RESULT OF THE VOTING Democrats Carry Four of Six Wards of Town. Buckley Re-elected Justice by Over One Hundred. School Board and Council Remain the Same. In a total vote of 948 polled yesterday, the principal borough office voted for was carried by the Democrats, who re elected Justice of the lVaeo Thomas A. buck ley by a majority of 109. This was accomplished in face of the fact that the Fifth ward polled 100 less than its customary vote and the Sixth ward vote fell otT over 50. Shelhamer, Republican candidate for justice, started out from the First ward with a majority of 2. This was increas ed to 47 by the Second ward's vole. The Third reduced his lead to 38 and the Fourth took off 31 more, leaving him but 7 ahead. The Fifth gave buckley a majority of 52 and the Sixth added 04 to his lead, which gave him a net majority of 109. The Republicans elected Jonah Evans borough auditor, to succeed J. A. Alden, by a majority of 23. Lelb, for poor director, carried the borough bv 109, and Dunn, for poor auditor, by 2.8. In the First ward a Republican councilman and sch ml director were chosen to succeed outgoing Republicans. In the Second a Republican council man was elected to the seat which a Republican will vacate. In the Third the Democrats won the principal office, judge of election. In the Fourth the Democrats won the judge of election and the candidates for constable polled a tie vote. In the Fifth a Democratic council man is returned to succeed a Democrat, and all the other ward officers elected are Democrats. In the Sixtli a Democratic school director was elected to succeed Director McCole, and all the other successful candidates are Democrats. The present political complexion of the council is eight Democrats to four Republicans, and that of the school board is the same. When the candi dates-elect take their seats there will be no change in the number on each side. In the First ward an unusually large vote, the highest for some years, was polled. In the Second and Third the normal vote was out, while the Fourth. Fifth and Sixth fell off considerably. In the Seco id, Third, Fourth and Sixth there was little interest manifest ed by the voters in general, and it re quired extra efforts to bring many of the citizens to the polls. In the First the contest began early in the morning and continued without intermission until the last vote was cast. The usual bitterness which exists in close districts was shown between the opposing factions there and no oppor tunity was lost by either side to secure a vote for their ticket. In the Fifth a battle royal was fought, 1 but notwithstanding the fact that, the Republicans were re inforced by several Democratic bolters the ward was kept in line for the party. Foster Towiship The Democrats made a gallant fight in tliis Republican stronghold, but the odds against them were too much and their ticket was defeated. Owing to the failure of several districts to send in complete returns, the vote of the town ship cannot be given in full today, ex cept for the offices of school directors and supervisors. The contest was warmly waged all day long and the defeated candidates feel that they made a good showing when the large Republican vote of the township is considered. Hizle Township. The Democrats swept liuzle township by majorities varying from 300 to 400. Every candidate on the ticket was carried through, despite the fact that the influence of coal corporations and their officials were solidly arrayed against the Democratic nominees. Not in many years past have the Democrats of Ilazlo been so well united and the result is shown in the victory which was won yesterday. The majority given Patrick Illggins. of Drifton, the caudiddle for supervisor, is 401, which Is gratifying to his many Freeland friends. In Scranton the Democrats elected their candidate for controller, P. YV. Costellu, over Evan Morris, Republican.
