DAHD05 KEEPS POT BOHING tmrterr Faller ( Eseeetlve Office Dcalea Gaveraer Ever Pledgee Nebraska ta HnamK Km' IVtltlaa r'eaaa Irregelar. From a Staff Correspondent.) LINCOLN. Xeb., Feb. l.-( Special. -The filings of democratic candidates for the presidency are brine. ck to the surface some of the trouble! of that party. W. J.- Bryan end those who have always trained with him are generally credited with favoring TVoodrow Wilson, but at the same time Speaker Champ Clark of Missouri also has a lien on the favor of the three-time candidate. Bryan himself !a la the attitude of "How happy I could be with either. If the other dear charmer iere away.' lie has postponed making any public declaration of bis preference, evidently "In the hope that lime would bring some soiutlon of the embarrassing' rltualioB, but the situation stubbornly re fused to go into solution. In spite of Bryan's dictum against Harmon the Ohio man's friends have filed his name to fro on the primary bal lot, and there Is no disguising the fact 'that It la giving them considerable worry. Mayor I'ahlniaji of Omaha and John Maker of Lincoln are the recognised heads of the Harmon movement tn Ne braska and past experience demonstrates they are strong enough tot mske the Bryan following lots of trouble, even If hey do not carry the state against his visiles. Wdrlib Gove o I'lrdae. U B. Kulier, private secretary to Gov ernor Aldrlch. lu the absence of the gov ernor today makes positive denial that Governor AMrlch sent any telegram to Uovemor Stubbs of Kansas pledging the vote of Nebraska to Roosevelt 1n case the latter was a candidate before the re publican convention. Mr. Fuller asserts ha handles all the governor's letters ami telegrams and that he knows no such letter or telegram was ever sent. F. N. Merwln of Beaver City today rent In his acceptance of the petition to place hla name on the primary ballot as a La Foilette alternate from the Fifth dittrict to the republican national con vention. The acceptance, however, will have to go Into cold storage, as the peti tion to which It refers has not yet been filed with the secretary of state, t.'. 8. Bassett of Gibbon today sent in Ms filing as ' republican candidate for state auditor. Mass retldeta lrrrwlar. A letter received by the secretary of Mate from a prominent resident of Ber trand staiea that only two of the names signed to the petition to have Mr. Ross' name placed on the ballot as a candidate for the presidency are or have been tor several years past residents of that place. A similar report came from another town represented on the petition. All the names are of parties who at some tlmo or other resided at the places set opposite their names and the wonder Is where did the circulator of the petition obtain the sign' turea. ! ' ' Those who have been scanning the Jour nat's straw vote on presidential preference are wondering If the results obtained are as reliable as the straw vote on the mi) orally taken lust before the Isst Lin coin municipal election. At that time the vote showed Mayor Armstrong did not have a look-in. but the count of the bal lots election night landed Mm In the mayor's office. . The straw vote may be amusing, but it lacks much of being con vincing. Stat Senator J. A. Ollls of Ord has 1 ten looked upon as a probable demo- ratio randldate for railway commissioner, but he Is out In a card In which he de cline to make the rare and takes occa sion to give the people several yards of advice on the kind of a man who would make a good official. In spite of the lecllnatlon It wee remarked by a person who read It that the letter sounded much I ke Mr. Ollls' measure of himself. A petition filed In the Lancaster county I'lrrk's office asks that the name of P. F Zjmmer be placed on the primary ballot as a republican candidate for the state senate from Lancaster county. 11. K. Purkett, republican candidate for 1 lie nomination of atate representative from Lancaster county, has filed his writ ten acceptance of statement No. 1 to vote ftir the candidate for United States sera tor who receive the highest number of votes In the election. Irrllk Clab Meets. The State Swedish Republican club met last night at the Llndell hotel and among other things discussed waa the endorse ment of someone for the office of lieu tenant governor. At a previous meeting i'. II. Oustafson and Petrua Peterson had both sought the endorsement of the club and after considerable discussion the question wsa put over. Peterson has withdrawn from the race, but while the members of the club ei pressed a kindly feeling for Mr. Oustafson no formal ac tion was taken on the candidacy of any one. The democratic central committee of Taucaster county will meet Saturday at 1 w p. ir. to take a survey of tbe political situation. One of the things to be dis cussed is how Lancaster county can be lined up to best meet the political wishes of W. J. Bryan, and It Is a foregone con clusion that friends of Judson Harmon will receive scant courtesy. Another ob ject Is to see It some way cannot be de rived by which the democrats can cap ture some of the local offices at the coming election, particularly members of the legislature. -v, J. H. Morchead ef Falls City was In Hnculn today, and after scanning the letter nf 1. A. Ollls. in "which the senator from Ord urged democrats to force all candidates to Issue a platform In advance of !he primaries, said that be was not yet ready to make any detailed statement of his ideas, but that he would do so later. Incidentally, he declared for .conomy in public expenditures and in co.mr so admitted that the last legisla ture, controlled by the democrats and of w hies he was a member, made, many In excusable appropriations.
