prudence on the part of the council
to heed the suggestion of City Engi-

STRENGTH OF THE INDEPEND-
ENT VOTE.

George Turner ran nearly $1,000
votes ahead of Judge Parker in this
state. Mead's plurality is little
above $4,000, while Roosevelt's plur-
ality is over $4,000. Nothing but the
irresistible and overwhelming tidal
wave for Roosevelt carried the railroad
candidate for governor to victory.
Charles E. Coon for lieutenant gov
ernor had a plurality of over $4,000,
which was 10000 better than that
given Mead.
On the whole the vote of this state
shows that independent voters hold
hte balance of power and that it will
be no easy thing for the railroad cor
porations to hold the people all sad
died and bridled for the bosses in
boots and spurs and with whips In
their hands to ride and drive. A
study of the vote shows that no state
of the Union has a larger proportion.
ate independent vote, and this fac1
bodies no good for the corporation
bosses in the future.
