Filled by Democrats.
A Synopsis of the MsJorities-vsxstious
Complications of the Returns In
Some Csscs-Points About
tho Local Victory.

The city had quieted down consider
ably Yesterday after the scenes of excite
ment of Tuesday and Wednesday, al
though the great Democratic victory wac
productive of joyful faces in every nook
and corner OF the city.
Bulletins continued to be received yes
terday from the east and were displayed
on the HERALD bulletin boards, around
which crowds gathered during the day,
as the details of the landslide continued
to accumulate.
The Republicans generally accepted
the situation with elegance and grace,
contenting themselves with the sinister
congratulation that they were glad the
victory had been so complete, as long as
it had to be victory, so that the Dem
ocracy would be completely responsible
for the administration OF public affairs.
In local affairs the Republicans were
not so clipper in accepting the result.
The figures in the county showed such
a decided rebuke to those who have ad-
ministered the county affairs that the
average Republican seemed dazed over
the grand awakening of the people, and
could scarcely summon up ghost OF a
emile when treated to the usual badin.
age and chatting of the victors.
ARRANGING TO RATIFY.
The Democratic county central COM
mittee met yesterday and decided to
have the ratification of the victory Sat-
urday night, and have arranged for one
of the grandest affairs OF the kind ever
held in this city. Trains from outside
towns will bring immense crowds, and
suitable provisions will be made for
special trains.
The ratification will include parade
and exercises at the pavilion.
Martin G. Marsh was appointed grand !
marshal for the parade, and named
George Roberts his chief of staff.
The parade will form around the inter
section of Sixth and Main streets, and
the line of March will be north on Main
to the plaza. south to Spring, down
Spring to Fifth street, and to Hazard s
pavilion.
THE RETURNS.
The returns from the county were not
completed during the day. All the re-
turns are at the clerks Office, with the
exception of La Liebre and Catalina
precincts. The election boards failed to
fill up the blanks on the outside OF the
returns in precinct /. city, Del Sur and

not materially change the result of the
vote in the county, and any change will
be in favor of the Democrats.
The returns were badly bupgled in the
vote for the candidates who were on
tickets. The election boards in many
instances added these two votes together
and endorsed the total outside the re-
turns, in some places also inserting this
double total in both spaces, go that the
totals in these cases do not give an ac-
curate compilation of the vote. 1t will
be impossible to give the total Populist
vote in these cases until the returns are
opened. The balance of the ticket,
however, indicates the general result.
THE VOTE.
The total vote cast in the county as in
dicated by the vote upon the national
ticket and estimating the missing pre-
cincts, is 21, 700, which falls some 5000
votes short of the total registration. II
there were 1000 fraudulent registrations,
it would still be 1000 short.
In the city the total vote, estimating
the First precinct, was 10,450, and in
the county, 1880.
