election was hard fought one. both
sides being confident of victory up
until this afternoon, and il followed
An aggressive campaign OF many
months on the part of each faction.
The majority was IS. out of a total OF
1853.
The result will be contested. ac-
cording 10 a statement made at the
Anti-Saloon League headquarters i.
when defeat seemed certain.
The "drys" saw defeat when they
failed to carry the first precinct of
the First ward by about half of the
expected majority.
The "wets" enterad the battle with
feelings of doubt but when the vote
became known later in the day. they
became hopeful and this evening were
certain OF victory.

part of both sides while the vote from
the second. precinct OF the Second

turned fully an hour behind the other
