Little Change Seen in
Political Situation
dFrom a staff Correspondent

G'rom a staff Correspondent
LINCOLN, Feb. 1S-(Special Another
week has gone by and there has been
little change in the political situation.
On the republican side the announcement
that the dry forces had united on Pol
lard and would ask McKelvie and MaEett
to withdraw. caused n little ripple and
brought out an emphatic announcement
from McKelvle that he was in IL TO stay.
On the democratic side the situation
remains the same. The advent OF
Bryan. Berge and Shields gives the dry
men chance to split the dry vote and
this has encouraged the wet ones to again
take courage in the hope that they can
defeat Mr.. Bryan for the nomination.
They do not seem to be imbued with
any idea that IL would be better to take
Berge as the lesser of the two. evils. but
would prefer 20 have a moist candidate
who could be depended upon.
Someone sprung the name OF Merton
l. Corey Of Clay Center last week as
the man upon whom the wet crowd could
unite with some show Of winning, but
somehow the boom. after sprouting, did
not continue TO grow. There Is some
hope that possibly the meeting of the
state committee I'm Omaha Saturday
might have resulted In finding the Moses,
but so far nothing has developed and
so it is expected that perhaps demo-
Gratis may conclude TO let Mr.. Bryan
have IL and then show him. how far he
viii get in the regular election.
