VICTORY FOR DICK
AND DEMOCRACY
Push and Progress Will Win-Over
1900 Votes Cast Up TO 3
O'Clock This After.
noon.

The fight is one between the demo
Gratis Of this city and the independent
republicans as to who shall control
the destinies Of the Summit City for
the next two years. The slogan uf the
democrats is push and Progress
the battle cry Ut the Independent r,
publicans and soreheads Is backward
turn backward and stop EiUwth'
The prospects are that the vo 10
will be heavy and when the ballots
are counted It will be found that tn,
flag Of democracy will wave trium
phant In Ardmore as it has done in
the past. Both sides are working hard
and bending every effort The demo
Gratis are all getting into line except
a few sorehcads and disgruntled poll
ticians, who are taking this method
Of joining tine republican ranks.
The repub ican independents are
voting his brother Of the conred race
to stand still. while the democrats
are not only holding their own but are
gaining at every tafn.
It is anticipated that the vote today
will be the largest cast at any cleo
tion ever held In this city
The wise ones are picking Il. W.
Dick as the winner by n good major
ity and that the council will all he
democrats. The election for treasure"
will be close with Pate having little
the best of the bargain at this time.
At 3 o'clock the total vote cast was
1868. with the managers at the polls
couccding the election of II. W. Dick
as mayor by a good safe majority. The
vote as cast was divided among the
wards as follows Ward /, 1896; Ward
.. 3O3: Ward 3. 20, ward 4. 359
From the prospects -r' seems 10
be no doubt but that the Summit City
will remain in safe hands, and the
people are speaking in no uncertain
terms that Push and Progress is what
they want.
The sorehcad and the rubber back
boned crowd of erstwhile Democrats
will be made to go way back and sit
down. or join the ranks of the Repub-
llcans.
In all probability The vote will exceed
the total number cast in the primary
by over 500.
The slush fund failed to do its work
and everybody wants progress, pros
perity and push. People want TO see
the paving go on in every section of
the city.

Absurdities of the Law.

New York Tribune: Another
inglorious instance OF the stupidities
of American law is beautifully set
forth by Dean Wigmore of the No1th-
west University Law school in last
months number of the Illinois Law
Review. The case in point is that
of the indictments returned by the
coroner's jury against presons alleged
to he responsible for the fearful
Iroquois theatre tire OF 1903 in
Chicago. The defendants escaped all
punishment, thanks to the judges
belief that the city ordinance, by
applying only to a part of Chicago,
namely, the downtown district, is
invalid. Within the law,
says Dean Wigmore, the judges
decision is ';sound," but the law
which permits scholastic word Jug
Cling is "a system of Anticipated
pedantry." Every sane man, hear
ing that nobody is to blame for the
great catastrophe, will assent to the
deans arraignment.
