Result of the Municipal Election in Greenville.

Special to the Commercial Herald.

GREENVILLE, Dec. 15. The municipal election was held here yesterday, resulting in the election of the Citizens' ticket, headed by Jacob Alexander as mayor, the present incumbent, and this is his third term. John P. Finley, Joseph W. Jayne, Herman Wilezinski, Ed Kennedy, John F. Harris and B. F. Shirly were elected councilmen. The opposition ticket met with a crushing defeat, although both tickets were selected out of the best material. There was considerable interest taken by the citizens, and almost a full vote was polled. This selection seems to satisfy everybody and we can safely say that they will prove to be an ornament to the municipality, judging from the past impartial and liberal actions shown by them in municipal matters.
