Local politicians are beginning to fig

election which does not seem destined
to arouse any particular general strife.
There are t. he elected eleven cUu0-
Cilmen from the odd numbered wards,

registers of voters and in Il few wards
aldermen.
President Mitchell, of the board Of
control, IS going 10 reside in Dunmorr.
and some one to succeed him will have

Common council at present contains
twelve Democrats and nine Republic
cans. The eleven whose terms expire
and their politics are as follows:
First ward. John }. Lotus. D."
Third ward. James j. Grier, u.
Fifth ward, Richard l.. Thomas, L,
Seventh ward. Michael +. Gilroy, d.

Seventeenth ward. George Keller. X.

In the above list are the names of four
Democrats and seven Republicans.
Republicans will surely be chosen from
the wards now represented by Republi-

onth and Twenty-tirst wards now rep

will probably return n Republican and
that party has fighting chance to bag

now represented by Lotus, an Inde-
pendent Democrat. in the Republican
column. the Democrats could have only
a majority of one vote, and If the latter
party had the TWepty-lirst also WreSted
from them the Republicans would pos

and the control Of both branches. The
select body is now Republican by one

The retirement of President Mitchell

be relied upon 10 elect Republican u

THE TICTORY IN ARKANS4S
New Orlerns Statesl

(AeW Or1bfnS DlhleSi
 The majority of 50, 900 which was cast yesterday for the Democratic ticket in Arkansas was the largest ever boiled in the State and larger than the total vote of Vermont, and it is quite safe to say that the shouts of the Republicans over their vic tory in the latter State will simmer down and peter out entirely before the setting of another sun. It was reply to the alleged Republican landslide in Vermont and one which shows that the South and the South west will be solid for Bryan in November
 Counties which have always been strongly Republican went Demo cratic, as did Populistic strong holds, and the majority for the Democratic State ticket is an in increase Of 25,000 over that given Cleveland in 1892. The Populists who two years ago polled 26, 1000 votes, did not support their own ticket vigorously, as they have done in the past, but on the contrary, thousands of them voted with the Democrats.
 The sweeping Democratic victory of yesterday astonished even the leaders, because the Republican State Committee which was well supplied with campaign funds, flooded the State with speakers and made every effort to cut down the Democratic majority to a small fig ure, hoping that the moral effect would be beneficial to Mckinley throughout the country, but they failed to make any gaps in the solid phalanx of the Democracy.
 The result of the State election will encourage the Democrats of Arkansas and in November the majority for Bryan will not be short of 75,000 and may even overtop that figure, as the Populists to man and a great many Republicans will vote for the Democratic nominee for President. McKinley's manag. CTS were jubilant over the Vermont election, but If they can find any thing in the increased Democratic majority in Arkansas to comfort them they are welcome to it.
