Fourth MunicipaI ward.

It was so quiet in the Fourth muni-
cipal ward that nobody would have
suspected state election was in prog
ress, unless he had been informed of
the fact. The voters came slowly to
the polls, mostly on foot, and but few
carriages were in use. The ladies of
both parties served refreshments at
the various polling places, and the
woman vote was quite large, in. many
places exceeding that of the men, The
total vote was very light, so marked
was the apathy that by o'clock not
to exceed as per cent of the total num-
Der registered in the ward had voted,
and at that hour the Democrats claim
ed to be in the lead by $50, While the
Republicans genrally conceded that
the Democrats had carried five out of
the seven polling districts. From q
o'clock till the polls closed the workers

NEW YORK.
Roosevelt Elected and Carries New
York by 5000 Plurality.

York by $4,000 Plurality.
New York, Nov s.-Midnight.-
Theodore Roosevelt Republican,, late
colonel of the First United States vol
unteer cavalry, has been elected COVER
nor of this state by a plurality any
where from 1900 to 10000 All Colonel
Roosevelt's associates on the Repub-
lican state ticket are probably elected
with him. The returns, both from
Greater New York and from the cOun-
ties outside OF this municipality, are
incomplete, but enough have been re-
ceived to indicate a heavy falling off in
the vote up the state. while that in the
cities was well sustained. The conse-
quence is a falling off in the Repub-
Iican plurality in the state from 212, coo
to the Appropriated figures given
above Outside OF Greater New York
the vote for Van Wyck is only about
one-fifth Of ! per cent above that Of
Porter in 1896. There appears to be
loss Of four Republican congressman
in the Brooklyn district, the Second,
Fourth. Fifth and Sixth: and Congress-
man Quigg, who had majority of
about 5000 at the election last year,
has been defeated by William Astor
Chanler. In the Albany district, the
Twentieth, GIynn (Democrat) has been
elected to succeed SOuthwick (Repub-
lican).
In addition to the foregoing. there
are. seemingly, Democratic gains in
the Eighth and Thirteenth districts,
both in this city. Daniel J. RiOrdan be-
ing elected in the one and Jefferson NJ
Levy in the other. This makes a total
Democratic gain Of seven congress-
men.

on both sides made an effort to get the
voters out. and things were little
more lively, but by the time the polling
ceased it was estimated that not to eX-
coed 60 per cent of the registered voters
had availed themselves of the great
privilege Of American citizens.
A great deal of scratching was done,
probably not more than nalf the votes
cast being straight. People generally
appeared to know little about the con-
stitutional amendments, and many neg
lected to vote on them at all. Scarcely
a vote was challenged at any of the
polling places in the ward, and nc IN
usual incident occurred.

WALTON CLAIMS THE STATE.
Ran Behind In Salt Lake County, But
Ahead Outside

At o'clock this morning Wesley K.
Walton, chairman Of the state Repub-
lican central committee. claimed the
election Of Eldredge and Zane by a
small majority.
1.-THE state is certainly safe" he said.
1--WE have carried most of the outside
counties and the result in Salt county
win be so close that we viii come here
with votes enough to overhaul
ance it. We have carried San
Dete by from 300 to 500 ma
iority. and Juab by about 200. Cache
county is ours by a small margin, and
the latest returns show great gains
in washington. Eldredge and Zane will
carry Summit by about $50. Rich is all
aEight. Grand, Carbon and Box Elder
ssge claim. while Tooele and Iron are in
dpubt. Beaver we viii carry by small
majority. The returns from Morgan
and Wasatch are meager UP to this
hour. but sufficient to indicate that
they are in the doubtful column.
1--WE certainly claim the election of
the state ticket
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1898-11-09

out of $50 registered votes, only 2G2
were Dolled. Down in the Thirty-sec-
ond, Eli Follands precinct, 254 votes
We're cast, of which SIS We're straight
Democratic and 90 straight Republican.
In every other district of the ward,
however, the straight Democratic were
in the lead.
It was noticeable that the women
turned out well in the Third, and a
conservative figure places the women
vote at 80 per cent. The ladies did
much to tighten the work of the tellers
and judges, as in most of the districts
they served refreshments during the
entire afternoon.
Very few votes were challenged, and
the election went off about as quietly
as it is possible to imagine.

How Results Are Viewed By Respec-

Washington, Nov. 9, l a. m.-Chair-
man Babcock of the Republican con-
gressional committee has made the fol-
lowing statement to the Associated
Press: while 1 am satisfied that the
Republicans will control the house OF
representatives in the Fifty-sixth con-
gress, it is impossible at this hour to
indicate what our majority in the
house will be.
Thus far we have no definite returns
from Illinois. Wisconsin, Minnesota,
Iowa or Kansas. Ohio has elected 10
Republicans certainly, and two districts
seem to be in doubt From Michigan
the returns indicate q solid Republican
delegation. Representative Hawley is
elected in Texas, Vincent Boering is

In the Third municipal ward the vot-

none of that old-time spirit manifested.
The Democratic organization was per-

as indicated by the light vote, the peo-

pressing its satisfaction in the form of

inasmuch as they forecast the almost
certain election Of Hayward CRep.) for

verdict OF 1896 by nearly 5000. The
count thus far is wholly on governor,

INDICTMENT PREVENTED.

Francisco Lopollo's very keen anxiety
to leave this country and return To his
mother home in Italy did not appeal to
Judge Wilbur very strongly this morning.
for his honor sentenced Francisco TO six
mouths in Jail Tor an assault with "a dan
gerous weapon on Angelina Lopollo.
Some time last fall there was a row on
Spruce street, Francisco explained, and
five men attacked him and one OF the men
accidentally got cut. Angelina walked
painfully up College hill TO tho court
house this morning and In ths court room
he was tent over ana looked like n physi-
cal wreck. He was going peacefully
along Spruce street OH the night that
Francisco SAWS live men attacked him.
The grand jury polieved ADgelino's story
that Francisco cut him without any prov
ocation, nor did Francisco contest the
stats's case to-day for he pleaded nolo con-
tenuere.
His attorney Harry g. Curtis. told
Judge Wilbur that Francisco had ticket
purchased for "a trip tn Italy ana begged
tho court Ia be indulgent with his client.
His honor had not heard that Angelina
contemplated n trip also so ne imposed
the sentence above named.

The following opirion has been handed
down in the case of John B. A Alien, execu
tor, VS.. Elon u. Matteson ct al by the

press charge of the annuities on the real

misappiied ana wasted by the exccutrix,
YVES more than sufficient To pay oil the
annuities. We do not think that such
charge can be raised by implication, al
though the will contains what is in effect
residuiry clause which proved impera-
tive. We ceciue. therefore. that Thomas

We started business with the
idea Of keeping our Drugs up to

the old axiom, Better the
grade, bigger the trade" has
applied well TO our business.
We believe it is far better to
sell good goods, and make a
small profit, than it is to sell
poor goods and make a big
profit-it pays iii the end-it
has paid us-and it has paid
our customers. We guarantee
all of our Drugs to be absolute
