IT is expected to open the Democratic
city campaign about April IL. This
date was decided on at meeting OF
the candidates and the committee last
night. An enthusiastic meeting OF the
city executive committee and the can
didates was held at the headquarters
in the Globe building. Nearly every
man on the whole executive committee
and all the candidates were present
and there was a full and fair discus
sion of plans for the opening and
prosecution of q campaign that every
body has reason to believe will result
in a sweeping Democratic victory all
along the line! The spirit displayed
and the reports received combined to
produce a. feeling Of confidence in the
meeting that nothing could stop the
Irresistible sweep of the city by the
Democratic Nominees and the tri-
umphant return of Mayor Smith ana
every man on the ticket below him.
Arrangements were MADE Tor Sc
ries Of big meetings in the wards, and
1t is probable that the first one OF these
gatherings will. be held April IL. The
general plan is to group the ward
meetings SO that speakers may go
from one ward to another on the same
night, and a thorough canvass of the
city will be made in this way at the
least expenditure of effort. :
The ward cflairnnen We're. designated
a committee on halls and speakers,
and they will cooperate with the ex-
ecutive committee in arranging Tor
meetings. It is purposed to make
specially thorough canvass OF the
Eighth ward and a number OF preclnct
meetings will. be held IN that olstrlct:

Just now the line in the county is
being run this way and the crew is

the Omaha about a mile and a half
and it seems to be the intention to
open up new country rather than
touch any of the farming towns or
summer resorts along the line of the
Omaha. 1t will cross the Omaha at
Gordon and run from there over to
Ladysmith, the survey between those
pleted while a line has been run from
Ladysmith southeast sixty miles.
The railroad people have started to
get options along the three-lot line
between. Winter and Broadway and are
paying no attention to the Omaha line,
being ready to take that, however, if
the property owners get the land so
that it will come within a price set
by the railroad interests. It is con-
fdently expected that the road will
put it's terminals in here.
