Bryan Petitions
Arc Numerous
Reagan Returns from Trip in the
State and Sees Many Being
Circulated. .
Chairman John E. Ucagan of tho Doug
lus county deinocratlo committee has re
turned from a week spent on legal busi
ness at Seward, York and Grand Island.
He said he found sentiment for Dahlman Is
growing.
"At York I met a man who is in charge
of the circulation of Bryan petitions In
that judicial district." said Mr. Ueagau.
"He Insisted they are going to make Mr.
Uiyan run for the senate, and I am con
vinced the result of tho petitions In circu
lation will be to put Bryan In the senatorial
race. It 18 Incomprehensible to me that
these petitions should be in circulation,
with at least the tacit consent of Mr.
Bryan's brother and manager unless an un
derstanding of some sort existed with
Bryan himself before hla departure for
Europe. On his return he will be presented
with a stack of petitions as high as a
table, with 25.000 or more names on them,
maybe 50,000, since I understand republicans
ore not barred from signing If they are
Bryan men. In my Judgment, those peti
tions, presented In that way, will settle
Mr. Bryan's candidacy. It does not seem
possible he will turn them down."

FEW BRICK IN SIGHT TO
' MEET THE SPECIFICATION
City Knglner Craig; Returns from
(ialeebarv, Where He Finds
Ferr Beings' Made.
Prosrects are pot bright for the com
pletion of much new brick pavement In
Omaha this year. City Engineer Craig, on
his return from Galesburg this morning,
said the Purlngton yards are not putting
out any great quantity of brick.
"Much of the brick on hand In the yards
does not come up to the Omaha specifica
tions," said Mr. Craig, "and would not be
accepted by this department. Very little
new brick Is being turned out, so far as
I could see, because of the strike that has
been on at the Purlngton yards for several
months. It Is not a question of wages,
apparently, but of open or closed shop, and
the proprietors are unquestionably having
difficulty In getting the men needed to
run their yards at anything like capacity.
"The existing slate ot things makes ll
sure that we will not permit the opening
of any more streets at this time, at least
not In the downtown districts."
