I^aKt Saturday night a ten
roi nd fight between two young
rr< nurtured on the street? of
Uis city. The fight was brought
on over an old sore which had
Lien brewing for about two
yr ars, over a girl.
It seems as though the boys
were not on the best of terms,
and one of »hem being pretty
well intoxicated, only aided in
making it mote easy to bring a-
bout the trouble. It wan a fight
to a finish and as a result one of
the men is in a very bad condi­
tion. He was the man under­
neath and was beaten up pretty
badly. As soon as the fight was
over the friends of the injured
man took charge of him and he
was taken to the boarding house
of Mrs. Montgomery, where he
was placed under medical care.
The influence of the liquor
made his condition the more
shaky, but at the present writ­
ing he is imp-.oving nicely.
The quarrel of last Saturday
night was the continuation of
one that started some two years
sgo over a lady friend of one of
the boys. Each of them was
ready to make the thing right in
the finish fight last Saturday,
which ended with the above sta­
ted results.
Such things should not be per­
mitted in the city and we surely
see the need of a city govern­
ment that will keep the above
mentioned disturbance* in check.
To our personal knowledge there
was no city official on the ground
to stop the fight As a conse­
quence one man is in a very ser­
ious condition. Nothing serious
may terminate from the fight
but it will disable one man for a
few days at least

Saturday evening. Governor
West issued a proclamation desig­
nating Nov. 27 as Thanksgiving
day, and asking that it be obser­

follows:
“It in an apt custom that has

The city election which was
held in this city last Monday,
Nov. 17th proved to be victorious
for the Citizen’s ticket. Although
the feeling prevailed that the pe­
titioner’s ticket would poll a
strong vote, the nominees on the
other ticket did not meet a great
deal of opposition.
The newly elected officers will
take their oath of office the first
meeting of the city council in
December. We now expect to
have a slight change in the city
government, when the newly e-
lecte d members take their seats
in the council chamber of the city
of Dayton.
One of the largest pollings took
place Monday that has been polled
in a city election of this city for
a number of years. The total
number of votes cast were 127,
if we have made no mistake.
The votes were cast as follows :-
