The election proved to be a vic
tory for the administration ticket,
whichanded five of their seven men,
with Drexel and Jardine ot the "Big
Six," breaking In. Drexel showed
surprising strength by gaining fourth
place, leading the mayor, whose vote
gives him fifth place.

Zlmman led Ryder and Simon.
The election upset forecasts and yielded
surprises for some of the sstute poli
ticians. The mayor's vote was about GOO
less than ho received three years ago,
while Hummel received about 1,000 more.
It waa generally felt, even la the city
ball, that Hummel would run strong, but
that the mayor should have dropped back
tq fifth place, with one of the anils run
ning ahead of him, was one of the Jolts
admitted by the administration : leaders
last evening.
During the last few days many con
tended that there would be little question
regarding tho re-election of Dahlmao,
Hummel, Hug-el and "Wlthnell, with quite
fight against Butler and McGovern.
McGovern stated several days ago the
paving contractors were waging a bitter
fight against him on account of his strict
methods regarding city contracts. He,
however, has not given up, hoping that
the official canvass, of even a recount,
may land him In seventh place. ,
On Monday, he said: "If I should fall
of re-election, I will go out with the
satisfaction that I did my best aa city
commissioner, and I have a clear con
sciousness of duty well done."
Ryder occupied the unique situation of
being the "political -orphan," and many
beta were placed on his election, based
largely upon the sympathetic vote. Many
held that' the "Square Seven" made a
bad blunder In dropping Ryder; that he
had been made a political goat, and
Ryder himself appeared confident up to
the time the returns began to come In.
Dahlman received the high vote In the
Third, First and Tenth wards, but fell
behind In the Second wacd, which had
been . regarded as a particularly strong
Dahlman ward. In the Seventh the
mayor's own ward he was tenth, with
Drexel and Hummel first and second by
substantial figures over the mayor.'
Iti the Twelfth ward Hummel led with
a vote of about 1,800, while the mayor
received only 1,000, tenth In the order, of
votes received. Of the seven high men
In the Twelfth ward five were antls.
"I am more than pleased at the show
ing made. I can only attribute this to
the work I have done In the last three
years In the parks and on the boulevards.
I believe It. was the showing made by
my department," was a statement made
by Commissioner. Hummel.

MAYOR JIM SCORES
HARLEYJJOORHEAD
Says that Tweed and Tammany in
Their Palmiest Days Were
Never So High-Handed.
FLYIfN SAYS "LET ALL BOOST"
Mayor Dahlman Is very indignant
over the manner In which he alleges
Election Commissioner Moorhead
used his office to disfranchise voters
In the election. The mayor says he
is having about-100 affidavits pre
pared by votera barred from the polls
on -flimsy technicalities and In th.i
guise of the law. To quote the
mayor In his own words:
"Tweed and Tammany in their
palmiest days were never as high
handed as the election commissioner
we now have. The administration
candidates lost nearly 1,000 votes on
account of Moorhead's arbitral y
methods. I have positive evidence
of specific cases. I want to say thet
the election commissioner and his
crowd caused a loss or 1,000 votes
for the Square Seven."
To Call an Gavemsr.
Boms of the mayors referenoes to the
election commissioner were even mors
pointed. He Insists he will demand that
Governor Morehead Investigate the high
handed methods used by the election com
missioner and take action on them.
In an Impromptu talk to a crowd on
Farnam street In the evening the mayor
said: "I wouldn't waste bird shot on
Abraham Button, who Is a dead duck.
What has he done to build up this city
and what . have his associates In tiila
campaign done toward boosting Omaha?
I am here to say that the men behind
The Bee and the World-Herald have al
ways stood for the best Interests of the
city, while the Dally News has done
nothing but knock and tear down what
others have built.'
The mayor referred to the newspaper
organ of the Big Six as a "low-down
lying sheet, not even owned in Omaha."
He leferred to the Impending struggle In
this state on the prohibition question.

but in view of there being four democrats
In the new 'council It Is generally be
lieved that the present mayor will enter
upon his fourth term In that office.
The successful candidatea of the Square
Seven received many congratulations In
the dty hall yesterday. Commissioner Mc
Govern, whose defeat seems quite prob
able, states that he knows the paving
contractors exerted much effort sgalnst
him because ot his refusal, to let them
use him snd his office for their personal
ends. .
Chairman Flynn of the administration
campaign committee was around bright
and early. I'One of the unfortunate fea
tures of the cumpalgn waa the bitter
manner In which the antl speakers at
tacked the city In general, giving a
false Impression to strangers," said he.
"We urged our speakers sgalnst this sort!
of campaign speaking. As for myself. 1 j
am rradv f forget and perhaps forgive
and my hnve is that we will all get to-
aether for a Greater Omaha. We wish
to thank all who worked In behalf of the
Square Seven."
Mr. Flynn explained that shortly after
the noon hour yesterday the word waa
passed around among the administration
people to work for Drexel In plant of
Slmoa, who appeared hopelessly Inst. He
alsit declared that at one atage of the
campaign negotiations were pending for
taking Diexel on the Square Seven,
tltket. but the opinion prevailed that
Zlmman should be defeated and that
the man to accomplish that would be
Simon. There are rumors that Simon
will be "taken care of when the new
council shall ruvs been organised.
