a tower of strength for the victor and
he came down to the bridge with a
majority of 800 over his opponent and
this majority was swelled by lot Of
votes on the south side of the city.
Everywhere except in the one ward it
was Scholey. The new ninth ward had
been considered as Farr territory but
in this ward SchoEey turned the same
trick as in the others and he had a
big majority.

Scholey Men Parade Streets
with Band ard Cheer Lead
err Amidst Red Fire.
BURN DEFEATED MENIN EfF|GY

Paademonium lroke loose in Keno
sha Tuesday night when it was found
that the people had elected NJ. J..
Scholey mayor and the iriends Of the
same old Matt celebrated their vic
tory in the same old way that they had
done in other years. Opponents Of the
Scholey faction were roasted, toasted
and then hung up to telephone pole
only to be pulled down and burned N
efigy and for more than four hours the
victorious Scholey adherents paraded
the streets making merry and turning
night time into day time with a wealth
Of red fire and fireworks
There was no delay in the celebra
tion of the coming back Of Scholey.
Like two years ago the celebration had
been arranged before hand and the
fact that it was really pulled off Prov
ed great glee to the men behind t..
There were no carnations left in the
tubs in the cellar this year and there
was no band to turn over to opposing
politicians. 1t was d real celebration
right off the reel The wagons IF
George Wade were in readiness and
they had been gayly decorated with
flags and banners early in the evening
and just as soon as the result was
forecasted the triumphal march from
the north side began. AS the parade
moved along it gathered strength and
from the north side the parade went
to Elizabeth street where the same old
Matt was in waiting for the coming
Of his hosts. He was given a great
ovation as he joined in the parade and
with it started back to the north side
again. There were a dozen decorated
wagons in the parade and they were
filled with a shouting, cheering and
kissing mass of humanity.
It was evident that Re parade was
as much in celebration of the defeat
of Alderman Marlatt in the second
ward as it was in celebration of the
victory of schoey for mayo 1arlattt
had the place of honor. He vas
dragged in effigy behind dump wagon
and at the proper time the efigy was
strung to telephone pole along Mil
waukee avenue. The parade was
tireless one and it was impartial in its
visits. 1t went from one part of the
town to the other, hating only long
enough to permit the tired eelebrators
tod wet their outlets and get into con-
dition for more shouting and more
cheering. From half past eight clock
to midnight the wild revel in celebra-
tion of the enthroning of the new
I" king continued and ever then some
OF the men and boys in the parade
were not read to quit. Celebrating
proved so pleasing that the leaders
thought it best to arrange for further
celebration this evening aqd it is
probable that the slans will be out
again to show their glee.
It was z great night for Seholey and
his friends. The red earnation ruled
supreme aud the goose hung high.
There was 4 lot Of liquidation a. s
result Of the victory of sclolev and
