COUNTY TO SELL
YOTE MACHINES
Roard of Commissioners Decides
that it Will Get Rid of
Them.
AS RESULT OF INACCURACIES
Elsaeaer Vote No and Lynch Passes
Ilia Vote Commissioner Say
that City Will Make the
Same Move.
As a result of recent disclosures of In
accuracy, unreliability and undependa
bllity of the voting machines, which have
been in use In Douglas county for the
last six years, the Board of County Com
missioners voted to abandon their use
and to prohibit It In the future at their
meeting yesterday. A resolution offering
the county's thirty-eight machines for
sale to the best bidder was deferred until
Wednesday morning to afford time to
determine the best method . of - selling
them. .':.
Commissioner O. J. Plckard introduced
the resolution doing away with-.the' pee
wX. the maohlnes and spoke-in support of
the measure. He declared that It was
not political move.
"During the last week," said Mr. Plck
ard. "leaders of both - parties have told
me they believed the use of the machines
should bo done away with. Such repub
licans it Judge Sutton, Judge Esteile and
County Clerk-elect Frank Dewey have
told me they are certain the machines are
not to be relied upon. Democrats like 11.
L. Endres and John H. Grossman have
said the lame, At the commission plan
election next year the machines could not
be used, as the -law specifically provides
that the Australian ballot be used. There
Is no election near at hand. Nobody
knows now what the lineup or situation
will be by the time , another election
comes. Therefore, it cannot be thought
there Is any political motive behind this.
We bought the machlnea In 1906 and
six years of use, I believe, has convinced
most people that they are a failure.
Commissioner Lynch said he "went up
against" the machines a year ago, when
they gave the democrats the advantage,
and he managed - to be elected. There
fore, he said, he had no personal objec
tions to the machines, but neither had
he objections to the Australian ballot.
He said he had not studied the proposi
tion enough to be able to vote Intelli
gently, so he would pass.
Commissioner Elsasser said In his opin
ion the county first should confer with
Omaha and South Omaha city councils.
Bedford, O'Connor and Plckard voted
yea; Elaasser, no; Lynch passed.
On the resolution to offer the machines
for sale, Elsasser again suggested the
advisability of the county's inducing
Omaha and South Omaha to act simi
larly. Mr. Plckard said he understood
they would. There was some discussion
as to the best method of selling the ma
chines, which ended when Lynch moved
to defer until next Wednesday's meeting.
Methods will be discussed then.
Douglas county owns thirty-eight of the
machines. The others are owned by
Omaha and South Omaha. The machines
cost Sii&O each.'

lorney for the Rockefeller Intercuts on
the Iron Range, and former attorney for
the United States Steel corporation, today
telegraphed a Statement to Augustus O.
Stanley, chairman of the Investigating
committee.
C. P. Marti testified, before the Stanley
committee that he had keen ordered as
chief engineer to "pad" th cost o pro.
duel tig the Duluth, Missab Northern
railroad, klleglng- that George Wtlwopd.
-drry and Joseph B. Cotton, then at

trn, had Issued tha orders. Failing to

Marti testified, his position was taken
fcway from him within ona year,
Th statement say In part:
"Mj' attention has been called to the
reports of recent testimony of one C. P.
Start before your committee. I hereby
notify you that any statement by said
Marts before your committee that either
Georg Welwood Murray or I ever ro
quested or advised or required Marts to
pad or Increase the valuation or esti
mates of cort or cort of reproduction of
the Duluth, Mlsaabe & Northern railroad
to any extent or In any particular what
ever Is an unqualified and malicious false
hood. Hays .Tarts Was Fired.
"Permit me .'o add: Marts was the
chief engineer of th Mlssabe railroad
until In April, 189.1, when he was removed
by the management for Incompetency.
"Only two proceedings were ever Insti
tuted attacking the ore rates of th Mis
nabe St Duluth and tro Range railroads,
and the were brought bofore th Min
nesota Railroad commission, 'ine first
was commenced April 25, 1K9S, by John
d. Brown and others. The principal at
tack was against the Iron Rang railroad.
although any order mad as tojt would
equally have affected the Mlasube.
"Voluminous testimony was taken at
Duluth, St. Paul, Cisveland. Chicago and
elsewhere. The complainants employed
and use competent and experienced rail
road engineers, real estate and other ex
perts. Salt Was Dismissed.
"On of th principal questions In
volved wits the cost of reproducing the
railroads, docks, rolling stock and equip
ment as of the time of the suit; not their
original cost. The estimates of cost of
reproduction of the Mlsnabe were pro
pared by 11. L. Dresser, who succeeded
Marts, and concurred In by said Marls,
and supporting these estimate tha
Mlssabe had expert Witnesses. After a
hearing lasting nearly all summer tha
cane was voluntarily dismissed by the
complainants November 26, 1H08.
'I must insist that the record of the
proceedings be corrected In accordance
with the facts to the end that tne falsity
of th Marts testimony shall not stand
unchallenged.
"I regret exceedingly that, while you
were In Duluth last summer and had
Marts come from western Minnesota, you
did not take sufficient time to get th
truth and the whole truth, which was
easily obtainable. Instead of giving
credence to the statement of a dis
gruntled, discharged employe, obviously
seeking cheap notoriety. You will agree
with me, I am sure, that official position
does not clothe anyone with authority
or right to bring about or be the cause
uf Injustice or wrong to any citizen."

LINCOLN, Nov. 25. (Special Telegram.)
Nebraska outplayed the famous Mlchl
gon eleven this afternoon In one of the
grandest foot ball battles ever fought on
Nebraska field. Wolverine luck gave th
visitors a tie score of 4 to 4.
With tho exception of ft few minutes
In th opening quarter, the Michigan
eleven was excelled In every department
of th game, punting excepted. Th Corn
husker carried the ball three times ft
far as the Michigan player. The Corn
husker forwards more than held their
own with Yot' heroes. The Cornhusker
back field was ft wonder and It brilliant
dashea and charges were the beet that
any Nebraska eleven of recent year fca
seen.
Both school scored ft touchdown. Ne
braska's was ' earned through - hard
straight foot ball, white Michigan made
it score thiough the blocking of a kick.
Coptnia Conklln rushing through and
keeping Gibson' boot from advancing.
He pinked up th ball and. raced across
tho goal line and then kicked goal. Tht
score of th Wolverines was mad soon
after th second half opened.
Tonrhdoivn for Nebraska.
Nebraska cam back In th next thre
mlnuta of play and took U4 ball on th
thirty-yard line. When ft Wolverin
fumbled Shonka mad ft powerful lung
Into; th MichHtun- lino ft ml advanced to
th twenty-yard mark. Purdy twlc
rushed and shoved th ball across th
goal line. Potter kicked goal. -
Tho playing of th Cornhusker back
field was the most remarkable that th
eleven ha displayed this fall. Th two
Prank brothers and Purdy made th
greatest gains. Purdy pldnged Into the
Michigan line for many gain of four and
five yard and made some of them good
for ten and twelve yards. The Michigan
line and secondary deense seemed un-
ble to stand up under th terrific on- '
slaughts o( the Nebraska backs.
That the game should have been woq
by Nebraska, none who taw It doubt.
Michigan rooter declared that Nebraska
played the better ball, ltrfore th contest
all expected Nebraska to be the defensive
team and to be forced to struggle to avert
defeat. But It was Michigan that had to
fight all th. time In order to keep th
glunt Cornhusker from rushing ovr th
last chalk mark.
In tha final five minute of plat th
Cornhusker carried the oval from th
center1 of the field on straight foot ball
to the fifteen-yard line of the Wolverines.
Owen Frank fell back to the twenty-yard
mark and tried ft drop kick. The pas
wan poor and the star Cornhusker re
ceived th boll on th bouud, but evn
with that, Frank mad a creditable kick
which went to the south of th upright.
Cornhoakers Robbed of Game.
Nebraska ns always will bUv they
wor robbed of the game and Coach
Stlehm feels that his men were done In
justice. In th second quarter Owen
Frank carried the ball over the Michigan
goal line on a forward pass from ft tak
