Governor Shallenberger seems to be going through the drying out process for he, t0o, | Is very much interested in the next move of the presidential candidate. His friends have been laboring diligently to prevent & break with the peerless one and the gov- ernor himyelf has said he would run on any platform the democratic party constructed for him. Because of his statement fricids of the executive believe Mr. Bryan should not Inelude him in any slaughter he may be contemplating. Attorney Hatfleld {s very much Inter- ested In tae coming of the big chief, for he has gone to considerable trouble to send out petitions 7-r signatures advo- cating the candidacy o. Mr. Bryan for the senate. Should Mr. Bryan tur him down, Mr. Hattlel. will be left in a very | humiliating position. | George W. Berge is very ested in the return of the traveler, be- cause §f Mr. Bryan should say “I needs must have a county option candidaie for governor.” Mr. Berge could fill the bill. Mr, Berge, it is be'ieved, woula not be| averse to runnig op a ticket headed by | Mr. Bryan for the senate. | Others are interes .. in the return of | Mr. Bryan, 1or wiey are anxlous to know | what he will say w.en Brother .narley | shoys him enougn pledges 10 have passed the Iniuative and referendum with the refusal to call the extra session by thel governor, after his solemu promise. C. W. Bryan was very conservative in what he id in answer to the s.atement of the | governor, but wiere are others who pre soaking in that possib'y Mr. Hichcock had something to do with the decision of the governor. C. W. Bryan had nothing to st today for publication, as the presidential can- didate will be here .omorrow, when he &an do his own talking. { Still Baying Automobiles.
