luffed poll McKlnley ran ahead In many (
of the state. In Nebraska he was only i
800 votes behind Bryan. The poll shows a
majority for McKlnley In 1'tah, Nevada.
Montann and Kentucky, states tmu were
evidently overlooked by the fusion com
mittee. The ballot on which preference for presl
dc.nt was e!, pressed was arranged so that
the voter would not sign his name. In
tho upper right hand comer was a blank
lino for the name of tho state In which
he resided and then In tho center. In lurgo
letters, were tho names of the republican,
democratic, mld-rr.ad. prohibition and so
clallst cundldutoa for prldont. with 11 box
after each for the voter's cross. The ballot
was not dated and theie was nothing to
show whether those that were returned to
the offlro were sent by subscribers or by
other persons, who bought sample copies
of tho paper and mailed the ballots In
this city. . .
Tho result of the Frelc Prcsso poll Is
being heralded by the populist national
committee as an Indication of the pre
vailing sentiment of the German-Amer-Icann.
From the following table an idea
may be formed as to how the populist com
mittee distributed the Ilryan ballots anions

held last night by the republicans. Hon.
George D. Melklejohn and W. S. Summers,
United States district attorney, spokn on
the national and stato Issues. Tho crowd
was Hlmply Immense. There were 275
torchlights In tho procession, besides vis
iting clubs from West Point and Wake
field, who brought their own torches,
making In all 400 torches In tho procession.
Fully 600 marched without torches. Al
though the streets were very muddy from

ranged for an Immense display of ilreworks.
As the marchers who had no torches mado

WYMORK, Neb.. Nov. 2. (Special.)
Colonel J. It. Dodds of this city, who was
nominated for congress by the mld-roadurs
of this district, has admitted that ho never
was slncero In his acceptance of tho nom
ination and Hint the only reason he! took
tho pluco was to keep some ono who was
slncero out of tho ruce and thus keep tho
mld-roaders from "cutting Stark's throat,"
as , ho termed It In nn Interview today.
There Is a large number of mld-roaders
in this district who are sore on fusion and
it was their Intention to name a candidate
for congress, not that they had any hopes
of electing him, but simply to cast their
votes and thus maintain their party or
ganization. When Colonel Dodds learned
of this ho advocated It as a good Idea
through the columns of Ills paper and took
such an Interest In this party, the prin
ciples of which he had always loved, that
tho mld-roaders thought he was sincere
In his desire to help them and they agreed
upon him as tholr stnudard-bearer.
Colonel Dodds announced tils Intention
of withdrawing from tho ticket when It
was too late for tho mld-roaders to name
another cnndldato and In thli manner It
was expected to forco the true populists
to vote for Stark. Dodds admits that the
whole proceeding was a trick on his part
and he docs not deny that ho received a
rcspcctnblo-Blzed roll from Mr. Stark for
the manner In which ho betrayed the mld
roaders. Tho people who wert thus fooled
by Colonel Dodds Bre naturally Indignant
and many of them will work and voto for
John D. Pope, the republican candidate,
rathor than "deliver the goods" Colonel
Dodds sold.

nnOAR. Neb., Nov. 2. (Special.) The
republican campaign In Edgar wound up
last night in a blazo of glory with tho
laBt meeting before election. The speaker
billed for the evening was E. M. Bartlett
of Omaha nnd he entertained the crowd
for two hours with ono of tho most logical
nrgumonts In favor of the policy of the
present administration that was ever lis
tened to and to those who wero open to
conviction it must have proved convincing.
There whb but one spenker down on the
bill, but Frank Kelley of Lincoln, who had
been billed for 'Lawrence, was unable to
find a place to speak thero, owing to the
fact that the (unionists had rented tho
only hall In town, and the popocratle
speaker being afraid to divide the, tlmo
with Mr. Kelley, he rame to Edgar and nt
tho close of Mr. Bartlett's speech ho madn
a rousing address of nearly an hour ami a
half, and the fact that tho cruwd re
mained till he closed Is good proof that his
talk pleased tho people. Ho devoted him
self almost exclusively to Bryan's prophe
cies of four years ugo and ho made Billy's
predictions look ridiculous, as they are to
all thinking men. Tho meeting was the
biggest kind of a success and the repub
licans await with confidence the result of
the voting on next Tuesda).

with hlru. At 8 o'clock he arrived nt the
opera house, which was so crowded that It
was hard work to get through to the
stage. Mr. Allison was Introduced hy
Chairman Lehr and spoke for nearly two
and one-half hours. He paid a very high
compliment to ex-Uoveruot Crounse. He
paid but tittle attention to the trusts,
simply c'tlng the records as to what Mr,
Ilryan and the democratic party had ever
done about them, when they had the op
portunity, then going Into the details nf the
Spanish war, citing many facts that were
now to most of the people about It, taking
up militarism and showing so plainly that
no man could fall to see It that under our
constitution such n condition cannot pos
sibly exist. Anally closing with tlm sub
ject of imperialism. This ends tho cam

HOW A PRETTY SOCIETY GIRL
ESCAPED DREAD CONSUMPTION
Pertina Used in Time Saved Her Life.
All's Well That Ends Weill
Jt Is the same old story of exposure to
cold. The cctd passing down the bron
chial tubes to the lungs, the dercloptng
of a sVttled cold on the lungs, cottghtng,
expectoration. This Is a abort road to
consumption. Thousands of people have
traveled IL Thousands mure will travel
It and the coming winter will develop an
untold multitude of new rases.
In the rase of Helen Murphy, the end
ing was a hnppy one. She started on the
road to consumption after catching cold
at n reception. Instead of waiting unttt
she became incurable, Pcruna was resorted
to and her life was saved.
It Is a pity that eery one else In this
wide land could Hot know of this very
effects e remedy tn such caBes. The nows
Is spreading fast but a great many people
have not jet heard that Pcruna Is a sure
cure In these cases,
Pcruna cures acute catarrh and chronic ca
tarrh, catarrh of tho head nnd catarrh of
the lungs, catarrh of the throat and ca
tarrh of the stomach. Wherever catarrh
may have located Itself, whether In the
digestive organs, kidneys or pelvic organs,
Peruna Is sure to eradicate the disease
promptly.
Another case where consumption was
cheated of Its prey occurred In tho stato
of Iowa. The report of the case created
considerable attention n' the tlmo and was
furnished us unsolicited by Mr. Henrlck
son. In a letter to Dr. Hartman he sets
forth some Interesting details of his rescue
from consumption. He made use of the fol
lowing language.
"I havo been for years a ronstnnt suf
ferer from chronic catarrh of the head nnd
throat, which dimity worked down Into the
nlr passages. In the spring of 'PS I took n
severe rold and coughed all summer, t
though I had consumption. Then I hail a bail
nttaek of la grippe. After taking a course
of Peninn I feel cured nf all these troubles.
Whenever any of our children get sick
we give them Pcruna. and it never falls to
euro them. 1 most heartily testify to the
vnlun of Peruna In cases of catarrh unit la
grippe. I hope this may be the means of
others suffering ns I did to take Peruna
and be cured. We would not bo without It
In tho house."
Henry Henrlckson.
Generally the first cold of tho scoson Is
caught In November. With some people this
lasts nil winter nnd lays the foundation of
chronic catarrh. In the beginning a few
doses of Peruna Is sufllelent to make a per
manent cure.

" 1 had falling, inflammation and
ulceration of the womb; backache,
bearing-down pains; was so weak
and nervous that I could not do my
own work; had sick hendaehe, no
appetite, nuinb spells, hands and feet
cold all the time. I had good doctors,

Through the advice of a lady friend
1 began the use of Lydla I), l'inkham's
Vegetable Compound, and after taking
one bottle 1 felt greatly relieved, and
by the time I had used severnl bottles
was completely cured, so that I could
do my work again. I am now passing

your Compound. It helps me wonder
