8 THE OMAHA DAILY JHSE : FRIDAY , DECEMBER 23 , 1892. IT IS GRADUALLY DYING OUT Content of the Douglas Oonnty Election Losing Its Interest for Everybody. CONTESTED ATTORNEYS ABANDON IT Tutor-tiny' * So lon ItrntiRlit Out Chiefly \Vlmt the WltiiFK r4 Did Not Know of thn IrrrRtilnrlttcs If Any There AVere. Unless the plaintiffs spring something sensational very shortly , the legislative con' test will not < lrn\v u corporal's gunnl. Yes tcnl.'iy only those obliged to bo present at tended the session. The evidence presented wis exceedingly tame , mid witnesses oecit pled the tlmoln tolling principally of what they did not sec. Everybody's eyesight seemed to be Impaired. Dr. 15. TJ. Sliglns told of ono of the gov ernment Inspectors ut South Omaha visiting the Iwoth In the Third precinct In the Third ward and handling a number of ballots that had not been voted. George \V. liny worth of South Omaha saw n number of simple ballots ho thought were notrl'fht. They were referred lo as Amor1 lean Protective association ballots. Ho saw ono tlulcet peddled within 100 feet of the booth In the Second precinct of the Flrsl ward. Gcorgo V , Ford , clerk In the First prcclmr of the First ward , tcstllled that the total vote cast agreed with the tally sheet. It was ascertained from Kll Doud of Soutl Omaha that Mr. Sutton , republican candi date for the legislature , stood within fort' feet of the booth In the First precinct of th < First ward , but ns the plaintiffs did not offei to prove that the offense was a penitential' : one , It failed to count for much. Nothing a nil of Interest was brought out. AttornryH Almiiilitn tin * Cusp. At the afternoon session the contestoes attorneys failed to appear , and after wnttlnt until nearly ! t o'clock the contestants' ut tfimeys placed W. H. Chadwlckon tbo stam niul proceeded with tbo hearing. Mr. Chadwiek was a challenger for the in dependents at the Twelfth district of tin Sixth ward. Ho was in the booth ilurin ) the day , and Jin 1Kb morning saw two mei with olllcial ballots in their hands stamlliif near tbo steve conversing , and called tin attention of the special policeman to l\i \ fact. The ofllcor nsUed ono of the men t leave the booth , ns bo had no authority li there , and tbo fellow < | iiietly left. Vv'hei Mr. Chadwiek inquired for an ofllciiil ballo to prepare so as to vote , ho did not secun ono , ns none were signed , and bo was con ; polled to wait until three judges bad llnlshci preparing the ballots of three voter in the stalls. In the evening Mi Chndwick entered tbo booth against tn protest of the special policeman , and after i few minutes discussion ns to the right of : challenger being present during tbo progrcs of the count , he left the booth. Tbo judge held that no outsider was entitled to U present , although Mr. Clmdwick was no ordered to go and ho left of bis own volition A gentleman with credentials from the tw county committees to hccuro tbo vote a soon as canvassed was permitted to remain The witness stated that two of tbo window wore curtained , ono with newspapers am the other with registration lists. The wil ness stated that Frank Wallace , ono of th judges who served on the board , resided i the Eighth ward on election day , and a ! though ho know of the fact at the time ill not remonstrate. AVlmttlio 1'ollrpinan Did. Thomas UlUon , the special policeman , wa next questioned. Ho closeil the door aftc the polls closed , and was Instructed to do s by the judges , and not to permit any one t enter. The statement of Mr. Uhadwick tha the view through windows was complctel obstructed was untrue. Although partial ! obstructed by papers , the window was nn completely closed. lie did not order Mi Chadwiek to leave tbo booth , and informc that gentleman that if the judges insibte ho must go out. The judges did not Inslruc him to eject Mr. Chadwiek , and that gentli man le-ft of his own will , after an objectio had been raised to bis being there. William Kov.se , a judge of the electio board of tbo Twelfth district , was calle nml testitled to the fact that three of tli members of tbo board wore democrats. Tli witness corroborated tbo story of the quo ; tlon arising as to it being in conlormlty wit the law to permit Mr. Chadwiek to renml In the booth during the canvassing of tli vote , and tlmt the gentleman left of bis ow volition before being ordered to do so. Tl questioning in regard to the manner of cai vassing the vote brought out the fact th ; there was nothing irregular in that , and tl witness took occasion to remark th.it 1 thought the count wu& u perfectly fair ono. J'urrly n IVrsonul Opinion. .T. C. Carroll of South Omaha stated tin ho had witnessed parties peddling tickets : the Third precinct of the Fii.st ward with 100 .feet of tbo polls. Ho was banded : i American Protective association ticki within thirty feet of the booth. During tl day of election he saw nothing which 1 considered Irregular. On tbo followii morning no was at the First district of tl First ward ami witnessed the manuerof ea vnssing the voto. Ono judge road from tl ballot and when finished it was passed in the hands of two of the other Judges. M Carroll considered this mode of tMiivassh the vote very irregular , and was putting in tho-hnnds of ono judge altogether too nun of iv responsibility , as there was no 01 watching to see whether the votes were i-o rcclly announced. Ho was iniac < iuaiuu with the pcilltical faith of the judge who a nounccd the votes from the ballots , and d not Unow of nny ballots that were not co rcctly counted. No more witnesses were present and tl hearing was adjourned until this morning ; 10 o'clock. lrttw Your Own Cmirltiilmi. Mr , .T. O.
