HE CITY ELECTION


The result of the city election is a
surprise. and it is not surprise, to use
an Irish bull Both parties claimed
the victory at the outstart, but 1t is
a way both parties have. Both had
doubts, however, and there was an
unusual amount of "outting" tickets.
At 10 O'Clock last night most OF the
Democrats had given over the victory
to their opponents. The two Demo
cratic wards-First and Second, the
party's fortress, had rolled up such
slim majority that it was not thought
possible for the party to overcome it
in the great Repu blican stronghold
the Third ward, uptown, which is
known as the "Black Belt" This
wards normal majority is $50 Repub
lican Had that been rolled up last
night, or even the one hundredth of it,
IL would have been impossible for the
Democrats to have won. This, how
ever, was not the case, and but a slight
vote, comparatively, was polled, and
y
were thrown out. This rolled up the
required majority for the Democrats,
giving the Democratic Mayor a ma
jority of II and the Democratic Coun-
sellor a majority of votes.
The election was closely contested
throughout the city. Both parties cut
their own tickets. 1t is a we'll known
fact that the Republican party organ
ization was against the Republican
candidate for Mayor and many Repub-
licans did not vote for him. It is also
we'll known fact that a prominent
Democrat worked against his party.
In other words it was house divided
against itself, or rather two houses
the Democratic and Republican
Both nominated their tickets to suit
themselves and said to the party
"You must vote for them - The press
in Annapols-the only place on the
map--is never consulted when a ticket
is to be nominated. This is not done
anywhere else in the world.
The general opinion is that Mr..
Douw will make good mayor. He
is probably the youngest mayor An
napolis has ever had. He is closely
identified with the interests of the
town and is property owner and tax.
payer, which means great deal &c
over burdened taxpayers of this town.
The counsellor, Mr. Riley. is re.
elected. He has filed the position
oapably for two years and is a popular
young man. With two exceptions, be-
sides the mayor. the City Council is
practically the same. These are AL
dermen Frank A. Munroe, Republican,
one of the most popular young bust
ness men in town, who received a
large number of Democratic votes, and
Alderman Thomas J. Linthicum, Jr. ,
also a popular young business man.
The other members of the Council
have been previously weighed in the
balance of public and popular opinion.
and their acts endorsed by their fellow
citizens.

anything remarkable about the

he answered.:
No nothing particular about the
hill itself, but there is a queer story
connected with it. ."

Whether a person can withdraw his
or her name from petition asking the
court to allow person ito sell intoxi-
eating liquor, is the question which is
puzzling Judge Hassell dn the hearing
of the druggist permit case from Lar
imore. He has adjourned the case for
several days to decide the question,
after which the matter of allowing the
permit vii leone up, says the Grand
Forks Press. T.. 4, s
just before the hearing Of the petit
ton of Thomas Williams for a drug
gist permit to sell Intoxicating liquor
was brought up, almost twenty of the
signers of the petition asked that their
names be withdrawn. Today four
more asked to Withdraw. ~ @l
Should they be allowed to WITHDRAW
their names. it will leave Mr.. Williams
without the sufficient signers to secure
the permit asked for. Some Of the
citizens of Larimore are making a
strong fight against the selling of
ls"alor and the permit at the hearing
was being tough. hard.
