CARTER HARRISON, Jr.,
Elected Mayor of Chicago BY an Over
whelming Ma iority.

Elected Mayor of Chicago BY Over
wheIming Majority.
CHICAGo, April with the magic
of his famous fathers name. aided by
the independent split in the regular
repu blican ranks and the fioclling OF
the disconnected laboring class to the
standard of silver democracy, Carter
Henry Harrison was elected mayor of
Chicago Tuesday and a great demo
cratic triumph was recorded. The
5000 plurality of Mckinley over
Bryan was turned into democratic
plurality of about $1,000 over Judge
Nathaniel c. Sears, the machine re.
publican candidate for mayor. The
almost complete mayoralty returns
show that Harrison polled plurality
of about IS, 600 over the next best man,
Alderman John NJ. Harlan, a repub.
hcan who ran on the citizens ticket
by himself. The figures also indicate
that the next mayor polled a small
majority over all the other three prin.
cipal andidates-Sears, Harlan and
HeSing, the eX-postmaster and Ger.
man editor, whose ticket was called
Business administration of municipal
affairs" He is a gold democrat. but
his boosted strength among the indie
pendent men of both parties dwindled
to about 10000 total vote. Harrison's
total vote is about 40, 600, less than
5000 under the vote polled by William
j. Bryan. The republican total vote
is about 81. 600, while Mckinley polled
200, az votes in November.
The rest of the city ticket, attorney,
treasurer and clerk, all the town tick
cts and large majority of the COM
mon council have gone democratic on
the tidal wave, with the possible ex-
ception Of the Hyde Park town ticket.
Harrison carried every ward in the
city, and the republican machine was
repudiated everywhere. There is really
nothing left for the republ party
to console itself with, except a few
aldermen whose records were good
and who happened to live in wards
that are usually republican. The
argument of the Republicans that if
HeSing and Harlan, the two indepcnd-
ents, had withdrawn Judge Sears
would have won, does not hold good
when it is shown that Harrison has a
clear majority over all three The
other city tickets in the field cut no
figure at all.
There was joyful demonstration Of
democrats on the streets when the vic.
tory became assured, and thousands
gathered in front OF newspaper offices
to cheer Us the news was displayed.
There were impromptu parades, fire.
works and much cannonading.
Carter Harrison said of the result:
1T has been a victory of n united and
not divided democracy. Geld as well
as silver men cast their ballots for me
and registered protest against repub.
lican misrule The workingmen were
with me-"
Iheslate returns indicate that the
democrats. Will have 80 aldermen out
o. 6S in the council.

M'LEAN FOR SENATOR.

Does the Result OF the Municipal EIec-
tiOns in Ohio Indicate His Elevation?
CHICAGO, April IA special to the
Record from Gin cinnati says:
The result of the municipal cleo
tions in Ohio Monday shows democratic
gains. The large cities which gave
Mckinley such enormous pluralities
last November have gone democratic.
Mckinley had only $4,000 in the
state, and all of his plural.
ity came from the cities which
Monday went democratic. Outside
of these cities the state was carried by
Bryan last November in the free sill
yer district. and the friends of John r.
Mclean, who is the democratic candi-
date for senator, have made much COM
ment on this fact They claim that
Mclean will carry the legislature and
possibly the state ticket next Novem.
Der on the free silver issue.
In Cincinnati, the home of Senator
Foraker, repu blican plurality last
year of 20, 900 was displaced by dem
ocratic plurality of over 1000 In
Cleveland, the home of Senator Han.
ma, the democrats made large gains,
and even the home of President Nc.
The home of Gov. Bushnell at Spring
field is strongly repu blican and that
city Monday elected democratic
mayor by over 400. The metropolis
and the capital of the state went dem
ocratic, while the result in the smaller
places was still more decisive.
While the result in Cincinnati is due
largely to the opposition to George B.
Cox, who had become offensive as a
boss, the result in the state generally
is attributed to dissatisfaction which
is largely based on the continuation of
the hard times. There are many who
are suffering in business and many
more who are out of work who expect
ed relief the first month under the new
administration, and some express the
opinion that the free silver sentiment
is growing among these people.
The democratic gains were general
and about the same along the lake
shore as along the river counties and
in the interior. There was no special
action of the last republican legisla-
ture on which any issues were made
The man who headed the democratic
ticket in Cincinnati, Gustav Tafel, was
formerly republican, but became a
free silver democrat three or four years
ago, and is pronounced in his views on
that question.
He secured the vote of both gold
democrats and gold republicans be-
cause he represented the anti-Cox gang
in this city, and the silver question did
not enter into the elements that caused
the result here. 1t is stated by the re-
publicans that they have always lost
the municipal election after the inau-
guration of repu bican president.
