Judive Troup granted Saturday morning
.he mandamus against City Clerk Butler
-ayel for by the republican candidates
'or city engineer and the excise board.
The Australian ballot, according to the
cims of the court's order, will be the
lily election devica used.
Judge Troup declared that "not only the
ri. nut common fairness to the candidatei
mil all of the candidates and to tho voter.
mid Hie- integrity and fairness of the elec
H'. n Itself require that the prayer of the
p thinners be granted."
'The decision was based upon section 11.
chapter l7. of the General Laws of Ne
I'taska. This provides;
Thai at all elections where voting ma
chine? shall be used the voting machine
shall be regaidcd and treated as a substi
tute for the paper ballot and ballot boxes
heretofore used.
"The plain Intent of the legislature." de
clined the imirt, "was that the voting ma
chine should replace the ballot in entirety,
.not In part; that It ahould be a substitute
'or the paper ballot as a whole. Moreover,

"It Is claimed that the petition came too

no doubt, has acted In the utmost good
faith, nevertheless the consequence fol

account of whom the righta of the candl-

nor the election Itself possibly rendered

"Counsel for the defendant baa raised
the point that a ruling such as I have In

If you want to see a busy boy cast your
eyes cn Mr.. D. Butler,- city clerk.
The court's ruling St this late day to
place the names of all candldatea for all
offices on printed ballots and vote at Tues
day's election under the old Australian sys
tem, -discarding the voting machines en
tirely", Is causing no end of trouble In the
office of the city clerk. It will also com
pel a- force of printers and - pressmen to
work night snd day from now until late
Monday night and there will be no Sunday
rest for the clerks In the clerk s office ort
ths printers Who turn out the brilolts.
The slips. and charts for the voting ma
chines, together with the poll books, have
all bean printed and prepared for delivery
to the severs.) booths, but these will all
have' to be thrown away. This little
change 1n the' program will cost
the city, about flOUO. ; New poll . books
will have to be , printed , and- bound and
about W.000 ballots. Including official and
sample, muao be printed, counted, sealed
and delivered to the fifty-four voting pre
cincts before ?: o'clock Tuesday morning.
Carpenters will have to be pressed into
the work and booths constructed at most
of the polling places, as the accommoda
tiona are not sufficient for an election
where the vote will be many times heavier
than at a primary.
The ballot will be four feet long and six
Inches wide, the official ballots to be on
white paper and the samples on pink
paper. They will contain an even 1ti
namea. There are three candldatea each
for mayor, clerk, comptroller, attorney and
building Inapector, thirty-six csndidates
for the council; five for city engineer and
forty-four for the Board of Fire and Fo
lic Commlslaoners.
There will be one column on the ballot
and the name of one candidate In a line.
The democratic nominee for each office
will appear first on all ballots and the
names will not rotate aa at a primary elec
tion. The clerk Is a democrat and he
naturally gives his party the preference.
At the head ef the ballot will appear the
names of the candldatea for mayor
Dahlman, democrat; Breen, republican;
Vaughan, socialist. Ten will come the
candidates for clerk Butler. Oreenleaf and
Weetman and following will be the can
didates for comptroller, attorney and build
ing Inspector, the democrat being named
first, republican second and socialist third.
The five candldatea for city engineer will
com next, then the thirty-six candidates
for the council on the three tickets and
at the bottom will be the candidates for
th excite board. The democratic nominee
for this board will appear first within a
bracket and then the republican nominees
in ths sam form. Th other thirty-six
candidates. Including the four endorsed by
th Anti-Saloon league, will follow without
brackets, aa the league la not a party.
City Clerk Butler says It will take about
a week to count th votss cast under the
Australian ballot law.
Women Spear Men

lively woman has discovered a( new,
albeit an expensive weapon, wherewith to
make horrid man gel out of the way.
A sale of ro bushes was In progress for
some dsys st a Douglas street store, and
from that as a center th aforesaid lovely
women War radiating in all directions
which coincide with public throughfsrea.
The rose' bushes were so large It was
practically impossible to carry them in any
way except transversely across the body.
Thus two or three fe-?t of rose bush covered
with fin, prickly thorns, extended back
of the shoulder almost as far from the
body as the big hats upon which fickle
fashion recently put, we aie told, the
kibosh.
Thus armored snd apportena-nced. the
purchasers of the rose bushes could and
did walk up th street, sometimes literally
cutting a wide awath. Mete men who
failed lo step aside the distance due felt
a series of stings upon th cheek and neck
like unto the bite of a wasp, and on ex
perience proved all sufficient In every caae.
The progress ot the rose bearers proved a
sort of running the gauntlet with reverse

Colonel Fanning avrrs that lie has been
