The Entire Democratic City
Ticket Elected.
Four Aldermen, four Superyis-
Ors, four Members of Board
Of Education, and four Con.
stables elected by the
Democrats.
Republicans elect only two Aldermen,
two Supervisors, two Members Of the
Board Of Education, and two
Constables.
The Democratic Majorities on City
Candidates Range from 1873 to
273,

| The new system Of voting was tried for
the first time by the electors OF this city
last Monday, and every intelligent citizen
is well pleased. 1t Is much superior TO
the old system. It has destroyed the
power and influence at the polls Of ward
heelers, hoodlums and other disreputables
who, in the past, have Welded great in
fuence. Their disreputable trade is
abolished, and the polling places will no
longer be polluted by their communicating
influence. 1t also puts an end to the
employer bulldozing his employees. 1t
puts a veto on bribery, intimidation and
bulldozing, and every respectable citizen
rejoices over the success Of the new
system.
OF course, being a new system OF voting,
many mistakes were made, and some were
by very intelligent and well informed per-
soma, who marked their tickets wrong,
A number of voters lost their votes, as
they failed to put any mark Oh their bal
lots, and the inspectors had plenty Of
work In posting voters as to how the bal
lot should be marked, There Is no doubt
but that many ballots were so marked
that they counted different from what
they were intended. All the information
derived regarding wrongly marked ballots
Is from the statements Of the persons who
cast them, as they told about IL after
wards, when they had become better ed
ucated In the new ballot system, and many
are the jokes related at the expense of
electors. II we had room we could fill a
column OF amusing incidents In regard to
queerly marked ballots.
Until the ballots had been counted, no
one could tell how the result would be,
or whether candidates were being cut.
Old politicians were bewildered, and the
hummer element was at discount.
It was one OF the quietest elections
ever held In this city. The day was
wet and gloomy one. Rain fell part of
the day, and a heavy fog prevailed. BY
8 o'clock In the evening the political fog
cleared away, and then II was found that
the Democrats had made clean sweep of
the city ticket, and had elected large
majority Of the ward candidates. Anota-
BILE run OH the Democratic side was that
Of Frank White who was elected Alder
man In the Second ward
The following will show how the voters
cast their ballots at the charter election

sean de seda es muy subido, rela.
tivamente al cost0 de dichos artf-
culos, que en- las classes ordinarias
no llega al dob,e del aforo f.; basta-
ra fijar LAO y Sl.2O por docena,
En- las pinturas al 6leo ell tanto
por ciento sobre aval1o, que SO es-
tablece como aforo, es bastante al
to. 81 ell gusto artlstico, que es
una de las mas grsfioas comproba-
clones de progreso, ha de desarro-
llarse, precise es faoilitar la adqui-
sici6n dc buenos modelos, sobre to,
