The Result of the Election.
The result of the municipal election, as
announced and made known at an early
hour on Tuesday evening, was a matter of
great surprise to the larger portion of the
citizens of the city. We think it was gen-
erally believed by nearly every one. with
the exception perhaps of some ot the most
sanguine supporters of Colonel Beckham,
that Mayor Day would be re-elected to the
office which lie now holds. But the result

For the next thirty days Evans & Martin
the canvass and the day had been that the
first and second wards would give him a
good clear majority over his competitor.
But in this they were disappointed. The
small majority for Mayor Day in the sec-
ond ward caused the first feeling of anxie-
ty for his success on the part of his friends*
The anxiety exhibited by our citizens on
the result of the polling in the first ward,
perhaps, has never been equalled in any
contest that has occurred in our city.
When it was definitely known that
Colonel Beckham had secured a sufficiently
large number of votes to make his election
a certainty, the supporters of Mayor Day
must admit their surprise at the result of
the election wa? only equalled by their dis-
appointment. To the supporters of Col-
onel Beckham, in the main, the result was
received with that feeling of wonderment
that sometimes falls to the lot of mankind.
Tlieir joy*, from being unexpected, was
only intensified on this account. But after
the shock ot the disappointment of one
party had passsed away, and the excess of
joy on the part of the other had been ex-
pended in jollification, the different parties
fraternized with a spint’of cordiality only
equalled by the Russian and Turkish for-
ces since the close of the struggle in which
they have been contestants.
But now the battle is over, the
smoke is cleared away, and all
our citizens are disposed to give to
the new incumbent of the office
of mayor that support the inhabitants of
all law-abiding communities ever extend
to their officials.
Col. Beckham will bring to the office of
which he is about to fill, the experience of
a residence in our midst ol sufficient length
to become thoroughly acquainted with the
manifold wants and necessities which this
city, occupying as it does such a promi-
nent position in this section of the state,
will demand under his administration. lie

he gave him a sound clubbing.
Tuesday night, about eight o’clock,
there was a difficulty near the corner of
Elm and Lamar streets, between a man
named S. Berger and another named Syl-
verstein, a horse jockey, in which the for-
mer received several heavy blows, in addi-
tion to a cut under his left eye. He was
subsequently arrested, when he gave bond
for his appearance.
Mr. Alex Cockrell, well-known in this
city, who arrived Monday from Denton
county, says that he recently saw and
talked to Sam Bass, the Union Pacific ex-
press robber, and whom it is thought had
a hand in the express robbery at Allen and
Hutchins. Bass stoutly denies that he
had anything to do with the recent robber-
ies, but openly admits that he committed
the Union express robbery, and boasts
that he had lots of the money yet left.
He says the authorities will have to get up
early in the morning to catch him.
Monday morning, in the district court,
Judge Hunt sentenced the following pris-
oners, convicted at this term of court, to
the penitentiary: George Martin, theft of
cattle, three years; William Jones, theft of
cattle, two years; Henry Thompson, theft
of a horse, three years; William Haynes,
colored, theft of money, three years; Pen-
son Jones, theft of a steer, two years. The
following were sentenced on the 16th ot
March: Henry Butts, theft of a horse,
five years; Robert Fox. theft of money,
two years; Robert Favvler. colored, per-
jury, five years; George Perry, colored,
burglary, five years; George Harman,
burglary, two years, making in all ten.
Sheriff Moon started on Wednesday with
them for Huntsville. They are all young
men, and some of them seem to realize the
disgrace attached to their sentences.
Sunday night the prisoners confined in
the iron cage at the jail attempted to effect
their escape by sawing through the iron
bars that compose the cage. During the
night the guard on watch thought lie
heard a noise as though some one was pri-
zing with some metal against the bars, but

The Weather.
All the promising indications of rain on
Tuesday night, passed off without giving
more than a few drops. On Wedhesdav
morning the air was clear and cold, with a
stiff wind directly from the north—a regu-
lar spring norther. During the day the
clouds at times thickened, but they were
too high and too thin to give us rain. The
wind from the.west and north, in fitful
gusts, drove the dust in clouds before it.

friend, •' The pedestrian was enveloped in

The crops ot all kinds are suffering very
much for rain. Seed that has been planted
for several weeks are lying in the ground
as sound as when covered up, but will not
sprout for want of moisture. We are in
the condition of the old farmer who as-
serted that ic would rain in a day or two.
He was asked what signs lie judged by.
He replied that he did not judge by signs,
but that he had always noticed that when
the farmers were obleeged to have rain and
could not wait any longer it always come.

The wants of a city like the
city of Fort Worth, with its
population constantly being increased by
immigration from all sections of the coun-
try, are very great, and the chief magistrate
of such a city should have given him the
most cordial support on the part of its
business men and citizens generally while
in the discharge of the duty of that office.
Many questions are constantly arising that
will require firmness and discretion in
their settlement, and the friends of Colonel
Beckham have firm faith that their favor-
ite will meet all these issues with adminis-
trative ability that will challenge ad-
miration from his most bitter opponents.
Such, we hope, may be the case and so
we believe it will be.
The Barton Murder Case.
In the district court in the case of the
State vs. Michael Tooney, alias “English

October 13tli. 1877, the jury was empan-

and three of them have been examined so

for the defense Messrs. Watts & Brown and

asleep. Yet his suspicions were somewhat
aroused, and when daylight came, on go-
ing to look at. the cage again, he was not
surprised to discover that four of the thick
iron bars had been sawed in two. making a
hole nearly large enough to admit the pas-
sage of a man’s body. They were thor-
oughly searched for the saw and file with
which the work must have been done; but
strange to relate, the most diligent seareii
has failed to find the instrument with
which tbe work was done.
Tuesday morning, about one o’clock, a
row occurred in the Tivoli saloon, in
which one Barney Cunningham stabbed a
man named Morris Lacy in the breast, in-
flicting a bad. though not a serious wound.
Cunningham was sitting in the rear of the
saloon in a drunken stupor, and on being
awoke by one of the men about the house,
became belligerent. Meeting Lacy, lie be-
gan to discuss the election, and Lacy not
agreeing with him. an argument ensued,
when he pulled his knife and stabbed Lacy
as above stated. Officer Alkire arrested
Cunningham, who gave bond for his ap-
pearance.
There is a water wrangle between th
city and the water company as to rates to
be paid for fire plugs. The mayor orders
supply to be cut off, but the chief of the
fire department, Connor, declines to obey
the order. The insurance men threaten to
raise rates, and the matter lias caused some
feeling of alarm. The water is to remain
on till the matter is settled. This matter
is one of serious importance, and it is to
be hoped that, whatever may be the result
of the controversy between the city and
water company, the business portion of
the city will not be subjected to the risks
of a conflagration for lack of water.
