the First ward. Snyder was elected in
the Second ward by three OF four hun

the rest.

on his hands of any of them. 1t looked,

1,00S; Smith, the Democrat, $50. The
Grimes men are sore over their defeat.
They aScribe ii all to Crimes misman-
agement of the campaign. He was con-
tinually making breaks, so much so that
he lost votes every day. The Miner
men at first intended to celebrate their
victory by Il tOrchIight procession past
the residences of the chief Grimes men.
They have abandoned that plan and
will content themselves with Il recep-
