NEW YOHK,! Oct, 24. Ton days
before election," Chalromn Norman K.
Mack, of the Democratic national
committee,' claims New York, In
diana, New JerHcy, Ohio, West Vir
ginia and Rhode Island. The Demo
crats also declare they can win with
out the Kmplre stato.
Figures many and voluminous are
given to substantiate Mack's state
ment.. New. Jersey will give forty
thousand plurality to Hrynn. Not
a single electoral vote will go to the
republicans in Indiana. Ilryan and
Chanter In New York will win in a
walk. Mack says his computation
Ib based on a direct poll of the vot
ors, reliable reports from congres
sional districts, the word of state
chairmen and the unbiased opinion
of shrewd political judges.
In view of the republicans' state
ment, to be issued Mondny, wise
politicians are refraining from com
ment upon the Democratic forecast of
tonight.
lAthrop (lives Huinmnry.
CHICAGO, Oct. 24. Swooping the
country in a summarizing rovlew of
the political conditions, one Is forced
to assert that 1908 seems determined
to repeat Its performance of 1892 by
electing a democratic president. Ev
ery significant change In sentiment
' among the several natural divisions
of voters Indicates such a strong drift
towards Uryan that success on No
vember 3 would seem to be a good
bet. It 1b the period of the straw
votes, when In a given stato, casting
millions of votes, nowsiiaiiers send
out poBtnl cardB and get retuniR from
say 3000 voters, or one In every 3, '10
who vote, therofrom predicate
guosses as to the mini result.
This has been done by the New
York World, the Cincinnati Knqulr
r, St. Louis Republic and Chicago
Hocord-llernld, all covering practical
ly evory northern statu east of the
Hockles.
Disregarding territorial comments
on printed result these polls, stating
them without permitting "wish to be
father to tho thought," as 1 serloiiHly
tried to do during tho past throe
days, I can't see any conclusion other
than that Intelligent betting would
back Bryan for tho presidency.
Not Correct Basis.
In the first place, tho 1904 vote
Is not a correct basis for estimating.
In mnny states Koosevelt carried the
commonwealths with nn Immense
plurality, while at the same time the
total republican vote is much less
than In 1900 and the democratic vote
Is so small thnt It is represented on
ly by a bodygunrd of democrats who
wont to tho polls.
The 1800 vote, then, Is a propor
basis for comparison. For Instnnce.
Missouri In 1904 gnvo Hoosevelt a
majority, yet tho voto showed thai
1 26,000 democrats remained nt
home.
Several business men undertook to
get a lino on tho situation by com
municating with hundredB of cus
tomers In all the northern states, the
rottirns being tho customer's ob
servations in hlB region. These re
turns aro compreheuslvo and ap
parently non-partlHnn nnd Indicate
that Indiana, Ohio, Maryland and
Now York aro democratic, with Illi
nois, Wisconsin, Nebraska, Kansas,
Houth Dakotn. West Virginia. Con
necticut and New Jersey doubtful, fn
varying degrees.
Nebraska, perhaps, should bo plac
ed lu the llrynn column; also Mon
tana, Idaho, Colorado and Wyoming
The handlrap of rnmpnrlsnn with
1904, with its popular plurality for
Koosnvelt of 2.54u,ul !. melts awny
when 1900 Is taken, with' only a plur
ality for McKlnley of 849.790. which
carry tho proof of the "stay at home"
vote by showing a total vote In 1900
of about 14.000.(100. with onlv about
13.600.000 In 1904, when It should
bnvo given a large lucreaw over
1900.
Nationally, Ilryan has to change
426.000 votes from 1900 to win. or
S per cent of the popular vote. The
south, with Nevada and Oklahoma,
will give him 161 electoral voles, ad
ding 77 for New York. Indiana and
Ohio, a total of 238 is reached, ot on
ly four less than the 24 2 necessary to
give a majority of 483 electoral
votes.
I find It difficult to locnte the man
who claims that In all the sweep of
north and west, will not be other
electoral votes for Ilryan than those
three states named. New York. In
diana and Ohio. In fart. Mr. Hitch
cock has practically conceded Mon
tana, Colorado and Wyoming. Re
publicans admit grave doubts as to
Nebraska, Idaho. Wisconsin. West
Virginia, Kansas. Connecticut, or a
total of 59 votes concededly doubt
ful, with fighting chances In several
other states. South Dakota and Inwn.
This pan's It down to a safe showing
on a basis of actual conditions now
existing. It gives Bryan the election.

Uvery prominent republican has
been advised of tho plan, and so fur
as known no protest has been ofTer

from fl. (Kill, ooo t, $6,000,000.
I am In a position to know that
'he llrynn tight Is being conllncd to

fund of a little more than $.100,000
so far raised, has been expended in
literature and speakers. No fund hns
been provided for "uho on election

in address before the Oregon-Idaho

hud been misquoted In tho report us
to what ho said on that occasion.
"I did not Bay," said Mr. Clarke,
"that Coos Hay people had given up
hope or getting Mr. Harrlman to
build the llralli-Cnos Hay railroad. I
lo not know what they hope, but the
