Clouds Wept Over Van's Second Victory in City Election
Report of a late 19th century city election shows Van Buskirk winning mayor by a narrow margin amid Republican strength in many cities. The piece notes booze influence, election irregularities in one ward, and a court bell tolling for a justification meeting as clouds wept in sympathy. Charles Springer led Democratic efforts with broad support. Boss Hill and Shorty were present. Owens likely served as marshal for eleven years.
