JOB OF WYOMING POLITICIANS
Making Arrangements to Create An
other JmdIcinl DistriCt.

CHEYENNE, Wyo, Aug. 19-(Special.)-
Politicians from the counties of Weston,
Crook, Johnson and Sheridan, in this state,
and lawyers throughout the entire state are
at present greatly interested in the question
as to whether or not an election shall be
held in November of this year in the judicial
district formed by the counties named for
the office Of district judge. The state con-
lican parties, at which nominations for dis
trict judges are usually made, this year
passed this question and no conventions for
the nomination will be called until some
| time in September, II they are ever called.
A plan has been adopted by both parties by
which the question is to be submitted to the
supreme court of the state in order to avoid
the expense of a campaign should that body
determine that an election should not be
held this year.
The plan adopted Is to have the secretary
of state, when he issues his election proc
lamation in September, refuse to call an
election for judge of the Fourth district and
then have some person interested commence
| mandamus proceedings to compel him to
call upon the people to choose a judge for
this district. This under the laws Of the
| state of Wyoming, may be brought in the
first instance in the supreme court and the
whole question can be determined in few
days and in plenty of time to have an cleo
tion called should the supreme court decide
that 1t is legal to do SO.

INVITE COCHRAN TO SPEAK
Will Come Under the Auspices Of the Sound
Money Democratic League.
LITTLE DOUBT OF HIS ACCEPTANCE
New Yorker Has Previously Indicated
n Desire to Address the People
of MIR. Brynn's Home
state.

Hon. Bourke Cochran, the great demo-
cratic champion OF sound money, will speak
in Omaha; that is, he will speak in Omaha
unless something interyenes to prevent the
completion of the arrangements which are
already under way When he comes, the
occasion will be made the political event
among sound money democrats, not only
in Nebraska, but also in the surrounding
states and the great New York orator will
give the keynote for the work of the sound
money democrats in this section Of the
country.
MIR. Cochran has already sgnifed his de-
sire to speak in Nebraska. A formal in
vitation is on the way to him from T. ].
Mahoney as president OF the Nebraska Dem
ocratic Sound Money league. and leaves the
time for the address dependent entirely
upon Mr.. Cockran's convenience. The local
democrats who have taken upon themselves
to arrange for this meeting however, have
no doubts that. Mr.. Cochran will be able
to name suitable day and are waiting
only for that information to finish the other
details.
There will be an important meeting of
sound money democrats at the Millard hotel
this evening. to discuss the situation
in Nebraska. 1t has been called by Chair
man Euclid Martin of the straight democratic
state committee and invitations have been
seul, Hot only 10 members OF the state COM
mittee, but also to other prominent sound
money democrats. AS the meeting will
probably decide upon the policy to be
pursued by the organization, q full attend
ance Is expected.
There are two principal questions before
the Nebraska sound money democrats. The
first is, What shall be their attitude to the
indianapolis convention and the third party
movement? On this there is some difference
of opinion, but the sentiment seems to be
overwhelmingly opposed to sending delega-
tion to indianapolis or participating in the
work of nominating third ticket On the
second question of putting a sound money
democratic state ticket in the field, the
sentiment Is said to be pretty much the
same The sound money democrats are
anxious only to defeat Bryan and free
silver, and to contribute to that end, are
ready to forego separate ticket of their
own.
The meeting at the Millard hotel will
also, probably, have the matter of Bourke
Cockran's visit brought before it, and will
doubtless join in urging him to accept the
invitation that has already been sent.

LIVELY NIGHT AT HEADQUARTERS
Three Political Meetings in Session Mt
the Snme Time

Three Political Meetings in Session mt
the Same Time.
Affairs took a lively aspect at the repub-
lican headquarters in the New York Life
building last night. There were not less
than three Mckinley clubs in session at
one time, representing as many different
nationalties. In the main auditorium the
Scandinavian Republican club held forth
with large attendance. Theodore johnson
presided, with J. A. Karling as secretary.
A committee composed of Gus Johnson and
j. A. Karling submitted a new constitution
and bylaws, which after considerable dis
cussion was adopted by unanimous vote.
1t was decided to elect an executive COM
mittee, composed of two members from
each ward in the city the men to be Sc
lected by the president. This plan was
thought the most feasible in collecting to-
gether the Scandinavians of the city, whose
residences are widely scattered The club
Is in excellent condition and by the next
meeting 1t is expected to present a roster
of 200 members.
The Swedish-American Republican club
occupied one of the ante rooms of the head
quarters and their business was confined
entirely to the question of joining forces
with the Swedish Republican Garfield club.
John Steel, president of the club acted as
chairman with Edward Christy as secretary.
The proposition at first met with opposition
by many present. Short speeches were
made by the president, p e. Flodman, A.
w. Ericsson, Carl Johnson and others. The
motion to join forces with the Garfield club
was at length passed by a large majority,
the combined clubs to bear the name of the
Swedish Republican Garfield club of Omaha.
Resolutions of thanks were passed to John
Steel, the retiring president, for the efficient
services rendered and also to p. q. Flodman,
who formerly held the same office. Thanks
were also extended to Mr.. Flodman for the
gratuitous use of his hall during past
sessions of the club.
The Colored Central Mckinley and Hobart
club held a short meeting in another of the
ante rooms. NJ F, Singleton acted as
chairman, with A. f. Pummer as secretary.
Speeches were made by A. F. Judson of
California, George II. Collins, N. B. Wash

over sixty members, and is in hourishing
