DEMOCRATS MOST ACTIVE They UUrr All Tlielr l'upari lUmly and A V 1 1 1 I'rrtent Tliftn m Cnrt nn Monriftj Morutitff Tho Cltlrtni l'urty JtnTrntei.t Wh'Ic all talk about the election contests has died the project, are by no means uufuuet. There are people iu both the Citizens and Democratic parties .who are just as eager now at they wero the day after election to ga into court and have certain returns upset, and they serin to have sufficient influence to keep tha machinery moving. Still there is a strong pwssib'Iity that noth lug will result from either movement. A well kuowu member of the Democratic party said the other day that, in his opinion, the bottom would drop out of tho whole thing bclore many days, even after going iuto court. Some of those who wcie heated a few days ago have cooled down and taken n dollar and cents view of tho matter, and from that staad point of view it is hard for a cool headed, conservative man to seo wiiat la to be gained, ilowover, theie is one aigument that Is fee ing made by the Dotuncrats which may nc ccid iu bringing together a predominating lamer that mil force tUo contest to maturity. The, argument is that a contest will change the resnlts in the Second, Tuird, Fourth and Fifth wards sufficiently to giro th Uotuo crats a, majority in the School llond that will stand beyond da.ger fur several elections. This is, Indeed, an enthusiastic hopo -far too enthusiastic to be realized, Hut there is uo use attempting to nrgua the matter with tho.'o who entertain it, for they have tnelr minus set upon it and will not bo con Tinted othcrniae. Jubt what the Citizans party is doing towards making a contest is not known, but it is believed little has been done this week, as most of the put ties havine tho matter iu charge have Ikcii otherwise engaged. For this reason it is possible that there will he uo developments fioui tho Citizens' movement on Monday, as was expected, iho nrerura tiou of data and papers for an election contest is very tedious work and rcquircB several days. This, in connection with the ground mat may have been lewt by tlio deity, will un doubtedly extend the time fur developments irum the uituins party another week or ten days. It was learned toduy that all tho nancrs for tho contest on the Democratic side nf the house have been prepared and hre in tho bauda or the committee of twenty live an poind: d last Sunday. It is said a meeting of ttie general committee will be held tomorrow and tho papers will then be turned over to the counsel employ. d for presentation to the court on Monday. A coatest is to bo m .do on every candidate on the Citizens, ticket whom the returns gave a, majority.
