The Democrats Wlra Attending Matt
nees and RiC9S Yesterday
AT THE VOTING BOOTHS
T emporarily the Republicans Are
Given Control of Municipal
Affairs In Soma Cities
in the East,

close TO 4O,O01; $50 precincts out a total of |
93S give Swift 126, les, and Wenter 5000. |
la addition to the mayor the republicans
have, the returns indicate, elected their
candidates for assessor, collector, super
visor and town clerk in all tho towns,
making n clean sweep of all the town
offices. or the aldermen, the republicans
have certainly elected 16 out of total 81,
and claim that they have fully
30 aldermen, but this is very
doubtful, the democrats claiming
Mt least 10 of them. Frank Lawler,
the ex-congressman who ran as an inde-
pendent in the Nineteeth ward, is elected
by a good majority. The proposition to
put the police and all other city officials
under civil service rules and extend the
mayoralty term to four years has un-
doubtedly been carried by IN ljority very
close to that obtained by Swift. At the
last mayoralty election, when Mayor
Hopkins was elected to fill the unexpired
term of Mayor Harrison, the democratic
plurality was 1921. At the last state
election from the same wards the plural
ity OF Wolff, republican candidate for
state treasurer, over Claggett, democrat,
was 44,065.
AT midnight no figures had been re-
ceived to change the estimate of the re-
suit made at 10 o'clock. The latter re-
turns show that George Trude, democratic
candidate for city attorney, is running far
ahead OF his ticket and he has an OK
cellent chance for election against West.
republican. The civil service rule has
been carried 10y a heavy majority.
