Recent developments in Nebraska

Not only viii Mr.. Bryan make the

excellent. He viii have a united party

the slate viii be Bryan for the Senate
and Shallenberger for governor. The
latter now occupies the governors

Looks Good For Bryan.
It was announced a short time ago
that a number of Democratic politicians
IN Nebraska had urged Bryan to run
for the Senate. In the list OF those
present was the noted Jim" Dahlms n,
of Omaha. Dahlman is the champion
of the liquor element IN the Democratic
party and the fact that he is urging
bryan TO pun for the Senate means, it
is thought here. that the liquor element
in the Democratic organization in Ne
braska is willing TO stand with Bryan
on a county option plank.
II the Democrats unite on county
option, they viii have an advantage over
the Republicans who represent three
elements. In the first place. there are
the Prohfbitionists, with former Gov.
George /. Sheldon, at their head. Then
there are the local option supporters,

Burkett's Friends Busy.
The friends of Senator Burkett have
been casting about a good deal to find
out what Senatorial candidates are
likely TO develop on the Republican
side in opposition to Burkett. They
have Representative Norris under
suspicion. Also they believe that W
H Hayward, Republican State chair
man and secretary OF the Republican
national committee, has certain de-
signs on the toga.
What the Burkett people are trying
10 do is 10 get Sheldon out of the
