Story of n Itc-il Hot
A citizens victor/ .
That was the roiult yesterday of ono of
the most hotly contested elections ever
known In South Omaha. The light between
the two factions of the democratic party
which had boon wapod wltti continually In
creasing bittcrncH during the campaign cul
minated In ft decided victory forC. 1' . Miller ,
tbo cltlrons candidate ) far mayor.
The vote was thn largest over polled In
this city. No effort or expense was spared
to brine out the partisans of each candidate ,
nnd nny man who controlled n vote was an
object of anxious nnd consldornto attention ,
The fight centered on the mayoralty contest -
test , UJ Johnson was the candidate on the
straight democratic ticket nnd 15. U. Towlo
was sustained by n considerable following of
independent democrats. The light was
inalnlv between these rival factions. Miller's
men worked quietly , btH effectively. Tnuy
said nothing , but kept piling up votes while
the Towlo men exhausted their energies to
boat Johnson , and Johnson's followers ex
pended their ammunition on Towlo.
During the day the adherents of each of
the thrco candidates were snngulno of ulti
mata success. Money was freely shown and
a largo amount will change hands on the re-
bull. One man bet 3100 to & 0 on Johnson
nnd In another case h'jl $ T > 0 oven. Several
foObots.woro made nnd $ .100 In small bois
was posted In an N street business place before -
fore the middle of the afternoon.
Deputy Miorlll * Appear.
The sensation of the day followed the dis
covery that Sheriff Uci.nctl had thlrty-livo
deputies on duty ut thu various polling
places In the city. This was In accordance
with an arrangement niudo n month ngo and
the men ft ore sworn in by Sheriff Hcnnott in
this city Monday night. It was nearly noon
wlicn the fact that the odluors woru hero
was reported. Mayor Stoano was highly
indignant at what ho termed an
insult to liis oflicml position nnd
many of his friends were equally frco in ex
pressing their opinions. The feeling was
conimnnlcatod to the rank nnd file , who
lined the street corners , and for a lime it
Fcemcd that the action of the sheriff would
precipitate n general muss.
About this tlmo un Incident occurred In
the Third ward that brought matters to a
focui. James Austin , ono of thn deputies ,
was on duty in the Third ward. 1'at Uickoy
was electioneering close to the polling
place and as he refused to co outside of the
limit nrcscribcd by law , Deputy Austin led
him away down the street. A number ot
lllckey's friends followed and attempted a
rescue" . Austin succeeded In arresting
Hlclcoy nnd ono of his friends and locking
them up in the city jail. The news was car
ried to Mayor Sloane , who instantly released
the men. The matter occasioned an unuc-
ccuntablo tumult and N street was llllca
with an excited crowd.
At the Third ward the "onng" made no
bones of snyinir that they would kill tlio next
deputy shot iff who came over there. The air
was full of wild run.ors , and Deputy Sheriff
Courtney telephoned to the shcrilt to come
in person. Ho ariivod about 2 o'clock und
met Mayor Sloanc.hon n rather stormy
interview occurred. The mayor ac
cused the sheriff ot Intcrfcrinc
with business which dia not couccui him
nnd added that he was himself capable of
taking care of South Omaha.
Sheriff Dennett bald that ho had appointed
the deputies nt the request ot twenty-live
citizens nnd not as a slight to municipal au
thority. A compromise u as finally effected.
The deputies wcro withdrawn a little from
tl.o polling pUces , but together with the
sheriff remained In the city all night to prc-
servo the pesco and purito of thu ballot box
in cnto their services wcro required.
Homo I'nri'ly i'rrsoiml All'.ilrN.
There wcro few personal encounters con-
Bidoring llio bitterness of tlio contest and the
acrimony displayed among the voters. Tuis
was largely duo to the rigid manner in which
the saloons wcro kept closed , both at the
front und back doors. A man named Uiley
nssnultcd a pedestrian nt 'iwenty-tourth ; and
N streets about 5 o'cIocK , and was promptly
arrested by Captain MuMahon.
About dusk , when iho polls closed and thu
unloons opened , the crowd bOcamo more dis
orderly. Jack Laverty , an Indian Hill
tough , persisted in insulting ladies who
nasscd him on N street and ( Jelled Captain
MoMuhon to prevent him. In live minutes
ho was behind the bars.
As the count began it became evident that
Miller was polling" . ! remarkaolv heavy vote
nnd was n btiru wlnnor. Johnston conceded
Miller's election at 8 o'clock. Towlo did not
loom up as his friends expuctod and wus not
considered in thu race.

The returns from the Fourth ward sbowod
iOJ ! votes cast , of which Johnston rccoivvod
W , Miller 5 : > uua Towlo 30. This gives Mil
ler nearly twice as many votes as ho ox-
pccteu in the Fourth wjrd , where Johnston
resides.
At 10 O'CIOCK it became evident that the
whole citizen's ticket was elected by safe
majorities. It was a result ooyond the most
Eiinguino expectations of Its adherents.
It had been freely conceded dur
ing the day that Tom lloctor , the
democratic candidate for city treasurer ,
would bo elected. When It appeared that
the democratic defeat was complete tbo air
\vas full of recrimination ! ) . Kach opposing
faction ot the divided democracy accused
the other of belling out and the bitterness of
defeat wa" > addodto the accusations of men
of their own party. The exact figures o ould
not bo obtained last nlcbt , but n conscn-a
tivo estimate clvoj the citizens ticket u safe
majority throughout.
At 1 o'clock this morning the citizens com-

SOME TERMS OF THE PROPOSITION

Coiiipiiny Title til ( Irouiiilft
Occupied Olllcln I Opinions.
fn the clnsslc Inngiiaco of tlio struct ,
there's a hen on , and eto mnny dnys n propo
sition will bo flubmlttod to the city council
looking to the cnrly completion of the union
depot at Tenth and Mercy.
U'hllo tbo proposition bos not boon rnado
public , It Is a known fact that railroad nnil
brldco company ofllulnls havu made over
ture to members ot the city council nnd
that these saaio members nro now consider
ing the advisability ot springing the mutter.
Ancient History Ili-Utoil.
The history of the union depot up to the
tlmo when worlt on thoslructuro wus discon
tinued Is well known nnd Is an old story.
City bonds In the sum of $150,000 to nld In
the construction of the Tenth street viaduct
were voted nnd issued , with the distinct un
derstanding that the union depot should bo
commenced and completed within a stated
time. Work impressed upon the two struc
tures nnd on Januar.v 1 , 1SU1 , the viaduct
was completed mid opened to the public.
Not so , however , witu the depot. The
walls were laid up to the second story , nnd
In Unit condition it hns cluco remained.
About that tlmo' certain citizens discovered
that the depot , was not being uullt In con
formity with the original plans nnd designs
submitted to the city council for approval.
Tied Up tin ; Itomls ,
A largo number of the cromlnont citizens
and taxpayers hold n meeting nnd decided to
bring suite enjoin the delivery of the
$1 , " > 0UOO of viaduct bonds. Acting In necord-
mice with the Instructions of the meeting ,
suit was instituted by John D. llowo and
Lirueat Stunt nnd n temporary injunction
was granted by Judge Doanc. When the
case conio on for trial the temporary injunc
tion was made permanent and for n time all
negotiations looking to on adjustment of tbo
difficulty ended.
Some wcolci nL'o 5 committee of citirons
nnd taxpayers took hold of the matter with a
view of malting tornn with the depot coin-
p.inlcs anil the outcome is that if the city
will ngrco to certain things the depot will bo
pushed to completion.
l'r ! > oslUoii ot the Itnlluny C'inipinlcs. :
Sol Prince , chairman of the council com-
mlttoo on viaduct : und railroads , lias consulted
with both S. H. II. Clark of the Union lju-
. cilicnnd G.V. . Holdrego of the Burlington
and these gentlemen have ngrccd to go on
with the depot , nrovldluc the city will rcloaso
thu Union Pacific from its $ -00,000 bond
agreeing to allow nil roads to cross the
brioKO upon fair and cqulinblo terms.
In addition to complnting the depot accord
ing to plans and specifications submitted to
the city council , the depot company proposes
to reloabo its claim upon the fir > 0,000 ot via
duct bonds if the suits nro withdrawn and
Uo cases dismissed. Bos'.dos doing thli ,
thcso gentlemen , on behalf of the respec
tive companies which they represent ,
agree to quit claim to the city of
Omaha any Interest in the disputed territory
lying oetwocn Omaha nnd East Omaha and
recently fenced in by Street Commissioner
Wiuspoar. In other ivcrds , all that they ask
Is to relieve their roads from the terms im
posed by the Urldgo bonds and then thny
ivili comply with all other agreements mady.
How It C.iM Io Done.
Should the city agree to the terms proposed
by Messrs. Clark aim Holdrego iho'noxt
move will bo thointroductiouof an ordinance
repealing tne ordinance compelling the Union
Pacific to maintain certain rates for trans
ferring trains , cars nnrt engines oi'or its bridge
Uio ordinance to take effect when the two
roads release their claim to the disputad
tract between this city and East Omnlia ,
when the Union Depot company completes
the depot and release ; its claim upon the
5150,010 of viaduct bonds.
Wlmt the Coiincllmcn Think.
Several councilmen who wcro seen ycstor-
day said that they bad heard oi thn proposition
and consider it a good thing for thu interests
of Omaha , The bond that the railroad com
pany had given to the city , agreeing to mnko
und maintain bridge rutcb had never
amounted to much , as the railroads had
practicallv made their own rates nnd the
eastern roads had been old Iced to accept
these terms. If the city relouboil the com
panies from these bonds it would slmplv
moan n railroad light and if the Union Pa
cific commenced to boar on too hard it would
have a great deal to do with hastoninc the
Ncbrasna Central bridge project. It would
givu the Union Pacillc and the Burlington
exclusive control of the union depot of Tenth
and Mnrcy streets , but it would
undoubtedly result in Omaha getting
a union depot that would bo
worthy of the name instead ot having slm-
nly a cowshed as at the present timu. This
wus not the only question , the councilmen
said. The city would raako tome money , as
all question aoout the ownership of tho' via
duct bonds would end. The city would cancel
the bonds and the possible debt of $150OUO ,
would bo paid.
Mr. Council's Opinion.
City Attorney Council hud hoard of the
proposition , nnd Ilka the councilmen thought
it had Eomo peed features. The city would
gain an undisputed title to a largo tract , of
land that could be sold or donated to
railroads or manufacturing industries nnd
enterprise ; it would have its bonds back and
by passing the ordinance asked for a fight
would bo brought on. which If carried to tiny
extent by the Union Pacific would result In
the early completion of the Nebraska Cen
tral bridgo.t this uridgo was built and
owned by a competing company It would result -
sult In bringing all of the eastern roads Into
the city and place Omaha beyond the con
trol of any ono railroad.

Tl-is is where wo liottlo nntl Foil more water than was ever bottled by any
Aincricnn Spring Water Company :
And .yet to-day , March lOlh , 1892 , wo have on the books bonn.--fido orders for
more water than wo can bottle in thirty days. If any ono doubts this , wo will pub
lish absolute proof of the truth of our cluini.
This is why the market is floocjed with imitations that are
"superior to Londonderry , " the first natural sparkling lithia
water ever offered to the public.
The Now York Medical Times says editorially :
"Tho Lithia Spring , situated in Londondoriy , Now Hampshire , which has become
the profession has recently doubled its
come so widely and popularly known to ,
carnctty for bottling this excellent mineral water , by enlarging Ha works at
Nashua' .
"Tho writer vibitrdboth tlio spring ami bottle establishment the past pummor ,
and was surpribcd to hear of the quantity of water which was being shipped. The
profession and the public have learned to loolc upon Ihis water as a specific
in many ailments to which the human body is heir , hence the great demand which
is made for it all ever the country. Now Vork City and Chicago being tlio
largest distributing points.
"Thcso waters are almost universally proscribed now in rheumatism of all
kinds.
"It is well known that the skin nnd kidneys must perform their normil func
tions in order to have health , and these lilhia waters are of the greatest borylco
in this direction. It Is to tholr diuretic properties that wo owe so much of their
sarvico in the treatment of affections of the kidneys , bladder and urctha , parti
cularly when caused by calculi , whether of the lithic or uric acid variety.
"The cliniquo has not only demonstrated the solvent value of lithia waters in
thcso greatly dreaded cases , but has shown the power to change the diathesis and
permanently euro the condition upon which it depends. It has also shown that
Lithia in solution as Natu'ro has proviJod , is practically bettor than any the
chomibt has yet mado. "
