1 Compton Is Defeated. '
here was county-wide interest in
thef contest between T.v F.' Stroud
and A. D. Compton for thejeount'y
conymis'ionership in the Third dis
trict. Mr. Compton held the ad
vaiftage," or disadvantage1, of being
thuf incumbent seeking re-election,
whjJe Mr. Stroud was novice in
politics, backed, however, by a de
tcriiincd circle of friends.-A tabu
latin of all but 13 of th precincts
of "Jthe county, unofficial returns,
givs Stroud 25,336, as against 15,
S52i for Mr. Compton, a lead of 10,

crushing defeats of any of the-democratic
candidate. Charles Unitt;

sioner, won handily against Robert
Holmes, his democratic opponent.

Balloon School
To Be Removed
To Scott Field
Future of Post Here Will Be
Determined Later Order of
Transfer to Be Signed in
Near Future.
By E. C. SNYDER.
Washington C'orreVponilent Omaha Ilea.
Washington, Nov. 3. (Special
Telegram.) Fort Omaha is to be
abandoned as a balloon school and
troops and the entire equipment, in
cluding the hydrogen gas plant, will
be removed to Scott Field, near
Belleville, III., according to informa
tion given otu from responsible
military sources.
The decision to abandon the post
has been reached by the general staff
although it may be a month before
the orders for the transfer of troops
and equipment are issued.
No Reason Given.
The reason for the abandonment
of the Fort Omaha school icannot
be learned." The only explanation
given in military circles is that the
policy of the general staff calls for
centralization of activities in con
formity with ihe recently enacted
law reorganizing the army.
The future of the post is prob
lematical, although there is consid
fliiblc Ulk 01. ,-retaiuiiitf it . as a
supply depot, iihe amount of money
tlie. War department has for such
expenditures wiVJ probably decide
hat use will be made of the fort.
; v Troops Xre Reropved.
A. Leo Stevens, civilian balloon
instructor, aduuttcd yestetdu)' Fort
Oniaha troops -had already Jseert sent
to Scott Field.
:Capt. Henry White, coinninndins
officer at Fort Omnna.'and Maj. T.
lif. Van .Austin of Washington, are
n?v at Scott field inspecting it to
determine whether it is suitable for
a balloon post.
"Although there are plans for re
moving part of the post, I do not be
lieve this movement will occur im
mediately," said Mr. Stevens. "I
am to go to Scott field later and in
spect it." '
( Install Equipment Here.
Mr. Stevens denied reports that
the' hydrogen plant at Fort Omaha
vas now in the process of being, re
moved. He declared he was pre
paring to install more equipment at
the fort and predicted that although
a part of the 'post here might be
moved the fort would not be entire
ly abandoned. " "'''
" Lieut. - C. E.; Smith :of Washing
ton, (who 'arrived in Omaha yester
day, is of the opinion that if plans
are carried out Fort Omaha will be
completely abandoned. Plans for
moving the fort are in a formula
tive stages, as yet, he said.
