GEO. w. DorY OUR NEXT MAYOR.
Result of the municipal Election

dtLeHueu with less than the usual fric-
ton, and the contest being mainly di-
rected towards the minor ward officers
ana the result in one or two instances
was very close. A peculiar situation
occurred in the Third ward where VIM.
Hutson was nominated for alderman
against his wishes and made an effort to
have his name taken from the ticket,
and having filed. his declination too late,
was elected by three votes.
The vote cast was not as large as a
year ago but singular as it may seem the
exact number as was registered in 1899,
56o votes. Geo. W. Doty proved popu-
lar candidate, winning out by SO major
ity, the largest ever given republican
nominee in the city for office of mayor.
There was no opposition to w. Ell.
Clarke for assessor, FL. Ell. Dickinson
