LINCOLN. April 11 (Special. Bryan

Hearst and anti-Hearst democrats. Parker
and anti-Parker. demoe rats, being convinced
that It will be impossible to get together
and fun on a atate ot-t after the national
convention at St.. Louis, are now talking
aoriouair tit bringing out that old veteran
war noma. Chief Juatk Holcomb, for
governor, it being believed that all hand
could agree oa him. Bo far tha matter ha
been kept entirely from tb Judge, It being
feared that upon getting aa Inkling of tha
thing they ara going to aak him to do, the
Judre wilt issue a peremptory writ of In-JuncUc-a
ta ptt a atop to It. It haa not
yet beea eetennlned whether the Judge will
be requested to resign from the bench to
make the race or rvn for governor and
atlll hold onto the bench In rase of emerg
ency. Just Ilka the republkana In tola dis
trict want Congressman Burkett to do.
The democrat are Just now learning that
the reorganise. If not 1n a majority In
the atate, are. at least the smartest poli
ticians of the various branches of that
much divided detnocratlo-populist party.
The reorganlsers wsnted to hold a stats
convention to nominate a atate ticket be
fore th nstlonal convention In order that
the tarty could 1 united on state affairs
even If It was divided on national affaira
The other sides would not hear to this and
the result Is that aa the breach In national
affairs widens tha breach In state affairs
grows cm spare. The result Is. as voiced
by a well-wishing democrat, that the party
will have the time of Its life in getting
together on state affairs. Ail this, this
man said, could have bee avoided had the
state convention been held first.
hat Oat Oaaaka Brick.
In the construction of the Norfolk aaylum
buildings Twin City brick will be used, the
State Board of Public Lands and Buildings
today having refused to change Its contract,
after listening to arguments from represen
tatives of both the Omaha brick and the
Twin City brick.
The board refused to use the Omaha bYlck
It inferior to the Twin City brick, but
causa Omaha's representatives failed to
get action and make proposals to the board
before the contract had bean let. After the
contract had been let and the Twin City
brick had been specified In the contract, a
representative of the Omaha brick called
upon tha board to make a change. At a
previous meeting the board refused tha re
quest. Tha Omaha men then got busier
than ever and brought all the pressure they
could to bear on the board members, but
to no affect, for the reason that the board
believed that If It changed this contract
It would establish a precedent that would
entail no end of changes In future con

new council at once aelected a temporary
chairman and began the transaction of
business, when some one recalled that It
was the duty of the old council to swear
In the members of the new. The new coun
cil then adjourned and the old council re
convened, reconsidered Its vote of adjourn
ment, swore In the new members and then
adjourned again.
Several lawyers stated that without look
ing the matter up they believed the old
council had no right to reconvene and the
acts of the new council could be seriously
questioned because the bonds of the new
members had not been approved by a legal
body.

OPPOSES THE VMIG OK SENATOR
Legislative Tickets Jeopardised by
Sock a Course.
HASTINGS. Neb., April 11 To the Editor
of The Bee: The proposition to name a
candidate for 1'nited States senator by
the state republican convention In May If
creating considerable thought over the
state. That thought Is: would It be po
litical wisdom to do it? I think not. The
republican vote should be Increased this
fall In this state, and it cannot be done In
that way. While 1 do not believe it best at
all to name a man by the convention, yet
If such a thing would occur. 1 would favor
the naming of a candidate from each con
gressional district, and the .man receiving
the highest number of votes over the state
should be the candidate. This would put
more vigor and vitality In the campaign. If
no one is named, then we can safely carry
the '.cgifOature and elect a good man. It
will not drive back some or so many as
pirants for the place where six candidates
are In the field.
1 do not think It wise io name anyone
for the reason It will make the legislative
ticket hard to ehct: and then. It would be
taking the delegated power from the sen
ate and houae of representatives, where It
belongs under the constitution. It is ::ot
the thing to try an experiment to satisfy
the ambition of a few leaders, and endanger
the Interest and i-jccess of the party. It
would do good to have expressions from
ever the state by :he best political thinkers
on this proposition before the conventions
meet. Yours truly. J. J. BUCHANAN.
