YESTERDAYS ELECTION.
Welch, shiebe and Stevenson Elected
to the City Council.


One Of the most quiet elections ever
held in the city Of Astoria took place
yesterday. Three couhcilmen were
elected, and the same number OF gen
tlemen who hoped to warm the chairs
In the council chamber these cold win
ter months, were elected to remain
common. ordinary citizens for at least
another year by which time they will
possibly have ample time to reflect on
the trials and trlbulatlons that beset
the pathway of the man who seeks
public life.
AT the first precinct in the first
ward, Shie5e workers were out early
and remained at their post till the last
chic n had gone in to roost They
Nd[dn' allow vote to escape, which is
appa ant by the returns. His friends in
the second precinct were equally as
Jealous, and knew pretty close to the
result when the polls closed at o'clock.
The most hotly contested race was in
the Second Ward. Mr.. Welch had his
termination to win or go down with
colors flying There were plenty of
Zeigler men on hand. and one or two
of them worked as If it was a case of
life or death. At noon the latter par
ties were in high glee, and made such
boastlng that Welch stock declined as
rapidly almost as did the barometer in
Observer Growers office last Saturday.
There was one man, however who at
least in his own estimation, rated
Welch stock at par, and that was Mr..
Welch himself. That gentleman wore
perpetual smile during the whole live,
long day He darted here and there
among the men who were over 2l
years Of age, and had a vote to cast,
and greeted one and all of them Just
as If 1t was a settled fact that he
was going to receive their franchise.
He didn't get all the votes, as the result
shows, but he got enough to make him
the happiest man in the Second Ward
last night.
In Uppertown Gramms and Seiverson
had a close race. First one would have
a lead of one or two votes, then the
other would exchange places with him.
The Republican candidate dropped be-
hind two votes at the end of the race !
not a bad beat, but beaten just the
same.
There was more interest manifested |
last night in the result than during the
whole day, and perhaps the ones who
were the most anxious to know who
mere the victOrs were the parties re.
naming away from the polls during
he entire day. Following is the re-
'ult of the contest in the various wards:
First Ward-Polling place, No. 2 En-
