In the amended bcctinn the maximum f <

there is no minimum mentioned. Mr. Li

City Attorney Ponnell explained that the

WELL , IT IS ALMOST ENDED
Last Day but Ono of the Election Oontot
Brings Forth Nothing Now ,
ONLY FOUR WITNESSES WERE EXAMINED
Democrat * Stilt running Tholr I'ollcv "I"
Dcl.tr In Hope of Shutting Out tlio
HrpnltllntiK Testimony Tukrti
n t Yesterday's .Sr.ulun.
It is quite probable that the going down of
the sun this evening will brlnt ? a great deal
of relief to some democrats who started nn
alleged election contest some two weeks ago
It was their intention to show a great deal of
republican corruption In connection with the
legislative ticket ; to unmask tlio sinister in
tent of the city and county authorities in the
matter of appointing the Judges and clerks ,
and to establish bejond peradventure of a
doubt the fact that the extremely biased
and prejudiced Judges and clerks took the
kangaroo ballot by the throat and smote it
hip and thigh , perverting and destroj ing the
usefulness of the secret ballot law and compelling
polling unsuspecting democrats to vote the
republican ticket or none at all In addition
to all of this , several oilier things were to bo
demonstrated , pro\cd and established.
For a couple of days the contestants pro
duced witnesses as fast as they could bo ex
amined , and many weio the stories told of
the ultci lor iullucnco e\ct ted by the Ameri
can Protective association and its bincful
effect on democrats who were confronted
now ami then hi the pink tickets. Most of
these tales weie heaisay stories. Then
there came a change o\or the spirit of the
dream and for the last wcok the democrats
ha\o been laboring with an cio single to so
prolonging their little grist of fiction as to
prevent the republicans from introducing
any evidence whatever.
This was the situation jestcrday morning ,
when the contest opened and the democrats
put forward ono lonesome witness to occupy
the enthe forenoon.
AVIiul Air. .M.itlilcn Suw.
John Gladden , who resides near Cut-Oft
lake , and is an elector in Hast Omaha pre
cinct , was put on the stand to pro\o that
Kianlc Ciawfoid had talked with him in
reference to running bis small stcambo it on
election day for the put pose of conveying
voters to the election booth located in Sw Ift's
icehouse The witness did not carry any
\oteisonthodaj of election , as tbo con
tract with Crawford was not
consummated. Ilo saw two or three
\chicles convoying men to the polls , but
could not sai from where they came.
Mr. Smyth produced n map , showing the
location of Kast Omaha precinct and Cut-Oft
I lake , and consumed an unreisonablc length
of time in luning the witness define the lo
cation of tbo white lead woiks and other
factories , and a number of cottages where
the men employed in the Mist Omaha estab
lishments resided.Tlio witness was not very
well acquainted with the topography of the
neighborhood when presented on paper , and
did not prove aeiy good witness ,
as the contestants wcro desiious of showing
that some of tbo cottages wcro not located
in Hast Omaha precinct , and that those liv
ing there wore not voters in the prccinut ,
and had illegally voted. Mr. Madden was
not acquainted with the people residing in
those cottages and was unable to give any
information desired.
Mr Smyth iibkcd for nil adjournment until
2 o'clock in the afternoon , as no more wit
nesses were present. The adjournment w.ib
taken.
C'oiitrstciftTnke u Turn.
The coutcstecs waited until after 2 o'clock
for the representatives of the contestants
to show up , and they failing to make their
appcaiance , .lames Caiioll was placed ypou
the sta'ud by Mr. Van Duseu for the republi
cans ,
Mr. Canol was a 1udgo of election in the
second district of the Fiist ward of South
Omaha. His politics aio democratic. Ho
thought the board was composed of three
democrats , two independents and two repub
licans The w itne-s did not see any sample
ballots peddled inside the booth excepting
two or tlucc American Piotectivo associa
tion tickets which wcic pinned to the wall ,
but wcro torn down as soon as dis
covered. A number of ballots wcro thrown
out owim ; to the fact that moio than nine
candidates h.id been voted foi on the legis
lative ticket. Most of the legislative tickets
tin own out wciootcd by independents ,
and the balance wee about evenly divided
between the republican and democratic par
ties Mr. Carioll slid that in overYthln bo
far as hi > know the election was fairly and
icgulaily conducted. No soliciting of votes
was done in the booth , nor within one-half a
block of the building , The counting of the
otos was publicly carried on nnd thcio was
no seeiecj about the matter , tlio voters com
ing and going at will.
The attoincib for the contestants came in
while Mr Can oil wab .vut upon the stand ,
and refused to ask the witness any questions ,
not recognizing the right of the conteatecb tc
introduce testimony at this time.
lEi'liru < < ! 'llii'lr Tnlu ot Woo.
Thecontestees gave way to thoconlcstants ,
who were lead ) to proceed with the examin
ation , and called Oust Sucssonun to the stand
to toll of what ho know that would helji
along the faice.
The witness is a democrat and was a clerk
of election at Kast Omaha. The other clerk
was a democrat , and the three judges reuub
licans. A demociatic Judge was appointed ,
and failing to put in an appearance in the
inoining the vacanc.v was filled bj the \oter *

On cross-examination the Inct was Inoiigh
out that the statement of the witness Urn
icsidcnts of Iowa had voled in Kast Dinah
was based upon Ilio piesumption that be
cause Mr SiiCbscmun had not a personal at
qiiaintanco with eaih voter they wcio no
legal volets and did not lesldo in the pic
duet. During tlio day there was not a vote
challenged as lo hl : > right to vote , nlthoug
tlio witness was tonlUlcnt that at leas
twelve or fifteen were not legal icsidcnts n
the piecinet , and ho , knowing nil this at th
time , did not attempt to question their qua

cast their ballots without a protest being ei
