The voters of the city Tuesday in one of the largest votes cast at a city election, returned George Lush insky as the mayor of the city by a majority of 22 over Arnold J. Lillie, !his opponent at the two previous elec tions. City Clerk Albert Olson and City Treasurer M. D. Brown were winners by large margins in practically all of the wards. The predictions caused by the rain fall starting at noon as to cutting the vote down failed to materialize, however, as from 5:30 to the close of the polls the voting places were crowded, especially in the third, sec ond, fourth and fifth, and it was necessary to have additional ballots printed to supply the demands of the voters. The total vote cast was 1,535. In the general sweep toward the (endorsement of the present officers the voters re-elected to the board of education Frank A. Cloidt and Mrs. Pearl Mann. In the t-ouncilmanic race the first ward furnished an interesting event where Councilman E. A. Webb was winner by 33 over Carl Ofe, young gas dealer in a campaign where the friends of Ofe rolled up a handsome vote for him. The second ward found former Councilman Warren Tulene, the dem ocratic nominee, trailing Herman Tiekotter, republican, by eight votes for the post. In the third ward Councilman Frank-Rebal massed the largest ma jority of any of the councilman, as he acquired 112 majority over E. C. Giles, his republican opponent. The voters of the fourth ward de cisively gave the nod of favor to Councilman John E. Schutz with a majority of 61 over former Mayor C. A. Johnson, democrat. The fifth ward furnished a spirited battle with a three'way race that re sulted in Edward Gabelman. repub lican, being the winner by 22 over Walter Brittain, present councilman, whose name was written in and with Ray Herring as third man in the battle. In the mayoralty race the former leads of Lushinsky in the third ward was out but on the other hand the mayor cut down the heretofore large margins that the fourth and fifth wards had given to Lillie. The vote on the various was as follows: Mayor George Lushinsky, r Arnold Lillie, d Clerk Albert Olson, i S7G Richard Black, d 5S4 Treasurer Clement Woster, r M. D.

However this evening after 8 o'clock once more can there be foam and froth in the drinking places of the city. Liquor stores that are not allowed to open until 8 a. m. by city ordi nance remained closed for the day while the beer taverns remained open for the sale of soft beverages and handling their lunch lines.
