Mayor-elect Award has been city treasu-
rer several terms and has lived a number
of years in the city; besides this there
was practically no issue raised except the
men themselves, and it was a fight as to
who was the most popular in the city.
The following is the vote on the several
Offices:
F. M. Award for mayor, rep, 274 votes;
F. NJ Higgins, dem, 219 votes.
For city treasurer, John Maxey, rep, 1872
votes; Daniel McElwee, 1853.
Police magistrate, w. Y. Smith, rep.
246 Jacob Didawick, 245.
For aldermen-H. Pietsch, rep, was beat
en- by F. G. Davidson, dem, by 2S votes in
the First ward. In the Second ward w.
M. hewitt, rep, secured three more votes
than l.. Kreuger, the vote being G5 to 60.
In the Third ward B. 7. Stanton, rep, Sc
cured 70 votes to 81 for T. Lewis. In the
Fourth ward Peter Koch secured practi-
cally the whole vote, as no candidate was
put up by the democrats.
The election is no criterion of the senti-
ment of Gallatin county, but it was sim
ply test of who was the most popular
man in the Judgment of the people. This
is shown by the closeness of the vote on
aldermen.
Mr. Award has been a city officer for a
number of years and has not been very
largely identified with politics except in
the city.
John Maxey was born and raised in the
Gallatin valley, and has held several po-
Sitions of trust, while w. Y. Smith is a
Grand Army man, and of course carried
that vote, as well as the vote of many old
timers, Though the democrats suffered
defeat, they do not feel disheartened.
The prospects, so far as can be antici-
pated at the present time, for another
good crop in the Gallatin valley are as
bright as they can possibly be. The fall
wheat crop was put in a little early last
year, but was dried out and number

EXTENDING ITS LINES

improvements.
WORK IS SOON TO BEGIN
Something Like $4,000 Will Be Ex-
pended by the Company-A Five
Cent Rate Will Be Made for
All Parts OF the City.

The street car company is almost
ready to begin operations on an extern
Eive scale in the way of extending its
lines. 1t will expend in the neighbour
hood of $150,000 in improvements and
work, it is expected, will begin next
week. While it is not given out just
what will be done, it is inferred from
casual glance at things that the extern
Bions will be altogether in the suburbs.
The company intends to inaugurate a
new departure in the matter of fares, a
Hve-cent rate to be made all over the
city, including Meaderville, Walker
Vile and all ether distant points.
The first construction work to be
done will connect the city by double
track to Columbia Gardens. Later the
Walkervil1e extension will be consid-
cred and active work begun. The exact
route over which the road will be
built is not known, and Manager Whar-
Ton is not prepared to- say anything
definite on that point, but it is a part
q of the company's plan to build to Wal
kerville this season.
The Columbia Gardens are now in
the hands of the street car company,
and will be transformed into an t.
tractive pleasure ground, where there
will be a small but interesting menag-
erie, boating, shooting gallery and
Dther outdoor amusements. A brass
band is to be one of the featurese. The
landscape decorations will be in charge
of Mr.. Mitchell. an experienced artist
in that line. 1t is expected to take
the lower part of the garden above the
little lake and plant it to grass and
flower seeds. The upper part of the
plat, however. will remain as it is for
the present. The management has con-
cluded not to- sell intoxicants on the
ground: therefore there will be no bar
on the grounds.
The contracts for constructing the
line to the gardens have been let and
the material is on the way from the
East. In fact the steel has already
been ordered before the court granted
the petition of the receiver to lease the
line.
Manager Wharton said yesterday
that it was his intention to provide a
place of outdoor amusement for the
citizens of Butte where they may en-
joy themselves to their hearts content
The company is going into the ven
ture with a will and an eye to the COM
fort and pleasure of it's patrons. The
large expenditure of money is an evil
dence that it proposes to do it's share
towards charging the city and con-
tributing to its welfare.
AS soon as pending arrangements can
be perfected cars will run from Center
vile through to Meadervile without
change, and the five-cent rate to be APP
piled all over will be in effect on this
long run.

The doctors say this disease very often
