the object of the compilation made by Chair
man Edmisten to show the relative voting
strength of the populists. democrats and sill.
yer republicans polled for the combination
ticket at the last election. This
compilation was made by the pop
ulist state chairman last winter and was
prominently paraded by him at the recent
meeting of the democratic state committee
in this city. At the time it was stated that il
was merely a statistical curiosity intended
to show how the vote would stand IL the
three allied fusion parties had had three
separate tickets in the field. 1t is row
whispered about that Chairman Edmisten's
election table is part of a little scheme
which he thinks will do the work of land
ing himself at the head of the ~populist state
ticket without the aid or consent of any
other candidate.
The Edmisten scheme is simply one to
reduce the strength Of the Douglas and Ian
caster county delegations in the populist
state convention. For several years past
the apportionment of delegates has been
made on a basis OF the highest vote cast for
a populist candidate. Since fusion has been
in fashion this has made the apportionment
rest upon the aggregate vote without respect
to whether it was cast all or in part by pop
"i'S'o' uehhoSiats oT what not. Doug
las county has had a delegation
OF from 116 to 121 members, givine
1t practically a tenth of the entire conyen-
ton, and Lancaster county has come in with
half the strength Of Douglas. Mr.. Edmis-
tens plan Is to make the apportionment this
year according to his hypothetical table OF
populist vote. His table ascribes practi-
caliy all of the vote polled by populist can
didates in Douglas and Lancaster counties
to the democrats and would leave the pop
ulists for these counties practically without
representation in the convention.
Edmisten expects to get most of his sun
port from the country counties and realizes
his unpopularity in Douglas and Lancaster
counties which explains his anxiety tc
freeze these counties out.
While Chairman Edmisten has been care
tul to keep his ingenious scheme to him
self and a few friends it has nevertheless
leaked out among local Douglas county popu-
lists who are very much wrought up over the
impending attempt to disfranchise them in
the convention. The friends of the Doug
las county candidates. ID. Glenn Deaver and
John o.. Yeiser, say they will never submit
to any such high handed proceeding and
that they will insist on full representation

CORNELL HAS A COMPETITOR
State Auditors Road to denomination Not as
Smoo.h as Might Be,
WALSH OF RICHARDSON IS UP IN ARM:
Leader of the Popocratic Forecs
Heads n Schism from the Cornell
Crowd that Threatens to
swamp the Auditor,

LINCOLN, June 11.-(Special.) 1.-THE oppo-
sition to the denomination Of Auditor j. f.
Cornell has at last taken definite form, and
the first battle Is already raging in Richard
son county, the home of the auditor. The
democratic wing of the popocratic party of
that county has brought out a candidate
who will contest with Cornell for the dele
cations to the state convention. The new
candidate Is j. f. Walsh of Humboldt, who
has for a long time been the leader of the
democratic party in Richardson. He was
postmaster of Humboldt during Cleveland's
first term, and has since served as county
treasurer.
The friends Of Walsh say that this new
move is prompted by the fact that Cornell
is exceedingly unpopular, both at home and
over the state, and that he will surely be de-
feated If renominated. For this reason they
prlng out Walsh as a candidate, believing
that he will be able. not only to carry Rich
ardson county, but will be a strong man in
other counties. They profess to believe that
they have enough support pledged now to
defeat Cornell in the county convention.
walsh was In Lincoln a couple of DAYS
this week doing some quiet work among the
anti-Cornell popocrats Of Lancaster county,
ana went home feeling pleased with the re-
suit OF his trip. A plan of campaign was
arranged with local politicians and the
movement is gaining such Roadway that
Auditor Cornell is growing very uneasy.
cornelI's View of the Case.
The auditor was interviewed today. and
while admitting the possibility of defeat at
nome, ne SAID that Walsh Is chasing a rain
DOW lie reels sure that in case of a change
In that part OF the state ticket, the con-
vention Will not be so foolish as to go to
Richardson county for the new man, thus
ihVltlng dissension in the ranks of the
party in the home of the candidate.
The demand of the democrats of Richard
son county that Cornell be repudiated has
a strong meaning when the condition of
politics In the county Is taken into con-
sideration. Up to 1888 the republican and
democratic, parties of the county were
pretty evenly matched, with the balance a
little in the favor of the democrats. when the
alliance-pop party sprung up and collected
about 200 votes. After a year or two the
new party fused with the DEMOCRATS, but
stin the republicans held their own, sew
eral times carrying the county in spite of
this combination. This indicates that a
large proportion of the so-called populist
party In the county came from the ranks
OF the democrats. Cornell was formerly a
radical republican, and thus his hold Oh
the popocratic combination there is not a
strong one, while Walsh, the new candidate,
has full swing with the democratic wing
and has the friendship of a majority of the
populists.
In popular parlance, Richardson county
will have candidates to burn this year, as
G. w. Marsh of Falls City will be a can
didate for auditor before the republican
state convention.
