'! 3 P pins Nebraska DEMOS LOOK FOR SENSATION SOON! Conferences Continue and Publio is of Opinion that Candidate Will Be Drafted. CORRICK TALKS OF COLONEL (From a Staff Correspondent.) LINCOLN, Dec. 8L—(Special.)—There is a deep atmosphere of mystery in the democratic camp today. The conference of Governor Morehead and Mayor Charles Bwyan yesterday and on top of that a hurried ‘visit to Lincoln today of C. M Skiles of David City, who has been hobnobbing with politicians, has led to| the bellef that something will be turned loose in the democratic camp very shortly. The fact that some of the so-called leaders in Lincoln are not in on the deal has made the situation all the more com plicated, for nobody seems to know when it will happen. Some are of the opinion that another concerted effort is being made to spring| a demand for Governor Morehead to get into the race for a third term. It is even intimated that the demand will be backed up by an even stronger force than prompted the governor to change mind two years ago, but where it will come from or in what manner it will come is the great secret Corrick Sees T. R. in Race. 1t 4s the opinion of Frank P. Corrick, | who has just returned from a six weeks' sojourn in the east, whare he hobnobbed with politiclans of all k\ids, that Theo- dore Roosevelt will be the republican nominee for the preside Mr. Corrick bases his prediction on opin- fons expressed by business men, who, | while business has been pretty good fl.||~ | ing the last year, do not lay conditions resulting from the work or policy of the democratic but rather to the result of conditions brought on by the war in Europe. Business men of the east, Mr. Corrick says, are almost universally for prepar- cdness and preparedness of the kind ad vocated largely by the Oyster Bay states- man. They are not In sympathy with the manner in which the situation has been handled in the controversies with belligerent nations and say that with Roosevelt in the presidential chair a pol- fcy would be carried out that would count for results. This would not mean war, they belleve, but they think the offending nations know Teddy so well that they wouid know better than to dilly dally along and would understand that what Mr. Roosevelt lald down would have to be followed out and there would be no high worded communications ably couched in grammatical words which had a mean- ingless end, Mr. Corrick says that most of the senti- ment for the peace program has come from the middie west and that the east and the Pacific coast states are not in sympathy with it.
