These are the two tickets from which
the voters in to-days election will make
their choice for mayor and aldermen.
There was the liveliest sort of a hustle
among the politicians yesterday
They were moving from place to place
holding conferences, bolstering up weak
supporters, and endeavoring to win con-
verts with promises of money and other
I Low IL Aios many VI L4lS WI hdlS l4l not
attend the rallies last night. They We're
out on the outskirts holding smaller raj
lies and exhorting the colored voter to
support their ticket. Many of the workers
did not retire after the meetings were over
either, but remained up a good part Of
the night, making arrangements to get
to the polls cary this morning, especially
the doubtful ones
There will undoubtedly be a good deal
of money used in the election. There is
no doubt that the law intended to prevent
the purchase of votes, or rather to pre-
vent the purchaser from knowing if the
vote has been delivered as per contract,
will be evaded if possible
The managers received the books of reg
+ istration and the ballots yesterday after
noon, calling at the Office of the clerk of
the ordinary's court for the former and
the office of the clerk Of council for the
latter. The books were sealed just as
they We're when they We're returned to the
ordinary's office at the close of the regis
tration, The ballots were neatly done up
in sealed packages of 1000 each, with the
number of the precinct for which they
were printed on the package The man
ayers were sworn to deliver both ballots
and books with seals unbroken at the
polling places at s O'Clock this morning.
