LINCOLN, May 9. (Speclal.)-Aocord-Ing
to Information received by E. O.
Maggl, who formerly resided In Boono
county andshas been Intimately ac
quainted with Senator J. II. Kemp for
many years, that gentleman has finally
concluded to make the filing for the re
pbllcan nomination for governor and will
probably sand In the papers emu time
next week.
Mr. Maggt received today a letter from
Mr, Kemp relating to legal matters, and
In It he said that he would pobably file
the coming week.
Senator Kemp was In Lincoln last week
looking the proposition and conferring
with friends over the situation. Ills can
didacy was first sprung at the last ses
sion of the legislature when, as president
of tho senate, he made a strong Impres
sion among his fellow members as being
laibcrnaterlal Umber, but he stood off
all efforts to get him Into the race until
tho past few weeks when the demand
not only from friends north of the Platte,
but In other sections, that ho come out,
prompted him to toko the matter serl- j
ously.
Moonern DinpnlriiiK.
Tho announcement of Nathan Merrlam
of Omaha, bull moose candidate for con
gress In the Second district, that he Is
going to Europo during the campaign, Is
not tecelved with favor among the bull
moose herd Id the capital city, where an
especial effort has been made for the
past two months to bolster up tho evi
dently falling cause. In the minds of
many tho action of Merriam shows that
the leaders themselves have little hope
of making much showing In the coming
primary and much less in. the election.
The statement made a week ago that
Harry Sackett had contracted cold feet
on the proposition of running for gov
ernor was a hard blow to the cause and
It took a whole lot of work on the part
of the bosses to counteract the report and
tin- finai announcement from somewhere
by somebody that Sackett was still In the
rlmt shows the ability of tho bossos to
mtot tho situations which may some up
and that hot water bags as applications
or cold feet are ono of tho uosets of the
bull moose htcerlng committee, and Mer
rlnm's may already be on its way to
Omaha.
Nrn from Dakota.
Another announcement that struck con
siderable consternation Into the hearts of
tlie steering commlttco was the press
report this morning showing that the
bull moose committee in South Dakota
had abandoned the plan of putting up
a state ticket. Elections which have
been ,hcld since 191 have showed large
falling off In the progressiva vote. In some
cases so great as to Indicate almost en
t.ro annihilation. The faithful have tried
to appear calm, but (he tlchtags from
South Dakota Indicate a probable whole
sale desertion of tho cause and n bn-
. donment of the orgnlzatlon.
Chief Engineer Frank P. Corrick of ilie
bull moose steering committee was dis
covered today circulating among repub
licans with a petition asking for the.
filing of the name of Harry EL Sackott
for the republican nomination for gov
ernor. Whether this is being done to
bolster up the courage of the Beatrice
statesman is not known, but It Is gener-
. ally understood that It is one of Cor
ilck's tricks to deceive republicans and
get' Sackett into the race In the hope of
defeating any republican who might file
for the nomination on the republican
ticket.
Minor File for Andltor.
Deputy State Auditor Walter Minor this
afternoon filed for tho republican nomi
nation for state auditor. Mr. Minor came
from Morrll In Scotts Bluff county to
accept tho deputyshlp under Mr. Howard
and has made many strong; friends sinco
coming to the state house. Ho is full of
business and always on the Job.
