County Clerk Haverly characterized proceeding as an outrage and an insult “It was simply a desperate attempt to in |thmidate me into an arrangement that would operate to the benefit of a lot of d gruntled democratic politiclans.

Canvass Will Be Made Oper to holding the canvass openly, it bas always been my practice to have any body present who cared to be there. In proof of the assertion, here are the notices which I sent to the chairmen of tho diffe ent committees, including all the demo- cratic orgunizations. The men who pro- cured the order of court know perfectly well that the count would be carried for ward with all possible fairness to both sides. There was only one condition that 1 protested against, and that is the prese ence and bulldozing tactics of many pror. |lnent men in the democratic party, w¥o have loafed around the rooms whero the work of receiving the votes has been going on and abused everybody in charge of the work for no other reason than that the re turns were going against them, and they | wanted to find means to stem the tide ot | deteat. “Gllbert M.

He threatened to have mo sent to the penitentiary. It was easy to see that the sole object of the abuse was in- timidation. I declared that no more scenes of this kind will be tolerated when the count is officially commenced. This is the | statement which they have falsified to mean that everybody would be excluded from the room.* The fact that the count is to be conducted in tho presence of all who had right to be on hand 1s indicated by the notifications | sent by the county clerk to everybody in- terested, democrats as well as republicans. Following is a copy of cne of the letters which was sent to E. E. Howell of the democratic central committee: “You are hereby notified that the offictal canvass of the vots of Douglus county at the election on at 1:30 o'clock be present. today. D.

Fustonists Object to Deaver, After the canvassing board had reported for duty the fusion managers would not b satisficd with the position taken by County Clerk Haverly, but protested the appoint- men of D. he was not a disinterested clector. Major W. S. Strawn, the attorney for the county | clerk, was present and was asked for his opinion of the matter. Before he could reply the fustonists were at him. Young Mr. Hitcheock suggested that he take evi- dence to show whether or not Deaver was a disinterested elector. Attorney Meclutosh offered to produce evidence to show that Deaver was not disinterested. Then Major Strawn advised the clerk to accept such proof, and in a minute there was an in- formal court of inquiry organized with Major Strawn as officiating magistrate, When Mclntosh was called upon to pro- duce his proof he pulled from his pocket a copy of the True Populist, a newspaper pub- lshed by Deaver, and began to read an article in which the editor denounced th fpsionlsts. This he maintained was evi- dence to prove that the canvassing office was not disinterested. From time to time as he read Gilbert Hitchcock would take a hand o the proceedings to mark a strong point in the article. The republicans pres- ent submitted the proposition that if every man who had expressed a sentiment in favor of one of the balf dozen tickets in the field Was to be barred from the board because he was interested the clerk would have a hard time to find qua ified men in Doug as county | In the meantime the droniug of Mclntosh's voica could heard reading a letter in which Deaver bad refused to lend a man in the western part of the state $10 or to fur- nish him with a railroad pass Deaver Stuys Boara. Major Strawn asked the fusionlsts 1f that was all the evidence they had to submit and Wwas told that they were waiting for wit- nesses, but who the witnesses were or what they were to prove they did not say. Then the lawyer turned to the editor of the fusion paper and asked him a few qu. lons which were answered about like this “Is Deaver a voter of Douglas county?™* “Yeu' “Was Deaver a candidate at the recent election?'" “Has Deaver been promised a place under any of the candidates who were voted for at the last election in Douglas county?" “Not to my kuowledge.” “Then,” sald the major, “I am certain that In the contemplation of the law he is & qualified elector to canvass the vote, and 1 advise my client to appoint him if he de- sires to do so."” This ended the matter and the canvass proceeded COUNTRY IS EVENLY DIVIDED Oficial Returns Canvassed by the Board Largely Substantiute Unofiicial Returns, to be The canvassing board met in the county clerk's ofice at 1 o'clock yesterday and will continue in session until the full vote cast by the county is gone over In detail The figures so far arrived at vary but little from the unofficlal tabulations.
