Election day closed yesterday with a
record such as has not been made IN
Delaware for many years on similar
occasions.
From the time the polls opened,
shortly after s o'clock. until they
closed. at O'Clock in the evening,
everything was orderly and quiet in the
different voting districts in this city.
But one exception to this occurred
that being at A street and New Castle
avenue, the Fourth district OF the First
Republican district, where the negroes
tatempted to take possession, but were
suppressed after considerable trouble
on the part Of the police.
In many districts police protection
was unnecessary and all the officers
had to do was to remain over the
thirty-foot line and look on. AT nc
time during the day was there a rush
at the polls, and all who so desired had
full opportunity TO vote. By O'Clock
It became evident that over a two
third vote of those registered would be
pOlled, as many of the precincts were
within thirty Of their registry number
Colonel A. d. Chaytor and Captain
A. f. Matlack, appointed to receive the
soldier vote, sat at the barracks, No
300 Shipley street, and received the
troops ballots. Few votes were cast al
this place. the soldiers finding it more
convenient to vote in the districts in
which they lived.
SINGLE TAX VOTE.
The Single Tax ticket polled $50
votes in the city yesterday. Most cf
these came from the Democratic party.
1t is claimed by many Democrats that
number of Single Takers voted the
straight Republican ticket.
