Aciosafriend ot David, Hill, and a tn&tt-in-Vposillon to know, has written a letter, .ta whicn lie states that Hill has said tlffcre Is no possibility of Bryan carrying. New -York. The 16-to-l declaration in the-DSinodr&'tle iMatform, he says, is reponslble Yor the failure of Eastefh Democrats' to support the ticket. The whole-jiependeD.ee yf the Democrats on carrying New Tofk Is based i on Crpker',B prediction, and ennsr quently Is very much at fault, as Croker cannot control anything outside of the Tammany -element in that stajte. The fail ure to nominate Coler is also'a reason for absolute defeat In New York. Frank Campbell, who Is prominent In democratic politics In .New J'ork, raised h. great howl because In commenting upon the crowds that have come oHtro hear Bry'an In New York State hecallodj at tention to the facl tfiat'just such cr6wds greeted David B. Hill in his canvass or Governor some years ago. and yet iiJll -was defeated by over 100,000 majority Some Democratic leaders talk of depos ing Campbell as chairman of the Demo drivUc committee because of this indiscreet tlttefanre. AS VIEWED BY'arKIKliET. Is Certain That HeWM Carry Marx land and Indiana. WASHINGTON. Ocr'iS.Presldent Mc JKinley is as absolutely" 'isiiralal .carrying; 2ndlana.and3IarylandAs-haJ6 o&4sa.rxy Ing Ohio. In fact, those who are"1 close to him say that he sometimes talks of tho doubtful chances in Ohio, -but that-he is positive as to Indiana and Maryland. This is especially th.e 7case-,as.. regards Indiana, and he won' even talk.abo.ufc it or" let the matter be discussed, " .saying; that it is absurd to Junk that .Indiana.. Is. not going to vote the Republican ticket.. His confidence in llaryla'nd""is'lmc"sf.aa, the President is one "fthe-best poli ticians in his party. He knows political confiitions.,&i31$ia&-Jwe:'H --as-almost any other man that ever held a political posi tion. Whether he has been misinformed, or -whether he simply believes that it la" the fateoilibJSfiwUCpmtes'ttrgafor MTc-J iiiniey anfl'Roosevelf; 1J a qifestUm that cajmot be answered. It Js true that sonlt men try to give the President the opinion that everything Is more rosy than It really is, yet there are others that go to him and tell him that there are doubtful conditions In several states. His confl- I dence In Maryland and Indiana Is onp of tho curious featuresr of the campaign, as it was not untilf within a week pant that the Republican's believed there was a possibility of Maryland and only a few days ago did anyone assert that Indiana was anything but doubtful. The Repub licans will place Indiana In the doubtful column until the end of the campaign, no matter what managers may say for publication, because they know that It is a doubtful state, and there is just hope that it will ,be carried. The later reports from Indiana received from various sources Indicate that the doubt exists because it Is, evident that McKlnley Is going to lose In the 'cities. It Is Toportcd In nearly every city, from Indianapolis down, that there'-wlll be a falling off. It 1s estimated that in -Indianapolis alone he will lose -from 4093 to 5C0O votes, and in the smaller cities of the state a like proportion. The Repub licans hope to overcome this in the rural districts They believe that there is going to bo a general return pf farmers who left the Republican party and voted for Bryan in 1S9S, and they figure that the" rural vote Is twice as large as the city vote, and consequently If the ratio of gain for McKlnley In the rural districts is one-half as largo as tho latio of gain for Bryan In the cities, It will be a -standoff, and McKlnley will have something like the majority he -had four years ago. This, of course, takes very close figuring and rather optimistic reasoning on the jiaft of the Republicans. If there Is any groat falling off ii. the cities as predicted,, which the Republicans do not now ac Icnowlcdgei It is doubtful If the Republi cans can carry Indiana, There is always a possibility of secur ing a large- purchasable vote in Indiana, but this vote is growing smaller year by year because of the "dishonesty of the purchasable vote made, presumably, by the Australian ballot. It appears that nder the new system tho floaters and men .who aro purchased are" so "dishon est" that they will not "stay bought." If both parties undertake to use money the purchasable yote ds still a doubtful . quantity. However, there Is a great deal anoro talk about using money for buying votes than actually occurs, and money Is usually spent in gettlng;voters to regis ter and,tgct them out Jo the polH on -election flay, rather than in outright buy ing of votes. ITtom every point of view Indiana Is a Vory doubtful quantitj'. On the other hand, Maryland seems to bo swinging into the Republican line be--eau-e tlio people, of -ttat itnto arc at- Iblied with present condition and do not -want to turn themselves over to thp- isms that Bryan stands, for. Ifr-ls probable that the President is ifght In predicting that the vote of this state will be cast for him. A Republican Dollar Dinner. CHICAGO.

'MENACE OF CROKERISM. Here Is Subject "Worthy Bryan's ' Inxective Potvers. ' Harpers Weekly. lh his brilliant oratorical flights from, one end of the country to the other. Mr. Bryan discourses eloquently of many is sue's nbw heftfre the jpeople, the para mountcy of each of which. In his treat ment of them depends rather upon geo graphical conditions than upon considera tions of the highest Welfare of the Nation as a unit In the West and Bouth there Is a distinct sound as of sliver in-the clarion tones 6T this novr Moses who shall leadthW deb'tors of thfa Nation out ofythe intolerable bondago Into which by some. inscrutable provision of Mammon they- are -plunged. In the Middle States, where, under the beneficent. Influences of Altgeldlsm anarchy has dared most con spicuously to rear Its head, and where, therefore, Mr. Bryan is moderately 'safe In assuming that appeals to ehvy, hatred and malice, to the passions which prompt pillage, riot and murder, will not be re sented, the trust issue is discussed with a fervor which 'would lead the octopus to hug-hlmseif with jojat the paramountcy ofjiis position. . And in the East, in New England," where dwells the idealist, Iho high-raTo'ded lbver of republican instltu .tlonethere does Mr. Bryan bring forth his wondrous bogy of imperialism With which to frighten the timid into an alli ance -with himself, hiding behind its am ple skirts his vicious advocacy of a scut tled Supreme Court, of a scuttled dollar. -Of'a-sc'drt'tled anything which may'suf- Jcleotly .agpeal to the discontented to en able the Populist. candidate to gratify an ambition which is, the most creditable feature'' of. his. career- up to the present time. From the Various degrees of fer vor, then, With which Under different skies Mr. Bryan discusses different ques tions, -we may fairly conclude that he does npt consider any One of the problems Involved big enough to reach from Maine to, Texas, or from Ne York to vCall fornla. "They appeal to him doubtless to be just as the tariff question appeared to General Xfancock, local Issues. We therefore take pleasure in inviting Mr. Bryan to consider an issue" now beforo the American people which vitally affects the welfare of every state, ot every city, of every village, of every hamlet, of every man, of every woman and of every child in this country. That Issue Is Crokerlsm. It is a mistake to suppose, as many worthy souls do. Including Mr. Croker himself, we believe, that Grokerlsm is a local issue, and! onco fairly embarked upon a consideration of. its intricacies Mr. Bryan will And himself following a lead nhlch will bring hint lnt6 every hpme in this land. He will fihd at last a ques tion large enough to eovor'eVery inch of territory In the United States, with a suf ficient sflurplus to readh to the Philippine Islands on the ono side, to Cuba and to Porto Rico on the other. As fhe issue un folds itself to him, as it surely must It he will study It intellgently, and with a mind -unbiased, by personal cort&ldera tlonfc, he will see how in its essence It is a sort of omnium gatherum, in which im perlallsm, free riot, discredited courts, "any kind of money," "all kinds or money," morality, public ahd private, Government monopoly, private ownership of public- franchises, public proprietorship of private business all cohcelvablo ques tions that can possibly come up for dis cussion in a political campaign are di rectly involved. HewlH be unablo when he considers its far-reaching effects to say that because Jfew York City suffers most from Crdkerism It Is ot merely local importance. Thero Is nothing spdrndlc about th principles . underlying Croker lsm, however emphatically they may be manifesting thetnselVes at one "special point. They are everywhere, and an oc topus with more deadly tentacles has yet to. appedr on land or sea. Once having mastered the subject In its every phase, the dlptirigulshed candidate for the Pres idency will not have to flit like a butter fly from onb" paramount question to an other, will not be compelled to , trails form himself into an oratorical Chameleon merely to live "up to certain exigencies or a situation which he must by this time have found excessively embarrassing. He will discover in Crokerlsm an issue big enough to cover every corner of the coun try he professes to love, and significant enough to consume every moment of his speaking time from now Until the 8lh of November. Properly to set It forth will tax his vocabulary. Properly to take hl; stand for or against it will, test his sincerity. In snv event, We advise him to study It closely, for, successful or not 1ft his quest for the Presidential of fice, it is bound sooner or later to ob trude Itself up"on him. and he should be prepared either to give It to the out stretched hand of fellowship, or to admin ister that stinging rebuke to which It is 59 richly "entitled.
