DEMOCRATS WIN IN ST. LOUIS.
Five Republicans and One Independ.
ent Candidate Elected.

ST. Louis, April Selection returns,
completed at 1880 this morning,
show that st. Louis went Democratic
by plurality OF over $4,000. Five
Republicans and one Independent
candidate were elected to the house
OF delegates. The other twenty-five
members elected are Democrats. The
Democrats elected their six candidates
for the city council. The Republican
and Democratic nominees for the
board OF education were elected and
the Democratic nominee for Inspector
OF weights and measures won. The Re.
publicans claim gross frauds were
committed at the polls.
1t is considered that the election re.
suits have been for the publication of
the lawmaking body of the city and
have swept out the combine" element.
Throughout the state the Democrats
lost in three third class cities that
they formerly controlled, but made
enough gains in others to fully pre-
serve their political equilibrium.
Municipal elections !. were held in
most of the Missouri cities. The Re-
publicans carried Jefferson City, Car
thage and Lamar. The Democrats
were victorious in Nevada, Mexico,
Rich Hill, Warrensburg, Kirksville,
Butler. Richmond, Excelsior Springs,
Moberly and Joplin, and an independ-
ent ticket won at Sedalia.
The most surprising Democratic gain
was in Kirksville,, which had been held
continuously by the Republicans for
more than forty years.
At Jefferson City the Democrats at
tribute their defeat to the enforcement
OF the Sunday closing law by the pres
ent Democratic administration.

Gotham Saloon Men Boycott Farmers.
New York, April S.-Resolutions
were passed by the Retail Liquor Deaf
ers' association boycotting all prod

The proposed boycott is the outcome
of the additional tax of s400 a year

about such boycott the saloon keep
ers have two objects in view, first, to
even up in measure long felt pref

and second, to so affect the pocket
books of the farmer that he will be
made to feel resentment at Governor
Odell, to whose influence the liquor
men attribute the passage OF the new
tax. The. Retail Liquor Dealers asso-

to buy no cheese from the New York

of dollars to him, and the boycott. if
