty and
fairness of the Republican candidates,
even knowing the great odds against
them only attempted to secure support
by the most open and fair means known
TO political honesty.
AT this election to secure success was
n hopeless task and any Hercules of the
party can not hope for success in future
when so many of the Republicans stay
ut home.
The candidates on that ticket, in
future, under similar circumstances
may expect as the present ones have,
the usual exclamations, Up Salt River |!
Showed Under A Waterloo !! &c.
SCHOOL BOARD.
On Wednesday of last week, after
the adjournment of the Republican
caucus, u caucus was held for the pur-
pose of nominating school board ticket,
which resulted in the selection of G. f.
Chapman (Rep.) and C. A. Hampton
(Dem.) On Saturday the Democrats
after the close of their township eau
Gus, endorsed this ticket. There were
some dissenting parties, however, and
the result of the matter was, that after
the close of the Democratic Corpor-
ation caucus, Saturday night, another
ticket was placed in the field, bearing
the names of F. G. Eberly and George
Whitman, and this ticket proved to be
IL winner, as the following figures will
show:
G. f. Chapman, 147 F. G. Eberly, 297
CA. Hampton, 141 G. Whitman, 240
In the election of members of this
board, politics should be laid aside, and
the general welfare of the schools
should be the only consideration.

TWO BEERS OR NOT TWO BEERS
was the question that settled the fate
of the Republican candidates for Mayor
and COuncilmen. AT least that is what
the new Mayor says, and we have no
doubt he knows what he is talking
about. The three new Councilmen-
Messrs. Rheinfrank, Bowers and Mum
ger = are gentlemen of ability and
thoroughly conversant with the needs
of the village.
In the race for Marshal, the little

who was beaten by good majority in
the Republican caucus desired revenge

neither beneficial TO himself nor his
party, but resulted in the election of q
Democrat.
The village Treasury was apparently
willing to be placed in the hands o.
either party, but finally decided by two
votes to remain in Democratic hand,
and Cash" Hampton secured it. Mr.
Danz made gallant fight, and came
