Radical bull moose papers throughout the state, taking their cue from Lincoln sources, have been publishing articles tending to show that the regular republi cans at their committee meeting In Lin coln last week refused to accept the olive branch of peace offered by the bull moose aggregation. .The facts In the matter are that the olive branch of peace was not accepted for the simple reason that no olive branch of peace was offered by anybody. The meeting was not opposed to a deal tend ing to promote harmony. Alt the reg ular republicans of Nebraska are asking for a chance to vote for the man who is the regular nominee of the party for president The deal engineered by a few of the hot heads in the state convention would disfranchise every republican In the. state desiring to vote for resident Taft, and any "olive branch of peace" other than that kind would probably not be accepted.
