and the Ward HeeIers Put in Hard
Days Work. The Returns
Are Sl-w.

Are Sl-W.
Yesterdays sky was without a cloud,
and there was a bracing quality to the
atmosphere that made the blood Jingle.
1t was an ideal day and the splendid
weather brought out pretty full vote
there was falling off from the very full
vote of August.
The day was as quiet as Sunday, and
except for the appearance of the stores
it might have been taken for holiday.
The saloons, of course. were all closed.
The Mayors court did not get a single
case during the day and the utmost good
order prevailed.
The vote was very gradually cast, just
about half of the vote having been polled
at 1 o'clock. The Democrats seemed to
have voted first probably on account Of
the interest they took in the Senatorial
primary.
=, The vote is very similar in all the
= city wards to the vote cast at August
election. They only ward in which there
was an appreciable increase in the vote
was the negro ward. This ward gave Ay
COCh UuI gave MChlulcy kUV
majority.
IN the afternoon the Simmons men
were iubilant, but last night when the
returns were completed, it was found that
he had only 255 majority in the city, and
the returns from the country precincts
cut this majority down considerably.
Bryan's majority in the county is about
700, while Mr. Pou's majority is not less
than 1900.
In the city precincts, Mr.. Simmons re-
ceived liza votes to $50 for Mr.. Carr,
giving him 255 majority. 1t will take an
official count to determine which carried
the county.
Mr.. Pou's majority in the city is 700.
Bryan's majority in the city is just
about $50. His vote ran along nearly
with the total vote for Senator, which
shows that only few of those who
qualified themselves to vote for Senator
by voting for the amendment and State
ticket put in the primary.
