OBSERVATIONS
GO TO
- --Ft.-V-
The city council, on -the motion, lit
Mr. Guthrie, has directed that'stepa be
.taken to have made good the city's
money lost during the incumbency of
Elmer 8tephenson, city treasurer. This
is a proper move, but it is doubtful if
anything will come' of it. Mr. Stephen
son is the possessor of a pull that is vig
orous and far-reaching, and when he
puts up the sign "Keep off the Grass,'
the probability is that the people whose
duty it is to go after Mr. Stephenson
will keep off. in Lincoln we all salute
the Man with a Pull.
The curfew is holding forth in Omaha.
Lincoln and 'Omaha join hands in a
picturesque endeavor to din morality
into the ears of youngsters by maans of
bells and steam whistles. But, sad to
relate, the people of the metropolis do
not take kindly to the innovation. -. In.
the town where Fred Krug's brewery is
pointed out to visitors as the chief ob.
ject of interest, public sentiment some
how 'does not seem to measure up to the
idea of the curfew; and every night as
the warning is sounded all over the city
people gibe and jeer, and small boys
place their fingers on their nose, and the
city council is contemned. There is a
great deal of morality in Omaha; but it
is of an unobtrusive, quiet sort. The
corrective measure of the steam whistle
grates on' the sensibilities of the people.
The. idea of Mayor Broatcb's policemen
beitmingraere, agents of the "kid whis
tle" is not popular.
Mr. Bryan is improving asa politician.
He managed the free silver state con
vention with considerable skill. With
the power to exact any recognition, tha
he desired the ex congressman discreetly
kept in the background. When the con
vention wanted to endorse him for the
presidency he wisely said nay. Mr.
Bryan, with a delegation at his back
that he can do with as he will, will be in'
an excellent position in Chicago pro
vided, of course, the soft shells control
the convention. If the rree silver wing
is victorious Mr. Bryan stands a very
good chance of securing the nomination,
and if the other fellows are on top and
the silverites bolt it is Mr. Bryan who
will be the most conspicuous figure.
Mr. Bryan ha- arranged things to suit
himself, and he will be an object of na
tional interest for the next few months.
Republicans are beginning to talk of
"the slate." There Is every reason to be
lieve that the influence that opposed
Jack McColl t wo ears ago, is now dis
poned to give its strength to this patient
candidate, and the slate, at the present
moment, is said to be:
McColl for governor.
McNish for treasurer.
McClay for auditor.
Whether these favorites arc selected
for the purpose of euphemism, or for
some other reason, is not known; but
McColl, McNish, McClay sounds well
It is said that ex-Speaker- Richards may
be thrown the lieutenant governorship
sop, in case he manifests a disposition to
do the tight thing so far as the gover
norship ib concerned.
But slates made in April may be hope
lessly smashed before July. Eugene
Moore has a positive strength, and he
insists that he is still in the race. Con
gressman Meiklejohn may come home
and put new life in 4iis boom. W. J.
Broatch smiles confidently as he talks of
his "strength," and Claire Aaams and
the rest are not without hope. Charley
Casey, of Pawnee, for treasurer, will
give McNish a hard fight.
