REPUBLICANS CLAIM
EVERY NORTHERN STATE
Roosevelt Elected by Largest
Majority of any President
, ' , ' Heretofore/
Democratic national committee
concedes that Roosevelt has carried
every doubtful state and got in
creased majorities in republican
states. Nebraska goes 65,000 to
70,000 for Roosevelt , but the vote
on governor will be close. Re
publicans claim that Mickey is
elected by small majority.
Fusion committees claim that
Berge is elected governor.
Congressman Hitchcock defeat
ed in 2nd district by only a small
majority.
McKillip also defeated in 3rd
district.
Republicans elect Kinkaid to
congress from the 6th district ,
Bresee to the state senate and Hor-
ton state representative.
Folk is elected governor of Mis
souri by 40,000 to 50,000.
Deleware elects a democratic
-governor.
- : Massachusestts gives democratic
.governor 36,000 plurality and
Roosevelt 89,000 plurality.
' West Virginia elects democratic
'governor but electoral vote goes
to Roosevelt.
La Follette ( rep ) is re-elected
governor of Wisconsin by 60,000.
Colorado is claimed by both re
publicans and democrats but the
state will give a small plurality to
the democratic governor.
Nevada is the only state in the
west not claimed by the republi
cans.
Montana elects a democrat gov
ernor but goes for Roosevelt.
Parker is defeated by a bigger
majority than W. J. Bryan.
A party of the people and by
tho people will overthrow Roose-
voltism in 1008 but it must have
its orign and support principally
frond the agricultural and indus
trial pursuits of life.
Republicans are boasting over
their victory and are rejoicing in
tho election of John M. Tucker
county attorney of Cherry county
by a large majority.
With victory comes a responsi
bility. There will be a greater
task now to convince the people
to attack the
llu that Roosevelt means
lluo
o trubts.

C
111 111 Money and Fraud the Stock
of the Combine ,
Money ai d fraud constitute the
final resource of the combine that
is seeking to elect its candidates at
the polls today in Douglas county.
It may be safely counted that
flothiDg that can be do je in either
direction will be left undone.
An offer" o f 60'd was made to an
influential employee of tho stock
ytfnte at South Omaha Monday af
ternoon to "fix" thti election boards
in ttto of tii6 &tatli Omaoi wards.
All tljat was dematidod in return
f < jI.MH mone.y was that the dwno-
"teafc tawi /
not pi v too much attention to the
A jt ; ' . : e of election in the third
v.-artl in Omaha was Monday paid
i.50 from the same source , but the
deal was tipped off , and the pur
chasable individual was notified
that he will be "spotted , "and thai
trouble will begin very prompt ! ?
if he attempts to deliver even 5C
cents worth of goods on the con
tract.
Nothing that may be attempted
will occasion any surprise , after
the printing deal that was worked
at the primaries , the high-handed
action of the machine committee
in overruling the fraud protests ,
the attempt made to 'hire a second
Howell to allow his name to be
used on the ballot , the use of over
§ 35,000 of water works money to
control the result of the election
and the attempts to corrupt elec
tion judges that have already been
made. It can only be surmised
from what has already been at
tempted that the election itself
w ill be made a saturnalia of crook-
e nc-ss if it is possible to make it

J. C. Pettijohn filed a protps :
against the name of Wm. Butlei
being placed on the democratic
ticket for county commissioner
The county clerk , Reece , did noi
notify us of this action and said ,
upon our inquiry Tuesday morn
ing 6f election day , that he thought
we "would find it out. " There
was not much to complain of , con
sidering how the election has gone ,
but it shows the disposition of the
republican managers to be to de
feat the will of the people that the
land office boss might have his OWE
way. It was a dirty trick in Pet-
tijhohn as also in county clerk ,
Keece , in not informing the Editor
who filed the nomination and had
the promise of Reece that he would
have the name placed upon the
ballots and then immediately pro
ceeded to lay the matter before
Boss Pettijolin who filed a protest
and , excepting for the notification
of Wm. Butler , the protest was
kept quiet. Boss Pettijohn rules
with a high hand while holding
his land office club over the people
to compel them to do his bidding
under the penalty of his disfavor.
How long the people will submit
to this high handed rule depends
only upon his disposition and
tenure of office.

WAGE.EARNERS AT THE FAIR
Prominent Men Planning to Help
Workers See the Great Exposition.
Wage earners of America are to see
the World's Fair by tens of thousands
under the auspices of the National Civ
ic Federation. A new bureau of the
Federation has just been established at
St. Louis upon the Yorld's Fair
grounds. Back of the movement are
Grover Cleveland , David R. Francis
Andrew Carnegie , Cornelius N. Bliss
and others. Plans are making to have
a vast number of the wage earners of
the United States see the World's Fair ,
the most glorious spectacle of the age
and the most influential factor In the
education of the American citizen.
The bureau is in charge of Miss Ger
trude Becks , secretary of the Federa
tion's welfare department , of v/hich
Mr. II. EL Vreeland , head of the street
railway system of NCTV York city , is
chairman. The bureau headquarters is
in the east end of the Palace of Trans
portation , on the ground floor. The Ex
position management is in hearty ac
cord with this movement on the part
of the Federation to induce the large
manufacturers and other employers of
labor to provide ways and means for
the wage earners of America to visit
the Exposition. President Francis is
displaying"personal interest in the un
dertaking by affording the Federation
every facility for the consummation of
its efforts , and in this connection he
has directed Theodore Uardce , assist-
c .nt to the secretary , to co-operate with
Miss Beeks and Kalph M. Easley ,
chairman of ths Federation's executive
council , in every possible way.
The Exposition management has also
equipped this bureau with clerical as
sistance and a full supply of World's
Fair literature. The bureau will be
used as headquarters for all wage earn
ers coming to the Exposition under its
auspices. The aim of the Federation is
to make it feasible for the largest pos-
i-ible proportion of wage earners to vie-
it St. Louis and see the World's Fair.
It will see that they are met at the de
pot by responsible persons and con
ducted to suitable lodgings , where they
will be treated fairly.
There will also be furnished , free of
charge , appropriate itineraries indicat
ing the points of interest to be seen
within a lir.it of one week , which is
about the average time each party will
spend here. It will also indicate the
objects of special interest to various
craftsmen In their particular lines , so
that they may devote as much time
ns possible to the objects of peculiar
interest to them. These and many oth
er efforts will be matle to help all wage
earners to enjoy the benefits of this
great Exposition comfortably and at en
expense within their means.
