and resulted in the unanimous election Of
the ticket nominated at the Democratic
primaries last week, viz: Mayor, j. K.
Hood Aldermen, r. E. Ligon, G. w.
Evans, w. F. Cox, C. s. Sullivan, j. M.
Smith and F. G. Brown; School Trustees.
J. A. Brock, T. F. Hill and G. F. Tolly.

many forgot the date and place Of election.

in auy of our elections, for it is treading
on dangerous ground.
