LINCOLN, Neb., April 16. (Special Tele
gram.) The state committees of the demo
cratic, populist and free silver republican
parties tonight decided upon Lincoln nnd
July 11 ns tho place nnd tlmo for holding
tho stnto nominating conventions. An ear
lier convention was proposed, but ns tho
republican ticket will bo named on May 2
It was thought best to hold tho conven
tions on the dnto named. The suggestion
of the party leaders that tho offices to bo
filled this year be divided among the threo
parties of the fusion agreement by tho com
mittees was not octcd upon tonight.
Ever since tho democrats entered
tho fusion agreement they hove
entered tho fusion agreement they have
been dissatisfied with their allowance, which
has consisted of only one state olllce, that
of tho attorney general, nnd since the last
gubernatorial campaign they havo been lay
ing plans to secure a larger proportion of
tho stato ticket. Their efforts havo been
successful to n certain extent, and tho pop
ulists arc now disposed to double their al
lowance, giving them two offices or one In
addition to tho attorney generalship, which,
according to fusion traditions, belongs to
the democrats.
Tho first announcement of the plnn to
apportion tho state officers prior to the
fusion conventions met with considerable
fiiorablc comment, nnd It looked for awhile
ns though tho suggestion would bo followed
by tho committees. Tho democrats appeared
willing to accept two ofllces and yield tho
ethers to tho populists, with the exception of
tho nontenant governor, which will prob.i
bly go to the free silver party, nnd iih the
populists had already shown a disposition to
grant this much, about the only obstaclo
that stood In tho way of tho agreement was
tho difference of opinion ns to which office
should bo added to tho democratic end of
tho ticket. Somo of tho democrats favored
tho secretary of state, others tho state
treasurer, and still another clement of the
party, and by no means a small one, Insisted
on auditor.
Where Ilolronih Cuts In.
Whllo tho question wns being discussed
tho stato houso ring, which is composed of
both populists and democrats, formulated n
plan to give tho trcasurcrshlp to tho demo
crats and tho offlco of auditor to tho popu
lists. Judgo Holcomb was Instrumental In
bringing about this agreement, being actu
ated by two motives, one of which Is to
roward Edmlnstcn with a position, whilo the
other Is to defeat Judgo Howard of I'apll
llon, tho democratic candidate for auditor.
Stnco tho appointment of Leo Herdman as
clerk of the supremo court tho populists,
and especially Holcomb, have feared that
Edmlsten might causo considerable troublo
In tho fusion ranks, and It Is generally
agreed that bo should be given somo posi
tion to heal tho wound caused by tho ap
pointment. On tho other hand, It la re
membered that Edgar Howard is ono of
those who opposed Holcomb before and for
n short time after tho fusion conventions
last yenr. P. L. Hall, another popular cm
ocrat, who aspired to tho position of nudltor,
had already been pulled out of tho raco by
bis election as chairman of tho democratic
stato central committee, leaving Howard
and H. M. Boydston of Nebraska City; both
of whom aro Involved in factional lights, as
tho contestants for the nomination.
Edgar Howard has accused E, H. Lulk
hart of Madison county with originating the
scheme, nnd the latter, who is a candidate
for stato treasurer, says that Howard sug
gested the plan with a view to having tho
offlco of auditor added to tho democratic al
lowance. In connection llh tho fusion commltteo
meetings a ball was given by the Bryan
Homo Gunrdo In the auditorium this even
ing. About 1,000 tickets for this event wcro
sold.
Stnto Treasurer Mesorvo Ifsued a call for
warrants numbered from 65,571 to 56,010.

Dr. Sanden's Electric Belt
ON 30
For thirty years I have been
the confidential adviser of thou
ands of sufferers in all parts of the
world. I have devoted my life to
the careful study of Nervous De
bility and weaknesses of men and
women, from whatever cause. I
have made a life study of electro
therapeutic appliances and have
restored over a hundred thou
sand men and women to physical
strength and vigor with my world
renowned Dr. SAN DEN ELECTRIC BELT
The use of Galvanic Electricity,
Electric Suspensory for Men; with all Belts.
Why should suffering ones hesitate to try this cure by natural means ? a cure based on nature's laws. Of
course there are thousands who are as yet unacquainted with the value of my great discovery, and to these I
say I have decided for a time to allow my latest and most improved 1900 Model Belt to be taken on
THIRTY DAYS' TRIAL.
From this offer It Is apparent that I am sincere In what I state. I will cure where drugs have failed,
and It is my knowledge of this fact that warrants me in offering you my Belt on 30 Days' 1 rial. " It cures
while you iletp, and you pay when cured." Worn at night, It sends a pleasant, soothing current which you
feel through the entire weakened organs, the suspensory attachment to the belt resting directly over the
prostate gland. Write for my little book, mailed free, or call.
