NEBRASKA STATE JOUENAL, WEDNESDAY MORNING, APRIL 1910. HAVELOfA BY EIGHTY-FOUR Nfc SHOP TOWJf REGISTERS ITS PRO- TKST IX EARNEST. HEAVY VOTE WAS POLLED No-Saloon. Workers Were Overjoy- ed WUen It Became Apparent That Ther Had Won the Battle. The official count of the Havelock election yesterday showed a majority of 84 votes, for no-license.

The vote 8tod 336 to 252. The drys carried both, wards, the Second ward by "three votes. This ia the ward that was feared by the drys of Havelock "as it polled majority for the wets at the election last The First ward gave the majority of 81. This result in the First ward was an- nounced early as the judges there counted the votes on the proposed ordinance first, instead of taking the entire ticket as they went along. Thib at once threw all the interest about the Second ward and several dozen men crowded to the polling place to watch the result of the count When there was still some forty votes to be counted the drys began to do some mental calculating, and determined that the wets could not possibly make the necessary gain even though all the uncounted votes should go wet.

Soon a church bell began to toll. Others joined in. Boys began to shout and cheer on the street; and to cap the climax the giant Burlington shop'Whistle belched forth a deep and pro'onged roar. Crowds of laughing girls paraded the streets singing "Glory, glory, halle-lu-jah, Havelock has gone dry." Hiulcle Was Vic-tor. Samuel Hinkle, the democratic diclate for mayor, was elected by a majority of 59 over D.

A. Lucas, republican candidate. For councilman, First ward, Benjamin Hempel, democrat, 196; C. V. Lindstedt, 174.

For councilman, Second ward, P. C. Koll, republican, 122; James Jonas, demo- 5 crat, 108. For city clerk, Charles A. Currie, b5G, J.

A. Malstead, 248. City treasurer, P. L. Webster, republican, without opposition, 404.

For city engineer, O. W. Barnes, democrat, without opposition, 4fO. H. F.

Hecht and W. R. Johnson were elected to the school board and H. B. Little to fill vacancy The total vote-'cast in the city was Of this S7S were cast in the First ward and 238 in the Second.

The interest in the Havelock election was intense in The Journal phones rang continuously and even after The Journal whistle belched forth the "dry" signal in short, staccato blasts, people were more than ever interested. They wanted to know "how much?" The early returns gave a majority of 93, but this was later reduced to S4. When the Havelock result was announced at the city auditorium mass meeting the big audience went wild. Plenty ot "Workers Ont. sides had been thoroughly well organized to get the vote out.

The wets 'had the money, Ihe drys apparently had the sentiment. Four automobiles owned in the city of Havelooc were early on the scene bringing dry votes to the polls. Two machines hired In Lincoln were in service for the wets. The drys lined up behind the republican ticket, headed by D. A.

Lucas; the wets endorsed the administration of Mayor Hinkle- Both sides were confident of victory. At 3 o'clock in the afternoon with almost 500 votes already polled the drys were claiming victory by 50 to 75, The wets at the same time placed their victory at 10 to 25. Almost all interest which centered on the election of mayor and councilman was because of the plan of the wets to call another referendum election in case they lost this time. While they could not prevent another election they could influence it a great deal. D.

A. Lucas for mayor. C. V. Lindstedt for councilman in the First ward, and P.

C- Knoll for councilman in the Second ward were the dry candidates. The wets supported Samuel Hinkle for mayor, Benjamin Hemple and James Jonas for councilrnen. University riiice Vote.

UVDBR ATJTO. ADVERTiSEMLNT. TIME TO TRY POSLAM New Healing Aoent Promptly Disposes Fvsry Skin Affection. The time to try poslam lor eczema or any skin trouble is before experimenting with' anything else. Then, too, It is the least expensive way, because poslam will do the work, making treatment by other means unnecessary.

But no matter how many different things have failed, poslam should yet be used, for its healing properties are assured even in the most aggravated All doubt as to its action is removed in the promptness with which it begins its work, stopping the itching with very first application. Eczema, acne, tetter, salt rheum, psoriasis barber's and every form of itch yield to it readily and are permanently eradicated. In less serious-'akin affections, such as pimples, rash, herpes, blackheads Inflamed skin, results show over night, only a small quantity being re( quired.

Dandruff and eczema of the hid developed, which she treated with a simple solution made by dissolving 2 ounces of quintone in one- half pint hot water--let cool and add 2 ounces of alcohol. "The result of thf- treatment was that the eczema and dandruff wero (radicated, and apparently the hair follicles were revivified, for new hair appeared.
