From their own words it will be seen that
prominent members of the local bar and
bench, a well an lending business men ol
Omaha, regardless of political affiliation,
consider Judge W. W. Slabaugh, republican
nominee for county attorney, In the highest
degree, an a man, a lawyer, a Judge and
particularly a publio proaecutor. Ilia ca
reer aa deputy county attorney la pro
nounced moat creditable, showing him to be
a fearleaa and most efficient pros"Cutor and

commended as an able. Impartial and gen

Worthy Erery Republlcaa.
Judge Day, District Court I' have known
Julge Slabaugh aa a county proaecutor, an
attorney and Judge of the dlatrict court
for tnanr yeara. In eyery capacity I hava
known him aa a man of Integrity and
ability. When he waa assistant county at
torney I had occasion to closely observe
hla work and know It to have been strong
and effectual. He made a splendid officer.
He became a terror to the wrong-doer
whose lot it waa to be proaecuted by Mr.
Slabaugh. Aa a judge he waa eminently
fair and able. When he left the district
bench he took with him an enviable repu
tation among his numerous associates of
the bar and bench. Then; aa an attorney
since his eight yeara on the bench, he has
displayed remarkable power and ability. I
really have been surprised at the retention
of hia force and effect aa a pleatier before
the bar after so long a time as judge. He
tried one case before me. In which County
Att ney English waa on the other aide, an!
I was so struck with the powerful showing
made by Judge Slabaugh that I went to
him after the trial waa over and congratu
lated him. I do not hesitate to
say that, If elected. Judge Slabaugh will
make an excellent county attorney. There
Is no reason why every republican ahould
not vote for Judge Slabaugh.
W. A. Baundera It seems unnecessary to
make any statement regarding the ability
and record of Judge Slabaugh as a clticen,
a lawyer and official. For eighteen yeara
I have known him intimately. He la one
of out most useful citizens; as a lawyer
ho la one of our ablest, all who have wit
nessed .hla trial of causes know that 1s
true. When he waa deputy county at
torney In 1883-4-6, he proved,' to be one
of the beat prosecutors this county ever
had, and this la a fact and not almply
a statement. Hia record upon the bench
la clean, able and Just. If he la elected
as he surely will be, Douglas county
will have one of the strongest men In
that office it ever had. These are facts,
and if they are not known, they ahould
be known.
' Able and Impartial.
Joseph Hayden From years of acquaint
ance with Judge Slabaugh, I know him
to be 4 flrat-clasa cltlsen, an able attorney,
and If elected to the position of county
attorney, I believe will make a good, able,
impartial prosecuting officer.
C. D. Woodworth I know the record of
Judge Slabaugh aa deputy county attor
ney, and the citizens of this county who
lived here in 1891, 1894 and 1835, all. know
of It, .'whan he waa nputy county at
torney, and if, .you, don't believe ha Is the
man for the place, come over. to the court
house next year and tri.tch ''hint In the
prosecution of his duties. , '' l , '
J. L. Kaley I can't are why you want
any statement aa to Judge . Slabaugh's
fitness., for the office of county atorney.
The people of this county know his record
as a public officer and that speaks louder
In his favor than any words of praise
from me. He served as county , attorney
under me for two yeara and I know from
actual experience that he Is a faithful
and vigorous prosecutor and am certain
.If elected to the office he will serve the
people well and faithfully.
Major R. 8. Wilcox Having known Judge
W. W. Slabaugh for many years, I take
the 'liberty of saying that he Is one of
Omaha's beet, most active and energetic
citizens, in la an able lawyer and with
out solicitation on his part, he was ap
pointed deputy county attorney In 1893 and
served for, three years,, and had the repu

tation of being one of the best and most
vigorous prosecutors thnt Douglas county
has ever had. Hia record as a citizen,
lawyer. Judge and prosecutor, admirably
fits him for the office of county attorney
of this county, and I shall vote for him,
snd I hope that he'will be elected, and If
elected, the Interest of the county and
state In this locality will not suffer.
Entitled to Sapport of All.
Theodore Johnson Judge Slabaugh Is one
of our best lawyers and a man of good
record. He Is one of our most usefuf
citizens and his unselfish effort In behalf
of his city's advancement through Its Im
provement clubs, together with hla fitness
for the office, entitles him to the support
of all voters.
C. E. Black I have known Judge Sla
baugh for many years, both on and off the
bench. I consider him an honest, upright
man and an able lawyer and fully capable
of filling the office he Seeks. '
C. H. T. Rlepen Having known Judge
Slabaugh for many years, as deputy
county attorney, district judge and aa a
member of the Modern Woodmen of Amer
ica, I consider him worthy of every man's
vote for county attorney.
W. F. Ourley W. W. Slabaugh was deputy
county attorney for three years and during
that period waa engaged In the trial of a
large number of important criminal cases.
I had good opportunity of estimating his
ability aa a proaecutor, having been en
gaged In the defense of a number of Im
portant cases when he was representing
the state. It Is only fair to Mr. Slabaugh
to say that he was one of the most ener
getic, capable and resourceful prosecuting
officers this county has ever had. There
can be no question of his ability to fill
the office of county attorney most accept
ably. His legal experience and training
qualify him far beyond the average lawyer
for the performance of the arduoua and
Important duties of the office.
Police Judge Berka The only comment I
can make on Judge Slabaugh Is his good
record, which commends him for the office
he seek.
P. B. Myers, President of Myers-Dillon
Drug Co. I believe Judge Slabaugh would
make a capable and efficient officer If
elected county attorney.
Onaht to Be Elected.
" H. C Brome and A: H. Burnett We
have known Judge Slabaugh for the past
sixteen years. He, is the present can
didate of the republican party of Douglaa
county for the Important office of county
attorney and In our Judgment he ought to
be elected. He possesses in a marked
degree the energy, ability and integrity
essential to the proper discharge of the
duties of that office. There Is no reason
why any republican should fall to cast his
vote for Judge Slabaugh.
W. J. Broatch I have known Judge W.
W. Slabaugh for aeveral years and believe !
him to be clean and reputable, and that
he would fearlessly and conscientiously dis
charge the duties of county attorney should
he be elected to that office. He Is entitled
to the full support of his party.
' Morris Levy, President of the Nebraska
Clothing Company Aa the statement I
gave to the World-Herald'a representative
waa only partially reported, I desire to
state that -I consider W. W. Slabaugh,
republican nominee for county attorney,
a man well .equipped for the position he
desires to be elected to, and I believe. If
elected, will make a capable and efficient
officer and will perform the duties of his
office courageously and honestly.
A. Mandelberg I consider W. W. Sla
baugh, the republican candidate for county
attorney, a moat excellent lawyer, and frem
the record he made while in that office.
Justifies me In saying that If he Is elected,
the interests of the people of Douglas
county will be protected and well looked
after.
A. L. Sutton, District Judge I have been
acquainted with Judge Slabaugh during the
past fifteen years arid have always found
him to be an honest, conscientious, pains
taking lawyer,. of. far, more than .ordinary
ability. His record upon ' the , Hla Wet 'i
bench in this judicial district la above re
proach, it being generally conceded that
his judicial work was meritorious. .Before
entering upon the district bench he acted
In the capacity of prosecutor In this county
and his work was highly satisfactory to
those who believe In law and order. A
cleaner lawyer or a more upright, man
could not have been nominated for the
position.
Know Only Good of Him.
A. C. Troup, Dlatrict Judge I have been.
Intimately acquainted with Judge Slal
baugh throughout hla residence In the city
of Omaha and have had much professional
Intercourse with him during that time and
for two yeara was associated with him as
aaalatant county attorney of Douglas
county, and will say that, In my Judgment,

. Thousands of sickly girls and women now
take the Bitters in preference to all other wom

and found , it far superior to' all others as a
Monthly Regulator and Tonic for their weak

Backache, Cramps, tlervous Headache, Dizzi

Bloating, Indigestion, Constipation and Dys

you of its value. Try it without delay and

PRIVATE STAMP OVER. THE

county will .have a most able, honest and
fearless prosecutor and the commlrslonera
and other officers of the county a safe snd
efficient counselor.
D. M. Vlnsonhaler, County Judge I have
known W. W. Slabaugh for the last twelve
years and taks great pleaaure In endors.ng
his candidacy for county attorney. His
record aa district Judge and as deputy
county attorney of Douglas county is a
sufficient guarantee that aa county attor
ney he will discharge the duties of th
office In a manner entirely satisfactory to
the people of Douglas county.
General John C. Cowln I have known
Judge Slabaugh well for fifteen years. He
Is an able lawyer, was a splendid prosecu
ting officer as deputy county attorney and
is well equipped to perform the duties of
that office. He made a good Judge pains
taking, conscientious, Jnst. Judge Slabaugh
is one of our best, most useful citizens, has
well earned and is worthy the confidence
and respect of, all.
Captain H. E. Palmer, Postmaster I have
known Judge Slabaugh for many yeara
and it seems to me that his good record Is
so well known by the citizens of Douglas
county that no recommendation of him as
a citizen and a lawyer and as an officer is
necessary. We all know that when he waa
deputy prosecutor under Mr. Kaley and
Mr. Baldrlge that there never was a bet
ter prosecutor and none more faithful to
the dutlca of the office than was he. He
has been one of our foremost citizens, al
ways Interested In every movement that
looks to the betterment of our city. His
record aa a Judge Is marked with fairness
and ability and w- all know that he will
make one of the best prosecuting attorneys
the county has ever had.
VIkot and Experience. .
T. W. Blackburn t am for Judge W. W.
Slabaugh for county attorney because he Is
a vigorous prosecutor, an experienced law
yer and an honest man. He stands for
good government, efficient publio service
and official independence. I believe he will
make a record in the office of which repub
licans and citizens generally will be proud.
I am sure he will Join the beet citizens in
suppressing boodllng, jury bribing and other
violations of law.
John It. Webster Judge Slabaugh will
Will make an able county attorney. He
has Jiad the experience both as a trial law
yer and as a Judge to make him well
equipped for the duties of this office.
A. Hospc Judge Slabaugh Is a clean, cap
able and progressive man. His record
needs no commendation. From his past we
know what his future will be. We know
that this county will have a clean, capable
and courageous officer.
B. A. Benson I have known Judge Sla
baugh for a good many years. He Is not
only a capable, industrious man, but one
who takea a great interest in the progress
and beauty of the city. The Improvement
league owes moro to him than to any other
half dozen men. He will, I believe, make a
capable, industrious and vigorous prose
cutor. ARTISTS LEAVE WITH COIN

FACTS OF DR. FOSTER CASE
Werld-Herald'i Boars-Crow Story Con
damned by Promineit Dsntia'a,
SOCIETY'S ACT ATTRIBUTED TO JEALOUSY
Rraabllraa Candidate Deales Mall
Cloas Statementa-Dr. Clark. Leaves
Society Beeaaae of This Ac
tio Aa-alast Faster.
fnder a great display of black type and
with many long sentences, the World-Herald
announces that Dr. H. A. Foster has
been put under the ban of the Trl-Clty
Dental society and that resolutlona de
nouncing him as a candidate for the legls
lature have been adopted.
By some of the moat prominent dentist
In Omaha thla action Is entirely attribute!
to professional Jealousy, l condemned, and
Dr. Foster highly commended as an honest
man and popular nominee.
The facta In the case are these: On
Thursday evening Dr. Foster was met on
the street by Dr. P. T. Barber, who asked
him to attend a meeting of the society, at
which a bill the dentists want passed would
be discussed. Dr. Foster has not pledged
himself to any legislation on any topic and
told Dr. Barber he could not attend the
meeting. He did volunteer the Information
that the dentists ahould organise and said
he knew It hsd cost ths Iowa dentists
$760 to get a similar bill passed. This
money, he said, had been raised by sub
scription. This was reported to the meeting. And
then to the World-Herald office rushed
certain dentists whom Dr. Foster says are
his professional enemies, and the explosion
followed.
Dr. Foster denies emphatically that he
auggested that the money be raised, or that
It be turned over to him, or anything of
the sort. He merely remarked that the
Iowa dentists had raised that sum and had
spent It In Des Moines. As for himself,
he haa not pledged himself to the enact
ment of any legislation or made any prom
ises to anyone along the line, and he cer
tainly is not soliciting retainers from the
dentists or anyone else.
Interviews with a number of leading den
tists not concerned with the censuring of
Dr. Foster show he has the .respect and
confidence of many of his professional as
sociates. The majority of them ascribe the
misconstruction of his words regarding the
new laws desired by the profession as in
spired by personal Jealousies.
Dr. Z. D. Clark, the vice president, an
nounced that hereafter he will decline to be
connected with the organization In any
way, as he thinks the action taken with
regard to Dr. Foster was entirely outside
the province of the association and wholly
uncalled for. Said Dr. Clark:
"From this on I am neither vice presi
dent of the association nor a member. I
shall do all In my power to elect Dr. Fos
ter to the legislature, believing he Is honest
and capable. I have no doubt what he said
concerning the necessity of funds to pay
for lobbying for the measures wanted by
the profession were misconstrued and
think the kernel of the whole matter lies
In mere Jealousy among some of the den
tists. I know some of them assert that Dr.
Foster disrupted the astoclatlon when he
was president, but I hold that If it had not
been for him there would not have been
any association. The organization Itself
Is a very small potato so far as the profes
sion of Omaha Is concerned. I cannot
commend its dipping Into politics In any
way."
Will Make Votes for Foster.
Dr. O. A. Osantner, Room 309 Ramge
Block Borne years ago I worked for Dr.
Foster and 'had charge of his office while
he was away In Oklahoma for several
months. I found him perfectly square and
honorable In all his dealings. I think the
action of the association will make him
votesv as the people will understand It was
due to professional Jealousy. Very likely
his words regarding the dental bill were
misunderstood and he had no idea of graft
ing. Dr. C. E. Smith. Who Has Offices in the
Douglas Block I don't know of any reason
why I should not vote for Dr. Foster, as I
had Intended to do. Until the charges
against him are proven I shall continue to
believe he Is worthy of the office to which
he aspires.
Dr. Flckes, Who Offices in the Bee Build
ing I am a personal friend of Dr. Fostei
and thoroughly believe In his honesty. The
attacks made upon him b' prejudiced den
tists do not shake my faith in him in the
least. No doubt exlBts in my nffnd but that
he had no idea of any recompense if he
advised the raising of a fund to get the
dental bill through.
Dr. J. H. Wallace, Brown Block I don't
think Dr. Foster meant to graft. I believe
his words were entirely misunderstood.
Dr. J. C. Whlnnery I have the utmost
confidence in Dr. Foster and have always
found him to be all right. I will not be
lieve he had any intentions of getting any
money from the dentists to put their bill
through, provided he was elected to the
legislature.
Dr. H. W. Allwine, Bushman Block Per
sonally, I don't know anything about this
matter, but so far aa I know. Dr. Foster
is honest and reputable. In fighting fakes
and quacks he has given me valuable as
sistance. CRIMINAL CASES DELAYED
Docket Will Not Be Called la Federal
Court I ntll First of De
cember. f
The criminal docket will not be called
In the approaching term of the United
States district court, which begins Monday,
November 14, until the first week In De
cember. This delay Is occasioned from the
fact that the district attorney will be en
gaged in Investigating cases before the fed
eral grand Jury.
Twenty-eight persons are now In the
Douglas county Jail awaiting a hearing be
fore the grand Jury, not counting a large
number of miscellaneous offenders out on
ball, having been bound over for various
offenses, such as bootlegging. The criminal
docket will, therefore, not be called until
after the grand Jury shall have submitted
Its report. The grand Jury will assemble
November 14.
"The trial of former Adjutant OVneral
Colby'a case wll' take place some time dur
ing December," said District Attorney Bax
ter. "We will not begin on It until after
having disposed of the two or three mur
der cases we have before the grand Jury.
The Colby caie will be among the first of
the old Indictments to be tried. After hav
ing disposed of it we shall take up tho cat
tle fencing cases, which are of a quasl
crlmlnal character, and I think we shall
dispose of all of them at this session of the
court At least they- will bo disposed of
before another grand Jury Is called. I do
not know that General Colby Is seeking a
continuance of his case, but the crse cer
tainly will be tried, unleas he succeeds in
securing a continuance over the terra."

V. A. MeOowan of Challlce, Idaho, ex
pects to see his state go republican by
about 12.00. Mr. MeOowan owns conalder
able mining property in the state and Is
on his way west from the St. Louis fair.
"While the democrats have taken up the
Mormon question," he said, "and hope to
draw a good many votes from the repub
licans, the real fight Is on the gubernatorial
ticket. The republican candidate Is a
sheepman and the cattlemen are putting
up a strong fight against him, but I
scarcely think they will win.
"Mr. Gooding, the republican candidate,
has declared himself In favor of the two
mile limit, but tho cattlemen are not re
linquishing the fight. Two years ago Mr.
Gooding was against the two-mile limit law
and he started an action which he car
ried to the supreme court. This law for
bids the herding of sheep within two mllos
of a ranch and where properties are only
three or four miles apart, of course, the
sheep are barred out."
Mr. McGowan was the first man Into

BUREAU TO PROSECUTE FRAUD
Organisation to Fanlah Bad Creditors
Is Formed by Omaha Whole
sale Dealers.
Omaha Jobbers havo organized a bureau
to prosecute frauds and make it warm for
those of their customers who may secure
credit fraudulently or who may decide to
fall when It is to their interest to do so.
At a tecent meeting of the credit men of
the city the president of the National Asso
ciation of Credit Men told of the workings
of a bureau of this kind in Colorado, and
It was then decided that what worked so
well In that state would be a good thing
for Nebraska,
The executive committee of the Omaha
association haa therefore a similar organi
sation. B. M. Andreesen of the Lee-Glasa-Andreesen
company la president; F. E.
Pearce of Paxton & Gallagher, secretary;
J. H. Taylor of F. P. Klrkendall & Co.,
treasurer, and C. W. Russell of M. E.
Smith & Co and Euclid Martin of Parlln,
Orendorff & Martin, representatives of the
executive committee of the Omaha Credit
Men's association.
T. J. Mahoney has been retained as gen
eral counsel of the bureau. It Is the In
tention of the bureau to prosecute to a con
viction all frauds.
HAT PIN AND YELL SAVE HER
Instruments of Defense Drive Foot
pads with Revolvers Away
from Woman.
That a woman with a hatpin and a lusty
yell can do more damage than a cow In a
china shop was Illustrated In Omaha Friday
evening, when Mrs. W. D. Whalen of 649
South Twenty-fifth avenue waa stopped by
two men on her way home. Mrs. Whalen
was nearlng the corner of Twenty-third
street and St. Mary's avenue when two men
Jumped from s hiding place and asked the
woman to stop and deliver over her valu
ables. Nothing daunted, Mrs. Whalen
gave vent to a shrill yell and reached to
her hat for a hatpin, notwithstanding one
of the men was leveling a revolver at her.
The yell and the hatpin were too much for
the men, who took to their heels and ran
far Into the night.
Mrs. Whhlen's husband Is a hack driver
of many years residence In Omaha. Re
cently he was Injured In front of the Her
Grand hotel and hla life waa nearly de
spaired of at the time. Mrs. Whalen has
been nursing him at the family residence
sine that time.
MORTGAGES AND TAXATION
Former Should Be Eliminated aa Item
of Assessment, Sara Tax Com
missioner Fleming;.
In the opinion of Tax Commissioner
Fleming, mortgages should be eliminate!
as an item of assessment for taxes by the
legislature this winter.
"Aside from the question of double taxa
tion Involved, aays Mr. Fleming, "fully
three-fourths of the taxable mortgages on
Omaha property are held by nonresidents
and cannot be taxed. In the rases of
mortgages that are taxed the holder la
careful to aee the property owner pays
enough additional interest to defray the
taxes. The whole burden, therefore, falls
upon the man who owns the realty and
has been forced to make a Iran upon It.
Inasmuch as a plan to separate the value
of the mortgage from the to'al va'ue of
the property and tax each would result in
a great loss of taxes by reason of the fact
that the mortgage owned outKlde cannot be
assessed. I favor total abolition of the
taxation of mortgages."

plenty of pluck?
Does he hold out?

essentials. It makes the
