Of tn ward has increased enormously

both parties are not certain where the

Fletcher. Eustis and the street railway
company were rolled into the Third
ward in the last week, and were not
merely tapped. but the heads were
knocked in, and the voters invited to
help themselves. The street railway
company was after the election of Dur
nam for alderman, and spent good
many dollars for that purpose. The Re-
publicanS also succeeded i'll capturing
"a large portion Of the Hebrew vote i'll
that ward. They will cut down the usual
Democratic majority, but they have lit
tie hope of carrying the ward. Jen-
ningS will surely be elected alderman,
and the other Democratic candidates
will go out Of the ward with majoritIes.
Ledgerwood, for county auditor. and
Heinrich, for register of deeds. viii
run ahead Of the balance of the ticket
in the Third.
The Fourth ward vote is very heavy.
This ward is usually considered re-
lia6ly Republican. About the only Dem
Ucrat who has hopes of getting plu-
ralty in the ward is Bernard Ctoutier,
the candidate for alderman. Cloutler
has made a hard canvass, and has
served the ward before. He received a
good many Republican votes, and will
crowd Adams closely, if ne be not
elected.
In the Fifth the conditions are about
the same. The ward casts a big vote,
and is a Republican ward. No estimate
can be made of the Republican plural
ity in the ward.
In the Sixth the Democrats received
all they counted on. p. b. Winston and
the other candidates for the legislature
got big vote in the Sixth. The Demo
cratic candidate for alderman ran be,
hind the ticket somewhat, but he will
be elected. Haugan. Republican can
didate for city treasurer, ran well. He
has done most of his work in the Sixth
ward
The Seventh will go Democratic.
Woodward was cut right and left
actually slaughtered. His own friends
gave up his election early in the after
noon. Shepley will occupy his seat in
the council. Nordeen, the other candi-
date for alderman, did better than
Woodward, but the Republicans
claimed no more than an even thing
between him and Gleason, and the
Democrats were confident Of the cleo.
ton of their man. The other Democrats
were we'll treated in the Seventh, and 1T
is probable that this ward will enroll
itself as Democratic.
The fight in the Eighth was over al
derman,of course, a three-cornered fight.
The Democrats are always ready 10
.concede the ward to the Republicans,
but this year there is chance for
Democratic alderman. The fight out
there was between Grimes, the straight
Republican. and Smith, the Democrat.
The Republicans claimed Grimes cleo
ton by plurality of 400, but they had
little to base their figures en-. Miner,
the independent Republican, was not in
the fight. He will carry couple OF
precincts, but that is all.
The Democrats will carry the Ninth.
They will not get it by the usual Demo
cratic majority, though. In this ward
the barrels of the Republican candi-
dates and the street railway company
behind jim BradiSh were wide open.
Bradish made hard fight for his life,
but. from the report received from there
late last night. he seems doomed to
defeat.

Dwyer, candidate for alderman, will be
elected. Eustis will run behind his
ticket in the Tenth. Up in that section
of the city live good many lumbermen
who have had business dealings with
Eustis, and they have worked against
him.
The Republicans of the Eleventh
ward were willing early in the day to
concede the election of Cheney for
alderman. BIchfeldt was not in the
race, neither was Skoog. Cheney ran
ahead of his ticket, but the other Dem
ocratic aldermen received good support.
Nobody paid much attention to the
Twelfth ward, where no alderman is
elected this year. The indications are
that the vote out there on other candl-
dates will be close, tut the Democrats
have the advantage.
The Thirteenth is Republican ward,
but will elect Democrat, Busch, to the
council. The Republicans have little
hope of electing Currier The other
Republican candidates will go out or
the ward with maioritieS.
