Iho I'ollticnl Flld
The senttmont in favor nf placing a citizens
zens' ticket In the field this spring is rapidly
growing , nnd it Is now rognrded as abso
lutely certain that this will bo done The
generally expressed cholco for mayor to
head such a ticket Is A. C. Gr.ih.nn , nnd It is
conceded that ho is ono of thn strongest
men who could no nominated for that ofllco
Ho is very popular , both In his own party
and out of it , and that ho would glvo the
city a creditable and at the same lima satis
factory administration Is not to bo doubted
It is stated by some that his ofllco of county
supervisor would prevent his accepting that
of chief oxccutlvo of the city , but legal ad
vice is to the contrary
'iho Impression provntls that the nominco
ottho democratic party will bo Judge W. C.
James , although it is known that bo would
have anything but a picnic to bo elected
His nomination Is onuosei ) by n certain element -
ment of the democracy on account of certain
transactions of a few years ngo when ho
held tbo ofllco before It Is certain that
Jutncs would not uoll the full vote of his
party by n very considerable majority , nnd
those who oppose him nro positive that ho
could not bo elected over a man who was
party popular On the other hand , his sup
porters say tha Judge is a wbolo team by
himself wlion it comes to handling the
boys , " and nro equally certain that
ho would make a successful race
Inasmuch as ho has not figured prominently
In politics for some years , they asiurt that
the personal feeling ugnlnst him has died out
to a largo cxtont , and deny that his election
would be materially opposed by members of
his own p irty However ttie situation may
bo , ono thing is certain the Jud o is not
worrying ever it Ho declares that ho does
not want thn ofllco If the voters nro opposed
to Him If he is nominated , ha willcnnvinco
the opposing nominco that Ho nas a lljht on
his hands , whilH If ho Is not nominated , ho
will not feel very badly because ho was not
selected Ho is losing no sleep over , tbo
situation
These two nro the loading candidates by a
rery largo majority , nnd git is moro than
likely that they will bo the nominees unless
unforsccn complications nriso
Thu ofllco of tnnrshal is the bono of con
tention that is second in Importance Thcro
nro so many candidates for the ofhco that it
is difficult to toll which has thn advantage
The opinion is frequently udvauced that
Marshal Guanella will succeed , himself , and
there are vcrv good grounds on which to
base such a belief It is certain that Gua-
uclla is not workincr to secure the nomina
tion , and if ho sccuros it , it will bo because
tbo convention will bo unable
to ngree on any of the regular
candldutoj In which case he may bo sprung
us a dark horse Ho has already bold the
office for three tcrmB , and those who believe
in a fair division of the spoils think it time
that a new man should be allowed a pull at
the municipal nipple ,
It is reasonably certain that City { Auditor
Hammer , City Treasurer Spetman , City
Solicitor Holmes , Superintendent of Mar
kets Amy and Pollco Judge Aylesworth
will bo nominated for reelection on the
domocrntio ticket J , F. Brodbccu is equally
euro of the nomination for city ongincor
Tbo vacancies in the council will como infer
for a great deal of attention ; iu fact the
whole fight will bo to get the mayor and
council Ono republican nnd two 'donio-
ciatic members hold over and live now ones
nro to bo elected , 'iho democratic loaders
are working hard to make the council as
nearly solid in its political complexion as
bossiblo , but the fooling throughout tbo
wards seems to bo to send in good men regardless -
gardless of politics It is realized that tbo
present yonr will bo ono of great importance
to the city , and for this rouson the necessity
or electiug men who will work for the city's
interest rather than strict partisans is up
parent
In tbo First ward the democratic choice
lies between Vic Jennings and L. C. Ueslcy ,
Aldcrmnn Waterman figuring In the back
ground It is stated that Aldermen Wntor-
man und Laev have patched up a truce ,
whereby tbo luttor ceases to object to Wutor-
mans nomination L. A. Caspar la the
choice of the republicans , and m case bo is
nominated will make an interesting race
Ho is ouo of the most progressive men in
tbo city , and has all the requisites of a first
class uldorraan Should ho rccolvo the
nomination it Is admitted by the democrats
that tbo noxtulaorman from that ward would
bo a republican
In the Second ward the situation has not
narrowed down sufficiently to Ive any posi
tive indication of which way the wind is
blowing Tbo chances of A. C Harding
( lop ) as candldato for alderman from the
Sixth ward are very brilliant , but in the
Filth ward , on tto south sldo of Broadway ,
an overwhelming majority will Insure tbo
election of a democrat under almost any cir
cumstances
The Heal Estate Bxohance
There was a liberal attendance at tbo real
estate exchange mooting yesterday morning
J , G. Lemon , manager or the Christian
Homo , appourod before the oxehango and
stated that an Omaha man had ofTorod to
donate $1,500 to tbo homo provided an equal
sum could bo raised in this city The matter -
tor was taken under advisement and it was
decided to uppoinl three soliciting commit
tees at the mooting toaay to secure the
Council Hluffs contingent Mr , Lemon
stated that if this amount was ruisod bo felt
assured ho could ralso $3,000 moro In the
east , making a total of $ .1,000. This would
enable him to purcbaso the remainder of the
lots out on North Seventh street It was
suggested that it would bo advisable to ro-
uiovo the homo entirely from its present lo
cation and secure a tract farther from tbo

tos Dear Sir : I write you in ro tard to the
talk you made at Lincoln buforo the state
board ot horticulture about root grafting
As some parties understand you to bo op
posed to that system and in favor or whole
root or budded trees , and I know that you
do not wish to bo held in a ralso light , and it
did soeni that you did favor that system
from Tub Hbb , as there was no discussion
on the subject at that time Please give mo
your opinion on the matter , I am sura you
would not favor any system unless you
thought It was tbo best Kespoctfully
your3 , W. K. IlAHitis ,
NciiiusiiAOiTr , Jan 24 DearMr Harris ;
My intention at tbo roeotlng of the Nebraska
state bord or horticulture was merely to
draw uttoutlon to the fact that our apple
orchards were too shprt-llved and to inquire
whether root graft In ? was the causa of the
early decay or our orchards Modern orch
ards do not llvo as loug as the orchards of
earlier days of the republic lived lu the
eastern and middle states Hut I do not
wish to ba quoted as saying that root-graft
ing is a known cuuso of the early dccliuo of
our orchards These orchards have come
curlier Into prolific bearing than did the o of
Now York , Now England and Michigan
Possibly they are only another verification
of the old proverb ' Early ripe early rotten * *

Sunday the spy system which was In
troduced some time ago and which , it was
thought , had boon done nwny with , was
again nut into practice
Several of the men disguised themselves
In citizens clothing and paid visits to the
hotels Some of them were caught prowl
ing around on the upper doors and iu ono instance -
stance tbo man was ejected as a suspicious
character The object of these visits was to
endeavor to ascei tain whether or not liquor
was bolng sold In the hotels
What right , " asked a citlren who was
temporarily stopping at ono of the botels ,
have these men to enter this house They
have no more right to do so than they have
to enter my private homo They are fur
nished neither with search warrants nor
warrants for the arrest of any person As
a consequence they nro intruders nnd the
boldest kind of Intruders , and If they were
flung in the street , it would bo
Just as I would ticat them if they
cemo Into my house To all these
hotel men the license board gt anted
permission to run their bars as they had
previously been running them , namely to
soil liquors to their guests on Sunday Is
Seavoy above the license board Ho will
got his men into trouble ono ol these days
und tboy will not have tbo law to sustain
them either This thing ought to bo stopped "
Another ono or these spies , " as they were
termed , wandered Into ono of the hotels He
walked along all the corridorsuntll bo finully
attracted the attention of the help and the
landlord Tbo latter found him knocking ut
one of the doors and us iced him what ho
wanted
You nro not a guest or this house , " con
