HARTMAN LIKELY
TO BE CANDIDATE
Food Commissioner is Considering
Entering the Race for
Governor.
TALK MOREHEAD FOR SENATOR
CFrom STAFF Correspondent

CF,rom a Staff Correspondent
LINCOLN. Feb. 7.-(Special. 1.-THE fun
that democrats have Seen making over
the fact that the republicans had a
superabundance of candidates for the
nomination for governor may be turned
in their direction at the rate filings are
comBnE in.
The last week three candidates grew
where none had grown before and this
week there are indications of more. Those
interested in the already complicated sit
uation in that party are interested in the
rumor that petitions are out for Food
Commissioner Hartman for the nominal
ton.
Mr.. Hartman would say very little, but
admitted that one petition in his behalf
had already reached his office. 1t has
long been known that the food commits
sioner would like to be governor of Ne
braska, but as the present primary dis
franchises the poor man. unless he can
find someone to back him with sufficient
dough to make It interesting. Hartman
says he has been steering clear OF the
proposition. But those petitions look
good TO him, and as Hartman has some
pretty well-to-do friends he might be able
to find the backing.
More MOrehead Petitions.
Petitions for Governor Morehead to
enter the race for the United States SEN
ate continue to pour into the executive
offices with a well assorted supply OF
personal letters urging the governor to
get into the race. In the present chaotic
condition of things SENATORIAL in the
democratic party a whole lot of people
are still Of the opinion that the governor
will get In before the time comes to
close up the filing mill
Mayor Bryan. Edgar Howard and Ig-
natlus Dunn of Omaha were in conference
here the latter part of last week and 1t
is expected that there may be some de-
velopnnents from that meeting soon 1t
is we'll known that Bryan and Howard
have been urging Dunn to get into the
senatorship race. but whether they have
been able to convince that gentleman that
the time Is propitious just now is not
known.
Governor IL Feared.
It is pretty well understood that both
the Bryan and Hitchcock factions fear
the popularity Of the governor should he
shy his hat into the ring and caution is
the watchword at this time until the eff
feet Of those petitions on the governor
has been determined.
However it makes little difference what
the outcome will be. the country is going
to be saved, anyhow, for Felix Newton
filed today for the state legislature and
so an interesting campaign is assured.
Mr.. Newton likes neither Bryan. Hitch
cock or Morehead, and when he gets into
the campaign all of these gentlemen might
as well take to the woods.
