( Tried to Vote Colonized Graders K\- oR \Vomun at tlio 1'ollu Scenes nnd InuidcntH ut the Ilootli.s. Yesterday the voters of Omaha bad their first experience with the Australian ballot nnd the Australian election law , this being the lltsteloclion held since the now law wont Into effort. There Is u great difference ) ot opinion as to Vhother or not the now plan is a success. Bomo of the voters duel nro that. . It Is Just the thlnp , while others pronouoco It an intoler able nuisance. The day opened cool nnd chilly and not once did the sun show Its fnco through the heavy clouds that overspread the sky from early morning. Tills In no wlso damp ened the ardor of the politicians and ward workers. They wcro on hand early , eager for I the fray , hut It was not long until the roili/ntlon that their occupation was fro no nnd that political log pulling was a thing that had heon relegated to the roar. Oelny In Opcninfi tlio 1'ollq The polls in the eighty-eight districts filiouhl have opened promptly nt 8 o'clock , but there was an inexcusable delay upon the nart of some ono connected with the manipulation of the election machinery. The special policemen appointed by Major Hushing and Acting Mayor Lowry had been detailed and instructed to be at the oftlcos of the city nnd county clerk nt an early hour to take to the respective precincts the books , ballots nnd boxes , but not till offer 7 o'clock did a guardian of Hie peace appear at either place. This was the cause for n serious dolny , and In ninny instances the outllts wcro not turned over to the judges and clerks until after 9 o'clock. Slow Work nt First. After the machinery was once sot In mo tion thr voting continued without inter ruption , but the work for a time was slow and labored. The judges in nearly every precinct kept the voters waiting while they signed up the tickets and a great deal of tlmu was lost in hunting through the registration lists for tlio names of the voters after they had announced themselves. The voters were slow as well as the judges and clerks and ns a rule Jt took the average voter from ton to flftoon minutes to go through the three tickets. Kojl Duplicate Tickets. In most of the wards the voters heeded Tin : BUB'S warning , that fraud might DO at tempted upon the part of some of tlio parlies connected with ttio canvassing hoards. They took sample ballots with them into the stalls , mid thon'mado exact copies of the ballots as voted. Shortly after the opening of the polls the democrats grow bold mid resorted to the most dlsreoutablo trlckito steal the election. They rcalbod that It was a losing fight and were willing to resort to almost anything to bring their candidates to the front. They were loud In denouncing the ropub- liciin ? nnd openly asserted that In many Instances - ' / stances the foreign voters had trndea'Ost- hoff for other candidates. Osthoft heard the rumor Just before noon nnd put in a couple of liours tracing the loport. Later on ho hoard enough to cause him to sweat Dloocl , uftor which ho spent the greater portion of the day closeted with his strikers. Admitted OstliofT'ti Dolont. In the Seventh ward thi romocrnts them selves circulated the repot ! , fiat Osthoft was beaten , and ns soon as the word was con- vovod to the other wards , they massed their strength in an effort to defeat J. W. Ellor for county Judge. They gave their reasons nnd said they would turn the heavens nml the earth to elect P. J. King. Jf they could do that they would seat him und contest tno balance of the ticket. They would bring the contest proceedings before King and there win what they had lost on the day of election , "Clowcil , Kloution l > ny. " Around the cltv oftlcos presided ever bv democrats , everything was as quiet as th'o grave and this card being In inoit of the windows dews : "Closed , Election Day.

It was an uphill fight , and many of them deserted tno old ship long before the dinner horn sounded.

At noon they had a mutual admiration meeting nud voted the democracy a dead duck In the Bovonth ward.

Trouble at Various Polls. In the Fifth district of.tho Seventh ward the special policeman unpointed by Turn Lowry uosortod his post hhortly after the polls opened mul loft everv-thlng in the hands of the democratic mob. The regular ofllcor on the bent refused to restore order , nnd Chief Sonvoy was compelled to detail two officers from the regular force to bring nbcut onicr. The First precinct of the First ward was Wholly In tlio bauds of the democrats. They captured tha polls and refused to allow tbo republican challenger admission. A visit by n member of the repub lican central committee and u throat that the whole outtlt would bo arrested brought the gentlemen to time. Out in the Eighth district of tno Fifth ward , when the judges assembled , it was discovered that ouo of theJudRos was n nonresident of thu dU- trlot. The vacantly was lilled by appointing ono of the bystanders. In the Fifth district of the Fifth ward a democrat , one McNamara , was peddling democratic tickets nt the door of the booth. The voters asked that he bo removed. The police paid no attention to the demands and all day long the follow was allowed to annoy the voters. In the Fourth district of the Eicht ward , the republican challenger was denied admit tance , and was forced to remain outside the door. door.Never Never before in the history of Omaha did the Union Pacific shops close' down on elec tion day , but yesterday the tires are out unit lloiico reigns supremo. The men ware given a nny oft nnd Instructed to bo sure nnd voto. Mont of the business men voted early , after which they urged upon their clerks the necessity of doing likewise , Pcitdlnii Tlukots nt the Polls. During the early hours of the day demo cratic ticket peddlers wore operating ut thu very doors of the polling place in the Tenth district of thu Fifth ward , but were lluully driven back. In the Sixth precinct of tbo First ward the republican challenger was thrown out bodilv , but Chairman Smith of the city central com- mlttce was notified nnd ho threatened the Judges with nrro.it unless they ceased their opposition to the uroscncn ot the chillcngor. That had the desired effect. It was reported nt Headquarters that n man named Tlcny who was acting ns n Judge In the Fourth district of the Eighth ward was notn resident ot the district. In the Third precinct of the Ninth ward ono of the Judges started In by unfolding und examining every ballot voted , but was finally persuaded that ho was overstepping hU pre rogative. in the Second district of the Third ward n Judge , Timothy Dolnn , was seen talking and Influencing Kd Klco , n voter , and charges wcro made and he was challenged but both swore In their votes. Dolnn was afterward neon repeating the operation , nnd the case was reported to the cltv central committee. In the Eighth district of the Third ward the first ballot was not cost until after 10 o'clock. The boxes belonging to the ICIgtith district of the Second ward were delivered tnoro by mistake , and the wrangle that ensued ever changing them lasted half the forenoon , and until several prominent citizens went uowu and straightened out matters. The first woman who cast n ballot voted In the Second district of the Seventh ward. Owing to the misunderstanding of the elec tion law which allows a voter ton minutes In which to prepare his ballot , nn uttompt was made in some of the wards to limit the tltr.o to llvo minutes , but this was soon made known to headquarters , nnd challenger' } were Instructed to see that no ono was disfran chised In any such manner. At llomltmrtcrs. | The political headquarters do not draw the crowds tbnt they did yesterday. At the democratic rooms a few of the true and tried ones stood around , conversing principally upon the condition of the weather. When asked about the political outlooic they reply that "It loons pretty fair , " Mid "wo do not admit tnnt wo arc defeated. " At republican headquarters everything is hurry and hustle , few men having tune to talk. Men and carriages are being sent to men nnd places , while the opinion prevails that the republicans are sure winners. D. II. Mercer of the county and Dick Smltu of the city central committees state that it is only a question of majority. At noon it was discovered that the ballot boxes were too small to hold the votes nnd a requisition was made on County Clerk O'Malloy and City Clem Groves for the old boxes that were used last year. Nearly ono hundred of those boxes were sent out to the various precincts. Wnnl Workers' Occupation Gone. Perhaps the most noticeable feature of the practical Illustration of the operation of the Australian ballot law wns the Inactivity in some places and tno total absence in others of the ward heelers who have heretofore been such prominent ilgures about the polls. The idea was very prevalent nnd was gen erally remarked thut the passage of the law had signed the death warrant of these bum mers und political cappers , as henceforth and toicvar their pot occupation is gono. There was no opportunity for the employment of their old methods of intimidation , nnd the fovv of them who showed up in their accustomed places looked and felt sadly out of place as they thought of the good old days when tnoy had unlimited license to bulldoze and bnbo us circumstances would admit. In ttio language of the day "they were not in it , " and none know it batter than themselves. There were uono of the rolls of ones nnd twos or pockets full of silver cartwbeols to bo slipped into the itching palms of the many who thougnt their vote was worth something. There was vacant space where formerly thu capper perambulated up nnd down the line to see mat no slight of hand work was Uono in changing the tickets after his cheaply purchased chattel was headed for the win dow. The ofllelous and well p.Uu hummer was not called upon to wait/ around the cor ner und dictate ttio scratching of a ticket or the entire substitution of ono for another. It wns all now , and the change was u most agreeable ono to everybody but the sharks who had boon legislated out into tno cold. Busiest Man in the City. Probably the busiest man in the city wns Chairman Diclr Smith of the republican city central committee , under whoso able leadorstiip such excellent organization wns elTccted all ever the city In pre paring for the work of election day. The work of preparation was not all , how ever , for the programme to bo carried out , and to keen track of what is going on ! n eighty-eight precincts is no small taslr , yet Mr. Smith got around personally to dozens of thorn , heard directly from nil the others ncd found tlmo to listen to all complaints nnd provide moans for lollof. lie did not nllow the interest to lag , but kept his lieutenants on the move. To his efforts were largely duo the oaily polling of so largo a percentage of the business vote , nnd the little difllculty experienced by voters In preparing - paring to deposit their ballots. An o.sted a Challenger. At 1 o'clock the foreman of the Donohoo gang of graders went to the police station nnd furnlshea ball for seven of the gang who were arrested Monday for stealing. Ho took tnom to the First precinct of the Seventh ward nnd had them voto. EIo previously announced tuat tueso were sovan straight democratic votes that the republicans had tridd to steal by having the men arrested. Mr. C. II. Thomas promptly challenged the votes of the graders and protested thut tnoy should not bo given the right of franchise. Ho was arrested at the Instigation ot the democrats nnd taken to the police station. Mr. N , J. Maxwell , the republican chal lenger nt the SoventU precinct of ttio Fifth ward came to the republican hondqunitors at o'clock nnd said the democrats had run him out. Ho said that a great many voters were pretending that they could not read and the judges were fixing the tickets for them. Ho protested against some of the business that looked crooked und the Judges told him to shut his mouth nnd get out of thctc. lie saw that the election board was solid against him so ho left the polls. Itul'iiscd to Ijit AYomoii Vote. At the Seventh precinct of the Seventh ward several women wont to the polls to vote but the Judges refused to ndmlt thorn to the booth and refused to furnish them with ballots. MIsi Hanna Roberts visited thu re publican headquarters and mndo complaint about the matter. She was Informed that she might gut out n mandamus mid compel the Judges to receive her ballot. In some precincts the votes of the women were accepted on school bond matters with out protest. In the First district of the Fifth ward tno first applicant for a ticket was u little woman who carried a baby In her arms , She wns allowed to vote , and her oxnmplo was fol lowed by a number of other women. In the Second district of the Fifth the Judges were not so fatherly ana refused the right of frnn- chiso to women undnr any nnd all circum stances. They Droml Coltl Wonthor.

The dispute arose ever the Mllwaukoo & St. Paul competing for business to which the Maple Leaf thnuEht It had no claim. The chairman allowed the St. Paul to meet tlio Maple Loaf's rules but af terward changed his mind and ruled tint the St Paul had no right to apply short line rates on excursion buslnuis when it did not do so on regular.

The Maple Leaf put in n claim for about ? 2f > 00 damages for loss of revenue occasioned bv tno chairman's lirat ruling , while the St. Paul appealed from his second decision.

Second , the charges would not hold because the statute contemplated astute war , also that a vessel coming to the United States to got arms nnd carrying thorn peaceably away was not fitting out nny expedition that had already boon set on foot by Chili nnd was bciiitf conducted from there and not from the United States.

These adulterated powders arc''ehoved upon the public with the greatest persistency. "t Throbbing advertisements in newspapers claiming this brand or that is absolutely pure , backed by analyses and cer tificates , and yet they are adulterated with ammonia or alum.

Amid all this fraud and deceit Dr. Price's Cream Bak ing Powder stands almost alone battling for pure food and continues to furnish a pure cream of tartar powder at almost the same cost to the people as the ammoina and alum pow ders are sold at , yet it costs much more to manufacture.
