The German Republican club of Douglas county held a business meeting In Oer- mania hall Thursday night to arrange for "Bryan carried Cheyenne county by sixty six votes four years ago, but tho most con servative poll wo could make this fall gives McKlnlcy 100," said W. P. Miles of Bldney, Nob., to the stato republican officials yes terday. Mr. Miles has made a thorough canvass of tho western part of the state and finds tho other counties, clear to the Wyoming line, not disposed to quarrel with their bread uud butter. "As to the legislative ticket, Senator Owens hn? n right to count on n majority of 130 and John B. Evans ou twlco that number for tho legislature, ns be does not have the populist county of Dawson to contend with. Evans is popular as the former commander of tho Grand Army of tho Republic and from his record as deputy secretary of slate. Above all personal con siderations, however, the stockmen of west ern Nebraska will voto tho republican ticket for the reason that whereas a cow formerly brought 120 it now brings $10. "Sonutor Thurston spoko this week to tho largest audlcncu ever gathered in Sidney and made a visibly good effect. The next day we Introduced him to our gatno pr serves on tho prnlrles nnd tho senator shot an eighty-pound nntclopo and twenty ducks, besides a curious owl, which he will havo stuffed." "I lived iu tho same town with It. J. Black, who claims to have extracted that amazing prophecy from Cleveland, and knew him well for eight years," said J. U Watson ut republican headquarters yes terday. "Ulack win a baker for sovoral Dint. years and worked lu a shop at Vln ton, la., until a ttnvellng phrenologist came to town and Dlnck attached himself to tho performance. Whether ho over studied phrenology or not he was bound to succeed because of his Ideul qualities us a fakir. lie was flighty nnd erratic, nnd was not considered altogether sound mentally, As to his self-assurance It wan beyond all bounds. I never knew of his doing news paper works phrenology was the only bead- work he ever engngod in, nnd I think thlft fictitious Interview was his first Invasion Into tho realms of literature. Dlark's brother, n doctor In Vinton, committed sul cldo several years ago " Information cumo to the state republican headquarters yesterday of a falso Ira prcsslon which tho Clrand Island Reiub- Mean hns endeavored to create In the ast Tho title "Itepubllcan ' Is said to be a mis nomer, as tho paper has simply' paraded under that name for n year while support ing fuslonlat doctrines. Tho editorial man agoment telegrnphed Theodore. Hoosevclt this week thot ifter tho Intolerable utter ances mndo by him In Grand Island It could no longer support tho republican ticket Tho republican commlttco learns that the, Republican was owned and operated by Scth Mobley until he secured an appoint ment In tho Philippines, when a subeditor took charge Tho paper was then leased by tho Fodrea brothers, who turned It over last fall to thu Augustlucs, proprietors of the Free Press, a democratic sheet. In splto of its, name It has been operated, the republican commlttco Is Informed, br a fu slonlat paper, and Its alleged flop was elm ply a trick suggested to tho management by Us anomalous title. "Gage county Is as stalwart a bulwark of republicanism as over," remarked E. B, McCorklo of Beatrice this morning. "W gavo MdKlnlcy n majority of 000 four years ago, and this tlrao wo will do a hundred or two bettor. The farmers havo thel granaries full nnd henped over this fall and every ono of them who has douo his part will come In for n better profit than most of you city people." Information came to the state republican noaaquarters this morning of a false tm presslon which the Grand Island Repub Mean has endeavored to create In the east Tho title "Republican" Is said to bo a mis nomer, as tho paper has simply paraded unuer that name for a year while support tng fualonlst doctrines. The editorial man agomont telegraphed Governor Hoosevclt this week that nl'tor the Intolerable utter nuccs made by him lu Qrand Island It could no longer support the rcnubllcau ticket The republican committee learns that the Republican was owned and operated by aetn Moniey until he secured nn appoint - ment in tho Philippines. Tho paper was mon leased by tho Fodrcas, father and tw sons, who continued the publication until January 6, l0, when tho paper was bus penaed for business reasons. Augustine nrotnors, proprietors of tho Freu Press. populist sheet, seized upon the opportunity to start a fusion dally, appropriating tho name of tho Dally Republican. After the nppenranco of the first number of their sheet, tho Augustine brothers wcro urged by tho fusion manugers, nmong them W. II. Thompson, J. W. Kdgerton and II. A. Kdwnrds. to clnngo tho misleading tltlo to ono appropriate to Its politics. This they promised to do, but have never ro deemed their promise. Its -alleged flop on account of Governor Roosovelt's utter ancen wbb simply a petty trick to mislead nou-realdcuts of Grand Island. PI.AX FOll l,AST IIRMO.VHTIIATION. DIM.

"A fuutory or a work shop will give a comparatively correct Idea ot popular opinion, politically," observed Mr. Connolly. "Some of tho democrnts havo found comfort In polling the btreet cars and discovering a majority for Bryan among the passengers. It's an easy matter to take a street car coming from a demo cratic meeting and to find a few Bryan men In the group.
