According to the official count by the
city council of the recent city election
made Saturday evening several errors
were discovered which made little diff
ference 10 the majorities. In the count
for mayor the changes made enough diff.
ference to elect VIM. Vaughan by two
votes instead of Geo. Fritz, who was re-
ported elected by two majority. Other
majcrities were affected a little also but
not enough to make any changes. Thus
the city of Black Hawk has clean, hon
est and capable mayor whose views, 10
connection with the broad mindedness
of the present aldermen will give the
city good and popular administration.
