Russia we're expected to accept

acts of the government, to obey

were supposed to be so childlike' so
uureasoping, so mentally dense as
to have neither interest nor night
In anything beyond unquestioning
aoquiescence In whatever trans
pired. The Cars advisers desired
that this policy be followed out In
the matter of the present war with
Japan. They considered 1t extreme
ly dangerous that the masses be
permitted to know aught Of the
war beyond the fact that they were
to 20 to the front and fight when
ordered to do so.
The Emperor, however, decided
to test the loyalty of his subjects
by giving them the fullest informa

censorship CT the press and has
permitted his people to know the
truth. Unfounded rumor and
journalistic sensationallsm have not
been permitted. and all the official
reports are given out freely. No
effort has been made to disguise
the truth that so far fortune has
not smiled on Russian arms. The
masses are full aware that the
japanese have been getting the
best of the struggle.
The result has been as the car
predicted, His subjects, with the
exception of those who are always
on the outlook for anything which
will lead to revolution, accept the
confidence with pride and take
every means to express their loyal

the innovation and the government
has taken an advanced step from

In the future We hope the COM

iset to post the result of the elec-
ton, as the law requires, on the
front doorof each building In which
said election Is held. The com
missioners failed to post the result
last evening In the third and first
wards. Many people visited these
precincts early this morning and
naturally were much disappointed
at not finding the result posted on
the buildings.

Heading a ticket "Citizens,"
instead of Democratic, is a rank
failure. We predicted it would be.
Sailing under false colors never

Six hundred and forty votes
were counted for Mayor. The
vote shows an increase over last
year of about 100 votes. Sisters
vile has been growing during
the past year. One hundred vot-
ers means an increase IN our pop
ulation of 600 men, women and
children. These are figures no
one can deny.

tree that has no blossoms. An ap.

associated not only with our child
hood and that of four our forefathers
but traced back to the prehistoric
days of Adam when 1t played so

Is just as well that they should re-

be satisfactory to the majority, be-
cause the majority produced them.

one class of our citizens and a great
defeat to the other. Ais well that

ond 110, in the Third 112 and 16l
in the Fourth. It's true he had
no opposition, but the people
could have scratched his name
from off their tickets if they had
desired to do so. The vote is a
fattering one for any man, and
we know Mr.. Cummings is thank
full, appreciates the compliment,
and will do his whole duty as col
lector and treasurer.
The auditors-elect will be John
j. Mckay and w. B. Woodruff.
Councilmen:
In the First ward Bell had 90
votes to 81 for Young. Bells ma
jority being 48.
In the Second ward +. j.
Loughney defeated E. Roome, his
majority being At. Loughney had
80 votes, Roome 33. Loughney
will 10 better next time.
Third ward: Work 155, Guyt"n
60; Works majority 95.
We judge from this majority
Harry must still be run1ing.
In the Fourth ward Lazear and
Kerr both worked hac'l, and the
contest was good-nature1 but
quite warm. The vote stands 81
for Kerr to II for Lazear, giving
Kerr 20 majority.
So we have new officers elected
again. They are all new men ex-
cept Bell. They are all business
men, have their families, their
property and all their interests
here, will no doubt give rs a good,
clean, progressive administration,
as well as an economical one. The
city is in good hands, and the
new officers should be supported
by the people. The very great ma
jority of the voters have chosen
these men, and that ends the fight
or ought to.
We believe the election has
done good. The saloons will not
again run as wide open as they
have been doing for some time.
There will be a healthy reaction
all along the line.
After all, we have a good town
here. No murders, no riots, arson
or any felonies can be charged up
to our city. No homes have been
robbed, people have enjoyed life,
liberty and the pursuits of happi-
ness, any one is safe to walk the
streets of the city any hour of the
day or night, and there is 70 city
in the United States with such a
variety of people in it as we have
here can boast of better order
or whose people are better pro-
tected.
Sistersville is a good city, she
is growing, prosperous and we
should enlarge her borders this
year, pave and improve generally
her suburbs.
The Review will support the
new officers so far as we can and
so long as they do right as best
they can. Now, let's all get to
work to improve our city and
make it better in every way.

That "quiet vote" is a liar.
The "quiet voter" was for
Kirkland.
Where was Krug and Noll when
the lamp went out?
A taxpayer said last night he
was opposed to Hill because he
favored reducing the salaries of
all city officers.
When reformers stick as close
together and work as HARD at the
polls as the saloon men dD they
may hope to win.
The intelligent negro voters re-
ceived $25 and a keg of beer for
their votes this year, so we
heard. This is decided raise In
the price over last year.
Kirkland went over the Hill
dead easy. This is not an origi-
nal joke. It's second-handed. The
man who got it off was killed dead
at $50 last night. Interment in
Martinsville Monday week.
Hill made a good, hard fight,
but his friends evidently went
back on him. He has done moth
ing to cause any regrets and his
is clear and easy.

DEATH CALLS sTEPHANIE.
Baroness di GaIIoti Succumbs to Ill
ness i'm Leadville, Colorado.

LEADvILLE, Colo, April 2S.-Ste-
phanie, Baroness di Gallotti di
Napoli, daughter of Signor Chill
lardi Of Milan. Italy. and a second
cousin of the late Queen Victoria of
England, is dead in this city.
The Baroness was born in Milan in
1S4O When IA years of age she was
married to Baron di Gallotti, with
whom she lived happily for many
years. In 1855 the Baron was exiled
for political reasons from Italy, and a
few years later the couple came to
America. The Baroness was possessed
of a beautiful voice, and in the straits
to which they had been reduced she
found il necessary to use her talents
TO raise money. She toured the country
with the leading Italian grand opera
companies in the early sixties. The
Baron died in Denver in 1874. He had
received a letter from the King of
Italy canceling the order exiling him
from his country. The shock produced
by the joyful tidings caused his death.
In 1879 the Baroness married Charles
II. Tanner, who was then an attorney
in Denver. and in 1850 the couple came
here. where they have resided ever
since. AS age overlook them they
found il more difficult to acquire funds
for living expenses, and frequently suf-
fered from want.
