CURLEY MEN EXPRESS DOUBT
Even "Our Dare" Says He ii Hot Sara of

- the preliminary canvass for the repub
lican congressional primary, which la to
. b held next Saturday, already Is allowing
some Interesting: developments. The list
of delegates filed , promises ' active ' fights
for delegations In every ward In the city,
except the Second, Third and Sixth wards
and In every ward in South Omaha, except
ing the Sixth. In the country precincts
and In Sarpy and Washington counties the
delegatlona are practically uncontested
with few exceptions.
Under the pecullnr plan of operations
put Into effect by Tom Blackburn In his
capacity ns congressional committee with
a view to promoting the fortunes of his
pet candidate, W. F. Gurloy, the preferen
tial vote, which will be had In every pre
cinct, will go only so far as to bind the
delegates on the first ballot The hope of
Gurley's managers and backers Is that
the preferential vote will make the first
ballot fruitless and give them chance
to get In their work at manipulating the
delegates on the subsequent ballots,
"Everybody Interested In the congres
sional contest," declared a ontanelle club
man, "admits that the battle ground will
be In the Fourth and Ninth wards between
Ourley and Kennedy. Both live in the
Fourth ward, but Blackburn, who lives
In the Ninth, has taken the contract to
carry that ward for Ourley. I asked Dave
Mercer Saturday what he thought of the
situation and he said: 'I hope Ourley will
win, but I am not at all sure. I am doing
everything I can for him.' When Ourley's
closest friends talk this way, especially a
man of Dave's optimistic assurance, they
must . be having decidedly dismal forebod
ings." Inspection of the lists of filings fpr con
- gresslonal delegates shows that the old
lines of . machine and nntl-machlne have
been badly broken across, or rather that
' while the Ourley delegations are all made
up of radical antls, the Breen, Burbank
and, Kennedy delegations have pretty good
representatives of both machine and antt
macatne workers. The noticeable feature
of Kennedy's delegations is that they in
clude many representative business men
who have not usually taken active part
in political conventions. The endorsement
given to Kennedy by the Swedish repub
licans in their recent meeting also is re
flected in the largo sprinkling of Swedes
In his lists.
Congressman O. M. Hitchcock, who enjoys
the distinction of being the only democratic
,AmVkAw Ih. hniiM m lAtt-a.lr la tint
disguising his eagerness to have Ourley
win out. "Yes," said Mr. Hitchcock, In
response to a question put by personal
' friend. ,"I am using what lnfluenco I have
with the republicans In behalf of Ourley.
Do you blame met My only chance of
getting a fair assurance of success for re
election lies in the nomination by the re
publicans of a candidate distasteful to
his own party. If Ourley gets the nomina
tion I think I can be re-elected."
The federal building is filled with a Our
ley bunch, but that Is easily accounted for
. when it is known, that Senator Millard la
exerting himself to line up all the federal
officials subject to him for John N. Bald
win's candidate. The case of Postmaster
Palmer is amusing. When the last prima
ries were held Captain Palmer professed
to be for Ed Cornish out of personal re
gard for him, acquired during association
J . 1 l . l T1 1 ja T T ...
wilu u i in vn uiw rnrji uuitni. x ic gave i l
out that he had pledged himself to help
Cornish, at the same time expressing him
self privately that he doubted whether
Cornish could be elected, and that the man
who In- his opinion should be nominated
and would be sure of election was John I
Kennedy, but this was before Ourley pro
claimed his candidacy formally .and before,
also. Senator Millard Jumped lno the
breach for Ourley. Captain Palmer la now
for Ourley. . I
Of course. Senator Millard is not doing
all the work for Ourley personally. The
senatorial prestige Is being drawn upon
chiefly through his private secretary, J. B.
Haynea, who has been rounding up the
minor federal employes and telling them
that the senator wants Ourley nominated
and what they are expected, to do.

The council committee on Are, water and
