Citizens Came
Out Ahead
so FaR As MAYOR WAS CON-
SERNED BUT LOST IN coUN-
GIL FIGHT THIS YEAR

MORGAETOWN, April 6--Not
clean sweep, but a great victory OF
the eight officers elected, the Repub-
licans got six. The citizens pulled
through their candidate for mayor and
the councilman in the fourth ward
The mayor was the chief consideration
in the fight, and in winning him. the
citizens have some cause for rejoicing,
but the victory there was Offset by lie
fear from end to end OF their line OF
battle. In losing the mayor. the Re
publicans feel that they fell short of
their whole duty; but they haze
abundant cause for rejoicing. 1t was
rot q clear victory for either side. bus
by far the largest end OF it came to
the Republicans.
In another way. the Republicans
have won an immense advantage.
Their organization is stronger and in
better shape than 1t had been N
years. The party is in harness It
was refreshing sight 10 see the
workers on election day. They vert
throug. the fight with confidence and
courage. They put up a clean. sharp,
wen-general3ed battle. and the line
never wavercd.

but on national issues the present
council will stand four Democrats and
six Republicans. The citizens have
four holdovcrs. and they elected one

Republicans have five. Thus the coun-
ell is 4 tie. But Mayor Hatfield viii
