Compromise In Nebraska.

New York Times 100 years ago today, July 28, 1912:
Roosevelt Electors to Withdraw from Regular Ticket — Convention Close.
    LINCOLN, Neb., July 27.— It became known here to-day that a plan was effected at a conference of Progressive and regular Republicans at a local hotel last night, whereby the Nebraska candidates for Presidential Electors on the Republican ticket who are favorable to Roosevelt would withdraw and their places be filled by men who, if elected, will cast their votes for President Taft.
    Gov. Aldrich was a party to the conference, but it was reported at the State house to-day that he would refuse to carry out the agreement and would stand by his earlier position for Roosevelt.
