RESULT OF THE CITY ELECTION
SHOWS ENDORSEMENT OF
CLEAN ADMINISTRATION.
MAYOR REGISTERS MAJORITY
SURPRISE TO SOME OF HIS
oPPoNENTs.

Personnel Of City Administration For
the Ensuing Two vears-New Ad-
ministration viii Qualify In About
Two Weeks-Few Changes In City
Government.
The result Of the city election was a
distinct surprise in some quarters
where there was expressed In the
morning and through the day the ut.
most confidence OF the defeat OF Mayor
Register. His election by a majority
Of 36 votes, larger than has been given
any mayor in a number Of years,
proves hat the silent vote Of the citv
went pretty strongly for the indorse-
men Of the clean administration Of city
government which has been in force
the past two years. Mayor Register
carried three Of the four wards in the
city. Probably one Of the greatest
surprises wa the result In the first
ward, where the mayor had a majority
Of 81 votes, the most sanguine of his
adherents claiming only about % be-
fore the election.
DIR. Smyth also made a remarkable
run in the first ward. defeating his op-
ponent, Charles Blunt. by a majority
OF over 60, when it was expected that
ne would run behind the mayor.
In the Fourth ward there were only
a few more than ninety votes cast
against a registration OF over 40. A
close watch was kept on all voters and
everyone claimed to be voting Illegally
was arrested. There are now four or
Eve pending Of alleged illegal
voting, and the defendants are out on
1900 bail.
The new city administration will
take hold Of city affairs the middle Of
the month. AS elected IOr the enSN
ing two years the city administration
will be as follows:
Mayor. H. Register.
treasurer. E. Byrne.
Magistrate-John F. Fort.
Justice-ThOmas Sanders.
Aldermen First Ward-F. r. Smyth
and NJ. P. Slattery.
Aldermen Second Ward-Henry Tat
ley and H. L. Reade.
Aldermen Third Ward--D. j. McGil-
lis and ]. p. Jacksc;,.
Aldermen Fourth Ward-E. G. Pat

It IL said that among the arrests for
illegal voting yesterday was q per-
son who voted In two different coun-
ties last fall. ~
There were a few scattering votes
cast yesterday. In the Third ward
there were i've votes cast against p. e.
Byrne for treasurer and in the Fourth
ward for aldermen, Allen received 10
and Cunningham II.
The efforts Of Messrs. Allen and Gun.
bingham and thanks to . compromise
on the election machinery prevented
as large q vote in the Fourth ward a
wa expected-there having been 15C
votes registered and LEES than 100 cast.
A few arrests also had q wholesome
effect.

Election Aftermath.

Quietly and without any seeming
effort. Henry Tatley. by the use Of
stickers was overwhelmingly elected
alderman in the second ward. Mr..
Tatley is one of the most popular resi-
dents Of the ward and will doubtless
prove to be 3 good alderman. Mr..
Hoskins was placed On the ballot at
the solicitation Of friends who sup
posed there would be NO opposition
at least they knew of no other person
who wanted to run. Mr.. Tatley's re-
turn from the coast and expression Of
his desire for the place came after the
ballots were printed and too late for
Mr.. Hoskins. who was in no sense q
candidate, to get on the ballot. and
who would have been in favor of MI.
Tatley IL he had known he wanted the
place.
Now that the municipal election is
over it will be well to cease personal
tiles and present q united front for the
up-building of Bismarck.
The result was a rebuke to an ele-
ment that caters to lawlessness and
fiourishes only by its existence. The
Independent thinking voter is in the
majority in this city and any lingering
hope Of former l~aw.breakers to re-es-
tablish themselves in Bismarck may
as we'll be banished.
