To the Citizens Of 5tonewall Road
District.


District.
Mr.. EDITOR The communication Of
ex-Road Commissioner Slum in lust
weeks issue when compared with the
statement of the clerk of the Road Board
and the county Treasurer. which l wish
you to publish in connection with this
article, proves either that he knew moth
ing about the business which he was elect
ed to attend to or that he wilfully falsi-
fed the facts when he stated that Stone
wall District was only fifty dollars in
debt when he went ont of Office July LIST,
1891. The statement of the County Treas
urer and the clerk of the Road Board
made IN writing over their signatures
shows an indebtedness of Sl35 63 as of
July 1st. 1891. This statement does not
include raid claims, aegregating at least
Sl75 more. for work and material FUN ished
during Mr.. Saum's administration, which
had not been audited July lat, bnt which
are now in the hands Of the Commissioner
and Road Master. l ask the people to
add these amounts and decide for them
selves who is knowingly making false
statements.
In conclusion: The roads of Stonewall
District were in worse condition July lst,
1891, than they were at the same time of
, any year within the last six years. Add
to this Mr.. Saum's statements. and the
mind of every thinking man will suggest
a good school or a committee as the prop
er thing for Mr.. Sanm.

the Democratic candidate: William Mckinley.
Jr.. the Republican candidate: John Seitz. the
Peoples candidate. and John J. Ashenhurst.
the Prohibition candidate.
The outlook Is not easy to determine. The
opposition to Gov. Campbell in his own party
WAS so pronounced before his nomination
that Republicans had no thought of the posi-
bility OF his success and they placed Mckin-
ley's majority at from 10000 inward. But as

cratic Committee said last night:
THE battle Is too close at hand TO make any
specific predictions. but II We are not going to
have one Of our old-time Democratic victories
this year then all ante signs are mis-
leading. When Gov. Hill was here last week
there was some figuring done by experienced
hands in the organization and Mr.. Flowers
majority was placed at not less than 5000
That it will exceed these figures is the
best judgment OF men who have been over tho
field and are not siven to indn s IN ex-
peet that Mr. Boody will run i almost neck and
neck with tho candidate for Governor and that
we vii! carry two OF the three Senatorial and
everything is in fine shape all along the line

with the utmost confidence.

NEBRASKA POLITICS.
The Only State In Which the Denocrats
Have No Ticket In the Field.

LINCOLN. Neb.. Nov. 2.-Only a Supreme
Judge and regents Of the university are to be
elected In this State. but the election excites
great interest because it is to determine
whether the Farmers Alliance or Independent
party is to gain political supremacy in Ne
braska- In one respect Nebraska this year
presents a strange situation. The Democratic
party Is without candidates. and is allowing
the State to 60 by default This is all tho
more remarkable when it is remem-
bored that but one year ago their can
didate boyd was elected Governor OF the

ent action of tho Democratic party Is due to
the refusal of their nominee for Supreme
Judge TO make the race. whereupon, their
candidates for regents were alike Withdrawn.

All parties admit that the contest between
the Republicans and Farmers or Independent

BALTIMORE, Nov 2.-Every elective officer In

likely to be in before Thursday. Democrats
and Republicans however. admit that enough
will be known on Tuesday evening to Indicate
clearly the result.
All men Of all parties concede the election OF
Frank Brown tDemocrat) for Governor. The

THE POLLS IN IOWA.
Temperance, tho TarIn and the Silver Cues.
lions Are tho Issues.

DEs MoINEs Ia. Nov "a full State ticket
is to be elected in Iowa this year. and four
political parties have candidates in the field.
Horace Boies. the present incumbent is the
Democratic candidate for Governor. Hiram C.
Wheeler the Republican candidate. A. ]. West
fall the Peoples candidate. and Isaac T. Glib
son the Prohibition candidate.
The three issues have been the temperance
tarin. and silver questions.
The result Of tO-morrow's election is difIl-
cult to predict. because Of the inter-Ininglins
OF state and national issues and tho many dis
paign. The Republicans arc divided on the
prohibition question. tho Democrats are d.
yided on tho silver question. so that on the
at all tcnaciously drawn. The Democrats
have naturally striyen to make the tarifl ques-
tion the paramount issue. while the Repub-
licass. hoping to absorb the greater part Of the
prohibition vote. have kept the liquor Ques-
lion well In the foreground.
