.1. W. BURLEIGH. Editor and Pnb
A letter received by the North
western of late date from Congress
man Kinkaid, thanking us for our
support in the past, conveying his
thanks as follows for the very generous
support accorded him by the voters
of the district, which officially gives
him a plurality of (>,236:
My Dear Mr. Burleigh:—Now that
the campaign is over and the result
generally ascertained, I am writing
you to thank you and do thank you
most heartily for what you have done
both individually as well as thru your
Northwestern in behalf of my candi
dacy. I would be glad if you would
thank the voters generally in your
county for me, regardless of party,
for their very generous support.
My plurality is 6,236; two years ago
it was 4,700 and four years ago it was
2,400. With the ballot seven feet long
and my name five feet down from the
top, the compliment implied by so
many thousands coming ‘‘across,” as
it were, for the sole purpose of voting
for me individually is too great for
due acknowledgment by me. No one
could reasonably expect to be more
highly honored by a constituency. 1
am indeed grateful to the people re
1 gardless of party for the generous
support given me and would esteem
it as a personal favor if you would so
express me in your valuable paper in
substance at least as in this paragraph
contained.
Sincerely Yours,
M. P. Kinkaid.
A sensational political aftermath
was sprung on our people last Friday,
when VV. J. Fisher, late candidate for
county attorney at the hands of the
progressives in this county, and who
on the face of the returns was de
feated by 295 votes, tiled papers in
contest of the election of his oppon
ent. J. S. Pedler, who received the
votes of republicans, democrats and
socialists, as their candidate, and who
received, according to returns 1075 to
Fisher’s 780. In the complaint, which
covers some twelve pages of closely
typewritten copy,»it is claimed that
the corrupt practices act was violated
at both elections, and names numer
ous and divers persons who are claimed
to be the beneficiaries of various
amounts not in accordance with the
provisions of the above act. The
third ground of complaint is that Mr.
Pedler was not entitled to the some
four and more hundred votes he re
ceived from the democratic and
socialist voters at the general election.
The case will come up at the next
session of the district court. It is
not in the province of the newspaper
to express in advance of the hearing
of the case in the district court any
opinion regarding the above, either
favorable or adverse, and we merely
give the facts as taken from the com
plaint tiled without color.
Some three years ago, a man came
into the Northwestern office and
asked us to send him the paper on
time. Supposing him an honest man,
we trusted him accordingly. After
taking the paper all said time,never of
fering to pay for same, and being cut
off the list, he goes to our contempo
rary and payseashjfor a year’s reading
of that paper in advance. We are
glad to know that our brother is not
destined to lose from the same source.
However, the man is liable to contract
the cash in advance habit hereafter in
reading either of the county papers,
as his reputation has even penetrated
newspaper sanctums.
Our sister town of St. Paul has
aroused itself to virtuous indignation
against speeding auboisbs and has
pulled off a number of fine stunts on
the horseless carriage fellows who
have been going to fast for comfort.
Omaha draws the line at 240saloons
and refuses to grant licenses to more.
Our Odd Fellow brothers are at
present engaged in putting their new
lodge room in fine shape and expect
to occupy the same in about two
weeks. When completed, it will be
one of the finest in the state. The
floor will be coyered with a costly car
pet, and fine upholstered chairs will
be placed at the stations of the chief
officers, while the balance of the fur
niture will correspond. The rooms
will be lighted with electricity. The
local order is out of debt and has
money in the treasury. The outlay
being made will reach close to $1000.
The three-link boys are among our
best people and the best is none too
good for them.
