IIUDKN I.IHKItAI. The Times had hoped that the Liberal Lib-eral party -of Ogdeu would score a sweeping victory at the election yesterday, yester-day, although it apprehended at the same time the danger that threatened the party through the defection of a certain discontented faction. The result is therefore not a surprise though somewhat some-what of a disappointment to us, However How-ever nothing short of the success a the entire ticket would hare satisfied satis-fied us. At tho same time it has been demonstrated at the polls anew that Ogilen is a city safely liberal today and foiever. This was practically conceded when the people's party refused making any nominations whatever, acting merely as a reinforcement to the kickers kick-ers who succeeded in capturing, as it now appears, four of the ten council-men, council-men, the mayor and two justices of the peace. The liberals eleetod six coun-ciltnen, coun-ciltnen, tho recorder, treasurer, collector, marshal and three justices, jus-tices, thirteen against seven, nearly near-ly two to one. Even more suggestive sug-gestive are the majorities by which the two parties won, the Liberals ranging rang-ing from 2 to 403, the fusionist from 15 to 105. If against an alliance so powerful, and under circumstances so discouraging, the liberal party lu Ogden could issue victor even to the extent it did, what will it do when it Is once more reunited?
