tfRou THE rrE's LINCOLN BUREAU. /

Lean county committee of Lancaster
county meets mt the Office of Chairman
l}illingsly, and the work of mapping out
the campaign will be done on short no
tico. "On Monday next" said the chair
man, "thc campaign will be naugurated
in the different precincts" and from that
time on every stump on the prairie and
every schoolhouse in the timber VIII be
the location of some statesman who will
float among the republican constituency
of Lancaster. 1t is understood that it
will be a schoolhouse campaign, and
in Chairman Billingslys northwest
vest pocket is little pass
book in which he notes the
names of those who are willing to fight
the battles of their country. The prohlb.
ltionlsts are already at work, and close
campaign Is promised on their part, al
though thus far their labor seems to be
confined to the channels of claiming half
of the republican vote in each precinct
and securing subscribers, cash in ad.
vance, for their hungry if not healthy
official organ. The other party, the
democracy, with their ticket endorsed
and added TO by the labor unions with
two vacant places yet to be filled, have
not yet promulgated their plans, and the
leaders are evidently waiting to draw in
spration and courage from their state
convention at Hastings this week before
letting loose the dogs of war In this
connection it is proper to state that
GENERAL MONTGOMERY,
formerly a resident of this city, now
of Albion, Boone county, is talked of as
a candidate for governor on the state
democratic ticket, and il Is understood
that the Lancaster delegation will have
solid vote in keeping for him. The gen
eral was police judge of the city Of Lin
coin for term, and republicans here
think he would be as good man as any
to be put up and scratched for General
Thayer.
