Frederick E Whitaker, defeated Paul Barnett. by about 1,600 votes
 There were three other tickets in the field: socialist. prohibition and sociaiist-labor, but the votes cast were light.
 The republicans had a big ceIebra- ton tonight, ending with a parade through the city.
 Seant Attention to Amendment. The voters paid scant attention tC the proposed constitutional amendment on the mileage question. Of approx imately 1s,000 persons voting. less thar sOO voted on the amendment, as fol lows: yes 322; no 467.
