I TIIE OMAIIA DAILY DEE; TITURSPAY, OCTOBER 13. 1901. WESTBERC'S CHARGES DEAD Admits Through Attorney He is Pons with HU Contest FINDS CHARGES OF FRAUD WITHOUT BASIS r laiUfiirtlca of Protestaat, Coaatr ' CcmIHM Prorei Hs is Wrtii- ' Hswell's Or t B Heard. The republican county executive commit tse, "meting as a convention to canvass ths returns of the county primaries Friday, effectually disposed of the prptest raised by John N." Westberg as to ths correctness of ths figures returned by the Judges and clerks and directed the chairman and sec retary to certify the nominations as al ready announced yesterday afternoon aftei an all-day hearing on the Weathers; cora filaint.' ' . i was found that no attempts at fraud avd been made or were alleged so far as Jhown, and for several reasons, not th Vssl of which was the fact that it would & physically Impossible to recount ths ballots before the time for filing expiree Monday, the committee declared ths re turns of the canvassing board final. Attorney W, F. Ourley, who wtth B. O. Burbank represented. Westberg, said after ths meeting had adjourned he contemplated no further effort to have Milts Lee's place on ths legislative ticket Alle4 by his client. The commltte overruled the objection seal tmt the East Omaha election In the morning and completed Its work In ths afternoon. The second objection raised was to the returns from tht Third ward, where a recount of ths vota was asked. Ourley declared the returns were not legal be cause not properly certified to, holding that this was trua, also, of the list of voters mada by the Judges anl clerks. He said the returns should either be thrown out or the ballots recounted. Mr. Lee )ointed out that all objections to the Third ward re turns were purely technical and that they were correct In substance. Chairman Cowell remarked that If the ballot box for one ward was opened It would likely precipi tate fresh contests In other wards Involv ing Candidates Bhepard and Kata besides Westberg and Lee, and he did not see how the whole vote could be checked in time to get the ticket In the field. If One, Then All. Committeeman Dodge said in his opinion lit Orui ballot box was opened all would have to be. H. remarked further that he would not consider the direct primary plan a success unless tbs law was changed so as to demand a reoount of ths votes .by way of auditing by ths county commlttes in all cases where the 1 dlreot scheme of nominating Is used. A motion to quash ths Third ward objection . was adopted unanimously. ' The next matter and the last taken up was the protest against the returns from the Fifth ward, whsre Wsstberg alleged that at least twenty votes had been lost to ' him bea&use voters made their cross below his name, which appeared last in a group of legislative candidatss. His law yers conUaJed that these crosses should have btsu counted for hint and that the ballets should be checked over to determine the exact status. , The coumlttee agreed that it would be folly to attempt the delicate task of Interpreting the Intent of the voter, and for this reason and the lack of evidence of fraud, the ob jection was overruled. . . The city committee will meet at 10 o'clock this morning In Treasurer Morgan's office in ths New Tork Life building to take up R. B. Howell's declaration that hs was not treated fairly in the election. INTERIOR GRAIN RATES CUT caedalea to Omaha Radaeed by the H. V ' O.

Ladies; Sole Western Agents NEEDLESS DRAG. Just think what an amount of strength 'yoa-; waste every day when you wear heavier shoes than you need! You lift a few ounces of useless weight at every step, and this amounts to more than a ton of useless lifting between sunrise and sunset. ; ' . I say "useless" lifting because this additional weight of leather need not be in the shoes to make them either strong or enduring. i , ,j ' There are at least three ounces of unnecessary weight hi an ordinary pair of women's shoes, and this means just so much! needless drag on the feet. The only shoe that saves this weight for you Is the "Dorothy Dodi." The scales tell the story 'when you buy; your feet tell the story when you wear the shoes.
