A slight earthquake shock at Santa
..Madonna, Spain, Tuesday of last week.
.Kb damage.
. A mas claims to hare invented an au
1 tomatic machine by which 1,000 words a
minute cab be sent by wire.
Thursday morning about 5 o'clock
. 'there were three distinct shocks of
Earthquake at Beatrice, basting about
' 'twenty seconds. At Pawnee City the
-shock lasted about a minute. At Table
' . Bock, the peculiar tremor of the earth-
quake was plainly discernible. At Te
- curnseh the shock was sufficient to
.-' awaken people and rattle dishes. At
Falls City it was a reminder of eighteen
years ago. At Omaha, also, but not so
.' severe as to do more than shake pictures
' on the walls, set chandaliers to vibrat
'. ing, jarred windows, etc. At Chicago,

' It seems that the shock was felt all over

Ex-Senatob George F. Edmunds,' who
has made quite a study of the railroad
question, says that England has been all
through the railroad questions that have
been and are now agitating .the people
' of this country, and that what is now
- especially needed here is more perfect
methods than we have of enforcing the
- law. He says the keynote of the rail
road situation today is found in the
parental attitude of the railroads; they
' assume that they are guardians of the
commercial interests of the country;
they divide up the United States as the
European powers divide Poland; they
dictate'with more arrogance than a Bus-
. stan emperor; they say to me: "You
' -.811811 not build stores here;" they say to
you: "Yon may carry on a commercial
- business at this point;" they dictate
where shops shall be built; they say in
what localities business shall be done.
The Tariff.
Referring to the Wilson-Gorman tar
iff, the New York Sun (Democratic),
says:
As a straightout repudiation of the
platform and promiso of the democratic
party which made it, it should never
have been passed. As a miserable fail
ure to provide the national government
with the revenues necessary to keep it
- from bankruptcy and its attendant
calamities the tariff alteration should
begin the moment the next speaker of
the house appoints a committee on ways
and means.
If Mr. Cleveland were a president of
. broad and patriotic comprehensions, a
chief magistrate of the whole people, as
mugwump cant has it, and not a hide
bound and hopeless partisan of the
Cleveland party only, he would tomor
row issue a call for congress to begin
- the preparation of a tariff that should
fill up the present deficiency, and, in the
language of the democratic national
platform, yield money "sufficient to
meet the expenses of the government."
The idea that the Wilson-Gorman
tariff can stand is political and com
mercial folly of tho wildest description.

Omaha, Nov. 6. T. T. Norral has
captured the supreme judgeship over
8amael Maxwell, the Populist candi-
. late, by a plurality ranging from 5,000
' to 10,000, estimating from the reported
, ' count of per cent of the vote of the
state, exclusive of Douglas county, and
there conceding himaplurality of 1,000.
Although the returns received, by cora-
parison.with the Harrison-Holcomb
judgeship contest of two years ago,
would indicate a much larger plurality
for the Republican candidate, the fact
that the early returns are from the
towns and cities explains this in a large
measure. ;
. Local contests dominated theelectaons
throughout the state, in many cases the
state ticket being almost lost to sight,
aad to this fact k due the belated state
raturas. Gouty tickets were counted
. first. Iadicatioas are that the vote
yetted is coaaidcTably lighter than that
of last year, although the weather was
favorable.
O. H. Morrill and H. L. Goold have
. apparently been elected regents of the
'State-university by a slightly larger
plurality -than the head of the ticket. .
.' 'In general it may be' stated that the
returns to. date indicate a largely in-
creased Republican vote in the city of
Lincoln over that of two years ago,
which is about offset by a slightly in-
' creased Populist vote in the country dis
tricts. '
W.J. Snatch was elected mayor of
.Omaha by about 1,000 majority. The
Oitizen-Democrartc-Populist ticket was
almost wholly defeated by the straight
Republican ticket. Cunningham R.

about 83,000 less than last year. Most
of these losses are Democrats. The
Populists make some gains, mostly from
the Democrats. The Prohibitionists
are not polling as large a vote as they
did two years ago. On the legislature
few returns have been received. The
Republicans estimate the house 74 Re
publicans and 26 Democrats, and the
senate 42 Republicans and eight Demo
crats. This gives Senator Allison 116
out of 150 votes on joint ballot next

Chilly Far Democrats la IlUaela.
Chicago, Nov. 6. The Republicans
carried the election by pluralities of
about 30,000 on the entire ticket. Ball
(Rep.) forjudge of the superior court
has defeated Morrison, his Democratio
competitor, by 30,000. The Republicans
elected five of the trustees for the $30,-

Election of chief justice, six district

Kansas City, Nov. 6. Returns from
Kansas indicate that the Republicans
have carried a majority of the county
tickets in their entirety by majorities of
from '.00 to 800, and that David Martin
(Rep.), candidate for chief justice of
the supreme court, is re-elected by a
safe plurality. In many instances Mar
tin ran ahead of his ticket. Charles K.
Holliday, Jr., (Dem.), however, made a
better showing than was generally ex
pected for him. Republicans carry
Wyandotte, Butler, Cherokee, Mont
gomery, Reno and Johnston counties,
but as a rule losses were shown over
last year. The Populists carry Clay
county and the fnsionists Lyons and
Sedgewick counties. Atchison and
Shawnee counties are mixed.
Martin's majority over Holliday for
chief justice will probably reach 10,000,
a decided record on the resubmission
question, which the latter candidate
represented. Holliday also stood for
free silver. It is estimated that 250,000
rotes were polled. Chairman Breiden
thai of the Populist state central com
mittee asserts that his party held its
own,and in fact elected about 30 county
officers now held by. Republicans. He
claims further that Populist judges were
elected in the Sixth, Eighth and Eight
eenth districts and that the result in
the Seventh, Ninth and .Twentieth dis
tricts are in doubt. The others are ad
mittedly Republican.' The Democratic
and Republican chairman have not
made any statements publicly, but it is
generally conceded that the Democrats
got practically no' office and that the
Republicans with few exceptions car
ried everything. The fusion ticket de
tracted to some extent from the Repub
lican support, and the A. P. A contin
gent aided the Republicans.

Washington-, Nov. 6. Owing to the

existed at the capital. Particularly was
this 'the case with reference to New

and the returns from these states were
awaited with the greatest interest.
Great crowds'gathered in front of the
newspaper offices and remained until the

storm center. Others more fortunate
visited various social and political clubs,

made for obtaining the latest informa

Electa governor, attorney general and

BALTaeoax,Nov. 6. There are enough
returns to indicate that there has been a
landslide in Maryland and that the
Democratic ticket is snowed under by

that the Republi

Gibson. Howard county, the home of
Senator Gibson, has apparently reversed
its normal majority of 500 and gives
Lowndes (Rep.) for governor a majority
1 f at least that number of votes. Baltd
tiore city goes for the Republican ticket
by a majority ranging from 6,000 to
8,00)) and both branches of the city
council will probably be Republican for
the first time in many years. In fact
there is not a leg xor the Democratio
party to stand on, though this has long
been considered one cf the safest Dem
ocratic statertn the Union. Telegrams
from the chairmen of county commit
tees indicate that Washington county
has gone for Lowndes by 1,200 votes, a
Republican gain of 900. ThatCarlin
county will give him a majority of 50,
Republican gain of more than 500. That
Alleghany county, the home of the Re
publican candidate, gives him 1,500, a
Republican gaiu of 650. Thus it is in
all parts of the state and not even the
most sanguine Democrats claim to have
carried anything worth carrying.
The Herald (Independent) concedes
Lowndes' election and says his major
ity in the state may reach 20,000. It
also concedes the election of a Republi
can legislature, which insures a Repub
lican successor to United States Sena
tor Gibson and says that the entire Re
publican ticket is elected by good ma
jorities. VIRGINIA.
Elects half of the members of the state
senate and entire house of delegates.
Principal issue was the passage of a new
election law and the repeal of the present
Walton law. Continuation of the Walton
law practically gives the Democrats con
trol of the election machinery.
Richmond, Va., Nov. 6. The election
closed one of the most apathetic cam
paigns kown in Virginia for many years.
The election was for half the senate, 20,
and the whole membership of the house
of delegates, 100. In many counties the
Republicans combined with the Popu
lists and other anti-Democrat elements
and made the issue en a cry of fairer
elections. In many of the black belt
counties, notably in the section of Nor
folk, the negroes seem to have sup
ported the Democratio candidate. The
detailed returns, so far as received, will
continue 84 Democrats and six anti
Democrats and the house about 80 Dem
ocrats and 20 anti-Democrats.
PENNSYLVANIA.
An off year In Pennsylvania elections,
the only state officers elected being treas
urer and seven judges of superior court.
An apathetic campaign and a more quiet
election.
' Philadelphia, Nov. 6. Returns re
ceived indicate that Benjamin J. Hay
wood(Rep.)has been elected state treas
urer by about 150,000 plurality, a Re
publican gain over 1893, which was also
an off year, of about 15,000. This state
also elects seven judges of the new su
perior court. Of these six Republicans
nominated are elected. The seventh
man on the ticket is in doubt. In this
city the Republican ticket is elected by
an overwhelming majority. Complete
returns from 18 of 87 wards show Re
publican pluralities of 34,365. If this
ratio is kept up the plurality in this city
will be fully 60,000.

Jackson, Miss., Nov. 6. From re

50,000. The Populists did not receive
more than 15 per cent of the total vote
cast. In this city 349 votes were polled,
being less than half the registered votes.
. Burkett, the Populist candidate for gov
ernor, got 14 of this number and the re
mainder went to McLaurin, the Demo

closed was on free silver as against
the gold standard, and the result is a
complete victory for the sflverites.

The governor is elected by popular vote.
A plurality wins. Seven members of the

the election in New Jersey indicates a

Republican candidate for governor, is
elected by a surprisingly large plurality,
probably by about 15,000. live of the

Columbus, O., Nov. 6. N. M. Kurts
of the Republican committee states the
Republicans have surely elected 77
members out of 112 members of the
house of representatives and 27 out of
87 members of the senate, a majority of
47 on joint ballot for senator.
Some of the Democratic managers say
that the result is due to the same cause
as in 1893 and 1894 opposision to Presi
dent Cleveland's administration and the
last congress. As both parties had the
same fntni plank, the silverquestion
was not an issue in the' campaign. The
tariff was the only national issue be
tween the parties. The Populists cast
about 40,000 votes, the Prohibitionists
about 20,000 and the Socialists about
osr. j. a. roRA
8,000. Neither the third, fourth or fifth
parties nor the A. P. A. affected the re
sult. The contest was between the Re
publicans and Democrats onthetarifl
and state issues.

chairman of the Democratic state com
aaittee, has given out the following
"W6eoaede the state to the Republic

60,000 for Coxey for governor beat us
The hard times were too fresh in the
minds of the people to be forgotten and
this tended to onr defeat. There ia
nothing left us on which to begin the
campaign of 1896."
The Republican state committee chum
111,000 plurality and 114 members of
the legislature to 85 Democrats.
The Republican majority in the next
legislature as shown by the returns in
sures the retirement of Senator Brice
(Dem.), and the succession of a Repub
lican. It appears to be settled that ex
Qovernor Foraker will be the choice of
the legislature as the state convention
placed his name in the platform as the
senatorial candidate. .

halge and the entire Republican ticket
is indorsed by a plurality practically the
same as that of 1894. The legislative
department of the government is also
solidly Republican, 83 of the 40 senators
elected being of that political bias.
There is a slight gain for the Demo
cratic party, the last senate having
stood 86 Republicans and four Demo
crats. In the house of representatives
the Republicans have practically the
same majority as last year. The gover
nor's council will contain but one Dem
ocrat as an advisor in the executive
chamber. In brief, the result is a clean
sweep for the Republican party in the
state, it having suffered in no way from
the supposed defection caused by the
A. P. A. movement.
The hopes of the friends of female
suffrage have been buried beneath an
avalanche of ballots. Hardly a town
voted a majority in favor of the propo
sition to grant suffrage to women in
municipal affairs. A fair estimate
would be three to one against female
suffrage.

This is said to be the real name of the
man at Denver the past few weeks
whose deeds have given him so much
notoriety. He is of German origin, and
does not claim that the peculiar powers
he seems to possess are divine.
He is a man about six feet tall and
heavily built; possessed of wonderful
powers of endurance, for he journeyed
across the terrible Mojave desert in
southeastern California, bare headed
and without food for forty days, the
time consumed in making the trip over
the desert. He is a thoroughly humble
and devout man with a good face and no
pretensions whatever. Ho preaches no
sermons, and is as sincere and innocent
as a child.
He is treated with the utmost consid
eration by the press aad public, who
respect him for his simplicity of life,
sincerity of purpose and meekness of
manner.
He wears no hat, is dressed in a
neglige shirt and ordinary trousers, and
is apparently an intelligent man, bnt
simple as a child and enjoying the con
fidence of all who havo seen him perform
wonderful cures.
Marshal Williams of Schuyler visited
Schatter (as he is generally called), and
claims that his eye sight was wonder
fully strengthened.
Frank B. Sellemire of Lincoln, who
had been troubled for years with a con
tinual pain in one of his hips, says that
he and his wifo reached Denver at 7:20
in the morning; that when they drove
to the place where Schlader stands and
receives his patients, they found the
streets filled with people. He waited
for seven hours and then left. The next
day ho arrived in time, so that he was
one of the five who occupied carriages
and who were treated. Schlader en
tered the carriage, grasped Seelemire's
hands, and held them firmly. His lips
moved as if in silent supplication, but
Seelemire felt no change in the pain
that had racked his body for years.
After a few minutes Schlader dropped
his hands with the remark: 'You will be
better presently,' and stepped out of the
carriage. Mr. S. returned to his hotel,
felt the pain throughout the day, but
the next morning when he arose, he
realized immediately that it was gone.
Since then he has only felt slight
twinges on two different occasions.
G. H. Clark of Lincoln reports a sen
sation like the shock of an electric bat
tery, when Schlader grasped hands; the
same with his daughter, but no visible
result as yet. Mr. Clark says he went
'to Denver without much faith in the
powers of Schlader bnt he found per
sons there who had been cured instantly.
On Wednesday evening last Henry
Boettcher, section-boss at Gardner, ac
companied by his brother August Boett
cher of this city, went to Denver to see
the healer. Henry has been very se
verely afflicted with rheumatism in the
right leg for about six weeks past, and
was so fearfully crippled that he could
not walk. We shall try to keep our
readers posted on whatever facts may
develop.
Monday noon we interviewed Henry
Boettcher's brothers here (August hav
ing been at Denver and returned Satur
day), and the substance of what they
say is this: We were shown two differ
ent photographs of Schlader, f nil beard,
long hair, and conforming to the de
scription given above. At the time, 6
o'clock in the morning, when Mr. Boett
cher registered, there were a hundred
patients present. Returning at 1030,
there were probably five hundred pa
tients in waiting, all classes and condi
tions of people, no policemen, and no
disturbance. At 12 o'clock Schlader
entered the carriage to treat Henry
Boettcher; held his left hand in his two
hands for about five minutes, and left
him for the next patient.
When August left his brother at
Gardner Saturday night, he walked
with the aid of a cane, and without pain.
At Denver, he talked with a man who
had been afflicted with rheumatism six
teen years and was presently well after
treatment by SchMder. He realties

the last in extreme cases, meetly five to
ten minutes. Usually he does not
speak, except when a question hi asked
as "Will I get well?" the reply was
"Havefaith, and the Father will help
yoa.'
There ia no assurance that cares will
be effected suddenly, bat ueaally relief
aomea immediately, permanent cares
following after days, weeks and even
months.
A girl who had been cured of eye
troubles acts as Schlader's clerk, and he
receives letters enough daily to fill an
ordinary wagon box.

People in this neighborhood seem to
be more interested in irrigation than
politics, but they don't want the Babcock
scheme. They want nothing to do with
parties that want a contract binding on
the farmers, but not at all on themselves,
and Lawrence's idea is a good one to
have the farmers build and run their
ditch, then they will get tho benefit, and
not the capitalists. When the farmers
reap any benefit then tho towns and
cities are bound to grow, for. they are in
a great measure depoudvnt on the far

Fremont Herald: Tho Xews-Remib
lie of Omaha will hereafter bo conducted
by an incorporated company. Tho
amount of the stock of the concern is
placed at $20,000. Ross Hammond's
name does not appear among the in
corporators, and wo presume that ho
has no interest in tho affair and will not
assume the business management. It
has been reported that Hammond Bros,
have had a longing to get into business
in Omaha, and that they offered to sub
scribe stock for the benefit of the News
Republic, when it came near to going to
the wall a week or so ago.
Fremont Tribune: Two thousand
dollars a year salary ought to satisfy
most people these timcB. It does not
satisfy Treasurer Nelson, however, for
he is not turning over to the county
31,500 a year paid as interest on county
deposits.
