Pittston, Feb. 19.-Today's election
was a spirited one. Three tickets We're
in the field. DR.. Charles j. Barrett
was the Republican candidate for
mayor and Burgess Thomas Maloney
the nominee of the Citizens and Dem
ocratic parties. The latter won by a
plurality of 4O2. The entire Democra-
tic ticket went through with him, by
lesser pluralities. Harding, Citizens,
for controller made good run, but
was not successful in overcoming Haga-
dorn's lead. Lowell, the Republican
candidate, made strong race, consid-
ering his opposition. The new councils
will be heavily Democratic on joint bal
lot. The complete returns by wards. so
far as received up to the hour of going
