the history of the city, DIR. Ed
ward R. Taylor and the entire
Good Government ticket was to-
day elected by a plurality that
will exceed 10000, and may reach
twice that number.
On the face of present avail
able returns, Taylor and Langdon
will have clear majority over all
other candidates. Taylor's vote
from scattering precincts in all
parts of the city shows that he has
some hundreds Of votes more than
both Mccarthy and Ryan.
4 With 1000 votes counted, from
thirty-four precincts, at 1890 to-
night, Taylor had 2416, Nc
Carthy 920 and Ryan sos. Lang
don seems likely to run slightly
ahead of Taylor, but in the main
fthe two leaders will run close
together.
Semi-official statement issued
from the office of the registrar:
Con face of returns already in
Taylor and entire ticket is elected
| beyond shadow of doubt"
/ A statement issued from head
| quarters of Taylor said:
I. Taylor and Langdon are
elected by more than 10000

4 Good Government ticket assures

board Of supervisors and all minor
offices. There is not a break in
the song oftriumph, and civic de-
cency is once more assured to the
city OF San Francisco by a direct
vote Of her people.
Shortly before midnight, Nc
Carthy gave up the fight and con-
ceded the election of Taylor and
|Langdon. About 5000 votes had
|been counted at o'clock this
morning and Taylor and the en-
!: tire ticket had lead which could
mot be overcome.
