the home Kelley cure, and it IS en-
deavoring to show that the inmates

Post. chairman of the republican state
committee Of Nebraska. stating that
despite the local Bryan sentiment the
state was sure to roll UP majority for

The nomination OF Pingree for gov

though the prevailing impression was
that Pingree would hold the votes OF a
considerable element which otherwise
would have gone to Bryan.
At the populist headquarters satls-

pressed his purpose OF supporting Bry-

tion has been extended to Watson to
