ONE DEM. LEADER
SAYS JONES IS IT
OFFICIALLY, HOWEVER, BOTH
SIDES CLAIMING VICTORY.
Republican Candidate Bases His Belief
on a General Observation of Condi-
tions and Upon the Significant Show
ing Made In the Primary Election
Haynes Claims Nine Wards.

The battle Of ballots on the morrow
will end one of the most warmly con-
tested mayoralty campaigns which has
ever taken place in Minneapolis.
General sentiment, even among many
democrats, seems to be that the exist
ing city administration is to be oyer
thrown and that D. P. Jones, the repub-
lican nominee who became candidate
after the urgent request Of a mass
meeting Of the business men Of Mime
apolis, will be the next chief executive.
The Jones campaign has been run by
a special organization cooperating with
the regular party organization thruout
the direction of A. M. Geesaman. The
Haynes campaign has been in charge Of
the democratic county committee, with
the chairman and secretary of that COM
mittee for the past two weeks, giving
but halfhearted attention to Haynes
interests. and most Of their energy to
their own private campaigns, each one
being democratic nominee for a
minor office.
The registration returns were in ia,
vor Of D. P. Jones. from the fact that
in republican quarters the registration
was heavy, and in democratic districts,
light. It is also evident, that the
fifth wards this year will be cut into
considerably, by an increase in the So
cialist1c vote.
Two leading democratic workers of
Minneapolis, men prominent in the ccoun'
ellis of the democratic county committee,
admitted today that their candidate for
mayor, J. @. Haynes, is defeated and
that the election of D. P. Jones, the
republican nominee, is assured.
7tJones is safe to get at least l,5OC
Majority said one Of these men.
A. M. Geesaman, manager Of the Jones
campaign, today gave out the following
statement:
"The trend Of matters political th!e
past ten days clearly indicates the tri
umphant election of David P Jones, re
publican candidate for mayor, on the
morrow by substantial majority
Should the elements be favorable fo
a heavy vote the ballots cast for ou1
candidate will be around the 25,OO(
mark. OF course to obtain this result
it is incumbent upon all the supporter
and friends of Mr.. Jones to be actly'
and alert until the vote is counted.
Zone extremely gratifying fact il
Mr.. Jones' candidacy is that his sup
port comes from 10 particular class O.
faction, but from all the people. The
stand for him because they believe il
him and the principles he represents.
"David P. Jones will give this cit,
on honest, common sense business ad
ministration along the lines of reason
ableness, and nothing of fanatica
character.

been promised by Mr.. Jones or mysel

DIVERS RECORD
How He Game to Vote for Jones Wine
Room Ordinance.

How He Game to Vote for Jones' W1ne-
Room Ordinance.
John Crosby Of the Voters league
has this to say in reply to Alderman
Dwyer's assertion that facts were mis-
stated concerning his record in the city
council in the address to voters issued
by the league:
The Jones wineroom ordinance was
adopted April 10, 1900. This ordinance
consisted Of two sections, the first, pro-,
hibiting winerooms, the second enacting
q, penalty for the violation of the ordi-
nance. The opponents Of the ordinance
made their fight on an amendment intro
duced by Alderman Rand striking out
section and substituting a section pro-
hibiting the presence of certain women in
saloons. The amendment, which in effect
killed the ordinance, received eight votes,
Alderman Dryers being among them,
with eighteen votes against it. The vote
on this amendment was the true test of
aldermanic convictions in the matter Of
the wineroom ordinance, and Dwyer was
one Of those who lined up with the saloon
interests.
Hopelessly beaten, four Of the eight
voted for the final passage of the ordi-
nance their object. of course. being to
save their records with their discriminate
ing constituents. Dwyer was one of these
four.
On the lighting question, Alderman
Dwyer voted in 1899 against resolution
looking to a reduction in the price of gas
from 81 to 80 cents per thousand cubic
feet; in 1901 and 1902 he voted against
resolutions requiring submission to the
voters of bond issue to provide mu,
nicipal electric lighting plant. and for the
contract for street lighting for the year
1902 he led the fight against further adj

DUST NUISANCE

Numerous complaints are made about
the dust in the streets and the aldermen
roundly scolded for not keeping sprinkl-
ing carts at work. AS a matter Of fact,
the dust nuisance is worse now than at
any time in the summer, as there has
been no rain for some time and the
earth is dry. When the. wind blows,
carpets, curtains and hangings are more
or less damaged, and keeping the house
clean is not an easy task.
There is little chance for relief. In
most Of the wards the sprinkling funds
have been exhausted and there is no
way Of replenishing them at this time.
The sprinkling season closed Oct. 10,
and about that time the waterworks
people turn the water off the sprinkling
hydrants in anticipation Of q frost.
Some Of the principal streets are
watered, the expense being borne y II \
residence streets there is little hope
FOR any more sprinkling this year.

Private detectives today completed
thoro investigation Of the registra-

fourth and fifth wards. The investiga-

the managers Of D. P. Jones campaign,

Jones success.
On Second street s and along Wash

date, but at even money there were not
sufficient bets on Dunn offered to
