Omaha-At $50 the indications are
| that the state of Nebraska on the presi-
Dental ticket will be exceedingly close.
Seventy-three precincts outside Omaha
ard Lincoln give Mckinley 10,00S; Bryan
1902. Both candidates are making big
gains over the vote of 1894. The gains
are about equal. In the larger towns.
Mckinley leads Bryan and in the smaller
villages Bryan slightly leads. On the
! theory that Bryan will carry the farmer
| vote, the present situation is favorable
to him, since no returns of Importance
| have yet been received. Those rural
districts which have reported, however,
do not bear out the idea that the farm
ers are voting for Bryan. Ten rural
| precincts have reported, showing abou.
the same ratio which obtains in the
smaller towns Of the state. This means
Mckinley will carry Nebraska by y
small vote, though the silver men do
not concede this. Two years ago the
Populists and Democrats with fusion
elected a governor by 2.700 plurality.

! as the city has generally been Republi-
can by a considerable larger vote. Bry

auctions of former majorities.
