It is Believed State llepubllciur
Ticket Elected.
Ao usual election returns for Ne
braska are slow in getting In and
estimates only can be made from returns -
/ turns now in. It is believed however
that the state ticket is elected with
the exception of U. S. Senator. Some
of the localities that wore expected
to pile up a huge majority for Dahl
man fell short of their expectations.
Hall county fell down far below
what was expected , Box Butte coun
ty which had been slated for Dahl-
"nian gave a majority for Aldrioji
according to meager reports receiv
ed.
One bulletin gives the following ,
"Aldrich elected by five to ten thous
and , Hitchcock twenty- five thous
and. "
A heavy vote was cast .throughput
the state , all available energy was |
put forth to poll a full vote for all
parties. Never in the history of
Nebraska were the results so un
certain. People who here-to-foro
wcer never known to interest themselves - ! |
selves in political matters were hard I !
at work to further the Interests of
a-'bctter Nebraska. A record seema
to have been made in establishing
the lact that "Cleanliness is next
to Godliness" and that this rule
must apply to the politics of our
state. While positive figures are
not available at this time it Is
thought that the above figures on
governor are safe and hopes are
, entertained that even a larger majority
v
jority will bo found when all return
are in.-
Marrled At the Methodist parson
age , Sunday Nov. G , Mr. Lee I.
Glidcwell of Berwyn , Nebr. , to Miss
Inn. Loralne Ilatflold of Anslcy , Neb.
They wore accompanied by Mr. Wm.
Ilatfield ot 'Ansley and Miss May
Crow of Berwyn.
Below wo give the vote on all
candidates votetlon last Tuesday at
the two voting precincts in Broken
Bow. The county board will bo re
publican. Next wcok wo will give
the vote of Custcr Bounty in full.
As wo go to press the returns are
not all in and wo do not care to
publish a long list of incomplete
llgurcs , belio\lng a weeks delay and
a correct statement will bo moro
satisfactory.

That Nebraska can still bo count

Vote on Senator.
, the preferential tc'for U. S.
Uenator Gilbert M. Hitchcock has
defeated senator lOlmor .1. Burkott
by a majority in the neighborhood
of 15,000. Hitchcock- carried Douglass
'
lass county by upwards of 9,000 ,
% 'hllo Burkott was given only 822 i
fnajorlty in Lancaster.
The total vote is light , and on
foveinor will hardly run above 230 ,
000. With two-thirds of this vote
tubulated , including Douglass county' '
s ul not Including Lancaster , where
the returns are not yet complete ,
Aldrich has u lead over Dahlirian
of 20,000. The precincts of Lan
caster county reported give Aldrich
2,200. The vote still to bo tabu
lated will surely incicase the lead
'for Aldrich.
* Legislative returns are still in
complete , but it looks as if both
houses will bo democratic.
To The Public :
I thank you for your support and
kind consideration. I have tried to
. & my duty. . 1 have no excuses to
make. I still Insist that tiTo only
place suitable of a Rum Joint is
in the middle of I loll and I have
no particular grudge at His Satanic
Majisty , the ruler of that domain.
My friends ! I thank you from the
bottom of my heart. Let mo as
sure you I will strive to live right.
Sincciity of purpose in man , Is for
that Being whoso law is perfect ,
'and ' whose Judgement does not err ,
to determine.
