A CONTEST.
.8. C. Simple lie* decided to contest
the election of John Crawfdrd m senator
from this district, and John Trommer
ehausser will contest the election of
John Robertson as reprssentatire. The
notice rof contest which Mr. Sample
served upon Crawford last Saturday
alleges fraud In the election in the
preelnots of Spencer, Morton and Basin
in Boyd county, and In Shields and
Grattan in Bolt, the above-named
precincts In Ilolt are also the ones upon
which Mr. Tromtqershausser bases his
hopes of unseating Robertson. The tak
ing of testimony will commence Mon
day.
Tnn Frontier Is opposed to contests
on general principles, but believe* that
It !• time that the men who run thing*
in *Grattan township on election day
were taught a lesion. They have *i
things their own way so Ion? nad
seem to Imaglne-cn ** * at
against exn„r “'sd ' |be«,..elwew proof
H-V*-., f^usure or investigation. They
vote minors and Idiots without reser
valion or the slightest compunction;
they allow outsiders to go into the
booths with voters, when,the outsider Is
known to be of the right political faith,
and commit many other irregularities
where fraud, intentional or otherwise,
might be committed.
These are a few of the reasons why
we would like to see thle contest carried
to a successful termination. We want
some people to understand in the future
that there is liable to be a hereafter if
they [persist in these strange actions on
election day. In other words we want
a -square deal in every precinct
even if the war must be carried to
Lincoln.
It is Just as easy to be honest as dis
honest in eleotlon matters and the sooner
some people get Into the former habit
the sooner everything will run smoothly.

There is one bad thing about a per

When the election returns from the
nouth are carefully gone over the claim
of the populists, that they, and not the
democrats, will be the principal oppo
nents of the republicans in ’96, appean
altogether probable.
The republican gains in live states
was as follows: Mew York, 77,740;
Pennsylvania, 67,157; Indinia, SI,017;
Minnesota, 82,678 and Wisconsin, 16,"77.
It ceitainly wasn’t the stay-at-home
democrats who licked their party in
those states.

Tub Frontier advocated one winning
measure In the recent election anyway;
we advised the defeat of the bounty on
wolf acalpa and the bounty waa defeated.
That our advice waa the immediate
cause of the defeat of the question will
admit of no doubt and consequently no
debate.

While the evidence in tbe case did not

The Fremont Herald saya that des
pite the recent sweeping republican
victories the Iron workers at Munice
have struck for higher wages. Is there
anything strange in lhatT Are not the
Iron worker* still under Wilson tariff,
and does the Uerald imagine menu*
facturers are going to raise wages with
no more substantial«foundation than
anticipation?
It is authoritatively stated that the
election of Holcomb will not be con
tested. There can be no doubt but that
this conclusion I* a wise one. Holcomb,
surrounded by a republican house, sen
ate and state officers, can do no harm as
governor. While it may give the
state a bad name, it is better to let him
serve, though possibly elected by fraud,
than to be under suspicion of counting
him out.
According to expert Henery Walter
aon, the account stands about thua: Mr.
Grover Cleveland, to the democratic
party, Dr.: To one election to be sheriff
ot Buffalo; to one election to be mayor
of Buflalo; to one election to be gover
nor of New York; to three nominaliona
to be prealdent of the United Slates; to
two electiona to be prealdent of tbe
United Statea. Cr.: By diaruptlon of
tbe party and one crushing defeat.
At tbe late election in Dakota county
the people girded up their loina and
swiped the auperviaor system out of
existence ao far as their county is con
cerned. It la but a question of time
until Holt county voters will awake and
realise that Tun Frontier has
been telling the truth in regard to the
workings of the system in this county,
and repeal it. It mystifies us that an
intelligent people could harbor the
system as long as they have.
Tub state senate will consist of
twenty-five republicans, seven popa and
one democrat. In the house there will
be seventy-three republicans out of one
hundred members. In tbe face or these
figures it will not do for the populists to
say that the contests of Sample and
Trommershausser are made of necessity.
If they are seated as senator and rep
resentative respectively, it will be be
cause the contest will disclose the fact
that their defeat was neither regular nor
fair.
Rather queer that when tome irrit
able editor dedicatee a warm article to
the Wandering Jew that he should turn
in hie agonizing pain and score the
editors of The Frontier. We, surely,
are not author of all of bis woes; God
forbid. From the way he acts we take
it that we have hurt him worse than all
of the rest of the boys put together and
he intends putting in the balance of bis
misdirected life getting even. Let the
poor fellow enjoy himself: it is a harm
less amusement.
Election returns from Nebraska
seem to base somewhat soured Sec
retary Morton. In reply to an inquiry
from a Nebraska newspaper man as to
the accuracy of the report that the
Omaha postofflce would be taken up
and disposed of before congress con
vened, Secretary Morton. answered that
the postmaster general had been absent
from the postofflce department for three
weeks because of a severe cold, and that
the president is busy on his annual
message. “Therefore," said Mr. Morton,
“while the postmastership at Omaha is a
matter of importance and great concern,
I do not see any reason for its being
taken up just at this time. The friends
of sound eeonomics, the anti-vagarists,
anti-lunacy money men ought to be able
to select a postmaster without any out
(side interference.”
This is Thanksgiving day, and for all
a great many feel that they have nothing
for which to be thankful this year, a
careful inventory may reveal some little
things that have been spared to us and
with which would dislike to get along
without, therefore It is meet that we pul
on a bright smile today, even though
there be an aching void under our rest,
and give thanks that we are permitted tc
live and partake of the glorious Nebraska
wind, which is free. Governor Crounse
has penned the following lines upon
this subject to the people of the state:
"In conformity with the proclamation
of the president of the United States, I
do hereby aopoint Thursday, November
29, 1894, a day of thanksgiving and
prayer throughout the state. Owing to
the extraordinary drouth which has pre
vailed in some portions within our
borders during the year now drawing to
a close, we cannot rejoice in the bountl
fullnesa of crops with which we bavo
usually been blessed. I would, therefore
especially urge upon those who have an
abundance to contribute generously to
the less fortunate and' by bounteous
charity lift the clouds of want and dis
tress wherever found, thus making glad
every heart, so that the day may be in
truth as well as in form, a day of tbanW
giving.”
