lenberger, $1,000"
Omaha, Aug. 1S.-Aldrich claims
the state by 10000 over Cady. Cady,
while practically conceding Aldrich's
nomination, does not give out any fig
ures.
Dahlman claims the state by 5000.
Shallenberger claims the state by
1900
Figures received by the Bee and
tabulated for 1872 precincts on the vote
cast at the primary election on Tues
day show the following totals on gov
ernor:
Aldrich, 1862; Cady, 1884; Dahl
man 1925; Shallenberger, 14,112.
Aldrich runs well in the state and
cut down the big lead that was given
Cady in Douglas county. He will prob
ably be nominated, but the final fig
ures will not show widespread diff
ference between the winner and the
loser.
DahIman Seems Safe.
Dahlman went out of Douglas with
a big lead, which he increased in Ian
caster, and the Shallenberger pre-.
cincts have not been sufficiently nu.
merous to reduce Dahlman very much.
At the rate returns are showing Dahl
man is safely ahead.
Burkett Is running far ahead OF
Whedon and the others for the en-
dorsement for United States senator
by the republicans, and Hitchcock
left Reed and Metcalfe far in the rear
in the race on the democratic side
for the same position.
From David City last night Mr.. Aid
rich sent word that he had returns
which convinced him he would have
10000 majority over Cady for the re-
publican nomination for governor.
Over the long distance telephone from
st. Paul. Mr. Cady said he was salts
fed with the way the figures were
coming in. He made no claims.
Governor Shallenberger gave at Lin
coin a statement that he had figures
from enough precincts to overcome
Dahlman's lead in the big counties,
and that he would be named for gov
ernor by at least 1900.
Late last night Chairman Flynn OF
the Dahlman club said he had received
information which assured the Omaha
mayor Of the democratic nomination:
"Our information from men we have
had reports from in various counties
leads me to claim Dahlman's nomina-
ton by S,000," said Mr.. Flynn.
Figures received and tabulated
here are favorable to the mayor, even
in localities where we did not expect
much. and at the present rate the
mayor will have at least the majority
have named"
Chairman Flynn did not have his
figures in shape to give out, he said
but insisted the mayor would come to
Douglas county with between 900
and 5000 votes.
The Congressional Races.
In the First district William Hay
ward defeated Tobey for the nomina
ton for congress, even carrying To
bey's home county, Lancaster. Con
gresham B. A. MCGUIRE had no op
position for denomination on the demo
cratic ticket in the First. In the Sec
ond the republicans nominate judge
A. L. Sutton and the democrats nomi
nate C. o. Lobeck. In the Third thu
race between ]. F. Boyd and l.. G
Brian for the republican nomination
has apparently been determined il
favor of Boyd. Congressman Jane
p. Latta was renominated without OF
position In the Fourth, c. II. Sloan
republican, was named without oppc
sition, while the democratic contest
close between Bailey and Good. o.
the democrat side Sutherland has
lead over Harmon in the Fifth wher
Congressman Norris was renominate
without opposition. In the Sixth col
tests are being fought on both side
and the returns from there are yer
meager, but it is indicated that Col
gresham NJ. P. Kinkaid will be II
nominated by the republicans.
