ASKED what in his opinion caused
Leland to come out against him, Cover
nor Morrill, said that he did not know nor
did he care to venture q guess. He said,
however, that while there had never been
anything between them he felt for some

when the rupture came. Further than
this the Governor did not care to talk.
he left on a late train for his home in
Hiawatha to remain until Monday"
Those who think they understand the
situation assert that Sam Peters Of New
ton is to be the candidate who will re-
Ceive the support Of Boss Leland.
The Times correspondent discusses
the situation as follows:
"The question which will for while
puzzle the Republican mind is, who
is Cy for?' The majority OF the Repub-
licans Of this city who we're interviewed
expressed the belief that Leland would
support Peters. Leland's long friend
ship for Peters was cited in support Of
their faith, and the political advantage
Leland would gain in the Southwest by
making q Governor ia chat section was
also put in evidence. tt is argued by
some that the nomination OF Peters
would be a good move for the party,
The west has long been clamoEing for
something and the Governorship would
come in very nicely now, and might
assist the &. O. p. in reclaiming o lot Of
the brethren who have lately been voting
the Populist ticket.
"As to Governor Morrill,, the opinion
prevails that he will withdraw from the
race, Notwithstanding his declaration to
the contrary. The Governor has had
hard row to hoe. Nearly all OF the party
leaders excepting those who hold Office
are fighting him. The Anthonys, the
MurdOcks, the McCrays, the Hochs, The
Fslts and that crowd OF Republican
editors have been pouring hot shot into
him for year. He is tired out, and
many times he has admitted to personal
friends that he was ready to quit. It is
his pride which keeps him in the fight.
There are Indications that this particular
kind OF pride will give way and the Gov
ernor viii let the whole shooting match
60 in order to hunt rest and peace. How
ever, If he has the nerve to stand Tor his
rights and carry out his present lnten-
tions, he may DO able to win renomin-
tion in the face Of the opposition of the
party bosses"

"'I told the Governor week ago that
