DISREGARD THE VOTERS, KLKCTION MiCTIIODM IN ALA KAMA AKK liJCUUOT TO LIUIIT. Committee Iteporta the Klectlon V.awa of That Htnte an n Fraud to Thwart the Will of the l'eople. Washington, Jan. 2& An un usually Bovore arraignment of alleged election frauds is -made in the report by house committee on elections No. 1, in tho case of William F. Aldrich against Thomas S. Plowman, from tho fourth district of Alabama. Mr. Plowman is the sitting member, but tho committee submits a recount of the vote giving Aldrich, republican ana populist candidate, tho seat. The report says in part: We shall endeavor to demonstrate by what methods the will of the people was thwarted. Id doing ho not all of the frauds perpetrated will be referred to; o."l; salient features can bo touched and representative in stances cited. If the election laws of Alabama had been designed to encourage fraud and thwart the people's will, they could not bave boon in some respects more happily framed to meet that purpose. After criticising the Alabama elec tion lawns putting the honest voto ut the mercy of dishonest markers, the report says: When it is known that the condition for such a state of facts exists, it is not strange that illiterate voters should remain away from tne polls in the houe that they would not at least furnisii ammunition for their political opponent, but this m.itie little differ ence to the democratic maongers in Dal. us county. Tney voted the illi terate colorrd mon, u'et.-nt or absent. Tho machinery w is simple and effec tive. Fortunately it h s been discov ered and the details of its operations l;id bare. Fraud is everywhere, not lurking or secret, but bold and inso lont. Fraud is of live kinds: 1. Filling the poll list with names of persons not registered; sometimes of fictitious persons, and sometimes of pe'hons who did not live in the pre cinct 2. By padding the poll list with names of persons on the registration list who did not vole. 3. By imposing on illiterate voters. 4. By the old-fashioned method of falsely recording votes. 5. By refusing to hold any election at all in certain strong republican precincts. After going into much detail on the alleged frauds, the cenmittoe says it has revised the vote on the most con servative lines, giving Aldrich a plu rality of 542, whereas the election of Plowman was claimed by 2,967 plu rality. INFORMATION AND OPINIONS. Nebraska City is figuring on adding several new enterprises to its list this spring. Speaking of this the News 6ays that all that is needed to insure the future of the town is a commercial club. Some Plattsmouth people might give them some pointers on the latter. Tomorrow is ground heg's day, but The News man will not attempt to write any poetry or say anything funny about it. Rev. Joe Jones, brother of Sam Jones, preached at Nebraska City last Sunday. Tecumseh Chieftain: A Tecumseh woman who is mortally afraid cf lire invented a device by means of which the pulling of a string will release every fastening of her garments and allow them to drop from her. If she is prudent when she goes out on the street she will not leave her "latch string dangling on the outside." BRIEFLY TOLD. C. A. Marshall, Dentist. Smoke "Gut Heil" cigars.

That dark brown taste and horrid breath you have in the morning is caused by an inactive liver. Some medicines relieve for a while; others for a few days, but Herbine cures. Children and adults tortured by burns, scalds, injuries, eczema or skin diseases may secure instant relief by using DeWitt's Witch Hazel Salve It is the great Pile remedy. F. G Fricke & Co. Don't annoy others by your cough ing, and risk your life by nelecting a cold. One Minute Cough Cure cures coughs, colds, croup, grippe and all throat and lung troubles. F. G Fricke & Co. A would-be suicide and one or two attempted murders were among the pastimes in the city Sunday, but as they only resulted in "close calls" for the respective victims no details will not be published. There's no hotter flour made than Feisel's" Plansifter," manufactured in this city. Ask your grocer for it, and thereby get the best and sup portdi home industry at tho same time, which builds up the town. Is your liver tired? does it fail to do duty? If so, don't neglect its call for help. A few doses of Herbine may 3ave you a spell ofosickness. Herbine is the only .perfect liver medicine. It cures Chills and Fever. 75c. There is no remedy equal to Herbine for the cure of constipation, sick headache, indigestion, vertigo, loss of memory, uncertain appitite, un restful sleep or skin eruptions, If you want a perfect tonic for the liver, Herbine will not disappoint you. There are three little things which do more work than any other three little things created they are theant, the bee and Do Witt's Lit tle Early Risers, the last being the famous lit tle pills for t-tomach and liver trou bles. F. G. Fricke & Co. A thrill of terror is experienced when a brassy cough of croup sounds through the house at night. But the terror soon changes to relief after One Minute Cough Cure has been administered. Safe and harmless for children. F. G. Fricke & Co. Whooping cough is the most dis tressing malady; but its duration can be cut short by the use of One Minute Cough Cure, which is also the best known remedy for croup and all lung and bronchial troubles. F. G. Fricke & Co. After years of untold suffering from piles, B. W. Pursell of . Knitnersville, Pa., was cured by using a single box of DeWitt's Witch Hazel Salve. Skin diseases euch as eczema, rash, pimples and obstinate sores ate readily cured by this famous remedy. F. G. Fricke & Cc k season of religious awakening ought to result from the work auspi ciously begun by prominent evange lists this week in both the Presby terian and Christian churches. Good crowds were ia attendance last even ing, which will be much larger to night. We are anxious to do a little good in this world and can think of no pleasanter or better way to do it than by re commending One Minute Cough Cure as a preventive of pneumonia, consumption and other 6erious lung troubles that follow neglected colds. .
