ogden, Nov. Ga big slump sur
Drising all parties resulted in the cleo
ton Of the entire Republican ticket
The Democrats did not secure even a
councilman. Glasmann, the lowest man
on the ticket, is elected mayor by a
majority over Scowcroft Of 237, while
Moyes. the highest, has l $40 over God
dard. The result was almost as much
of a surprise to Republicans as to
Democrats. When the polls closed odds
of two and three TO one were freely
offered on ScowcrOft's election, with no
takers. He carried his own ward and
made a splendid run considering the
general slaughter, but no amount of
personal popularity could stem the
tide, Two factors entered into the re-
suit The people were influenced large
" By the prosperity argument OF the
Republicans and in a unit were voting
again for Mckinley and Roosevelt.
Again, the bitter feeling aroused
against the water company and the
hope that if one party be given COM
plete power the city might recover the
system, carried much weight The first
factor was shown in the large per-
centage Of straight ballots cast for the
Republican ticket.
Bob Moves ran, as usual, like an ex-
press train, and had another phenom-
email ma ority of 1872
For auditor Mrs. Brown beat Mrs.
Miller by 31S. but except in this race,
and in that between Glasmann and
Scowcroft. thsre is nothing that at all
approaches Democratic success.
Council is Republican.
The Republican councilmanic ticket
went in by handsome majOrities. the
candidates in the Fourth having the
closest runs with majorities of over
fifty.
George w. Jones was showed under
in the Second by nearly 300 majority
and his running mate, Hanley, by a
still greater slump.
For the first time since the division
on party lines Ogden City has been
to med over entirely TO officials of one
party. This party is pledged to recov-
er the waterwOrks system and interest
ing developments may be looked for.
The vote for cOuncilmen was as fol-
lows:
First Precinct-Carr 66S, majority 1873:

statements From Chairmen.
It would have been impossible 10 find
in Salt Lake last night a happier man
than Dennis c. Eichncr, chairman of
the city Republican committee. we
asked the people for an endorsement
and they gave it to US handsomely"
said he. I am more than satisfied
with the result We won because we
were right and the people are always
with a righteous cause. I wish to
acknowledge my appreciation Of the
good work done by our campaigners
and advisors The campaign was free
from anything OF an offensive nature
and was absolutely clean from start
to finish"
Chairman FOulks was cheerful in
spite of the landslide. We were beaten
chiefly because we didn't have enough
votes he said, smilirgly. we en-
tered the campaign on a good platform
ana we made a clean fight. The people
have decided against US and we must
subrIit as gracefully as may be. The
Republicans used every possible means
TO carry the election for they feared
that i the Democrats won the city
they would be handicapped an their
fight next fall. If that feature had
been omitted, the result might have
been different"
The election ali over the city passed
of quietly. There were no disturb
ances Of any kind although numbers of
interested workers were out on both
sides. a compared with the vote last
year a light total was cast, but it went
$50 above the vote of two years ago.
BY precincts the mayoralty vote was
as follows, the Thompson vote being
given first in each instance:

in all Of the districts a large percent
age of scratched tickets was voted and
except in districts 4, 5 and s the num-
Der Of votes pOlled was surprisingly
light. The percentage of scratched
tickets was large throughout. The
abundance Of money at the Republican
campaign committees command and
its superb organization with an army
Of workers and carriages gave an early
indication of what would probably be
the result, It is stated by those in a
position to know and not denied that
the Republican committee spent $500 in
district TO swell the majority for
Thompson. Other districts had almost
as much money circulating in them for
election purposes.
Besides rolling up a Il ger majority

a new member by majorities ranging
around 400.

"I certainly have had supporting me

assuming that our platform expressed
the desire of the people respecting Ger

BURGLARS STEAL $4,000
WORTH OF DIAMONDS

Cincinnati. Nov. 5.-Early today
burglars broke the big show window Of
the Duhme Jewelry company's store
on Fourth street between Vine and
Race, and stole about $4,000 worth of
diamonds. In their flight they left a
tran Of diamonds indicating the direc-
ton they took.
The nightwatchman who was on the
floor the robbery took place, says he
heard no noise and saw nothing of the
robbers. The diamonds stolen were
loose in tray and the burglars are
supposed to have taken advantage of
the noise of a passing wagon or car to
break the glass and seize the tray and
run, as they overlooked much valuable
goods in the same window.
