pledged themselves to renewed effort for

Following tha department work during
the Institute hour the convention listened
to an adddreea by Rev. J. A. Crowther of

"Opportunity." Ttev. Mr. Crowther ex

Sheriff A. J. Gracefof Avoca, tha candi
date of the east end of th county, . and
the candidate who received the largest
number of votes at the primary, although
not sufficient to .secure him the nomina

Sheriff Qroneweg, who secured the nexl
largest, vote, was the leading candidate
of the-several aspirants for the nomination
In tha city. Mr. Oronewcs also showed
considerable strength in several of the
county precincts. His supporters contend
that ha Is the logical candidate and should
receive the nomlnstion without any ques
tionnow that Mr. Oface I no longer In
the field. All of the other pity candidate,
however, are atlll in the ring, and will
have more., or less of a following In the

Politics in Nebraska
promise to be at a boiling
pointthroughoutthis year.
The Bee's special staff
correspondent at Lincoln
furnishes the political gos
sip generated at the state
capital and special atten
tion is givfen to politics
locally by experienced
political writers.
Politics in Iowa are
sure to turn about the con
test for the senatorial suc
cession as well as about
the presidency. A special
staff correspondent at
Des Moines is charged
with keeping readers of
the Bee in touch with all
the politica currents oi
the Hawkeye state.
WASHINGTON
National politics center largely in the national
capitol where the president and his advisers are at
the helm of the government and where congress is
in session. The political focal point is at the seat of
government where a staff correspondent of ThevBee
is on the lookout for everything of keen interest to
people of this section of the west.
I CHICAGO and DENVER
The Bee will have its own representatives on the
spot at both of the big nominating conventions and
readers of The Bee will get the best inside informa
tion of what isdone by the president makers and
how it.is done. r , :'
