DECIDING THE 1ISSUE. Voters Eagaged in ths Dty of Selecting Men for Office. FIRST TRIAL OF THE AUSTRALIAN LAW. Delays Ocoasioned by Ignorancs and Incom- petence of Some Officials. » ATTEMPTS TO OBSTRUCT THE ELECTION. Democrats Are Disheartoned but Lose Nono of Their Defiant B OPPOSED TO REPUBLICAN CHALLENGERS. )ldness, Tried to Vote Colonized Graders—kEx- perience of Women at the Polls —~Scenes and Incidents at the Booths, Yestorday tho voters of Omaha bad their first oxperience with the Australian ballot and the Australian election law, this belng tho first clection held sinco tho new law went into effuct, There is o great differenco ot opinion as to whether or not the new plan is a success, Bomo of tho votors declaro that it s just the thing, while others pronouace it an intoler Bble nuisanco, The day opened cool and chilly and not onco did the sun show its faco throngh the hoavy clouds that overspread tho sky from carly morning. This in no wise damp ened thio ardor of tho politicians and ward ‘workers, ‘I'hey were on hand early, eager for the fray, but it was not long until the realization that their occupation was gono und that political leg pulling was a thing that had beon relcgated to the rear. Delay in Opening the Polls Tho polls in the eighty-eight districts should havo openod prompily at§ o'clock, but there was an inexcusablo delay upon the part of some one connected with the maninu ion of the election machinery. “he special policemen appointed by Mayor Cushing and Acting Mayor Lowry had been detafled | instructed to be at the oftices of the city and county clerk at an early hour to take 10 the respective precinets the books, vallots _and boxes, but mot till after 7 oclock did & guardian of the peaco appear at oithor placo. This was the cayso for a serious delay, and in wany instahices the outfits wers not turned over tothe judges and clerks until after 9 c'clock. Slow Work at First. Aftor the machinory was onco set in_mo- tion the voting continued without inter- ruption, but the work for a time was slow and labored. Tho judges in nearly evory procinct kept e voiers waiting whilo thoy signed up the tickots and « great deal of timo was lost in hunting through tho registration lists for the names of tho voters aftor thoy had aunouaced thomselves, The voters woro slow as well as the fudges and clorks and as a rule 1t took the average voter from ten to fifteen minutes to go through the three tickets, Kept Duplicate Tickets, In most of tho wards the voters heeded Tk Beg's warniog, that fraud might bo at- tempted upon the part of some of tho parties connected with the canvassiug boards. Thoy took sample ballots with them into the stalls, and thon made oxact copies of tho ballots a3 voted. Shortly after tho opening of the polls the democrals grow bold aud resorted to the most disreputablo tricks to steal the olection, They realized that it was a losing fight and were willing toresort to almost anything to bring their canaidates to the front. “They wero loud in - denouncing the ropub licans and openly asserted thatin many in- stances o forcign voters had tradea Ost- hoff for othier candidates. Osthoff heard the rumor just beforo noon and put ia a couplo of hours tracing the report. Later on he heard enough to cause him to sweat blood, after which ho spent tho greater portion of the day closeted with his strikers, itted Osthofr's Defeat. th ward tha demoerats them- solves circulatod the roport tiat Osthoff was beaten, and as soon as the word was con- voved 'to the other wards, thoy massed thelr strongth in an offort to defeat J. W. Eller for county judge. They gave their reasons and said they would turn the heavens and the earth to elect P, J. King. If they could dothat they would' seat him nnd contest the balance of the ticket. They would bring tho contest proceediugs boforo King and there win what they had lost on the day of election, “Closed, Election Day." Around tho city offics presided over by domocrats, everything was as quiet as the grave and this dard being in most of the win- dows: “Closed, Ilection Day." The chiofs pulled down the curtains, m- structed their hivelings how, where and when to work, after which they went out to leg for Osthoff, uud the balanco of the demo. cratic ticket. It was an uphill fight, and many of them doserted tho_old ship long boforo the dinner horn sounded. Chairmun Birkhauser of the Board of Publio Works joined forces with Plumbing Inspector — Den and Ed Morearty and worked like boavers. At noon they had a mutual admiration meeting and voted the democraoy a dead duck in the Seventh ward. Prosident Lowry of tho city council mado & desperato attompt to pocket his ward, but oven with the aid of his judges and clorks the ward came up smiling with the old time domocratic majority redv.ced several hundred The Fifth, Osthoff's own ward asa rule is good for a democratic majority that reache: up into the hundreds, but it is not that way this year and money that is put up by the republicans that it will break even is réfused and finds no takers, ouble at Various Polls, Tn the Fifth district of,the Soventh ward the special policeman ppomnted by Tom Lowry deserted his post shordy after the polls opened and loft everything in the hands of the democratic mob, The regular ofiicer on the beat refused to restore order, aod Chief Seavoy was compelied to detail two ofticers from the regular forco to bring about order. Tho First precinct of the First ward was wholly in the bands of tho democrats, They captured tho polls and refused to allow the ropublican challenger admission. A visit by a member of the repub- lican central committee and & threat that the whole outfit would be arrested brought the gentlemen to time. Out in th Eighth district of tho Fifth ward, when the judges assembled, it was discovered that ono of the judges was'a nonresident of the dis triot. *Tho vacancy was filled by appointing ono of the bystandars. 1n the Iifth district of the Fifth ward a democrat, one McNamara, was peddling democratic tickets at the door of the booth. The voters asked that ko be removed. Tho polico paid no attention to the demands and all day long the fellow was allowed to annoy the voters, In the Fourth district of the Eight ward, tho republican chullengor was denied admit' tanco,"and was forced to romain outsido tho oor. Novor beforo in the history of Omaha did tho Unlon Pacific shops close’ down on elec- tlon day, but yesterday tho fires are out and silence roigns supremo. The men were given & aay off and instructed to be sure and vote, Most of the business moun voted early, after which thoy urged upon their clerks the necessity of doing likewise, Feddlod Tickets at the Polls. During the early hours of the day demo- cratie ticket pedalers were operating at the very doors of *the polling piace i the Tenth district of the Fifth ward, but were finally driven back. In the Sixth precinct of the First ward the Fopublican challouger was throwa out bodily, s but Chairman Smith of the eity central com- mittee was notified and he threatened the judges with arrest uniess thoy ceased their opposition to the presenca of tho challenger. “That had the desired offoct. 1t was reported at hoadquarters that a man named Ticoy who was acting as a judge in tho rourth district of the ighth ward was not a resident of the district Tn the Third precinct of the Ninth ward ono of tho judges started in by unfolding und examining every ballot voted, but was finally persuaded that hie was overstopping his pre- rogative. In the Second district of the Third ward a judge, Timothy Dol was seen talking and influencing Ed Ri and charges wero mads and ho was challenged but both o in their votos was_ aftorward o0 repeating the operat and the case us roportod to the city central committee. In the Eighth district of tho Third ward tho first ballot was not cast until after 10 o' clock o the Eignth district of the wero_delivered there by mistake, and ths wranglo that_ensued over changing them lusted half the forenoon, and until several prominent citizens went down and straightened out matters. The first woman who cast . ballot voted in the Second district of the Seventh ward, Owing to the misunderstanding of the elec- tion law which allows o voter ten minutes in which to prepare his ballot, an attompt was made in some of tho wards to limit the time to five minutes, but this was soon made kuown to neadquarters, and challengers woro instructod to sco that o ono was disfran- chised in any such manner, At Headquarters, The political headquarters do not draw tho crowds toat thoy did yesterday. At the democratic rooms a few of the true and tried ones stood around, conversing principally upon the condition' of the weather, When asked about the political outlook tuey reply that “it looks p fuir,” and *we do nov admit toat we are defeatod.’” At ropublican headqaartors evorything is hu bustle, few men bhaving time to Men and carriages are being sent to men and places, whilo the opinion prevails that the ropublicans aro sure winner D.

Ward Workers’ Occupation Gone. Porhaps the most noticeablo featuro of tho practical illustration of the operation of tho ° Australian ballot law was the inactivity in some places and the total absence in others of the ward heolers who have hieretoforo been such prominent figures about the polls, The idea was very prevalent and wns gen- orally remarked that the passage of tho law bad signed the death warrant of thoso bum- mers and political c as henceforth and forever their pet o n is gone. There Was 10 opportunity the employment of their old methods of ntimidation, and the fow of thom who showed up in their accustomed places looked and ~ felt sadly out of placo as thoy thought of tho good old days when they had unlimited license to bulldoze and bribo as circumstances would admit. In the language of the day ‘‘they were not in it,” and none kuew it better than themselves, There were nouoof tho rolls of oncs and twos or pockets full of silver cartwheeis to be slipped into the itching palms of the many who thougnt their vote was worth something, There was vacant spaco whore formerly the capper porambulated up and down the line to see that no slight of hand work was dono in changing tho tickets after his cheaply purchased chattol was headed for the win- dow. Tho ofticious and well paid bummer was 1ot called upon to waltz around the cor- ner and dictate the scratching of a ticket or the entire substitution of ono for another. It was all new, and the chango was a most agreeable one to everybody but tho sharks Who had been legislated out into tne cold. Busicst Man in the City. Probably the busicst man in tho city was Chairman Dick Smith of the repubtican city central committeo, under whose able leadership such excellent organization was effected all over tho city in pre- pariug for the work of olection du; The work of preparation was not all, how- ever, for the programme to be carried out, and 'to lkeep track of what is going on in eighty-eight precincts is no small task, y Mr. Swmith got around personally to dozens of them, heard directly from ail tho others acd ' found time to listen to all compluints and provido means for roliof. He did not allow the interest to lag, but kept his licutenants on the move. To his effor! wero lacgely due tho early polling of so large a percentage of the business vote, and tho Jittlo dificulty experienced by voters in pre- ring to deposit their ballots, Arrested a Challenger. At1o'clock tho foroman of the Donohoe gang of gradors went to the police station and furnishea bail for seven of tho gang who wero arrosted Monday for stealing. them tothe Iirst precinet of the Seventh v and had them vote. He previously anuounced tuat these were sevan straight democratic votes that the republicans had tried to steal by having the men arrosted. Mr. C. H. Thomas promptly challenged tho votes of the graders and protested that they should not bo given the right of franchise, Ho was arrested at the instigation of the democrats and taken to the police station. Mr. N. J. Maxwell, the ropublican chal- lengor at the Seventli precinet of tho Fifth ward camo Lo the republican headquarters at 2 o'clock and said the domoerats had run him out. He said that a great many voters were pretending that thoy could not'read and tho judges wero fixing tho tickets for them, Ho protested against some of the business that looked erooked and tho judges told him to shut his mouth and got ‘out of there, He saw that the clection board was solid against him 50 he left the polls. Retused to Let Women Vote. At the Soventh precinct of the Seventh ward several women went to the poils to vote but tho judges refused to admit them to the booth and refused to furnish them with bailots. Miss Hanna Roberts visited the re- publican beadquarters and made complaint abou the matter. Sho was informed that sho might get out a mandamus and compel tho judges to reccive her ballot, Tn some preeincts the votes of the women wore accepted on school bond matters with- out protest. In the First district of tho Fifte ward the fivst applicant for a ticket was alittle wom who carried a baby in her arms. Sho was allowed to voto, und her oxample was fol lowed by a number of other women. 1n the Second district of the Fifth the judges were nov so fatherly and refused the right of frc chiso to women under auy and il circum- stances, ———— They Dread Cold Weather, Persons subject to muscular rheumatism kavo good reason for dreading the cold waather of tho winter mouths, Thoey will find much relief, however, if nota permanent cure by applying Chamberlain's Pam Balw, It promptly relieves tho pain and in many cases has effected permanent cures.
