LINCOLN, July 4-(Special. did the
committee on conference which two
weeks ago met in Lincoln TO consider the
proposition OF whether the organization
of the populist party in this state really
represent the membership of that party?
OF course, there were ]. II. Gosvenor OF
Aurora, chairman, and A. T.. Walrath of
osceola, secretary of the party. present,
but outside OF these two there did not
seem to be very many real populists
present, Judging by the representation
from Lincoln, who have persistently reg
istered as democrats.
There were present at that meeting,
besides the two mentioned above, T. II.
Tibbles, Omaha; DR.. Steel, Hastings;
Lucien Stebbins, North Platte; e. c.
Cowan Clay Center; ]. F. Roberts, JOY;
]. H.. Miller, Hastings, and the following
from Lincoln: A. E. Sheldon, Frank
Eager. Thomas Sinclair. John Gilligsn
and c. Q. De France.
How POpuIists Register.
The registration lists of the city OF
Lincoln show that A. e. Sheldon IL a
republican, Frank Eager registers as a
democrat, Thomas Sinclair, the old
Boone county populst, registers in Lin
coin as a democrat; John Gilligan, the
right-hand bower of George w. Berge,
democratic candidate for the nomination
for governor, meets with the committee
as a populist, but registers from the
Seventh ward as a democrat. De France
is not registered.
The committee appointed to perfect
plans for the reunion banquet in Omaha,
in addition to the above, contains the
name of Silas A. Holcomb the once popu-
list governor of Nebraska. Governor Hol-
comb is not on the registration lists OF
the city of Lincoln, but he was appointed
to his present position as one of the
members of the board of control as q
democrat, the statutes providing that the
board should consist of one from the
minority party and two from the major
ity, so 1t is evident that the ex-governor
has renounced the populist religion.
In an address to the committee A. e
Sheldon. who registers from Precinct c
OF the Sixth ward of Lincoln as a repub-
lican, said that he wanted a continuation
of the populist party, as neither Of the
old parties could be trusted. He was
made chairman of the reunion commit
tee.
Eager IL Democrat.
Frank Eager, another member of the
conference, who registers from Precinct
b of the Fifth ward of Lincoln as a
democrat, thought that the populist or
ganization ough to be kept alive at least
another year.
Thomas Sinclair, the Boone county pop
ulist, with hay in his hair and brush
broom chin beard said that the old par
ties neither of them were worth blan-
kety blank blank, Yet Mr.. Sinclair reg
Seventh ward as a democrat
The question therefore naturally arises
is the the populist party in the hands OF
its friends or dominated by its enemies.
If Sheldon is a republican, and Eager.
Sinclair Gilligan and Holcomb are demo-
Gratis. wherefore is the whichness of the
whyness?

Main street. It required nearly two
hours work on the part of the IRE de-

After having worked on the flre for
