republican majority of not less than $500:
that Mercer in the second district, will re-
ceive a majority Of not less than 1900;
that j. ]. Mccarthy, in the third district
will receive a majority over John s. Robin
son. fusionist incumbent, of not less than
600; that E. H. Hinshaw, republican nomi-
nee in the fourth district. will overturn the
200 votes necessary to redeem that district
TO the republican column: that Judge w
r.. Norris has a good fighting chance to
change the 1I5 votes necessary to bring
that district back into the republican fold;
while Moses P. Kinkead. the republican
nominee in the big sixth district. which
covers territory equal in area to any of the
smaller eastern states, has but 105 votes to
change from the vote of two years ago in
order to become eligible to a seat In Con-
gress. All reports from his district are
highly encouraging from the republican
standpoint. H. c. Lindsey chairman of the
republican state committee, says that he is
perfectly confident that the sixth district
Will go republican.

The true inwardness of the fight on Mer-
Ger Is not properly understood abroad. 1t
was originated and has been maintained in
large measure by Edward Rosewater. re-
publican. and his newspaper. Mr. MERGERS
friends charge that Rosewater started the
fight on him because Mercer went to Lin
coin year ago last winter and asked some
Of the legislators to vote for him for United
States senator after the legislative delega-
ton from Omaha had been pledged to
Rosewater. who sought to be elected to the
United States Senate. MERGERS friends al
lege that this fight on Mercer is a personal
and not political matter, and for this rea-
at the primaries Mercer was triumph
antly renominated and the Rosewater oppo-
sition was trampled into the earth. Mer-
GERS great strength lies in the business
community. He swept every ward domi
mated by reputable republicans. He lost
two lower wards whose suffrages have long
been commodity on the election day mar
ket and are usually democratic. Rose
water bolted the ticket and Is doing his ut
most to defeat Mercer and nearly every
issue Of his paper denounces MERGERS can
didacy There is, however, no opposition to
Mercer outside of the Rosewater following,
and, while 1t Is possible that this faction
may lose for Mercer a number Of votes,
there Is no basis for the belief that Mercer
at any time has been in danger.
