The Republicans Trying to
Carry Nebraska.
FIGHTING GREAT ODDS,
1t Looks FOrlOrn Hope But the Re-
publicans. Will Make Extra EffOrS
to Defeat the Silverites in Nebras-
ka to Give Bryan Black Eye.

WASHINGTON,O October Although
the election in Nebraska this year is
only for the judge of supreme court,
yet or eat interest ia manifested in the
re suit by the administration and it's
hackers. Could the republicans secure
a victory, even in this apparently off
year, it would be source of intense
satisfaction to the president, cabinet
and national chairman, Mark Hanna
IN particular. Nebraska being the
home of Bryan, that gentlemen would
get blackeye. There is a complete
fusion between democrats, populists
and silver republicans iu Nebraska.
The republican are running;a straight
ticket and the gold democrats have
put out a ticket, their prominent no.
minee being Hon. J. Sterling Morton.
The best posted men believe the gold
democrats will not poll over 5000 votes
in Nebraska, hence they will cut no
figure. Leading republicans do not
hesitate to say that if the repu blicans
can win, Hanna and the president will
be delighted. They regard Bryan as
the most dangerous man the party has
and defeat in his own state is wanted
badly. Senator Thurston assured Han
na that with the proper exertiOn Ne
braska can be redeemed, but friends of
Mr.. Bryan think he is watching the
opposition closely, and the republicans
will not catch his party mapping.
