PAVING Bids Are Held un.

The letting of paving contract for
Norfolk avenue has been delayed.
Out of the numerous contractors who
were in the city, but two filed their
bids with the city council last evening,
although two others were seated in
the council chamber. The bids were
not filed until a late hour, and the
general sentiment was that there was
not enough competition.
The council, upon recommendation
of the delegation of business men, APP
pointed Councilmen Coleman and Do
lin and City Engineer Tracy to visit
other cities to ascertain the amount
expended for similar paving. Two
business men will probably go with
this committee on their trip Of investi.
cation. 1t was thought the two bids
filed with the council were too high
and the meeting was adjourned until
Friday night.
The bid filed by the Katz Craig com.
pany of Omaha, providing for a stone
base foundation with burlington brick,
amounted to $2.34 per square yard;
for gravel base, $2.29.
NJ. Ford's contractor of Omaha bid
$23S per square yard for a crushed
stone base, Purington brick; gravel
base, $2.35.

MOVE AGAINST BRYAN.

Lincoln, June 2S.-Following the
setback administered to w. ]. Bryan's
leadership of the democratic party in
Nebraska by the refusal of Governor
Shallenberger to call an extra session
of the legislature, rumors are afioat
that the launching of a state demo-
cratic club at Columbus is intended
by some of the prime movers to fur
nish the means for enabling the anti.
Bryan element to seize full control of
the party organization.
Several of Bryan's supporters scent
plan of this kind and will endeavor
to prevent its cOnsummation. The
Bryan men will be represented at the
Columbus meeting to watch things and
If the scheme if attempted to prevent
it
The situation confronting the Ne.
braska democracy brings a reminder
of the dual organization two years
ago, when the state committee and
the Bryan volunteers furnished a dou-
bleheader campaign. T. S. Allen, the
brother-in-law of Mr.. Bryan, was then
chairman of the committee and looked
after the interests of the presidential
candidate, while Chris Guenther and
Arthur Mullen, working through the
volunteers, managed affairs for Gov
ernor Shallenberger. This year the
Shallenberger force dominate the COM
mittee and if the new state democratic
club also falls into their hands it will
give Bryan an uphill fight to main
tain his present standing as the head
OF his party in this state.
The contest in the democratic ranks
has been precipitated chiefly by Bry-
ans espousal of county option, which
large majority of the leading poll
ticians in the party do not want. So
long as he confined his attention to
national issues and left state politics
to be handled by those directly in
terested, they were willing he should
remain the titular chieftain in Nebras.
ka, but when he came out for state
reform antagonized by the brewers
they began to think it was time to put
him on the shelf, This is the meaning
of several developments, as noninter-
ested observers interpret them.

Light Crop Near Gordon.

Gordon, Neb., June Especial to

crops in this part of the state. Sman
grain will not yield much more than
half a crop. Prairie hay will be light,
Alfalfa will yield fairly well.
