[Genealib] ALE vs. consumer version of <ancestry.com> / follow-up

"consumer version" gives you everything you get for regular federal 
censuses--including images, but ALE only gives you the index citation 
from Ronald Vern Jackson's old printed indexes (that may not have been 
their source, but it matches the fields returned).

   I have to retract that statement. I haven't figured out yet exactly 
what I did which led me down a "no images" pathway, but it very clear 
now that the images ARE available on ALE for the 1890 Special Census of 
Union Veterans if you choose the "right" pathway.

   What's a day without a good mystery?
