Representative Strobe of Nebraska who
called recently at republican headquarters
said: THE republicans OF Nebraska are
making substantial gains. and will
tinue to do so until the close of the cam
paign. The money question has heretofore
been discussed from the free silver stand
point only. The people of the state are
rapidly informing themselves with refer
ence to the money question, and the repub-
licans are making rapid gain, by reason of
this information. The electoral vote of
Nebraska will be carried by the repubi-
cans by substantial majority. Had the
election occurred within three or four
weeks after the Chicago convention, the
Bryan electors would probably have car
ried the state by ten or fifteen thousand
majority. The fusionists are much dis
satisfied over the tail-end of their ticket
IL Sewal is forced from the ticket. as
many seem to think he will be. l am of
the opinion that il will benefit the republi-
can chances in Nebraska. There are many
free silver democrats who are not in favor
of making II possible for a pronounced
populist to become President of the United
States. Many of the advocates of free
silver are also protectionists, and may for
bear their desires to see free silver pre-
vail for the sake of restoring protective
tariff
