NEWS FROM COUNCIL BLUFFS ,
Returns frjra Yesterday's ' Election Are Ex
tremely Hard to Gather ,
DEMOCRATIC BOODLE FREELY USED ,
Votrri Ilrilird by Wnril Heelers AVho
Sliaiunl'ully Worked tlie Floaters
What the Muiiccr Count
Gives.
Election day dawned with a sky overcast
by dull , leaden clouds that , seemed to fore
shadow the condition that somebody's
aspirations were to assume before nightfall.
In spite of n mist that fell nearly all day n
full vote was polled In most of the wards ,
and the llvollos Intoroit was apparent
overvwhero in the outcome of the voting.
Vehicles of all descriptions perambulated
the streets bearing the usual placard exhort
ing voters to east their llttlo ballot for some
popular favorite. The Young Men's Chris
tian association drum corps was out In full
force all day In the Interests of the repub
lican ticket , whllo two brass bands , Dalboy's
of this clt fc. and the Musical Union of
of Otnaha , aroused the cuurago of the
democrats.
Un to the hour when the polls closed It
was Impossible for the most far sighted
politician to tell how things were running. A
Croat ilc.il -scr.itchlng was done , but as
most of it was done around the corner out of
sight of the "workoM , " it was hard to tell
which way the votes wore drifting. Another
feature which rendered ttio outcome uncer
tain was tno oxtraordlnarlaliy largo number
that cumo to the polls with their ballots
already made out and folded up and voted
them without sayinc a word to anyone.
Some of the scratching was done by prohi
bition republicans wno felt personally ag
grieved to think that Messrs. Shugart and
Collect ! would come out boldly and announce
themselves as standing on a little high
llccnso platform of tbelr own , while the
party that nominated them was In favor of
prohibition. Among the number were
L W. Tulloys and Kov. T. McK.
Stewart , both of whom voted for
the democratic candidates for the senate and
legislature rather than vote for republicans
who would not uphold the republican plat
form. These votes , however , wore more
than oflsot by representatives of the party
who had been wavering as to how they
should vote , but had boon decided by the
stand tnUci. by the republican candidates at
the lally Monday night.
In most of the wards the voting wont along
quietly , with few disturbances to mar the
solemnity of the occasion , barring a few
lively scraps in the Second ward and a num
ber ( if little set-tos between representatives
of the different parties , which were quickly
stopped by their cooler headed friends , In
other wards , there was but little ox-
citomcnt. There was an encounter in the
Second that came near ending in u free-for-
all light. F. A. S-ickott was behind the rope
that separated the voters from the crowd ,
acting as i-hallom/or for the republicans. Ho
was not distinguished by any badge , and Ed
Uates , a special democratic policeman , at
tempted to put him out. D. 1C. Shreovos ,
the republican special , .stood up for Sackott
and refused to let Bates lay a hand on him.
Chris liudlo , the democratic challenger ,
thereupon took a hand , and for a few min
utes there was blood on the moon. After
several lively blows had boon struck Sackott
quietly withdrew and the principals to ttio
combat were easily dissuaded from their in
tentions to have ouch other's ' gore.
In the Second money was spent by tno
democrats with a lavish hand. A largo slmro
of the wire pulling was given hi
to the hands of the ICildare-C'arroll-Alatnor
outfit , and the campaign fund was placed at
their disposal. The ganc was well organ
ized , and all its movements went like clock
work. The prospective voter was taken
back of tlid pollco station , or into the patrol
house , which was also ulaccd at the disposal
of the boys , Ho was then marched to the
polls whore ho deposited his vote. On com
ing away ho was mot by another of the gang ,
wtio shoved into his hand his share of the
proceeds of the dav's work. A prominent
democratic politician , when asked what all
this meant , stated that these men wcro not
paid for voting the dcmoeratc ticket.
"Wo simply pay them for work at the
poll ? . Just as wo do'all these men that cannot
nlTard to lo.ivo their business to work for the
party's ' good. Thov are perfectly free to vote
the democratic ticket or not > just as they
please. "
"How lone Is the day they are expected to
work ! " was the question.
"Oh , well , the day vanes ; some of them
work eight hours and some of them don't
work so long as that , " and ho smiled a solf-
satisflod smile.
.ludginir from appearances , however , most
of the voters who wcro hired to worlc all day
at the polls fulled to put in the required
olcht hours. A well known republican fol
lowed ono of the "workers" away as ho
made for the patrol house in company with
one of the ward workers. The presence of
the third party scorned to make It very un
comfortable for tl > o other two , and
the latter finally suspended opera
tions and agreed to meet the next
day. Cll ! Haird , who was working at
the polls nil day in the Interest of the n > pu b-
llcans , followed another party of the same
kind and overtook them Just as a $3 bill was
passing from the hands of ono to the other )
lie caught their hands and for a moment
there was n tussel to sco which should got
the money , but the one for whom It was
originally intended finally got hold of it , and
liiilrd was not in it. Ho got the names of
both the parties , howovor. and it Is probable
that they will bo arrested today on thochargo
of illegal voting. Only ono arrest was made
all day long for Illegal voting , The unlucky
man in this Instance gave his name ns D.
Thompson , and said ho worked for Henry
Heocrolt. His otTonoo was attempting to
vote when ho was not qualillod.
Up to the hour of going to press the
returns were incomplete from most of the
wards , but cnouch had reported so as to
furnish n pretty good Idea of the way things
were running. In the Fourth ward , second
precinct , there was a majority of fi In favor
of Holes , and f > ! > in favor of Oronowog.
Scanlan ran ahead of his ticket for sheriff ,
but was distanced by llami to the tunoof ; ) . " > .
In the Sixth ward Holes had a majority of
II , GronowegO , and Scanlan I'- .
In the Third Holes was ii.'l abend , and the
only Information that could bo obtained from
thejudio3 beyond that fact was that Scan
lan hud run a long ways ahead of his ticket.
In the First the race was very close , but
Holes got n majority ofI ! ) . Scanlan IH run
ning nwny ahead of ht.s ticket In this ward.
In the Fourth precinct ho got n majority

In the Fifth ward Holes has a majority of

Kdgnr Wilson JCyo , otherwise Hill
Nye , Is'writing a series of autobiograph
ies for the Century. > Yom the ilrst pa
per , in the .November number , wo quote
as follows : "I forgot to say that the of-
llco was not a salaried ono , but solely de
pendent unon fees , the county furnish
ing only ttio copy of the Revised Stat
utes anil a woolsack , slightly and prematurely -
maturely bald. So while I was called
Judge Nye , and frequently mentioned in
the papers with great ' consideration , I
was out of coal about litilf the time , and
once could not mall my letters for three
weeks because I did not have the neces
sary postage. Friends in the eastern
states may possibly recall the time when
my correspondence , from some unknown
cause , Boomed to Hag. That was the
time. Of course I could have borrowed
tlio money , but I had , and still have , a
foolish horror of borrowing money. I
did not mind running an account , but I
hated to borrow.
"Tho llrst business that I had was a
marriage ceremony. 1 mot the groom
on the stieot. lie asked if I could marry
people. I said that I could to a limited
extent. lie said that ho wanted to get
married. I asked him to secure the
victim and I would get the other in
gredients. Ho then wished to know
where my olllco was. It occurred to tno
at that moment that there was no fire In
the steve ; also , no conl ; also , that the
west half of the steve had fallen in dur-
ine tlio night. So I said that I would
marry them at their homo. lie main
tained that his homo was over eighty
miles away and that it would consume
too much time to go thoro.
' "Where are you stopping atV I in
quired using the PiUo county style of
syntax to show that I was one of the
'
p'eople.
" ' met hero ' . She
'Wo , 'Squire. come
in on the Last Olianco stage and I'm
camped up in Gov'ment canon , not fur
from Soldier Crick.Vo can go out
there , I reckon. '
"I did not mind the ride , so I locked
my olllce , becurcd a boou of forms , and
meeting the young people at the livery
stable wont out with them and murried
them in u rambling , desultory sort of
way.
' 'Tho bride was a peri from Owl
Creek , wearing moccusliibof the pliocene
age. The rich Custilian blood of the
cavo-uwellers mantled in her cheek
along with the navy-bluo blood of Con
necticut on her father's side. Her
hair was like tlio wing of ti
raven , nnd she were a tiara
of clam shells about her beetling brow
Her bracelet was a costly hiring of front
teeth , selected from the early settlers at
the foot of Independence Mountain.
"With the shrewdness of a Yankee and
thn hauteur of a savairo she combined
tlio grotesque grammar of Pike county
and the charming naivoto of the cow-
puncher. She was called Beautiful
Snow. But I think it was mostly in a.
spirit of bantor. She was no longer
young. I asked her , with an air of bad
inage , if she remembered Pixarro , but
pho replied that she was away from homo
when no came through. The cave
dwellers were a serious people. Their
"
plumbing was very serious" indeed ; so
also were their jokes. Her features wcro
rather classic , however , and I was
about to say clean-cut , but on more inn-
turo thought I will not say that. Her
nose was bright and piercing. It resem
bled the breastbone of a sand-hill crane.
"Tho groom was a man of great cour
age and hold human lifo at a very low
llguro. That is why ho married Beau
tiful Snow without flinching ; also why I
have refrained from mentioning his
name ; also why I kissed the bride. I
did not yearn to kiss her. There were
others who had claims on mo , but I did
not-wish to give needless pain to the
groom , and so I did it. Ho had no
money , but said ho had a saddle which
if I could use I was welcome to. I did
not have anything to put the saddle on
nt homo , but rather than return empty-
handed I took it. "
