has been warm and vigorous as every
citizen knows, and there are not few
who are glad the battle is over. There
has been elimination and recrimina-
ton on the part Of some of the candi.
dates, and how the city has escaped
disgraceful fights is mys.ery. The
canvass proper closed last night, or
rather this morning just before day
and at s O'Clock this forenoon the
several polls were opened and the
candidates and their friends got down
to old business, working like troians
for victory. THE News has kept men
at work all day at the polls closely
observing the progress of the contest
and what they gathered is given be-
low in an impartial manner. TIE
News has endeavored to be fair and
impartial in the canvass and the man.
agement believes it has succeeded.
The facts were gathered and reported
as the canvass progressed and no
candidate can charge that this paper
has not treated HIM fairly. 1t was the
purpose of THE News to allow the
candidates to fight it out in their own
way keeping its columns open to all
alike for advertisements of their claims
when they chose to adopt that method
of reaching the voters. The News
will cheerfully abide the result of the
election today, and whoever is elected
mayor shall have the hearty support
OF this paper in his efforts to advance
the best interests of Waco. Follow
ing are the reports from the several
wards:
FIRST WARD.
The polls were opened this NOM
ing at the city hall promptly at 8
o'clock, with j. H. Torbett, Judge;
A. Alexander, f. P. Massey, |. Joseph
and A. w. Harris clerks.
The candidates for alderman of this
ward, George Willig and w. A.
Poage were on hand and working
fully in their own behalf.
The principle workers are; George
Crippen, for Goode for mayor aud
Poage for alderman; George w. Davis
for McCullOch for mayor and Poage
for alderman; Sam Nalley, for Nc.
Culloch, Bunk Orman for McCulloch;
l.. A. Hinchman for Hinchmsn.
The voting was rather slow at first
but soon livened up and became quite
spirited
Up to 10 a. m, the time the first
installment of copy went into the
hands of the printers there had been
l44 votes cast ard four successful
challenges made, of negroes who at
tempted to vote illegally.
From indications McCulloch is in
the lead.
At p. m. At the time Of going to
press 435 votes have been cast in this
ward with strong plurality conceded
in favor of McCulloch. AS the day
wanes interest heightens and votes are
coming in at lively rate.
SECOND WARD.
At the West End up to 10 O'Clock
it appeared as if it was West End
sure enough. The friends of Judge
West were out in full force and were
confident of carrying the ward for
him. Large odds are given that Mr..
Lacy will carry the waru for alderman.

Inc general Impression is tnal
West will carry the ward.
THIRD WARD.
At 10 O'Clock this morning around
the Third ward polls, if one should
Judge by the noise being made, there
were only two candidates in the field
for mayor. The workers for Hinchman
and Herbert were making themselves
heard about equally, and stranger
would naturally ask, where were the
other msyoraIity candidates " This,
however, did not last all day. At l
O'Clock there had been 217 votes cast
and it was impossible to tell how the
respe otive candidates stood. THE
News reporter enquired and found
that each worker was confident his
man was in the lead. The Third ward
poll was presided over by Mr.. Charles
Motz with Messrs. M. H.
Standifer and j. r. Bennett.
as judges and Messrs. j. w. McWil.
liams and Smith Powell as clerks. The
voting was brisk at that hour and by
? o'clock there had probably been $50
votes cast. One man was challenged
at Third ward and perhaps there were
others but this is all THE News re-
porter heard of. 1t was stated that
the same party voted in the Fourth
ward, If so the matter will probably
be heard from again.
At 3 O'Clock AIS votes had been
cast in Third ward and the West me
were very confident.
FOURTH WARD.
The box has been crowded in the
Fourth ward all day. Every available
space in and around the engine house
was occupied by the friends Of the
candidates and others anxious to
watch the progress Of the ballot.
At 1870 this morning 240 votes
had been deposited and the voting
was progressing rapidly but quietly.
No disturbance of any kind was had
up to this hour.
At 2 p. m. alb nut $50 votes he'd
been polled in tho Fourth ward and
the friends of each candidate were
claiming that he wss ahead. 1t was
impossible to form anything like re-
liable prediction as to who was lead.
ing but from general inquiry every.
body was leading.
FIFTH WARD.
The Fifth ward poll is presided
over by W. D. Wallace as Judge and
j. R. Mobley, Percy McGhee, T. M.
Mullen and w. H. Turner clerks. All
is quiet on the east side and reminds
one more of Sunday than of election
day with its usual excitement At 10
a. m only 20 votes had been cast,
and neither candidates nor workers
were there. East Waco seems to be
left to take care of herself and it is
impossible to form any estimate of
which one of the candidates for mayor
is ahead.
Peace and quiet has reigned
through the day in this ward up to
this time, $40 p, m. bat l40 votes
has been cast, with plura lily con-
ceded in favor of Herbert with Nc
Culloch close behind him.

nights ago visited the house Of Chris

LONDON, Aug. 5.-Conferences between
the Irish leaders and Gladstone have re-
suited in such degree of mutual conf
dence as promises to greatly expedite the
advent of horne rule in Ireland. On the
acceptance of John Morley as chief of the
McCarthyite faction is laid considerable
stress. John Dillon today expressed the
satisfaction OF the Irish party at Morley 3
appointment. He would say nothing
about Gladstone's home rule bill except
that ID was likely to be one Parnell would
have accepted, adding that they would
take nothing less; that Ireland's represen-
tation must be as full as now. 1t Is ex-
pected the bill will be introduced as soon
as the house reassembles in January or
early in February. When the house of
commons adjourned today 3i6 members
had been sworn in.
Hardie, laborite member, with boorish os.
tentation walked up the floor of the house
with his cap on until called TO order by
the speaker, when he reluctantly took it
off. He has already acquired in the house
the character OF pugnacious lout.

owned By Feighan, Moore and Turner was
supporting Turner, the county was lost 10
the Republican party as the result OF .
little conspiracy for revenge Matched by
the latter trio. At the close OF the
campaign, when Ii was evident that
Wilson had heen knitted in his own party,
the Eepieu read Mr.. Turner out of IL. In
repeated editorials it accused him OF
treachery and personal sel6shness- IL
said, for example: "If any doubt has been
entertained in any quarter as TO the re-
sponsibility for the defeat of the Repub-
Ican party in Spokane county, it was
swept away by the e1a!tant tone OF the
miserable organ 1.-THE Globel that is under
stood to utter the venom of the Turner
faction of disappointed politicians. Then
it said: I'VE face the conclusion gained
from Mr.. Turner's own confession, that be
has no time for politics save where his
own name heads the ticket. That he Is
a Republican for revenue only. and
that he has retired to the delights Of pri-
vate life II, as now seems probable. Mr..
Turner has succeeded in blasting the polit-
fcal hopes of Hr. Wilson, he assuredly has
killed two birds with one boomerang. If,
es urged by his associates. it would be i'm
polite 70 advance NJ. Wilson for another
term or other honors, il would be rashiy
30 to think of putting Mr.. Turner up for
anything"
However, the party in Spokane is now
striving for harmony. and perhaps il is
better not TO dwell too long upon these
narrowing facts.

CALIFORNIA LAND THROWN OPEN.
l,SOO.OOO Acres In Humboldt County
Made Subject to Entry.

SAN FRANCISCO. Aug. 5.-More than a
million and half acres of timber and
grazing lands in Humboldt county have
been thrown open TO entry and sale by a
decision OF the commissioner of the United
States land office. The lands are in the
northern and eastern parts of Humboldt
county. In $50 survey of sixty-nine
townships in Humboldt county was made
by Surveyors Hoicomb and Buckley and
persons working under them. The lands
covered by the survey had not been pre-
viously mapped, and the county was prac-
tIcaily without inhabitants, although
known to be well watered, and in parts
heavily covered with the finest redwood
and other timber.
On account of fraud the government in
1887 withdrew from entry all of the lands
surveyed by HoIcomb and his party. Since
1857 the government land Office has been
investigating the surveys made in Hum
boidt county, and today the commissioner
directed Surveyor-General Pratt TO an
nouDce that the order of suspension had
been rescinded and that the lands covered
by II were now restored TO entry and sale.
Surveyor-General Pratt is familiar with
the sections now opened. and considers
them desirable. Water abounds all
through the country. Most of the land is
suitable for grazing. but there are many
thousands OF acres thickly covered by tim
Der. The land is all within the Humboldt
land district. and is reached easily from
the California Northern railway.

day night was hired in this city by John
Sontag.
Half an hour after Smith and Witty
had their encounter with the ROBBERS n
hundred men were in pursuit. but up to
the present moment the robbers have es-
capped. Witty was shot under the right
shoulder, the bullet coming out under the
left arm. His back and one side of his
face were well sprinkied with shot from
the shotgun. The cavity of the chest was
not penetrated. Detective Smiths wounds
were scratches. The opinion is general
that If Smith had awaited the arrival of
Sheriff Cunningham and Detective Thack-
e. the men would have been arrested.
Evans is well acquainted in the mount

upon reaching the timber he will escape.
