RESULT OF FINAL CANVASS
City Clerk Frank Andrews Completes
the Canvass of Votes Cast at
Tuesdays City Election.
DEMOCRATIC JUGGLING is ATTEMPTED
Pressure Brought to Bear to Defraud
the Two Republican Candidates
Elected in the Second Ward of
Certificates of Election.

City Clerk Frank Andrews canvassed
the vote cast at the city election on Tues.
day last, yesterday afternoon and the re-
suit appears below. Strong pressure was
brought to bear on Mr.. Andrews to
withhold certificates of election from the
two Republican candidates elected in the
Second ward, it being claimed by some of
the Democratic politicians, who care
morsfor political success than for honesty
and decency, that an alleged omission in
the Republican ticket of that ward gave
the clerk as canvassing officer, power so
to do. Mr.. Andrews, however, looked up
the law, satisfied himself that he was
simply ministerial officer, was firm in
rejecting this evil and bae advice and
performed his duty as the law required
and as an honest official should. He did
not issue certificate of election to Mr..
Salazar, one of the Republican oandi.
dates in the Fourth ward for alderman
because he considered that the Office was
not vacant and that W. G. Hemingway
was still in Office, he having written to
the mayor that he expected to return tc
Santa Fe soon.
