The Norfolk Journal of the 15th has
the following concerning one who was
I well known to many ot our Platte and
Colfax county readers:
?At rest. Mrs. Elizabeth A, wife of
ri. J4. .Norton, died yesterday morning at
8:40 after a four weeks' illness from gas
tric fever, complicated with catarrhal
trouble and nervous prostration. De
ceased was born near Quebec, Canada,
August 20, 1853, and was therefore in her
forty-third year. She came with her
parents to Nebraska in 1S70, settling in
Colfax county, and was married to Mr.
Norton in 1376. She leaves, besides her
husband, five children, two daughters
and three sons. Her mother and all her
family but two brothers were with, her
in her last moments. The funeral will
take place from the family residence
tomorrow afternoon at 2 o'clock."
Wednesday night last somebody
broke into Gluck's office, on Eleventh
street, getting some stamps belonging' to
Mr. Glnck and Messrs. Newman and
Tomlin, a pipe belonging to Mr. Gluck
and a box of cigars, taking the cigars
but leaving the box. Mr. Gluck desires
us to say to the gentleman who got the
cigars that if he will call at the office he
can have the box. Entrance was made
at a rear window, probably arranged for
easy entrance some time during the day
in the absence of the occupants of the
office. Mr. Gluck thinks the work was
done by home talent, and that they were
probably after Mr. Tomlin's little tin
box in which he carries papers, thin Vino;
it. carried something more valuable.
It is reported that there was some
illegal voting done in Lost Creek town
ship last week, and some one is liable to
suffer for it. There is more than one
man serving- time in the penitentiary for
violating the election laws, and if there
was anything-wrong with the election ot
last week the guilty should be punished.
So says the Platte Center Signal. Lost
Creek township, we reckon, is- not the
only one in which illegal practices were
resorted to, to carry the election. If
one-hundredth part of what has been
reported-ia true, and doubtless it is, then
itf-m high time the fair-minded citizens
of Platte were getting- together in elec-
tfons, not only, but also in conducting-
matters after election. It looks as
though a contest of election might
gather together an array of facts that
would astonish several people and place
majorities where they properly belong.
A telegram from Fullerton, under
date of the 16th says that at the session
of the district court, Judge VsvfrnH
presiding, Andrew Debaey, the con
demned wife murderer, was tried by a
jury of twelve mea sa to his sanity.
After being out thirty minutes they
returned a verdict of insane. Applica
tion will now be made for his adrmesion
to one of the state's asylums. Accord
ing to the statutes, his execution, which
was fixed for Jan. 10, 1396, will now be
stayed until such time as he shall become
sane, aad sa order to that effect will
doubtless bagrrea by taejadge. At the
of the court the ffrfminal
of the state of Nebraska against A.
E. Anderson, raiaau of the defunct
Genoa bank, came ap, in which Ander

If you will now get down your scrap
book containing the tabulated returns
of Platte county's election, we will re-
I sume our study, and be very brief about
it.
You will remember that we found in
our review of last week that the entire
number of voters voting for supreme
judge was 2954; for coroner 2951. Prob
ably these are about the unadulterated
figures. It would seem that there were
some 286 electors who thought it im
portant to vote for sheriff and not vote
for supreme judge; 249 who thought it
important to vote for treasurer and not
for supreme judge; 226 who thought it
important to vote for clerk and not for
supreme judge, and so on down through
the list until you come to coroner, on
which there was virtually no contest,
and which was within 3 as many votes
as for supreme judge cast in the entire
county.
These 200 odd votes (286 for sheriff)
were the ones that were specially worked
some way, or else they all do not rep
resent real ballots one or other, or per
haps both.
We believe there was work done con
trary to the law and In violation of good
government, but how much of it and by
whom, only a contest In the courts
would show effectively.
You will notice, as we have, that none
of the combine ticket was elected except
the two nominated against the new men
on the democratic ticket; In other words,
the defection from the democrats was
only effective to the defeat of the men
nominated to succeed G. W. Phillips as
clerk and W. N. Hensley as judge, and
their contestants were both Germans,
both made a close, personal canvas for
votes, and both have a host of friends In
the county.
The populists were snpposed to be
the more numerous party In the county
and they assumed the brunt of the
battle, as against Spelce and Elliott, and
Incidentally Kavanangh, but these were
old campaigners, knew the ropea and
were strongly entrenched in their own
party lines, and, as it would seem, had a
considerable pull on Individual repub
licans and populists, too.
We have endeavored to determine
from the figures which of the two, re
publicans or populists, adhered most
strictly to the combine ticket, but have
not been able to do so. satisfactorily? we
are free to confess, however, that we be
lieve fewer ot the populists voted for the
democrats; but against certain portions
of their part of the ticket there was
marked opposition in places. Take, for
instance, Walker township. The party
strength as shown by Ewing-45, Hollen
beck 17, Patterson 90, would give 135 for
the combine ticket. Kilian got 10 more
than this; Pohl 2 more; Brindley exactly!
this; Morris 1 less, while Carrier was 47
less; Hale 40 less; Jewell 23 less.
In Lost Creek, the combined vote was
155. Kilian got 38 more than this- Pohl
6 more; Carrig 36 more; Hale 71 less;
Jewell 16 more; Brindlev 35 more; Mor
ris21Iess. Hale had majorities in Creston, Hum
phrey, Granville, Monroe, Woodville and
Walker. There were 20 polling places
and a change of less than 9 in each
would have elected him,
A change of less than 2 in each would
have elected JewelL
A change of less than 3 in each would
have elected Carrig;
If the two parties had stuck solidly
together in Walker, Woodvilie, Lost
Creek, Columbus and Columbus town
ship, the combined ticket would have
been elected throughout.
Tax JbcaxxL believed, with the large
body of republicans, that the combine
movement was the best to make in tr
campaign, and we still so thfnV it has
demonstrated the fact that buaiheas
principles are potent factors in local
elections aad that those who think alike
can. get together if they irilL
It is pninfany evident, however, that
in Platte coaaty the limit of high taxes
aad eaerbitant bills aasaot yet been
reached.
The wiU. will be sweeping one of these
years.

What's the matter with the hog mar

in this neighborhood where cattle have
died from eating smut, etc in corn
stalks.
Philip Eisass, who recently sold the
Blaser place ot SO acres, shipped Ida
household effects and family last Thurs

Rev. Rogers of the Congregational
church at Columbus, escaped the hum
and bustle incident to an election is the
metropolis, by mounting his wheel on
election day, and steering for tie coun
try, where he made professional calls
upon his parishioners.
Pete Luchsinger has caused to be put
up on the southwest quarter of section
9, township 17 north, range 1 east, a new
wind-mill, corn crib and granary com
bined, and Is now finishing up a right
neat new house. There is also a neat
new house being built on the northeast
quarter of section 21, same range ae
above. We have not learned the name
of the owner, and with a good crop In
"96, great improvements will be wrought
in this township, as elsewhere.
Those people in Colorado and western
Nebraska, whose main crop In "93 and "94
was potatoes, by Irrigation, from which
tney realized large sums or. money,
would be very glad this fall to exchange
their product for imperishable farm
products. We remember purchasing
a supply of irrigated potatoes shipped
from the west in "93 for $1 a bushel; we
also paid 85 cent3 a bushel for their
product in "94, while this fall the same
product goes begging at 30 cents.
The welcome raia of Tuesday night
and Wednesday morning of last week,
was very beneficial to the winter grain;
it also served to dampen the dry feed in
the corn stalks, thereby saving the lives
of many cattle that were feeding In the
rich, dry feed, but on examination, we
find it did not reach the subsoil in large
enough quantities to be of any lasting
benefit. But then another good rain
before the ground freezes up, or plenty
of snow during the winter will be suffi
cient for ail practical purposes.

J. S. Freeman received a letter the
other day from John M Stahl of Chicago,
secretary ot The Farmers' National Cob-
gress, which recently held its annual '
session In Atlanta, Georgia. From the
contents of tins circular, it would be
safe to assume that Atlanta will never
again be selected ae a place of meeting
for the congress, if the thousand dele
gates to the last assembly could have -
the deciding of the matter. After pro- -fuse
promises as to what they would do
for the congress, they did nothing in the
way ot help, and did not exercise the -commonest
courtesy in the reception of
their guests. The -upshot of it all is,
that the delegates, after paying their
transportation and personal expenses at . '
Atlanta, are now called 'upon to. go
further down into their private aecaat
books and brma; forth as asefaamsat of
five dollars each to make up what
so profusely promised. There is
paragraph of Mr. Stahl'a excellently well
written document that we must not fail
to reproduce, because of its pungent
taste: "The handful of delegates pres
ent at the last session of the congress
contributed hi addition to their aesess
mentjthe amount necessary to pay the
sergeaat-at-arms, post-mistress, pages,
etc, so kindly appointed for it, without
its knowledge, from Atlanta and Geor
gia.7 We congratulate Mr. Fr
because of his having declined to ;
the appointment aa delegate, aad bee?
leave to tender our sympathy to Gay C
Barnum, and would he be so load aa to
furnish us a copy of the apoach ha i
when he paid that assessment?
