SUPERIOR, Wis, April 6-Charles
). Starkweather was today elected
mayor of Superior under extraordinary
circumstances. Two years ago, when
the incumbent of an Episcopal pulpit,
he was elected mayor After occupying
the office for four months, he was i'm
peached by the common council, be-
ing charged with extorting money from
f1remen and policemen, and was re-
moved from Office by vote of II to
1. This judgment was affirmed by the
supreme court of Wisconsin. In the
present campaign, Starkweather ran as
an Independent candidate against
Perry ]. Ekstrand, the Republican
nominee, and William Munroe, who had
the Democratic and Populistic nomina-
items. No newspaper supported him,
and he had few helpers to make speech
es for him. He carried on the cam
paign single-handed, and has ma
jority over the combined vote of his
two competitors.
