the engine station on Cross street yester-
day, and resulted, rs was predicted by the
TRIBUNE, In walk over for the Repub.
lican on the regular tickets. The TRIBUNE
announced In yesterdays issue that the
Democrats had no ticket I'm the field, and
that announcement was correct. A ballot
headed variously; democratic, ""Repub-
lican" "Independent,, and "Citizens" was
created Ia some dark lantern fashion by
as peculiar political combination as was
ever formed.
The ballot was fearfully and wonder
fully constructed and copies OF II should
be rescued from the ruin In which Il was
engulfed at the close OF the polls last eve
ming and saved for the enlightment OF
coming generations. No cabinet OF
curios In Lincoln, public or private, will
hereafter be complete unless It contains
one OF these ballots. No student OF town
politics can ever hope to graduate until
hethoroughly he understands the why and
wherefore OF the splendldly spitefui,
spleeny ticket.
Promptly at 2 o'clock the polls were
opened by Moderator Freeman and voting
commenced. The regular Republican
ticket was handled by the regular Rspub.
lican workers. The other Republican Dem
ocratic Citizens Independent Mongrel.
Nondescript was circulated by John
Bloomfield, James II. McGlynn, Robert
Gilchrist, James +. Degnan, Louise Blair,
and several other citizens who hold vary
ingipolitical opinions. Teams were en-
ployed to bring In the freeman and ballot
ing continued steadily until eight O'Clock,
when the polls were closed.
Quite number Of citizens waited until
after O'Clock to hear the following state
ment OF the result made by the Moderator:
Moderator-E. l.. Freeman 1876; Clerk
{. A. Reynolds 4s8; Treasurer-C. p. Moies

and Joseph Beaucage; Commissioners OF

ing.
Aswill be seen by the figures, the ia
therless ticket received on an average a
trifie over 138 votes. or these the greater
portion were cast by straight out and out
Democrats, who were. misled by false
statements OF certain persons to the ef-
feet that the ticket was gotten up by and
had the full approval OF the Democratic
Town Committee. These statements were
totally untrue and were known to be so
by the persons who made them. The
Democratic Town Committee Is not nom
mating any such ticket az the one In
question anda large majority of the mem
bers OF the committee would take to the
woods rather than vote either ticket Of
fered to the electors yesterday.
Enjoyable AFFAIR.

Those Pumpkin Seeds.
Patt Bros, newsdealers, cut their
and counted the seeds last eve-
ming at their store on High street. The
seeds numbered 573 and this number
was guessed by John Girvan OF Garfield

They are, therefore, both entitled to first
prize.
