TIIE OMAHA DAILY BEE: FRIDAY. OCTOBER 24, 1902. REPORT SCHEME FOR FRAUD NEBRASKA RAILROAD ASSESSMENTS Improves With Age BteTjto Effect list 6:ris Bnken Vill Be Eegirterei THIRD WARD TO BE CENTER OF ACTIVITY What They Are What They Should Be. Jap Rose is so pure that the older it gets the better. And its odor is the perfume of natural flowers refreshing, delightful. The tabular statement herewith presented embodies a comparative exhibit of railroad assessments for 12 and 1W2, showing the mileage of the various railroads in each county, their relative assessment per mile, their true value based on earnings and capitalization, and their assessable value equalized at a ratio of one-sixth of their true value. ftesldeat of laloa PaelBe She Said to Be Fixe to larrraw ate far Cesaoaay'a (a aire far Report r-erlved laet night Indicate that the Nlath precinct ef tbe Third ward i( to be cne of tb danger points la registration today; that at tb.it place ao attempt will be made to regitter a large nambrr of the bki who since the strike oa the Vnicn Pa cific railroad have hn re, ding temporarily la tba chop of that company at strike breaker. These men hare been herded to gether from all quarter of the country, eomlng from the cltlea of the eart prin cipally. The atrike began daring tba Utter part of June, but It an two week latrr before tba Importation of acab In any num ber began, ao that the oldeat resident of the felon Pacific abopa could not htve been there more than four month. The report la that tbe colonization plan la being directly engineered by men la the abopa who formerly Lved la town. These toea. it k aald. are all la line for D. H. Mercer and are "out for the stuff." ao far a other candldatea art concerned. It It aid that tbe plan goea deeper thta the present election, at tbe men are to register aa democrat te throw off suspicion from their real Intention and to take part la a realignment of the democratic party If they are permitted to retain tbeir Job with tbe railroad company until next aprlDg. A watch la being kept and illegal Totera will be arretted. While the names and reputed places of realdenc of persona who haTe fraudulently Toted at the last republican primary hare beea published, thut proving beyond all ajueittoa that f-aud wa perpetrated, other clrcuButanUal evidence of that fraud con firm tha charge. One of the most hotly contested primaries which were ever held la this city were la the sena torial contest of ir00. At that primary a larger proportion of the total vote was brought out than had erer been previously cast. There were conteau in every ward, and at that primary there were cast S.01S votes. Irt month there was no contest la tbe Ninth ward and practically none in tht Third. In these wards there was a decreets la the rote last month from tbe primarlea of 10 of 242 votes, yet In the nine wards of tbe city there waa a net Increase of 240. or aa Increase in tbe seven wards of the city outside of the Third and Ninth of 4KJ votes, or more than 10 per cent of tbe total vote cast In the seven wards. This in crease In the vote over 1900 represents, practically, the majority by which Mr. Mer cer apparently carried the city primaries. That this doea not really represent tbe actual rote of tbe people who take part la tba elections ordinarily it shown by tbe fact that at the latt primary there were more than 1.000 votes cast upon affidavit!, a number of which' have been found to be defective la form, and a considerable num ber voted by person who are act to be found at the addresses given by them at tba time they raat tbeir votes, so that from this showing It la easy to see where the votes which nominated the nonresident coegreaamaa came lrom. Aa aspect ion of the certificates and affi davits en file with tbe secretary of the republican county committee shows that out of tha total number of votes caat by affidavit &M voter gave the reason that they were out ef the city dnrtng be days ef tbe last registration, ninety-one of them aid they were sick or had alrkneas la their families during the daya of the last regit . t rati on, eighty-four of them declared they wemsr vi jvg sgje since me lasi reg is tra tie a and eighty-four were sot qualified rltiiens at tbe time of tbe last registra tion. The remainder were for reason not recognised by the law, or tbe certificate which are showa to have beea lacued by in ciera upon an:aavit are not oa file la the office of the secretary of the republican county committee, ao that reasons cannot be ascertained. The large number of person who swore that they were out ef town oa each day of the last regie tretioa will more than make up tba majority by which Mr. Mer cer carried the primaries. Ia a number ef Instance It baa beea ascertained that these people were not out ef towa all of the days of the registration, but some of them were out of the city oa one of the days, while others say that they do not kaow whether they were out cf towa. al though they have swora that they were. Ia one Instance a man waa found who did ant know what excuse was placed upoa bin affidavit. Ia this connection tbe attention of H. S. McDonald waa called to tb- affidavit la tbe case ef C J. Spain, the Eighth ward voter who voted la the Sixth ward apoa affidavit algned by McDonald. Mr. 'McDonald said "If my name ia oa that affidavit I guess I algned 1U but I have as recollection of the matter, nor do I recoil-J Mr. Spain that day. It Is all news to me. and I gueas I had better look the matter tip. A good story la current la democratic circle which rhsw that all la not bar Boaioua la the raakt of the t-ntemfied. It waa kaoaa for some daya previous te tbe aomlnstton of candidate for congrees by that party that George W. Shields, the pre at county attorney, aspired to the place but hi name wa not presented to tbe con ventkoa. the nomination going to G. Ml Hitchcock. When tbe time came for tbe county committee to collect the sinew of war they as usual levied a contribution opes each candidate and office holder. Among the office holders was the lata as pi rati to eocgreasional honor. That a Bsacat ha not been paid and In defense of bl failure to pay the county attorney Is alleged to have aaid that he "didn't rare to pay the aaaoaameat as long as Rose aster Is not making a strong tight apoa Hitch eock."
