The proserin inn of persons ho voted Il

At the time the frauds were at first dis

private parties before a Justice of the peace
that the county attorney would dlsmlsa the

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

congressman, and it la aald that be baa
made promises to a doien or more work
ers In Omaha that they may become con
suls upon his re-election to congress. 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

master or minor department clerk, a the
result of his work.

man of the populist slate central commit

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 . , ,

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.

An Important meeting of the South
Omaha cavalry troop will be held at the

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.

In Pennsylvania the number of tons of

Tho total carrying capacity of the steam
ship mercantile marine of Europe in 1900
amounted to 12.468.000 tons, while that ot
North and South America was only about
one-twelfth, or 1.024,000 tons. 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. .
The decade under consideration can
acarcely lay claim to be known aa "the
piping times of peace," tor It Included six
wars. Tbeae were: .
Japnno-Chlneae .., 1R94
French Madagascar expedition 1895
Halo-Abyssinian 1SH6
Oreco-Turklsh .- 1W7
I nlted Statea and Spain
Transvaal revolt 1899-2902
The above little Hat explains easily the
enormoua rise tn the military budgets of
the world, although the Increate la not to
be aacrtbed entirely to the cost of tbeae
wars and expeditions, for with the ex
pressed and growing desire for peace there
la a proportionate evidence on tho part of
the nations to take atepa to secure pear
by being prepared for war. The army bud
gets of tha world have been Increased by
74.480.000 and tbe naval budgeta by 42,
680,000. In this respect tha United Statea
ahows tha greatest Increase. W'hlla tha ex
penses of the navy and army In Great
Britain were Increased by 48.6 per cent. In
Germany by 46.4 per cent and in France by
only 8.9 per cent, the percentage In tbe case
of tha United Statea waa Increased by 173.6,
and this enormous Increase began with the
war with Spain.
As tbe commercial atruggle lies nfalnly
between. Great Britain, Germany and tha
United Statea, It la Interesting to observe
tbe comparative percentage ot the exporta
tion of manufactured goods:
