(From a Btalt Correspondent.)
LINCOLN, April 6. (Special.) After a
campaign ao aparhetlc aa to be commented
upon, both the republicans and the fuslon
Ista claim the city election, to oe held
Tuesday. Chairman -Morris of the repub
lican city central committee ! confident o(
victory. McOuire of the democratic city
central committee said: "We are going to
win this election."
The claims of the fuslonista are gen
erally lakcin to be simply In the nature of
a whistle to keep up courage. Lincoln Is
afely republican and no opposing candi
date can expect to be successful unless he
baa weak man against blm. It la con
ceded on all sides that the present re
publican candidate for mayor Is above the
atandard and sure of election, although It
ia baroly possible one or two of his asso
ciates on the ticket may fall by the way.
side.
The Issue Is the same aa that upon which
the republican primaries were fought, a
high or low saloon license. G. A. Adama,
the republican candidate for mayor, stands
Committed to the present $1,500 license;
Wolfe and Hosklns, the republican candi
dates for membership on the excise board,
are not so definitely committed, having Is
sued no platform. The party la standing
on its record for an economic and buslness
llko administration.
The fuslonista bsve erected a platform
which, after denouncing "duplicity and all
efforts to deceive and that man cannot
serve Ood and mammon," declares for a
11,500 license; municipal ownership of
lighting plant; adequate supervision and
Inspection of gaa and electric meters;
favoring -the granting of franchise on
equitable terms to telephone companies
pledged to glvo reasonable rates and ade
quate service. This is quite a departure
for the democrats, who constitute the back
bone of the fusion combine, bave always
catered to the liberal element, ao It Is no
wonder people look on their platform as
made merely to catch votes.
Municipal Leags ' Interested.
While the republicans and the fusionlsts
have made no show of any Interest in the
contest, work baa been quietly done by
the Municipal league, a reaction from the
republican primaries against the saloon
men and the frtenda of a low license. This
organization has worked under cover so
that it Is' Impossible .to say just what it
has done.. On its membership roll it has I
800, two-thirds of whom; It Is said by the
chairman, are republican's.' In view of the
fact that the republican majority in Lin
coln is only about 1,200, the fusionlsts ex
pect the Municipal league to land aeveral
of the fuaion candidates In city offices. The
league may issue a statement tomorrow
telling what 'candidates it recommends.
From this it Is aeen that the only fight
has been and wtll be centered on the ex
else board. T. J. Hensley, on the fusion
ticket, and Thomas Hoskins, on the re
publican ticket, candidates for membership
on the excise board are both members of
the Central Labor union and owing to this
the labor vote will probably be divided.
Hensley stock went up considerably yes
tarday when it became rumored, abroad that
the Burlington brakemen were Tor htm and
oppoaed to Hosklns.
. - Another raetor In FJsrnt. -
Another factor , that Is catling pomp, ice
In 4hia campaign Is wh.;wlll p the next
chief of police and the chief r of the. fire
department. "The Municipal league Is In
favor of retaining the present h-gadi; of
tfcese departments and It is charge! that If
the republican excise ticket Is elected Cblet
Hoagland at least will have to go.
' Fights are being made in the Second,
Third and Sixth wards on councilman. In
the Second the county machine is trying to
land William Lawlor over the league and
the fusion candidate, Jacob H. North. The
latter expects to get many republican votes
that were cast tor Wlnnett tor the repub
lican nomination for mayor. The same will
be true of the Third and Sixth wards, where
the regular republican nominees are J. W.
Hensel and Callln Thompson, and the fu
sion candidates are Ernest Hoppe and
Henry Gund. The fuslonista claim they will
land in these wards. Very little fight Is be
ing made on the other city candidates and
the republicans will be elected by the
usual majorities.

the Regulars Total of Three
Crelghton Team Tries
Today.
Yesterday was a bad day for Tap Hill's
children. ' The weather was not Inviting
and only a small number of the fans were
out to watch the Originals even up for their
whipping of the day before. And the way
they made up after Companion began to do
the slab stunts was enough to bring tears
to the eyes of a cigar store Indian. Ever
since the third Inning they had been be
hind and then they landed In tbe eighth
and dragged In a nice easy margin.
Waller of the Originals was the first man
up and he drove Mr. Schaffstall's curve
out against the left field fence and took
three bags for his effort. Bradford sent
the ball to Do an and was thrown out at
first. Then Whitney picked out a nice
curve and knocked It out to Weldy, who
gathered It In but could not get It In time
to stop Waller from scoring. Saffelder fol
lowed with a warm one to the pitcher and
was thrown out at first and tbe first halt
of the Inning was over.
Then It Got Good.
In the last half of the third after one
man had gone out, Gooding swatted the
ball with his crutch for two bases. Schaff
stall drove the, ball to Saffelder, who fum
bled it and Gondlng went to third. Carter
flew out and Weldy ran on third strike.
which got by O'Keefe. O'Kecfe gathered
It up quickly and threw wildly to first
and when the smoke of battle cleared away
Gondlng and Schaffstall had scored and
Weldy was resting on third. Then Wright
singled snd Weldy came In. Wright tried to
stretch his hit and was caught out at sec
ond. This was the last of the scoring for
Papa Bill's boys ss they never could bunch
their hits at the right time after that.
Oalaspt supplanted Schaffstall In the box
In the sixth inning and for two innings
the speedy boy from Humphrey kept them
guessing and shut them out.
Companion Goes In.
Then Papa Bill erred and placed Com
panion In the box and the Originals begau
to do things. Waller took a reef in the
ball for two bases and stole third while
Bradford was striking out. Whitney singled
and Waller came home. Saffelder and
Welch each singled and then Taylor drove
the ball to Stewart who threw him out at
first. Meanwhile Whitney was coming and
Wright threw to Fullmer to cut him off.
When they were through passing the ball
around all three runners were boms.
At tbe beginning of the ninth Fullmer
fumbled the third strike and let Bradford
get to first and be came home on two
singles and a long fly.
Of the five new men tried yesterday
Schaffstall's work Indicates an ability that
will probably make him a favorite pf the
fans, before the season is very old. . Full

troubled with stage fright. -

Chances In Land Office.
As a result of the action of congress at
Its lest eeanlon some fifty clerks In the
general land office on April 1 received de
served promotions through the infusion of
new blood in the form of the appointment
of twenty-seven additional clerks. Whlls
this addition cf twenty-seven clerks d'd not
permit of promotions for all of the 116
comprising the office force of Commissioner
W. A. Richards of . Wyoming. thos who
were not' promoted will be compensated
In a measure by the lessening of their la
bors through the introduction of the extr.i
help. The twenty-seven 4dltlonal clerks
were drawn from the regular civil service
rolls, and tbey will at once be assigned to
their new positions and gradually broken
in. The work of the general land office,
because of a shortage of clerical force. Is
somewhat tn arrears, snd congress after
repeated appeals st Isst came to the rel et
of the commissioner and voted to increase
the clerkships accordingly.
