GOOD FOR
QUIET ELECTION
Close of Campaign Gives Promise of

Feeling Prevails in Community.

was marked by meetings Oh DOtn the
democratic and independent clubs,
the former at the Blue Club hall on
18th street, and the latter at the
Dittmann theatre. Both halls were
filled to their capacity all during the
evening, but the Dittmann theatre,
because of its larger scale, accom-
modated a larger crowd. There were
overflow crowds at both places.
Differing from it's custom in form
err years, the Blue clab did not pa
rade the streets last night. The in
dependent, however, held a parade
through the business streets, having
cornered the music market in the
city by securing the services of two
local bands. For the Blue club meet
ing music was rendered by a band
from Matamoros.
Speeches in Spanish and English
were made at both places, but no
great amount of enthusiasm was
noticeable at either meeting. Both
were quiet and orderly and no undue
excitement was apparent. From in
dications yesterday and last night,
the election today in Brownsville
will be carried out without any dis
turbing occurring whatever.
Considerable campaigning was
done all days yesterday in the city
and country by both democrats and
Independents, the latter seeminly
intent upon concentrating all their
efforts in an attempt to elect their
candidates for the offices of sheriff
and tax collector, r. j. Tucker and
Macedonia Garcia.
Circulars and campaign literature
were distributed yesterday on the
streets of the city and over the
ty in a last attempt to secure votes.
The counting of the ballots to-
night doubtless will be slow work,
owing to the large ballot. The ticket
will contain the nominees of six par
ties, the democratic, the republican,
the progressive, the socialist, the
prohibition, and the socialistic labor.
There will also be a blank column on
the ballot in which those who desire
to name other than the regular
party nominees may write the names
of their candidates.
