LOCAL CAMPAIGN ENDS (Continued from First Pac to be found br thoi ho are looking for them. The proserin inn of persons ho voted Il legally at that primary and the prosecu tion of those better known persona who as sisted at the Illegal registration and voting has not progressed aa It should becauae of the attitude of County Attorney Shields. At the time the frauds were at first dis covered warrants were asked for the ar rest of John O. Kuhn, T. P. Kennsrd anl W. S. Esancy. The county attorney re fused to file In any of the cases. Finally after much argument and persuasion by democrata I. J. Dunn consented to cause a warrant to be Issued against F.aanry, but refused to have warranta Issued against the other partiea lo that fraud. It waa given out the; In case warrants were secured by private parties before a Justice of the peace that the county attorney would dlsmlsa the raaea and for thnt reason the matter haa been dragging. A few days ago the county attorney was supplied with the names ot a number of reaidenta of Iowa who there la every reason to believe voted at the republican primaries under assumed names. He was told that If the parties were arrested evidence would be forthcoming to convict and the nature of thai, evidence given to him. He waa asked to secure requisitions for these men, but so far nothing haa been done. y-.y produoed. according to the tially organ of Mr. Mercer, one X. F. Thompson, who aid-that he was a realdent of :he Eighth vard..; This man waa made to represent -rn W. F. Thompson who voted upon an -rfldavlt In the Eighth ward, giving an ad- :ress at which he la unknown, certified lo 'y Jamea Allan and Jacob Klein, the lal-t-er saying that he did not know the .man t all. By the same-method of Juggllug n Robert Neil wa made to stand for 'iobert Neele, who also voted on affidavit ti the Eighth ward, and a few days later as not known by Jacob Klein, who rer . Iflei to-the truth of hla statement aa to Jia. qualifications as voter. Aa a matter of fact the names of all -if the partiea who voted upon affidavit at jat primary were placed In the handa of 'astofflr letter carriers, and wheii they era returned "not found" It waa In some instances accepted aa final aa to the men tot being there, although In some cases turfher investigation was made. This waa rue of George F. Woolev, r.'io la on the i-eeorda aa having voted at S0S3 Maeain ftreet. Mr. Wooley Uvea at 3023 Maroy. rtreet, but there la no evidence that he oled from that - addreaa. while there la evidence that a man giving the Kama name i Id vote from 2023 Mason street. While Mr. Ourley waa -.living his won derful dlscuiery of the " men who were inentioaad aa voters of doubtful quallflca :iona there were many in the audience who expected to see the form of W. 8. Esancy arise at the call of the magician, but Mr. Ourley made no attempt to ex plain the absence of the repeater, for whom a warrant la In the hands of th . officers and who waa certified to ty two of ' the ardent Mercer champions of the Fourth ward aa being a legal resident at 1613 Howard street, when .no oue at that ad dress had ever heard of him. Mr. Ourley also failed to explain bow C. J. Spain, a .resident of the Eighth ward, was lad Into violating the- plain letter of the law by the Mercer worker by being given an affi davit . showing that be waa a realdent of the 8lth ward when he lived in another ;art of town. The explanation of Mr. Ourley, by com bining a small number of tboae who bad :lvd at the residence from which they voted but since removed with the Intro duction of persona bearing aamea similar to those on the poll books waa an attempt to conceal from the public tb fart tbat.be failed to produce the larger number whoae names were printed In The Be and who have ao far failed to locate themaelvea, or The Sense of responsibility so essential in 'developing a young man's con fidence in himself, is most easily created by: the possession of a life insurance policy in the greatest company in the world.

He baa also promised places In the depart ments to more people than can possibly lie appointed even If he should succeed In get ting his Minnesota friends to resign in a body and restore to, Nebraska the Joba formerly hld by Nebraska veterans. With the appointment of D. E. ThompEon to the pr aition of minister to Brazil, George Helm rod as consul at Samoa, with John Jenkins at Salvador. Church Howe at Sheffield and a number of others at various polnta In Europe, Nebranka'a quota In the consular service la filled while the federal offices have a large number of representatives from the atate, none of whom show any desire to resign, and the presidents well known pendant for civil aervlce reform does not augur well for their removal simply to give another man a Job to fulfill promises of Me.ccr. This la accentuated when It Is known that of all the men from Nebraska In the consular service not one waa appointed as the result of any effort on the part of Mercer, and it would be difficult for biro to ehow the name of a single Nebraskan who haa secured a gov ernment, position other than that, of post master or minor department clerk, a the result of his work. - Speaking for the stale managers at fu sion headquarter. B. R. B. Weber, chair man of the populist slate central commit tee, said: "I don't think (here is any doubt about Thompson's election. ' We haven't enough full polls of counties to bine an estimate on, but I would say that, the plurality will not be less than 10,000. I think we have a good show to elect the entire stable fusion ticket and five con gressmen, the sixth and possible loser be ing Hanks, who will at least make a very good showing. We believe we will carry tbls district, but it is very hard to give figures. We are satisfied with the outlook here and all over the atate. Wo are sat-. Isfled. too. with the campaign we have made, considering all - the clrcumatancea. We expect Thompson to receive many re publican votes In cities and towns, and if we succeed In getting the fusion vote from the fields and threshing machines wo will elect Thompson by from 3.00ft to 10,000." t . , , AFFAIRS AT SOUTH OMAHA Carnegie's Secretary Aiki About the Librsry't Maintenance.

Fatalities lo Miners In Klanteen atate and Territories. v An official report made to the United President Bruce McCulloch of the South Omaha library board la In receipt of a let ter from Jamea Bertram, private secre tary to Andrew Carnegie. In relation to the proposed library building here. The let ter waa written at. Skibo castle. Scotland, and acknowledges the receipt of the plans and elevation of the building. Secretary Bertram calls the attention of Mr. Mc Culloch to the fart that the city has ful filled only one portion of the conditions laid down by Mr. Carnegie. What Mr. Carnegie now want la some evidence that a sufficient sum of money will be provldad each year for the maintenance of the li brary. It is understood that with a dona tion of $50,000 for a building the city must agree to provide not lesa than $5,000 each year for maintenance. It will be remem bered that at the election In November, 1901, the question of voting bonds for a library site came up and the proposition carried. When the bonds were placed on the market a defect In the history was found and bond dealers declined to pur chase. In order that there might be no further delay the city council used the money appropriated for maintenance for this J-ear to purchaae the site, as there would be no necessity for a library malnte ranee fund before the building was erected. The council now will be asked to pass a resolution or an ordinance providing for an annual appropriation of $5,000 for the maintenance of tbe library. Aa soon as this Is done certified copies of the pro ceedings will be sent to Mr. Bertram's ad dress, No. 2 East Ninety-first street, New York City. Members of the library board hope that the city council will arrange this matter at an early date, ao that the contract for the structure may be let as soon aa pos sible. A number of bids are In the hands of the secretary of the board and It is ex pected that -these will be opened some day this week. From the tone of Mr. Bertram's letter It Is Inferred that as soon as the conditions are compiled with the sum of $50,000 will Ic placed at the disposal of the board, f ount Ina; the IlaHota. It Is understood that a request will be J made of tho Judges and clerks of election to count the votes for governor, congress man and county attorney Aral. This will leave the balance of the ticket to come later. Those who are Interested asaert that by counting In this way the count will not. be delayed to any extent and the peo ple in this eection will learn at any early hour the etandlng of the candidates lu South Omaha. This plan frequently has been adopted and hna worked well. In a few instances last year the ballots were counted straight, down and the counting required a great J al of time. It ia thought that there will be no difficulty In persuad ing I he Judge and clerks lo consent to counting ballots as ha been suggested. Troop F.lerts Officers Tonlavht. An Important meeting of the South Omaha cavalry troop will be held at the ermory tonight. It is expected that a suc cessor to Captain Holland will be chosen. Several non-commissioned officers also wilt be elected. - A notice, has been seat to evary member and an effort will be made to secure a full attendance. f'ltr Council Tonlabt. The monthly meeting of the city council Is on for tonight. There mi some talk a few days' ago of adjourning on account of the meeting falling on the date Just before election. Some of the mombera said yes terday that the chances are that the session fire scriptural quotations at opponen's in tbe course of debate. In IMP, during the gold fever, Mr. Tettus traveled from Selma, Ala., his native town, to California on horseback, and during that long ride hla chief pastime was reading bis Bible. In this way he was almost able to learn the contents of the good book br heart. The story of how this veteran southerner of the "old school came to be a United States senator la worth retelliug: Jamea 8. Pugh was senator from Alabama and had been elected largely through the efforts of Pettus. who was practicing law In Selma. as he had been for the last fifty 1 years, except during the time he served as I an officer In the confederate army. 1 A vacancy occurred in one of the federal J judgeships of the state, and Mr. Pettus de cided that he would like to muud out his I legal career by serving on the United States ! bench. He packed up bia satchel and mad a J trip to Washington for the purpose of en- I listing Pugh'a support for the appointment. The train on which Mr. Pettus traveled arrived In Washington about 5 o'clock In the morning. It was too late to go to bed and too early to do anything else but go and see Fugh. 80 the Alabama lawyer clambered Into a tab and drove to the senator's house. He rang the bell loudly. A colored woman answered after a lapse ot time long enough to indicate that the ser vant had been called from her bed. Stick ing her head through the door she asked what waa wanted. "I want to aee Pugh," answered Fettus. "He'a in bed." "That's all right. I'll go to his room." And he went. "Hey. thrre, Pugh. wake up," said Tet tus when he had discovered the slumbering statesman. Pugh awoke, for Pettus' voice is in pro portion to his frame. "There'a a vacant judgrahlp down In our state, and I want It," said Pettus, while Pugh was rubbing his eyes. "Pettus, you are too old." raid Pugh, as be rolled over In bed. "Pugh. you are a fool," retorted Pettus, "and if I am too old to be a judge, I am not too old to be a senator." He strode out of the room, frothing with anger. ' Tbe cab went straight back to tbe railroad station, where Pettus took the Bret train home. He had not been back In Selma five minutea before every one In the villago knew that he was a candidate for United Statea senator. He stumped the entire atate, going into the furthermost counties to press hi claim for recognition. His campaign cry waa too old to be a judge, but not too old to be a senator. He Won an overwhelming victory. iOSUbTZ0WWt BULLETIM it Tn Jh 1 Ready To attain and sustain Perfect Health Requires no cooking 1o eai www (f Perfect Health is Sustained by Perfect Food.

Tho Increase In mercantile tonnage from 1890 to 1900 was 5,483,000 tons, and nearly tbe whole of tbla Increase was confined to the shipping of Europe. There la a amali decrease to be noted In the rase of coal production, and this waa due to the groat activity displayed In re gions outside tbe Anglo-Saxon and Teutonlo raeea; thus, In 1890 England, Germany and tbe United Statea produced s4 per oent of tha total output of coal; In 1900 tha pro portion had fallen to 80 per cent. .
