The acting county clerk Of Douglas county
has solved the ticket question to suit him
self. regardless Of the form laid down by
the secretary OF state, and according to his
plans there will be no difieulty in members
Of the democratic and peoples party voting
straight tickets, even though fusion has not
been perfected. This result has been Sc
cured by removing from the head OF the
ticket the brace which mould together the
two fusion parties. The nominations made
by the respective parties follow in the usual
manner. but a mark in the circle opposite
the word democratic will vote for only those
persons nominated by that party. while the
same rule will follow in the case OF the peo-
pies party. This change will affect only
the votes in the Third commissioner dis
trict. as in all other parts Of the county the
fusion Is complete.

county primaries continues to accumulate,
investigation showing that the casting Of
fraudulent votes was confined to no one
ward. In the Fifth ward r. NJ. Hotchkiss.
who has resided on Sherwood avenue for
several years, moved away about a year
ago. He voted on a certificate signed by
w S. Saunders and c. L. Saunders. W. A.
Saunders Saturday said that Mr.. Hotch-
kiss Is a ~janitor at Lincoln. where he has
resided for about a year. and to the best Of
his belief Hotchkiss has maintained his
residence at Omaha. The fact is that none
Of the family, so far as can be discovered,
live at the former address and he has no
interests in the ward. One popularity
about the Hotchkiss vote is that he received
two certificates from the city clerk. the one
signed by W. A. and c. L. Saunders and
another signed by r. NJ. Oney and NJ. F..
Sears. These two afidavits are on file with
the secretary of the county committee and
II is possible that both were used.
In the Eighth ward three men who we're
certified to by residents Of that ward as
being legal residents and voters OF the
Eighth cannot be found, either by postal
cards or personal investigation, and one Of
the men who signed af1davits on the day
Of the primary does not know them. These
men are w. F. Thompson and Robert Neale,
who gave as their residence IA North
Eighteenth street, and Robert Whitsley,
who said that he lived at SIS North Eight
zenith street. The afidavits in these cases
we're signed by James Allan, deputy United
States marshal, and Jacob Klein. who lives
on Cunning street near Twenty-seventh as
resident freeholders. When MIR. Klein was
asked as to these persons he said he did
not know them and so far as he knew had
never heard the names before.

Getting on

From the New York Commercial-Ad-
vertiser.
Charles Francis Adams admits that
the civil war had to be- that there
was no right or wrong about IT, II was
an inevitable. irrepressible conflict. q"
Coming from Boston and from a man
who is at frequent intervals an anti
imperlalist, this should be final. We
believe IL is also admitted in Boston
that the Mexican war was inevitable,
though the right and wrong OF it is
still a matter OF dispute.
How much time must elapse before
Il can be admitted" that a thing that
has happened was inevitable? Pre-
clsely what is the nature Of those things
which happen and which yet are not in
evitabe? Does the regulation OF the
universe every now and then get away
from the supreme power that controls
IL, and do things then happen that
were not intended. were not inevitable
from the very dawn of creation? And
when these inadyertent uninevitable
things have happened. can they be un-
done kept from going upon the record
OF the worlds progress by protesting
against them and refusing to admit
that they have happened?

BY THE HAGUE COURT

England and Germany and the other
European powers concerned, have
agreed to submit the questions be-
tween their respective governments
and Venezuela 10 The Hague Tribunal
for Arbitration. This is a triumph OF
diplomacy for the United States, and
adds lustre to the name Of John Hay.
In this matter the United States has
been vitality concerned, since the land
ing of European troops on American
soil under any circumstances means an
invasion, and a setting aside, tempo
rarily at least, OF our celebrated Mon
roe Doctrine. Yet we would not al
low ourselves to be forced into the
false position OF shielding a country
which refused to pay it's just debts,
and therefore. our position was most
delicate.
When then the powers asked Presi-
dent Roosevelt to act as arbitrator We
were put in a position where absolute
itluodl uiibhl nave put bui oWh AANci
ests in Jeopardy besides subjecting us
to the charge Of Indifference to the dis
tress OF a sister American republic. A
few of the public journals reluctantly
advised the President to accept the
trust, but the vast majority prgeo him
to refuse. He did neither, but urged
the reference of the matter to that tri-
bunal which had been created by all
the powers to decide just such ques-
tions. while at the same time allowing
1t to be understood that in the event
OF their refusal, he would accept the
task they sought to impose.
This placed the responsibility where
it belonged. 1t was for the European
powers to say whether they were will
ing to trust their claims to a grea
court which had been created by them
or TO refuse. They followed the logi,
OF the situation, and the President Il
relieved Of all responsibility happ,
issue out of the difficulty.

terrapin taken about September 10 will
exist ''prosperously" in dark cool
place, without food OF drink, until
April is. and. the dealers say, will
gain in the seven months two ounces in
weight. After so long Information it
gets lively and active, and will take
hold of the finger with great effusion. 3"
The cow bird is more priced than the
bull, and generally contains about
thirty eggs. No dish of terrapin is
thought complete without being gar-
nished with these.
Inasmuch as muskrats do not lay
eggs, it is necessary i'm garnishing a
dish of that bird" to use the embryonic
eggs of the common hen. Terrapin to-
day are selling at S75 a dozen. Musk
rats may be had for a song. Years
ago the diamond back" was caught in
shoals; today it is scarce and in danger

would pay large revenues. Those less

An interesting creature is the 'high-
land turtle" or box tortoise CT the
South. Down in Florida it is called
the gopher" When frightened it
shuts up its shell, so that no animal
can penetrate it. Coons sometimes get
their paws caught in the doors, and
good-by Mr.. Sly Coon l have tried fcL'
days to induce one of these box tor
toises to move. We used TO find the
birds" in the woods and lay them in
wagon roads for the wheels to TCil
over them. Tons have no effect. The
highly convex carapace will sustain
enormous weights without injury.
Farmers break the shells with axes and
feed the terrapin to hogs. The cnly
way to make box tortoise move along
is to build a fire on his back. You
might almost say. 'iheap Goals of fire
upon his head" Once well warmed
up he will open his shell and hustle.

The difficulty is a very real one. Of

there are 2.500.OO0 more unmarried
