COMMENTING EDIToRIALLY on the result of
the municipal election in Baltimore on Tues
day the american said Baltimore took a
good step and great step forward yesterday.
The city, by the vote of its people, placed it.
self on record in favor ola large expenditure
for public Improvements, in favor of better
protection of the public health, betterments
of Annex property and further development of
its excellent park system. The voters who
gave their approval to the three loan ordi-
nances, and who by so doing made possible
this municipal advance. are to be commended
for their fine display of civic spirit and their
proven interest in the welfare and progress of
their city. OF those who voted against the
loan and sought to block the plan Of public
improvement the -4nerican has nothing to say
except to express the sincere hope that they
will see the error of their ways, cease to be
obstructionists and join the army Of those
who are determined to make Baltimore q
healthier. more attractive and greater city"

Hiram Watty, colored politician, has repre-

vote in the ward is very heavy it was thought
he could not be beaten. but Mr.. Dennis went
into the fight to win and pulled through on
the slender plurality of t,co votes. 1t is said
that hundreds of colored men who had grown
tired of Watty's bossism remained away from
the polls, thus contributing to his defeat.

Mr.. E. STANLEY GARY, chairman of the
general improvement committee of Baltimore
and one of the city's most prominent young
business men, was highly elated at the result
ofTuesday s election. In an interview he said:
81 am glad that am living in town with so
much red blood. The election shows that we
have progressive people in the majority. We
have been charged with being slow in the past,
but this election shows that the people have
realized that we must be up and doing to make
Baltimore an inviting place for manufacturing
establishments and commercial enterprises,
for without these no city can hold its own
with the rest of the country. The election
was lest for the people, by giving them an
opportunity to declare whether they wanted
the city to advance or stand still. We want
new streets, new schools, new fire-engine
houses and many other improvements, but,
had the loans been defeated, who would have
had the courage to advocate any of these things.
The vote shows that the people have conf
dence in the Mayor. Confidence is the foun-
dation of all modern civilization. We can't
have good government when every man sus-
poets every other man and carries gum"
