cay, 10 3244 for Bruce. Dem. This is a
smaller plurality for Wolcott than he
received. last year, and the result was
something of a surprise

about $500 in the city was satisfactory
to his constituents. The senatorial
district developed the only contest and
this brought out only an average vote.

plurality of nearly 1000 votes. All the
Republican representatives in the 18th
district received good pluralities.

easily carried by himself. He also car
ried Mr.. Archibald's own ward, (4) by
four votes. Ward went to Keyou
with "a votes. When Ward came in
giving Archibald 30S to Keyous 80 it

morrow.
