The paragraph that was allowed to be put in the platform was accepted by the majority of the eom- mittes after saveral stronger ones had baen rejected and then it was favored only by three members of the committee, Rich- ard L Metcalfe, Harvey Newbranch and George C.

Harry Hayward of Omaha and others did not mince matters in their denunclation of the initfative plan. Can didates for supreme judge through triends were put out because the platform was not limited to the endorsement of the nonpartisan judiciary and they discovered 00 late that they had been out-generaled by an older hand at the business Another Blow to Governor. But the worst bomb of all that was thrown into the Shallenberger camp was the declination of Chris. Gruenther of the position of chairman of the state com- mittee. That many of the Dahimanites knew Gruenther would not accept the place there is not the least doubt. Gruenther had expressed himself before the conven- tion and his statement had been published in The Bee. But Shallenberger, to make peace, insisted that Gruenther should be named and the convention helped him out only to see the job thrown into the face of the governor. The program for next vear has already beert mapped out by the opponents of the governor. and it includes the election of Chris. Gruenther for chairman and the nomination of Dahlman for governor, his attempted nomination. The new viaduct on North Tenth street will be started Thursday.
