This paragraph appeared in tho

cess of suffrage, a man who knows
tho political stato of mind of Nebraska
about as well as It can be known says
that 'It Is hard to forecast tho general
because sentiment runs In such curi
ous streaks. In tho South Platto re
gion away from tho Missouri river
counties it is all for suffrage," ho
says. "From Omaha west on tho main
lino of tho Union Pacific there is op
position. In tho North Platte it is
mixed. The west seems to be favor
able. On tho whole thero Is so much
open sentiment In favor of suffrage
and' so llttlo effective opposition that
It seems entirely possible for the causo
to get the required number of votes."
