falas evidence against Judge Holcomb, Cam. palgn roorbachs are flying thick and fast, Circulars contalning misstatements are be- ing distributed broadcast, many of them be- g prifited In the Bohemian, German and Swedish languages. All that fraud and mi; representation can do will be done before dark tonight, but there are plenty of evi- dences to prove that the great mass of voters re not being decelved by the final efforts of the Majors workers. Shortly before noon yesterday a number of workmen were sent to the different parts of the down town districts to spread the false raport that Mr. Rosewater had finally given up the fight and was admitting that Majors would be clected. The statement is as false the other campalgn lies being circulated #0 ftreely. ORDERS FROM RATLROAD BOSSES. Interest throughout the local railroad world 18 at white heat and all sorts of opinions are heard as to the outcome of the elcction to- morrow. Peremptory orders have been Issued by some of the rallroad travellng men that they will be expected to vote today at their places of residence and charigo their routes accordingly. Orders were also given that all railroad men who could walk would be looked for in the pro- ceselon last night, and that fallure to ap- pear would be considered an evidence of disability sufficlent to entitle the sufterer to a vacation, What Tom Lowry Did. OMAHA, Nov. 6.—To the Editor of The Beer A circular has been issued by Tom Lowry showing how much he did for the First ward during his former councilmanic career. He fails to state, however, the price paid by the Thomson-Houston Electric Light company for his Leavenworth street lot. Neither does Tom state in accordance with the fact that some of his so-called improve- ments were gigantic frauds. The grading of Sixth street cansed ruin to a vast amount of desirable residence property and practically confiscated the lots of a large number of poor men. The paving of Ninth street was forced on the property owners against their will by Lowry, and in consequence Judge Keysor has just decided that the entire cost of this paving must be borne by the generad taxpayers. The voters of the First ward should now select a councilman who will represent the whole people and not contractors and personal interests. This can be done by electing 8.

PAUL, Nov. 5.—Minngsota will tomor- row elect a full state, congressional and leg- fslative ticket and the leading parties are making great claims. The republican com- mittee claims Governor Nelson will be re- elected and predict a solid congressional dele- gation by a good majority. The democrats claim that Becker for governor will be elocted by 5,000 or more; that part of the state ticket will follow him and that at least two congressmen will be democrats. The populists simply claim the election of Sidney M. Owen for governor, without giving flgures, express confidence in the re-election of Con- gressman Boen and assert they hold the Dalance of power in the legislature.

Small spoke here about three weeks ago, and some of his allusions displeased a large number of people who heard him. His friends, evi- dently fearing he would not meet a proper raeeption, had five policemen at the depot to receive him. The hall in which he spoke was likewlse as strongly guarded, and at the conclusion of his address he was es- corted to the depot by several guardians of the peace and by a bodyguard of citizens No' one attempted to molest him. His speceh, which occupled over two hours, was intended to help Rucker's populist-prohibi- tion compaign.

Early yesterfay W. D. McHugh of the democratic party and B. P. Davis of the Majors end of the republican party called upon Judge Ferguson with the decision of the supreme court, duly certified. This the judge read and then entered an order reversing his former findings. hour later W. S. Shoe- maker had instituted a suit against County Clerk Sackett, citing him to appear before Judge Ferguson at 10 o'clock yesterday and slow cause why he should not continue to obey the former order of the court. In presenting the case, Attorney Smyth, who appeared for Shoemaker, eontended that Sackett had ordered tlie ballots printed in ac- cordance with the terms of the former order and that now he intended to violate the same by printing other ballots which would be mis- leading and tinctured with fraud. He in- sisted that 10,000 of the sample ballots with the name of each democratic and populist candidate bunched with the bracket had been sent ont to the voters of the county and that now to print them in any other form would be misleading. Sackett was put upon the witness testified that he had taken time by the fore- lock and that having a presentiment that Judge Ferguson would be overruled, he had red both kinds of tickets printed last nd and Charles Klopp, the county printing tractor, testified that his firm had the tickets which were known am kind, but knew nothing about the o Mr. Sackett said that the ticket:s had been printed, but not under the regular contract Judge Ferguson, in passing upon the ea said that he would have to bow in submission to the orders of the supreme court, though as a matter of fact he thought that the plan would result in misleading many of the voters. The candidates were certainly nomi- nated by different party conventions, which gave them the right o have the party desig- nations. The case against the clerk was dis- missed and the costs taxed against the plaintifr. ANOTHER TURN TO IT. As s00n as the decision of Judge Ferguson was rendered County Clerk Sackett hustled over to his office, and at once commenced sending out the tickets which had the political designation of Judge Holcomb and the other nominees of the democratic con- vention all upon one line. Mr. Shoemaker would not down, however, and at once filed a motion raising the ques- tion that in filing his objections to the former decision of Judge Ferguson, H. J. Davis, who appeared for Clerk Sackett, had allowed the time to lapse, and thaf the court was without jurisdiction In the case. Mr. Davis contended that this was a ques- tion which was too simple to discuss, and picking up his books left the room. =~ Mr Shoemaker, however, thought not, and at once commenced to read the law, showing that the position taken by Mr. Sackett and his attorney was not good, and that owing to the fact that the motion was flled out of time Judge Ferguson was without legal authority to reverse (he opinions which he handed ‘down on October 31, when he held that the name of Judge Holcomb should ap- pear like this on both sample and official con- printed e brace ers, People’s” Independent. . Holeomb, : Democrs pon the ocea October 81, J names should jon of deciding this case dge Ferguson held that be connected with a bracket, and that a cross or “X" opposite either designation should be considersd a vote for Judge Holeomb for governor. After hearing the arguments and the law presented by Mr. Shoemaker Judg: Ferguson took the case under advisement, saying that he would hand down a decision at 4 o'clock yesterday afternoon. When that hour arrived the room was filled with in- terested spectators, and in a few words Judge Ferguson decided that the objections made by Mr. Shoemaker were good, and that the attorneys for County Clerk Sackett were o0 late in filing their objections to the decision formerly rendered. While this decision did not reverse the one handed down at the morning session of the court it had the effect of destroying its effect and left the ballot in the same form as when the first opinion was filed, With the rendering of the last decision, Judge Kerguson vacated the decision ren- dered in the morning and set the same aside, At 5 o'clock yesterday afterncon the sherift served a notice on Seckett, notifylng him of | the finding of the court and instructing him not to send out any of the ballots printed [ in " conformity with the decision rendered at the morning session ackett stated | that he conld not comply with the order, as he said that he had sent out all of the bal- lots, both sample and official, though whe | court was in session and when Sackett was on the witness stand he testified that he had ordered and had In his possession ballots of both kinds, thosa with and those without the brackets. ~ He said that he had ordered two sets printed in order to be prepared in case an emergency of this kind arose. on the AUBURN'S INDEPENDENE RALLY. Great Crowds Gather in that City te Close the Campaign. AUBURN, Neb., Nov. 5.—(Special Tele- gram.)—The largest rally ever held in this county the Independent rally here to- night. The court house would not ac 0- late half the crowd, and an overflow meeting was held on the square. The crowd was esti- mated at 2,000, The republican was rally at the opera house was small in comparison. Voters of this county have already repudiated Majors it tonight's demonstration Is any indieation. While the parade was passing the opera house where the republican rally was being held, a volley of stones was thrown at Majors tran: parences. Holcomb's ¥ onfideat. KEARNEY, Neb., Nov. 6.—The last gun to bo fired in this county during this campaign was discharged tonight. The independents saved their heavy ammunition until the last, and Holeomb and Green poured hot shot into the enemy's camp at the armory while re- publican nominees on the county ticket held the fort at the opera house. There was & street parade before the speaking commenced and the people were wild with enthuslasm. The prospects are that the_election wil be close in this county, but Holecomb's friends are confident that he will lead the ticket by 500 to 800 majority. wndicapped by Lack of Funds. BUTTE, Neb., Nov. b.~(Speelal Telegram.) —The mandamus sult (nstituted by the populist central committes to compel o change n the form of ballots was yesterday dismissed by request of the eommittes. The ballots have all been printed and the flnances of the county are such that'if a matdamus lssued no election could be hel, as no money could be had to pay for reprinting the tickets. T. V.

Two months of frantic endeavor to land a candidate chosen by corporations in spiracy against freedom of thought speech was closed in Omaha as it was begun in the state—by the rallroads. BEvery torch that burned In the procession was supplied with Standard oil and lighted by a railroad match, The bands were paid with railroad money. The Roman candles were bought with rail- road earaings. The red fire at the street Intersections flared up at the expense of railroad dividends. Hundreds of those who marched in the procession did so for fear of losing their lobs, and the fact that a majority of the “Majors hosts” ocarried torches on choulders, or two torches on one shoulder, showed the profusion in which the railroads dealt out the stocks and cans. I order to double the number of those who seemed likely to be in line, 900 eager boys, who will not vote before the twentieth century, were gladly supplied with flaming brands. Many of tho dirge will vote for Holcomb raliroad employes who notice that it would be turn out, Torches were distributed at the B. city ticket office. Men on the sidewalks quadrupled the num- ber in line and aside from the toot of tin horns and the noise of the bands, the only enthusiasm noticed was when somebody on the sidewalk hurrahed for Holcomb and caused a response that was a hearty yell or drew forth from all in hearing, ‘That's right.” The line contained about 1,800, and one-half of those were not men, but boys. There were six bands in the parade. At several corners red fire was burned, as the parade passed, but beyond that very little fire- works were set off. Although the men in line yelled lustily for the tattooed candidate along the line they recelved but little re- sponse from the speetator: The parade started from Seventeenth and Farnam after 8 o'clock, with Marshal B. at the head, with his mounted staff.

When these bankers and the corporations understand that the American flag does not mean Tom Majors, but that it is the emblem of free speech, of the privilege of the individual voter to exercise his po- litical rights untrammeled, then will we in- deed have equality before the law. “In conclusfon, I wish to say particularly to the young men who are enrolled in the volunteer army and are going forth tomor- Tow to receive their first ordeal. Years ago thousands of young men marched to the defense of their flag, and they, too, marched into battle to receive their first ordeal of blood, ~ They shed their blood then for liberty and independence. If these will shed a little ink on their ballot tomorrow this liberty and independence will be preserved for all time to come. The battle is about to begin and it is about to elose. I be- lieve as firmly as 1 believe that the sun will rise tomorrow that Nebraska will be re- deemed from the disgrace of government b the monopolies and that the state go n- ment will be placed in the hands of a man who will administer it for the whole people.” (Applause and cheers.) HOWE SAYS MAJORS IS COOKED. There were loud calls for John D. Howe, and that gentleman was compelled to r spond, being lustily checred as he walked up the aisle and to a place on the platforn, from whence he was Introduced by the chairman, Mr. Howe said that he and the audience had had the pleasure and satis- faction of fistening to o speeches of the campaign, delivered by of the mest able men in the state. “You have heard Mr. Rose Tom Majors to a turn, and at th 1o time you have heard him tell nothing but the truth. Concerning this man Majors, my bellef is that any man who will accept a bribe, he the people should stamp as with the brand of Cain. Yes, Rosewater has roasted Majors, or rather Majors has roasted himself. “When T spoke in this hall a few nights ago I outlined the real issues in this cam- palgn, and now I want to reiterate what I said upon that occasion. The question ls, shall the people of the state rule, or shali the dictation come from Wall street; shall they rule as free men, or as free men shall they be ruled.” Heferring to the torchlight parade, Mr. Howe calied attention to the fact that the Burlington road had furnished the torches and that the Standard Oil company had sup- plied the oil. DISCHARGE OF YOUNG SMITH, The speaker took occasion to refer to the discharge of Andrew J. Smith from the Iron bank simply because the boy happened to hurrah for Judge Holcomb, He said that he i 6ot care whether the name of the presi- dent of the bank was Yates, Yatesey or Plck- wick, he had no right to blacken and defame the character of the young man by convey- ing the impression that he had committed some crime. The money of the bamks, Mr. Howe insisted, was the funds of the city of Omaha, the county of Douglas and the state of Nebraska, and while |t was loaned out at Interest, that fact did mot give any bank a right o hold a mortgage upon any man's citizenship. At this point Young Smith was called up- ou the platform, and was greeted with cheers and applause. He was introduced as the son of one of the most respectable laboring men in the city, ap employe in the Union Pacific one or roast the rporate rule water then referred 10 the history the Iaboring men were not menancing property, the iron bringing the He told of the inside history of of the strongest | ops, Continuing, Mr. Howe urged that no bank had the right to place the brand of Cain upon any young man for the sole reason that that young man might have political opinions of his own. This boy, the son of a poor, but honest mechanic, had been branded as a common eriminal for no worse offense than hurrahing for Judge Holcomb. If the young man had hurrahed for Majors, A man whose roputation was as black as the d—I, thers would have been nothing wrong “Now, gentlemen of the jury—(cheers and tumultuons applause)—no, not gentlemen of the jury, but gentlemen, tomorrow you will be called upon to sit upon a case and return your verdict. What shall it be, for an honest | man, or for one who is in with the ofl | roomers and the consort of boodlers? ‘Tt will be for Holcomb,' cried the vast audience. The meeting was brought to a cloe by short speeches from D. Clem Deaver and Dr. Ru dolf, both of whom briefly outlined their views, cofneiding with all that the speakers | preceding them had said L INSTRUMENT, NEW 1 stadimoter Designod 1o Discovor Distances from n Ship at Sew. WASHINGTON, Nov. 5.—An instrument that will enable a mariner to ascertain the moment a lighthouse or well known mark upon the sea coast is seen just how far his ship is distant from shore, that will inform the captain of a man-of-war how far away the ship may be from a vessel of his ow navy, and be of assistance in many other | respects where the clements of distance or | height are factors has been submitted to the Navy department for trial. The instrument is known as the stadimeter and is the inven- tion of Lieutenant Fiske, who ised the range finder. The stadimeter is much sim- pler in constructlon and operation than the range finder to which It may serve as an adjunct but cannot entirely replace, as at least one element, either helght or distance, must be known to operate it and find the other. | EX-PAYMASTER.
