The Lincoln Journal de nounce it editorially "ruunlng up the black flag" and predict that If seriously Intended I foredoomed to failure. To checkmate any attempt at treachery to the party nominee It urge the pledging of every republican candidate for the legis lature not already on record "to dt with Norrls Brown in the last ditch rather than give up the office to a pirate." One of the men hanging around the re publican headquarters, discussing the Omaha pronunclaroonto, declared "the scheme la altogether too coarse and sprung too early to pan out. The letter of Teiaer. as printed, to my mind, shows the fine Italian hand of a. W. Wattles, but he ought to have been shrewd enough to keep hie name o'lt of It for the present until - the thing t aa ripe. To a person at thla distance It looks as If the whole Teiaer contests were set up for the purpose of forcing this alleged compromise In the In terest of someone who expecta to profit by the defeat of Norrla Brown, but It will not work. Nobody who haa a hand In auch a holdup tfttnie aa thla can ever get the necessary votes to make a legislative ma jority req' "4o elect a United States senator.
