BY MANY VOTES
Republican Mayor Returned to
0fice-1628 Votes Cast.
Mayor will Have Power to Appoint
0verseer Of the. Poor.
All Wards Go Republican Except Ward =
Much interest Aroused.

Augusta citizens polled heavy vote,
Monday, as had been anticipated
heavier if anything; and they re-
elected for another term, as mayor,
Gen. Winfield Scott Choate by the
handsome vote of 1025-a gain of 219
over the vote cast for him, last year
He has by Mondays election a MAORI
ty of 420. and a plurality of 459.
All the wards went Republican with
the exception of Ward Z. which went
for the Democratic nominations with
close majority of IA votes.
3 Lively interest was centered regard
ing the proposed amendments, five in
number to the city charter, relating to
the policy of power in the mayor to
appoint several Of the city officers with
power of removal, as has been fully
explained. and on which subject there
has been much study directed
The founth article, relating to the
poor department., was the only one
passed. By vote of 500 yeas to 263
nays. it was accepted by the citizens, a
majority which speaks for itself, as an
overwhelming balance in favor of the
change proposed, which provides that
|,
to be biennially appointed by the may
or and subject to removal by the mayor
and aldermen. Every ward voted for
this change, Ward l, giving it 1888 ma
jority, the vote there standing 306 to 233.
On the other questions the citizens
showed varying expression of opin-
ion. The fifth article was defeated by
a vote of 4S7 to 426. 1t was the one re-
lating to the creation of a board of
street commissioners. The first, relat-
ing to empowering the mayor to ap-
point and remove the city marshal:
the second. with power to appoint the
police officers: and the third, to ap-
point the city solicitor were all defeat
ed. THE main issue was on the change
of system in the poor department..

given below. give the story of the cleo

One of the most efficient conductors on
the Maine Central is John A. Mace, Jr..
who is now on the midnight run between
Bangor and Portland. On the night
trains at this season of the year the con-
ductors are often called upon to handle
some pretty tough. customers in the
shape of river drivers loggers and lum-
bermen and by the time they reach so
far down into civilization as Augusta and
Lewiston they have squandered SO much
of their winters wages in riotous living
that they are often quarrelsOme and
ready for trouble. 1t Is in handling such
people that the railroad conductor is
called to use all his latent powers of tact
and persuasion. Conductor Mace got rid
of rum befogged specimen of the genus
river driver in rather slick manner
from Lewiston to Augusta and by mis-
take took the Portland train at Bruns-
wick. AS soon as he struck seat in the
smoker after a brief and incoherent ha-
rangue to the rest of the. passengers. he

he took up tickets and did not want to

where you want to get off, my friend"
The friend was not SO much amused
at being aroused from his refreshing
siesta as were the rest Of the occupants
of the car, and started to expostulate
with the conductor for the interruption.
The conductor kept telling the man that
he had got to Augusta and that he want
ed to get off there, and he finally followed
muir. but he probably wondered at the
great change in the capital city when he
recovered from his drunken lethargy in
the morning.-Portland Express.
