But thin time a chunyo cunio over tho roHpootablo olomont of tho population of South Omaha. Thoy doclurod against prii-stly inU'rforonco in polition, hy Boerotly pluoin in nomination a comploto city ticket from mayor clear down to aldei'inaii, und went before tho electors with tho cleanoht sot of iiHpir nnts for olllcial positions tho oldest resident of South Omaha has ever seen. Tho citizens' ticket had no paper to fight its battles. All tho praise it re ceived was by word of mouth and by a circular addressed to tho electors of South Omaha, but oven that primitive way of conveying to the voter tho great superiority of tho candidates on tho citizens' ticket over all contestants proved adoquato, as tho returns show that tho entire citizens' ticket has been eloctod, with possibly two exceptions. It is not possible that they can pull through. . According- to tho latest reliable re ports, THR American Is able to assure Its many rudders that South Omaha has boon redeemed; that boodlorlsm is a thin iff tho pasV and ,that It w'l"- nf,t bo either a pleasant or profitable pass. tlmo for drunken Roman Irish to con gregate on tho street corners and nut lign Protestant-Americans simply be' cause they arc known or are suspected of belonging to tho American Pro tective Association. The extended and accurate report of tho election hold Tuesday is tho work solely of our own reporters; and, while it may not bo as lengthy as that pub llshod in our dally contemporaries, It is far more accurato, and can bo lm Illicitly relied upon. Tho table found in another column will give you all the information ob tainable at tho hour of going to press, The Battle of the Ballots. Early Tuesdiiy morning tho friends of tho various candidates began to collect about tho several polling places, and soon carriages and wagons were hurry ing to and from tho booths with loads of men who desired to vote tho ticket being worked by the crowd having thb vehicles in charge. At first there was scarcely any ex citement alxmt tho election liooth. Men quietly cast their ballot and went back to work. Most of tho votes cast up to noon were for tho citizens' ticket, but after that hour tho tide seemed to turn tho other way, and while tho election of Mr. Miller, and most of tho citizens' ticket, seemed assured at tho closing of tho polls, tho counting of tho ballots gave little encouragement until near the close. When tho result was finally an nounced, four strong men picked Hon, C. P. Miller up and carried him around the room several times, while tho others gave vont to their pent up feed ings by cheering lustily. School Board. Messrs. Cheek, Pearl and Thomas were elected as members of tho school board. Three better men could not have been chosen. They all sympa thize with tho public schools and re gard them as tho bulwark of our liber ties. Their majorities are not known hut are sufficiently largo to enable us to assure you that tho schools are In tho right hands. Our Sheriff. During tho forenoon a man was ar rested by a deputy sheriff for peddling sample tickets and electioneering in one of the wards, inside of the pro scribed 100 feet. Our local contempor aries painted their first pages a lurid red with a descript ion of the scene, and told In blood-curdling language what might hapiHjn before tho setting of tho Aim.

Probably few of us ever saw as much printed matter used in campaigns as has boon used in this county the past year. Tuesday tho sidewalks and streets were strewn with campaign clr culars, u fair sample of which wo reprint below: DO YOU WANT to save your , HOME AND PROPERTY? TO CITY MEKCHANTS.

A Star Engagement. Tho night before tho election tho Romans held a mass meeting, which tho J Ire characterizes a democratic mass meeting. Those eminent Romanists, John C. Carroll, Mike V. Gannon, Tim .1. Malioneyand Erwin B. Towl partlci patod In tho melee. Tho Ike gives tho following account of tho meeting: Tho democrats made an abortive at tempt to hold a mass meeting in Blum's hall last night. Tho accumulated stock of campaign enthusiasm proved too much for tho capacity of the build ing, however, and it broke up in con fusion at tho end of tho first act. Tho scenes of tho recent democratic converi' tion were repeated and showed that tho intervening time has only increased tho acrimony that pervaded the ranks of tho unterrlded. Tho meeting was under the auspices of tho South Omaha Democratic club and President John C, Carroll called the meeting to order. Ho Introduced Hon. M. V, Cannon of Omaha, who re marked that ho had always boon a dem ocrat. He added that ho was there to support an independent candidate lie cause his opponent had boon an Imle pendent candidate twq-years before. Ho denounced corruption" in polities In a manner that pointed to the charges which were to follow, anil referred to a long lino of men who had been sacrificed for their principles, extending from Mucins Seavola to M. V. Cannon. Ho was there to protest against the nom ination of a man for mayor of South Omaha who had betrayed his party last fall. Ho produced a photograph of a nolo which ho said was a proof of his trultorous conduct and which had lieon photographed by Judge Ievi. Tho note was dated Novonlier 14, 8')l, arid signed by D. JA Bayless, W. C. Sloane and Ed. Johnston. Its significance as stated by tho speaker, was its effect In inducing Bayless to pull out of the race for county judge. "Do you dare to make such a charge?" said a voice from tho audience. "Yes sir, I do deliberately, and I make tho further charge and I can sut- stantlato it, that your democratic can didate for mayor distributed the ImmhIIo in this city." "It is for you to say," added Mr. Gannon, "whether tho men who Wl'k.t tOt'h-r lht ln,.fitll l II' tt hwtU'H mn l'U( ! n.

Mr. Mahoney took for his text "Splits In iho Deinoernllo Party." lie exhorted the voters to stand by the nominee of Ihe convention and warned I hem I hat to vote for t he lndeiendi'nt candidate would mean the election of Mr. Miller, a republican. Ho called attention to tho fact that the alleged note produced by tho Towl contingent was dated ten days after tho election, and that was as far as ho could go. The crowd pressed up close to the platform and the disorder which had broken out half a dozen times during tho meet ing culminated In a general muss. The president vainly pounded his table with a lH-er glass. Tho rank and II lo of democ racy whooped with added vigor, and pushed up to have a hand In tho gen eral fight that seemed Imminent. Judge IjvI discreetly retired to a fortified position liehind tho stage and a posse of police endeavored to separate tho bollgeronts. Under cover of tho confusion tho speakers deserted the hall, and after a while the crowd went, too. "THE AMERICAN'S" CANVASS I'Oll MAYOIl- EiIwiinI .fuiiiiMon... Cliiuli'M V. Miller Krwln 11.

Just look at the returns from the third precinct of the second ward! There must lie some Americans there. Miller 4."., Johnston 9, Towl 2. A telephone message to Colonel Mike roo, formerly a councilman from the seventh ward, elicited the Information that the election in South Omaha had resulted In an A. P.

I)., in a lecture befom the students of tho Romish Uni versity of Washington some time ago, is thus reported; Why do Catholic writers seek to covt-r up tlic lienors of St. Uartholomew, the cruelties of an Inquisition which burned the flesh of human beings made In God's likeness, or the sell-sulllclent wisdom which refuse to recognize tho truths discovered by Galileo? Iit these stories be told In every child's text book, let them stand, the monu ments they are. to the folly, the blunders, tho siiperstltitlon, the weakness of hu man souls, who, In tholr arrogance, refus ed Intoprct God's Word except to suit their own passion." Turning to the students, the lecture added: "You are to go out to teach, recollect that God does not ask you to cover up the truth. !l im'ti mid Hut Hn lintii ) ri'niitst im!. tifW l t, w. i- m ..f .i 1 1. it I (,n, i h'U-m ),.!

President Harrison, In his address at the(. A. R. encampment in Boston in I!HI, said of us: "They are coming to take our place. The nation will not bo defenseless when we are gone," At tho national encampment, G. A.

But that which I desire to speak of concerning these praises Is that they all seem to think we are organized principally for tho purpose of defend ing our country In case of war. In fact, In nearly every case, whenever we have boon sstken 0 by tho public or press, this seems to bo the leading im pression of us as an organization of today. Hut such Is not tho case. While this Is one of them, It Is not tho prin cipal one. If It should become neces sary, tho Sons of Veterans would de fend our country as their fathers did In the days of '(11, Hut if war should not come, what then are wo U do' Can we do nothing else for our country's sake? Looking at our country as It Is to day, with some of our principal offices In the hands of boodle politicians, with large numbers of foreigners annually landing on our shores, the principles for which our fathers fought, scorned by capital, can we not see a nobler work Iteforo us? Looking at all this, must we spend our time in Idleness, ns It were, and wait for wnr? Shall we watch the for eign element becoming more and more a controlling power, and yet wait for swords to bo crossed before we can take a hand? Shall we see the old Hag dis honored and Insulted, and yet wait for a chance to defend It In ojsm conflict? Shall we close our eyes arid ears to all this, and wait for the time to come when we can shed our bhssl upon the Hold of batt le? No, we must not stop here. There is a greater work for us to do than this. Tho time is, of course, not far distant when the G, A. R, will pass away as an (dement of Influence. We must then lie ready to take its place In peace as well as war. Wo must 1st ready to buckle on Its armour as an Influential Isxly,- to keep burning tho fires of patriotism.

In Its Issue of today appears the following, which Is signed by Iwls Alfonso, minister: "As a Catholic and Mexican I protest against the Insult which the hated and grasping Yankee offers to my ad irod country by the return of our flags, which wero taken from us very much as tho thief and assassin rol the wayfarer of hi belonging. My faith, my nationality and my Latin blood all eomjiol mo to cry out, 'f,ong live Iridic jsmdent Mexico! Heath to the thiev ing Yankee! Down with the hated (lag of tho star and stripes!"

The muni cipal elections held throughout this state resulted In victories for republi can tickets In a number of democratic strongholds, while the demisTuts were successful in others. The great feature of the election was that religion and politics were mixed in a large numlsT of towns. In such cities as Saginaw, (fraud Rapids, Port Huron and West Hay City and In many smaller places the anti-Catholic issue was a strong one, calling out a tremendous vote. In most places tho result was such as to give the antl-Cuthnllo element grounds for claiming the victory, although, In u mixed political situation, there were ot her controlling issues. Out of fifty or more of the principal cities arid towns in t he state the returns show victories for the republicans for twenty-five, while twenty went demis-ratlo. In a riiimlsir of cities the result was mixed, while in others the non-partisan ticket was elected. 0 All in Favor, Vote "Ye."
