GADD ELECTED
COUNTY ATTORNEY
CUSHMAN , G1LMORC , MORRIS , AND
QUINT REFLECTED.
ATTORNI'VSIIIP RACO CLOSES.
'I he Fiisionlils Retain Control of the
County Board of Supervisors
Gadd's Majority About
Twent ) .
The county ticket came out
about as th : Republicans expect
ed. Gadtl pulled through for
County Attorney by a narrow
margin uf about twenty votes.
J. H. Gil more and L Cushtnan
wore the two Republicans re-
eleckfl to the County Board of
Supervisors. Ben Morris1 elec
tion in the 7th district has seem
ed to be certain for some time ,
and the chances were in favor of
J. 12. Grint in the first district.
This allows the fusiouist to re
tain control of the County Board
for another year.
The contest between Gadd and
Beal forthe county attorneyahip
was very close and interesting
The result was in doubt from the
start until the last town-
shiu returus were in. Gadd
was ahead part of the time and
Beal took the lead part of the
time. Gadd's total vote was 2876
dnd Beal's was 2856.
Ciishman for supervisor won
easily with about fifty volen to
the good in this tosvuship which
constitutes his district. He had
had several years experience as a
supervisor and * was an expert on
the road question. lie has made
an able and honest supervisor and
the people recognised this and
refused to vote for a change.
J. B Gilmore of Callaway was
re-elected iu district No 5 with
out much trouble. Frank Fetch
! man , the fusioniat whose petition
was circulated in Gilmore's dis
trict , did not get his petition
fixed up in time to get on the
ticket. John Mt-Quirc of Arnold
who Gledat the paimary and then
withdrew and went on the ticket
by petition made a good race but
j came out 20 behind. Ben Morris
l was elected by an overwhelming
| majority in district No. 7. He
.even . carried his opponents home
' township by a good vote. J. E.
, Giint in the first district carried
1 all but Weslerville township
. which his opponent W. D. Gard-
j IHT carried by 125 votes but that
i v as not sufficient to over come
| Gnnt's big vote in the other
| townships.

HE MADE A TOUCHDOWN
-From Phllnrtplplitn
FOR BRYAN
AND SHELDON
CANDIDATES FOR PRESIDENT AND
GOVERNOR CARRY TUG COUNTY.
MACKEY AND EASTMAN , TOO
The Democratic Electors Secured a Ala-
jority of 110 and tiov. Sheldon
Carries County by 5. Total
Vote About 5601) ) .
The official returns show
that the Democratic National
ticket carried the county by
about HO majority and Sheldon
carried it by 5 votes.
This vote came as some what of
a surprise to even the Democrats
themselves. It was expected
that the Democrats would make
some gains over the usual Demo
cratic vote owing to the fact
taat Brj'an is a Nebraska man
and that two Custer County people
ple Clarence Mackev of Ansley
and W. B. Eastham of Broken
Bow were oo the Democratic
state ticket. Mr. Mackcy's work
in the State Legislature had
given him a strong pull with the
people of Custer county and Mr.
Eastham is one of the oldest
Democrats in the county and a
man who has put in a good many
hard licks for the Democratic
party. The presence of these
two men on the Democratic
ticket strengthened it. More
over Bryan was especially
anxious to carry Nebraska arid a
yre.it amount of time , energy ,
anJ money was spent in order to
make the best possible showing.
Bryan's vote jn this county
was slightly larger than that of
Shallenbergr.r. The Bryan elect
ors t.r cured 2W3 votes and the
Tatt electors secured 2793 vctes.
Sheldon got 2831 votes and
Shallenberger lost the county
with 2826 votes. Sluilleuberger's
vote in the state seems to be
slightly larger than that o
Bryan through Bryan'a ' vote was
larger in this county.
Tuft and Sheldon carried Loup ,
Custer No. 2 , Douglas Grove ,
Wood River , Westerville , Alger
non , Lillian No. 2 , Cliff , Berwyn
and Elim townships. '
Bryan and Shallenberger' '
carried Custer No. I , Victoria ,
Sargent , JCiifoil , Delight , Elk
Creek , West Union No. 1 , Hayes ,
and Comstock townships.
Bryan and Sheldon carried
Garfield , Triumph , Broken Bow
North Side , and Broken Bow
Sjuth-Side.
Bryan carried Ansley township
and Sheldon and Shallenberger
tied on the governorship.
Clarence Mackey of Ansley
the fusion candidate for State
Treasurer proved to be more
popular in his home county than
W. B. Eastham of this city who
was the fusion candidate for
Commissioner of Public Lands
and Buildings. Mackey secur
ed a majority of about 450 over
his opponent , Obrian. East-
ham's vote placed him about 150
in the lead ever Cowles.
Mackey secured 234 votes in
Ansley township while hi- > opponent
ponont secured but 80. ICastham
secur d 444 in Broken Bow town
ship and his opponent came out
with 329.
C. II. Ildibough of Broken
Bow the Socialist candidate for
Governor , secured about 45 votes
in this county.
Aside from the local candi
dates , the county gave the Re
publican stale ticket a small
majority. This would indicate
that the county ib still Republi
can but that the extra ordinary
effort of the Democrats carried it
for Bryan , Mackey and Eastham.
Gambling in Comstodc.
Some young men in Comstock
were caught gambling a short
time ago and t'ue evidence nee-
cessary to convict them was se
cured. The matter was then
taken up with the County Judge
and County Attorney and they
expressed a willingness to do
whatever the people of Comstock
wanted done. After taking the
question of prosecuting them
under advisement Attorney
Darnell and the people of Com
stock decided to give the boys
another chance for the life.
County Attorney Gulterson
has notified them that the
gambling must cease and that
they will be prosecuted if they
are found gambling again.

ministers in Salt Lake , " said !
Rev. Benjamin Young of the !
First M. E. Church , yesterday !

the bottom of things and doing ;
what is almost impossible t

likewise finding a way of bring
ing about good results tu each
