SOCIALISTS DEFEATED

The most important election held
in the country last Tuesday was
the city election at Milwaukee
which has been governed the past
two years by socialists.
All the old parties united to beat
the socialists and were backed by
the breweries, great businesses and
barrels of money; $4,000 votes were
polled-by far the largest ever cast
in that city.
The following is an Associated
Press dispatch:
Swept from office by the flood
of nonpartisan votes, the Milwaukee
S o C ist city administration,
watched for the past two years by
the entire nation, is eliminated to-
day, complete returns from yester
days voting showing DR., g. A.
Bading,: fusion mayoralty candidate
elected over Mayor Emil Seidel by
majority of II, ,S02 votes.
Control of the municipal coun-
Gil was also taken from the social
lists. The new body will consist
of twenty-six partisan alder
men and eleven socialists, four of
the latter being held over. JOS
eph Carney, nonpartisan candidate
for city treasurer, and Louis M.
Koteckil, comptroller, were each
elected by majorities of over $4,000
votes"

The candidates on both tickets
were representative men, and the
friends of each fought Loyalty for
the ticket of their choice. Con-
siderable rancor was injected into
the contest by treachery, and by
the ever ready disposition of one
of the big Republican bosses to
initiate his own political account.
With what measure of success this
master of the situation timed
the public pulse is a matter of
common rowledge; the Republi-
can machine is worthless when
oiled with glue.
That the hard work of the old
board is appreciated by the citi-
zens of Monte Vista goes without
saying, and that the new one has
the hearty backing of the people
in their avowed pledges to keep
the town clean and enforce the
laws, we believe to be the general
sentiment.
