quIet one , though i great deal oC political
work has baen done. Not much interest bas
been tatun In the state tcket , indications
point to a plur.ly for Norval , but the popu-
lists clim that Maxwell wil carry the county ,
'
many democr.lts volng for him , Mahoney's
vote will be small. For district judges
there has been considerable trading done by
the popuiists. The republicans will mosty
vote theIr judicial ticket straight. Holen-
beck's veto will probably be larger than It
was four years ago. Marshal and Patter-
soil , republicans , wi probably be elecied.
On the county ticket there has bem a ,
strong fight over the position of sheriff.
Chapman , time democratic nominee will be
cut badly , and Krealler , republican , stands
a good chance of overcoming the usual llemo-
cratc majoriy In the county. The repub-
lcans wl ! also elect Shiveley clerk of the
dIstrict court. Time republican candidates
for cleric and treasurer have made strong
tights and stand gooJ chances of election .

would defeat General Drake by a small plu-
reilly.

In the way of trouble Ult or four men
went out at St. Cloud , but trains were In

thought necessary to place watchmen on the
new bridge for its . protection. At Devil's
Lake N. D. , It was reported tonight that It
had been decided to strike at mIdnight. As
that was one of the points where thero. was
trouble of a somewhat riotous character In

The polls will open at 8 o'clock this morn-
hag and close at 6 o'cluclt this ennlnK on
what promises to bo time most exciting local
campaIgn In the history of Omaha amid
Douglas county.
Never before have the Issues been so
clearly drawn between good citizens and advocates - !
i \ocatC of honest and economical government i
on one site ali on the other the reprN' nta- !
tires of the utmost corrupt ring at taxeaters :
that ever infested a cornmmmumuity. The Issues
have been fairly joined anti the home owners '
ali busIness men are united aa never bfore
In a determination to take the management
of county and city affairs out of the hands
of tl dervish gang that has hall control for
the last four years and has developed a list
of defaulters and Incompetents In nearly
every deparlment of the governmcnt.
Whlo all classes of private enterprises hnve
felt the knlfo of economy and retrenchment ,
extravagance has marked the management oC
public affairs until the t xpa'er are In open
revolt amid united In their demand for a complete -
plete change of officials before the corrupt
gang cause a confiscation oC property In
taxes to meet the demands of the tax-
eaters.
But the dervish gang Is prepared for a
death slruggle to maintain Its hall on the
public oliices. Wih tha machinery of the
county and city governmentk' ' , time all of the
police force and the open llllport of the
wrter works lanagement and the Infuence
oC several corporatons that have profHl by
the actons of the rllg rule It Is making a
last desperate effort to retain the combine
In power for another two years.
POLICE FORCE IN I'OLiTICS.
W. J. Droatch , In his Insane fght for pout-
Ical preCerment , has dragged the pOlce force
Into the mire of politics and made of every
officer a fixer and worker for the dervish
tcket He commencell his schemc , as soon
as the new board went Into power hi Septemn-
ber. Time heads of the department were
selected from a list of men who had been
charged for violations oC the police rules ,
and each man was chosen on account of his
specIal fitness for doing political dirty worle.
Then eighteen special policemen were selected -
lectcd to do special duly during state fair
week. They were choscn without oxamlna-
ton further than to show that they were
compet'nt and willing to carry ont the polt-
cal Ilro ram oC Uroatch. With this part or
the polce department In line Droatch com-
mence1 upon the Ealoon Interests and has
used policemen's clubs to coerce the saloon
amen , Into line f r his candidacy for mayor.
mcn
Saloon keepers who announced their oppoel-
ton to Droatch have been under polce cc-
plonage , whl those who professed a willingness -
ness to support iroatch have bee extended
) !
special privileges and have hall their , places
opouudayandnightftin1J3Pen . .vlolalor.of..the ' ,
In w Fjnel ! tormerly } ! r\1seIJ\Jon1 \ tle vomln'j
of the "bur'nl dlstrlct"Jl . " bcen'fre'iiItted '
anti the womel assured that tbe.y Would no
longer bo subjected to arrest or flume under
the Droatch regIme. This has resulted In the
levy of n neat campaIgn sum for the Broatch
gang upon the women of the town , and their
butlers alg , piano players and pluggers are shouting -
Ing for Droatch. While openly bidding fOr
the support of the sporting element Uroatch
has been parading at the same time beforetime
the church goers of the city by declaring
that he will rigidly enforce time laws against
the saloons and the sportng ehenlent I elected
have also
corporatIons
. Friendly
' r. corporatons
passed the word along the line that Uroatch
must be elected , and every trick known to !
time class of poltcians to which Broatch he-
longs has been resorted to In order to whip
the men Into iimme.
WATlm WORKS VOTERS COLONIZED
Alonzo D. Hunt , superintendent oC the
American Water Works commipany a leader In
the schemes of council 125 , Is playing a star
part In the plan to elect Iroatch for mayor
anll Albyn Frank clerk oC the district court
The fund set aside by the Unied States
court for the enlargement of time mains of the
water works company In the business part of
time city Is being brazenly used as a campaign
fund In the Interests of the dervish tcket ,
The order to have the work done could have
been secured months ago but the dervish
tecurel
ring did not want the work done . until election ,
time. When the work was finally commenced '
It was discovered that It , was progressIng :
too rapidly and the men were laid off on time '
excuse that pipe and material for the work '
hail been dela'ed. This kind of excuses was
kept up until within the paet few days. Then
unti
the forces were gradual ) " increased. During
part of last week 2SG men were cm-
played on the works. Yesterday more than
100 men were added and any men who wanted
work , or wanted to get a little election mono ) '
for a show of \\ork , were given a place untIl
time forces were so large that the mcn were
In each other's way and there was hardly
standing room In the trenches for the forces
employed. No one pretends that the Interests
of the city or the Inlerests of the water
works company demand such pernicious
activity on the part of Mr. Hunt , but he
I knows the wishes of his dervIsh friends and
has not hesitated to carry them out. I IE
understood that the large force oC men now
employed will be materially reduced after
today as there wi bE no further Ilesslnr
need 01 their services when the election Is
over. The men wi be allowed time to
vote today amid will not be docked for any
time that they may lese whie at the polls
or at work In the Interest of the dervish
combine.
The Frank brothers still have their oil
roOmn In full blast. For the last few days
It has l pall ful attention to time midnight closIng -
Ing order. Fixers of all brands have fillet )
the place day and nlKht and every trick
learned by the federal court sang In Its
years of rule In this city and county has
been used to decoy voters and workers Into
the Frank p3rlor. Elmer Frank Is taking an
active part In the canvass anti Is workIng
as hard to capture the anti-A. P. A. vote as
Is Albyn' to bring his fellow members of thut
order Into active support of the federal court
candidate.
COUNCIL , COMBINE ACTIVE.
The counci combine hes carried out Its
part oC the pro ram to the letter. I has
usqrped the 110wers of the mayor and refused
to approve the appointment oC the clerks and
Judge of election who cannot give time sIgn
of the A. P. A. and the county commissioners
have approved und confrmed the acton of the
council and fled the vacancies on the list hy
appointing omen selected by the dervish ring
All ths has been done with the express purpose -
pose of seeing that the counting of the votes
: Is In the hands or "friends" oC the ring , ant )
'It ' behooves friends of good government to
see that the vote of the people Is fairly
se
counted and the returns properly made to the
Hy and county authorIties.
All day yesterday and untIl a late hour
last night the streets were black with men
bent on politics , and the contest booked for
todjy was the only topic oC conversation. The
dervish contIngent that has infested the
streeticorners for the last two months was
out In full force and spent the tme In car-
wiging conferences on the plans for the
day. There were Pyburn Hunt , Hascal ,
Macieoi ) Savage , Scot , Chaffee . Ir03tch.
George Stn'ktr , Doc Savie , J. \ Furnas : ,
Beech Ilgby I , John Westberg , logbutche
Frank , Pete Schwenk and all the members
of the gang each anxious to have his elfc -
ton day work cut out for him ant ) each scili.
log to resort to any methods neeeuary tu
win a losing flgimt.
SCOTT GANG GIVES IT UP
