The firsS visit was to Ward 1, which gave the city the greatest surprise in this ele,A- ton, since it. has been considered a democratic ward but it was in favor of Gates. In the line of march were all of the newly elected officials After parading about the streets they went to the republican Headquarters on Church street and Mayer Gates was called upon for a speech. He said: ''Gentlemen, in behalf of the board of aldermen and myself, thank you, and we cordially appreciate what you have done. T. repeat my statement that will give the city an economical, .effi- cient and progressive administration We shall expect 9 dollars worth for every dollar expended. Gentlemen, thank you.'
 Alderman Willard Bowen then made a few remarks and then the victorious party adjourned to the open air for more parading-
