SUPPORT THE NOMINEE.
The Citizens Party Has an Excellent
Chance.

Inc citizens Party Has an Excellent
Chance.
If the Citizens party adherents go to
the polls tomorrow and vote for their
ticket, straight, the returns tomorrow
night will show a glorious victory tor
them. Nothing is required but the full
vote of the party in al wards.
Reports from the Fifth ward to-day are
of the most encouraging character. If ali
the voters of the CiJizens party stand by
their colors here, nothing can take victory
from them.
Citizens party victory in the FIRST
ward would be seven-daSs wonder. Many
! people scout the idea chat such resul0 ts
within the circle of baresJ possibilities,
| yet several men who have been engaged
! in active political work there during the
| past week say that the chances tor
Democratic overthrow are so good thai
some are counting upon such Il result.
The Third ward seems to be one
Of the hottest battle grounds, aud
| it is here where the Intelligent clJi.
zens should assert themselves TO-
morrow and throw down the men who
are stabbing the regular Citizens nominee
for Council in the back. An eleventh
hour circular signed Citizens and Tax
payers" has been issued in behalf of the
Democratic nominee, Henry Hoehler. 1t
is one of the best arguments that could
be made in favor of the election of David
r. James, the Citizens candidate.
1--WE don't want men in Coun.
Gil who are bound to party and
factions the circular says. The fact
is that this man Hoehler has never been
in politics before. That is most cheerfully
conceded. At the same time 1t is like
wise fact that he would not be a candl-
date to-day If he were not pushed forward
as a tool. The direct power behind this
throne comes from relative of
the candidate, who is and always
has been a leading spirit in the gas,
electric light and other corporations Of
the borough and who sees, if he can make
the Borough Council, chance at no dis
tRnt date to become the superintendent
or some other leading spirit of the public
water works. This man was making q
personal canvass for Mr.. Hoehler in the
Third ward to day, although he said not
long ago in answer to communication
published in the HERALD that he had no
interest in Hoehler's candidacy or elec.
tion. Beware of the loud-mouthed advo-
Gates of the peoples interests. 'We don't
want men in Council who are bound to
selt-interest, or the interests Of their rela-
tives" should be the cry in the Third ward
tomorrow. Let every voter of the Citi-
zen's party stand by his party's nominee
tomorrow and steer clear of the men who
are always identified with corporate inter.
ests,

Honesty.

Alton, son of Charles Blaker, the driver
employed by the Columbia Hose Com
pany, found on Main street Saturday
afternoon an envelope containing S22 o.
The boy turned the money over to bis
father who found the owner after trouble
and made him happy man. He was a
miner and the money represented his
earnings. Such action as Mr. Blaker and
his son displayed in this case is highly
commendable.

ED. HERALD some disgruutled mug.
wumps in she Third ward are out i'm
circular appealing to the citizens, ire.
specJive of party, TO vote for Henry
Hoehler for Council aud thereby turn
down David r. James, the REGULAR CITI.
zENs nominee. Citizens and Taxpayers'
confess that the Indebtedness Of the
town has been increased enormously dur
ing the past few years by the very parties
that, therefore, they are the only people
who can bring the largest revenue to tn
borough out of their transactions I'll
people of the Third ward think otherwise
They looked over the field for man whom
they could place on the Citizens ticket
without insulting the nou-partisau
voters of the ward. Was it not strange
that if Henry Hoehler was so accept
able to the people that he was not nomi-
mated at the Citizens primaries If,
later on, they believed him so
non partisan, why was he not run in
dependently instead of being paraded be
fore the people of Shenandoah with the
collar of the Democracy about his neck /?
He could not possibly have secured the
nomination in the Democratic convention,
but the bosses secured permission from
the convention to place in nomination a
good Democrat if they found one, and
they claim to have found one in Henry
Hoehler. When the honest Democratic
voters go to the polls on Tues
day and look down the Demo-
cratic column and see the name of
Henry Hoehler, watch how quickly they
will resent the insult attempted to be
perpetrated upon them, by voting the
Citizens ticket straight. Mark what the
circular says I'VE know Henry Hoehler
to possess all the qualifications needed at
this time" Only "at this time p' Not
at any other time. According to the
circular, Hoehler is not fit for Council at
all times, but just now, when the thugs
and political assassins of the peoples
rights are in their death throes and desire
to escnpe political oblivion. They shout
out ANY port in a storm" and you can
depend upon it that anyone wear
ing the political collar of these
people can with safety be turned down.
The people are tired and want new blood,
and young progressive blood, in their
Council, 1t was for this reason they
nominated David r. James. Mr. Lamb
was unfortunate in having for mis- close
friends the very people who now seek TO
hav HCphlcr elected. 1t was defeat for
the thugs, not for Mr.. Lamb, and that
gentleman can retain the good will and
respect of his townsmen by now cutting
loose from the political dead beats whose
friendship cost him the nomination, and
turning his energies towards the election
of the Citizens ticket as a whole W.
appeal to the citizens of the Third ware
to support David r. James for Council
He will be the representative of tn,
whole people, not of the ward heeleri
or bosses, and, besides, he possesses tht
qualifications AT ALL TINES to represent
the people intelligently, honestly and
faithfully regardless of party, creed or
nationality; caring for nothing but that
which will be for the best interests of the
people of Shenandoah as a whole. Vote
for David r. James for Council, and our
word for it our town will be benefited by
his election. MANY CITIZENS.

HARRY HAYWARD.
A Young Lady StenOgrapher Who Knows
Things She Cannot ell in COurt--Iho
Effort to Impeach BlixfS Evidence
Doctors Give Opinions

MINNEAPOLIS, MINI, February 16.-
The defense in the Hayward murder
trial came up smiling to-day after the
staggering blow dealt 1t Yesterday by
Liveryman Wilson'S evidence. The
reason for the smiles lay in the conf
dence that the first with ess this morn
ing would completely shatter the evil
dence of Claus A. Blixt by her
testimony. But there was slight slip
in the calculations of Mr.. Erwin that
prevented for the time the full fruition
of his hopes. The witness was Miss
Maggie Wachter. who is the stenogra-
pher Of Blixt's attorney. On the day
before Christmas the attorney took her
into Blixts cell for the purpose OF
taking down a statement from the
prisoner. No one else was present at
the time and she took down such words
as the attorney directed. Erwin then
read from statement imputed to
BliKt. saying that he and Adry Hay
ward had planned the murder and had
gone out to Lake Calhoun to arrange
the details the week before. He asked
Miss Wachtsr if Blxt had made the
statement that he had just read TO his
attorney.
BEFORE SHE COULD ANSWER
the State interposed an objection on the
ground that whatever statement had
been made by Blixt TO his attorney was
inviolable under the State statute. The
Court finally ruled that under the cir
cumstances the evidence was inadmiss
bic, but gave the defense until Monday
20 produce authorities which may
change his opinion. So Miss Wachter
was dismissed and the skull on which
the wounds of Miss Cling were illustra-
ted was sent for.
Three physicians were put on the
stand ov the defense and were asked
hypothetical questions bearing on the
question of the fracture OF the skull.
DR.. c. II. Norred
THOUGHT IT HIGHLY IMPROBABLE
that the double fracture had been
caused from the fall from the buggy, as
explained by Blixt DR.. Hance thought
it next 10 impossible.
DR.. d. C. Myers said be bad long
army experience, but he had never
known OF case where 4 fall Of three
feet like the one described had pro-
duced such fractures on the skull.
Court then adjourned until Monday
morning.

appropriation bill concluded its labor
to-day and sent the bill TO
the public printer, in order to
have il ready for the full com
mttee, which will meet at 10 o'clock

full committee, will contain an amend
ment providing for the issuance Of time
certificates OF indebtedness to the
amount of 500, 600, 600 to draw three
per cent interest, and 10 run for
three years II is distinct
ly understood that these are
to be used only for the purpose of meet
ing the treasury deficit, and are not to
be OF a character to be used as bank
reserves. There is some difference OF
opinion in the full committee as
20 whether the Secretary of the
Treasury has sufficiently indicated that
the certificates are needed, but there is
very little doubt that the fuli committee
will accept the recommendation OF the
sub committee. II is bsieved that the
full committee will dispose Of the bill
at one sitting.
