REPUBLICANS WON ALL.
Missoula Gives a Brilliant Victory t.

Missoula, Mont, March 2.-In one of
the hottest campaigns ever waged in Mis-
soula republicans yesterday elected their
full municipal ticket, including A. M
Stevens republican, over Sid j. Coffee,
democrat, by majority of Sc.
Wards: First-Andrew Logan, republi-

The sweep for the republicans was a
clean one as the contest was bitterly
waged by the democrats for the success
of their ticket. The result leaves de-
mocracy in condition where prominent
democratic party leaders are being openly
accused of unfair methods. The blow has
been so sudden that time must be neces-
sary to heal the bad feelings that now
exist in the democratic ranks.

suit can clearly be credited to the record

had been light. Democrats were loud and
wordy in boasts Of what their success
would be, alleging a laxity of work of
the republican city committee, and they
fully reckoned on success.
The work of the republican committee
has been one of the bright features of the
campaign. Under the leadership of
Chairman Joseph NJ. Dixon, no mudsling-
ing or personal assaults We're made; the
republicans pointing to their past envl-
able record in the city government as
their credentials for continuance in
power. Their work was noticeably free
from the methods pursued by the demo-
Gratis.
Last night a throng celebrated the cleo
ton outcome with bands, bondfires. seren-
AIDES, yells and enthusiastic Qualifications.
For two years at least the city is assured
of good city government, as one demo-
crat, Charles H. Marsh alderman of the
second ward, is the sole democratic rep
resentative in the councils membership
