.F|)R HONEST COUNCIL
Chicago .Gangsters' Generally De.
feated in the Election Of the
City Council.
Municipal Voters League Succeeds
In Electing q Majority Of It's
Candidates
Results In Illinois. Wisconsin and
Nebraska Mayor Rose Wins
at Milwaukee

Chicago. April "A very light vote
was cast at the city election yesterday.
The contests We're chiefly aldermanic,
altho in each OF the various townships
an assessor, collector, supervisor and
clerk were chosen. The chief interest
Iscentered in the aldermanic vote. Thir-
8ty-f1ye of these, as usual, made clean
sweep, electing the entire ticket.
The municipal voters league made a
strong fight against the "gangsters and
grafters." The league endorsed thirty
nine aldermanic candidates and repudi-
ated twenty-one. OF the thirty-nine
endorsed nineteen were elected, and OF
the twenty-one repudiated twelve were
elected.
Much interest conferred in the fight
in the Second ward. where Mayor Har-
3rison made strong fight for G. F.
lGunther. the democratic nominee. Gun
Their was beaten by w. II. Thompson,
republican. by 400votes. Both were en-
dorsed by the league.
The republicans carried South Town,
the town of Hyde Park and the town
of Lake View. while the democrats car-
Tried the north and west towns and the
town of Lake.
In the city officials chosen the repub-
licans secured nineteen and tine demo-
Gratis sixteen. The old city council
contained thirty-two democrats and
Ithirty-five republicans and one inde-
pendent. The new council contains
forty republicans and nine democrats,
making an additional. member OF the
council.
The Record says edltorially:
The election of yesterday insures a
good council for the next year. On the
whole the incoming body ought even to
be an Improvement over its prefleces-
sor. There We're disappointments in
some wards. to be sure. as was TO have
been expected. but the gains more than
counterba!ance the losses"
The Times-Herald says:
Once again the voters OF Chicago
have proved that it is only necessary
for them to receive proper information
regarding the character of aldermanic
candidates presented to them to exer-
else a decisive choice for honesty and
decent civic government.
AS between the parties the republic
cans appear to have rather the best Of
~, having elected seventeen or eigh-
teen tos fifteen democrats. This will
probably result in the organization of
the council on a nom bipartisan basis
and certainly blocks any hopes Mayor
| Harrison may have harbored OF q dem.
lSocratic organizatior."

History of Trouble Witch Led TO De.

History of Trouble Which Led to De.
struction of Bunker Hill Mine.
Washington, April A. Frederick Bur-
bridge. manager of the Bunker Hill
and Sullivan mines, was the chief Wit
ness at the Occur dAlene investiga-
ton yesterday. 1t was the mill of this
company which was blown up in the
uprising last April. Mr.. Burbridge gave
a history of the labor troubles from the
time he took charge in 1898 up to last
April and said there had been continual
threats to clean out the Bunker Hill
mine. These threats continued, he said,
uu to the time of the elimination of the
agitation last April. The miners union
at Wardner met on Sunday, April eS, a
week before the explosion, and sent a
delegation 10 him (Burbridge) to de-
mand $3.50 a day all around. After
fruitless conferences a strike was or
dered. The Bunker Fill employees We're
stopped on the road by an armed mob,
revolvers We're tiourished and the work.
men Were chased thru the streets. La
ter in the day an armed mob took pos
session of the franway. of the mine and
held it for a time.
Mr.. Burbridge said he received free
lsquent Warnings that he would be killed
and the mine blown UP but declined to
give the names, saying it would iinper..
the lives of those who gave the warm
ings. The Idaho courts had upheld him.
he said, in this refusalto divulge names.
Mr.. Burbridgc told of the Warming
messages received by him, of the arm
ing Of 500 men. the putting on of masks
and the details Of the march on the
Bmill.
Mr.. Burbridge said he took such pre-
cautions as We're possible for the pro-
lection of the mill and then, believing
f that he would be an object OF special
attack. he left the mill and did not see
the explosion.
The witness said the presence of the
military was essential to the mantle
nance of peace; the only objections to
the military came from those who
Wished to break the law. On cross -ex-
animation it was brought out that the
company discharged men when it was
Learned that they belonged to union.
The witness said there was such con-
tiict between the union ard non-union
men that the company took its side with
the non-union men. declining to employ
members of the union.
He conceded that the non employ
ment of union men might have embit-
tered them
