Hayward waa nominated for United States sena tor on tlio seconu ballot in tho republi can caucus tonight. 1 he members wore a little late in reaching the caucus room and up to the time of taking tho first ballot tho time wiih spent in singing and jollities there was that in the air which indi cated a termination of tho long strug glo. Tho first ballot was as follows: Adams, 1; Field, 11; Ilainer, 1; Hay wurd, 44: Lambertson, 2; Reese, 2 Wabater, ; Weston, 1; total, 71. Wt-lmler Wlthtlraw. Iho second ballet had proceeded part way when Senator Van Dusen of Douglas came to tho front and read the following communication: lo tho Republican Caucus: For fully a quarter of a century my time and services have been subject to the call of my fellow citizens of the re publican party. In my political life my only aim has been to maintain and advance tho principles of that party. sincerely believing that thereby could best promote the welfare o! the whole people. "This devotion to principle and party has brought to me the convic tion that the time has come when this long protracted senatorial contest should come to an end and a senator be elected to fill the vacancy now ex isting in the United States sonato. Coniplliueuts McKinley. "Every consideration, state and na tional, demands of us that we take spoedy and harmonious action. The administration of our noble president, William McKinley, to whom I am ' warmly attached, and to whose policy I am a devoted adherent, appeals to us to elect a United States senator with out further delay. My personal con victions and sense of political duty persuade me that individual ambition should not thwart the will of the peo ple to longer delay tho accomplish ment of your work. Hope of prefer ment is tempting and honorable, but if by stepping aside I can hasten the solution of your difficulties, I am will ing to make the sacrifice for the wel fare of the party, and its present suc cess. I will submit my political future to the good will of my feMow citizens, with the promise to them that I shall ever remain their faithful fellow serv ant. "I send you this communication without solicitation from any one and without any combination for or against anv of rav honorable rivals for this coveted hoajr, and I hereby release my faithful and loyal supporters from further obligations to mo. My request cf them i9 that they co-operate with vou in electing such person to the United States senate as in your united judgment will best serve tho party and the state. With kindly feelings to all and in a patriotic &pirit I remain, sin cerely yours, John L. Webster." Unanimous for Hayward. There were many cheer9 when this was finished and cries of "Hayward!" "Hayward!" When silence was re stored Paul Clark of Lancaster moved to make the nomination of Hayward unanimous. This carried with loud and continuous cheering. A committee was sent 10 notify Judge Hayward of his nomination. They returned, bringing the success ful candidate with them. Judge Hay ward thanked the members of the caucus for the honor they bestowed upon him and was especially grateful that they had made it unanimous. By way of advice he suggested that dur ing the remainder of the session the republican ' get closer together, so that they may accomplish more good than they have so far. Mr. Webster was called for, as were Mr. Field and Mr. Lambertson. They congratulated the caucus upon its selection, saying that Judge Hayward was the choice of five-sixths of the people of the 6tate. All references to the administration anJ President McKinley met with loud app'au-e. Mr. Lambertson dwelt especially n the loyalty of Peter .Ihii'o. who had -'proven a host in sirens lit if not in numbers, through every ballot. " The caucus adjourned to meet at thecllofthe chairman on motion of Clark of Lancaster. The arrmigements whereby Judge Hnyward was to receive enough out sino votes to insure his nomination was made during the afternoon. Pledges were secured from a number of members who had not heretofore supported the Otoe county man that they would oome to him in case their votes would assist in making the nomi nation sure. A meeting of these was appointed to be held at the Windsor hotel at 7 o'clock in the evening just before the time for calling tho caucus. At the meeting ten members as sembled. Among these were the Paw nee county member?, Thompson of Merrich, and other outside member?, and one from Douglas county, who also brought with him a pledge from another Douglas man to .-Und by the decision of the meeting Thesoten entered into :m agreement to nuppoi t Hayward and to as-int in making hi nomination on tho second billot. When tho news of the r;ult of the meeting was taken toother members several additional pledges were Mi cured. Tho Cage county members ex pressed their willingness to go to Hay ward on the second ballot. Tho Sa line county men wire ulno ready to fall in line and these votes had already been cast for Hayward on the .second bahot. but the reading cf the letter from Webster with-d rawing f:om the light and the carrying of Clark's motion to make tho nomination of Hayward unanimous made it unneces sary to count the votes.
