Support From All Classes Re-
cetTm Giwtlng J"rom Rhode
Scholar at Oxford, College.
NEW TORK. Oct. 25. After a wk of
hard campalenlnp. W. J. Bryan. Demo
cratic candidate' for President, rested to
day in this city. The candidate had break
fasted In hit personal car as It was dash
Ire through New Jersey, and arrived at
KIT. A. M. at Jersey City, where he was
rr. t by National Chairman Mack and N"a-t-an
Straus. Almost immediately the
vany crossed the ferry to New York and
;r V'nan was driven to the residence
t Mr. Straus, where the day was spent
rstlng for this week s ordeal. Tonight
the candidate dined at the home of Her
man Hinder, treasurer of the National
lemocratic committee.
Tomorrow morning early Mr. Bryan will
ft to Paterson. N. J.. In fulfillment of a
j ledse made last week to make a speech
there. At the conclusion of the meeting
he will return to New York City.
Campaigning Conies Easier.
Mr. Rrvan declared tonight that, with
the exception of being very tired, he was
feeling well.
-I am finkihln the campaign better
thnn I have ever finished one." he said
'.My voice has stood the strain well and
I do not think I have lost weight."
Mr. Bryan said that some of the fore
casts he had seen In the morning papers
todav did not asree with the reports that
he hud been receiving;.
How do things look. Mr. Bryan V he
wan asked.
Very encouraging." was the reply.
"What do you think of Indiana?" he
ma atked.
"We had very enthusiastic meetings
there and also In Ohio. The prospects In
bo'h states are very bright." was the
answer.
Straw Voles Show Gains.
Mr. Bryan said that all the straw bal
lots that had been taken in the country
showed Democratic gains. "But." he con
tinued, "of course Hie accuracy of the
etraw ballot depends upon the way !t Is
taken and the way the names are se
lected. You select a list of names to
send postal cards to, you receive many
answers, but you have no way of flndlru?
out how the men who did not answer are
going to vote. The trouble cornea when
you try to average the votes of the ones
who have not responded with the votes
of the ones who have responded."
"Where have the Democratic gains been
thla year, in comparison with other
years?" the candidate was asked.
Gains From All Classes.
"This year the Democrats have gained
In every state. Heretofore we have mado
galr-a in some states and have lost In
others. This year there are gains through
out the whole country and gains in every
pi-cupntion. There are gains among farm
ers, and these gains are very marked.
There are gains among business men.
professional men. and especially among
college men. That is the Interesting point
In this campaign compared with the other
campaigns that I have had anything to
do with."
Mr. Bryan said that the poll on New
York City, the largest city in the coun
try, and the poll In Iowa, probably the
largest agricultural state, showed that
the Democratic gains were substantially
the same.
Greeting From Khodes Scholars.
Mr. Bryan today received the following
cablegram from txford College. England:
"W. J. Brynn. Iemocratlc Candidate
for President. New York: Rhodes schol
ars, after debate, emphatically support
jou for President and wish you success. ,
"(Signed) AMERICAN CLUB."
TAFT CAN LOSE NEW YORK
.Continued from First Pair.
thr t a remote possibility that some
thin may ooour In any one of them to
mnke the result doubtful, and bo. spe
cially as they are claimed bjr Bryan, they
ure set down in the doubtful column.
Only because of this fact are Missouri
and Kentucky pi act A tn the sure Bryaa
oMumrt. Koth those atatrs aro reason
ably doubtful, b.it for purposes of this
calculation are conceded to Hryan.
Wisconsin. ioa, T'tah and lejron have
twrn pet down in the Taft column be
caiive factional trouble, that at one time
aeemed to threaten Republican suprem
acy. h;9 boen entirely wined out. at least
so far tut the National ticket is con
cerned, and there 1h no reasonable ground
upon which any one of them can longer be
claimed by liryan.
It miirht also be only fair to subdivide
the doubtful column into probably Taft.
probably liryan. and extremely doubtful
static, but for the purposes of this argu
ment this is not necessary. Should such
a subdivision be made, however, the de
velopments of the past two weeks would
Justify placing Illinois. Indiana, Nebras
ka. New York. Ohio and West Virginia
In the probable Taft column, conceding
to Hryan Nevada and Oklahoma, leaving?
I'olorado, Kansas, Maryland. Montana,
North Dakota and Ohio in doubt.
One Po-ible Way.
As stated at the outset. It is quite prob
able that Taf: will carry New York. Ohio
and Indiana, but if he should lose all
three tate. he m'cht yet be elected by
various combinations. For instance. Taft
could be elected in the following manner:
i Vm-oil d Taft sTare 173
r.id. m .1
Tr.m..: 27
K'ti ... ... 1)
M .11 land 4
V'n':irn , 3
X t-ra.-kft ...
North Dakota 4
Wet Virg cla 7
T.ia.: ?7r.
Tni calculation, in addition to conced
ing New York. Ohio and Indiana to
Fryan. jrivs him as well both Nevada
and Oklahoma, states which he will, in
all probability, carry. Even then, lryan
would have but 23S votes, or four less
than a majority of the electoral college.
By another method of calculation Taft
ma concede to Bryan New York. Illinois.
Oklahoma, Nevada and Kansas, and still
bn elected, or. in place of Kansas, he
can concede Maryland and Montana, and
still have a majority.
But If Taft. In addition to the states he
now controls, carries Ohio and Illinois,
which he wlil do beyond a reasonable
doubt, he will need only 19 more electoral
votes to elect him. and These 19 can be
picked out of the doubtful column in
many ways, and still give New York to
Bnan.
On Lae other hand, if Bryan concedes
New York to Taft. he must take out of
the doubtful column at least W votea td
win the election. He will not need all of
the doubtful states, but he will need most
of them, for. with New York In the Re
publican column, there are but 130 doubt
ful votes lert. tnd Illinois is mosi essen
tial to his success, for with New York
and Illinois both eliminated, Bryan must
carrr every other doubtful state. He
could be elected In the following manner:
Cotid So at a 161
rnlnnn .................... 3
Indiana 15
Kansas . ......- - J 2
Maryland h 8
Montana ,.
N ebraska, . . .. - . . .
Nevada ...... ....
North Dakota - -
Ofilrt ..... - 23
Oklahoma
Wmt Virginia
Total
Such a combination would give Bryan
two votes to spare. There Is no one raeh
enough to claim that Brj'in could carry
all the states on this list, and therefore,
in all reason, if Bryan is to be elected.
he must carry Illinois to offset the small
er states on this list which will almost
certainly g-o for Taft.
How Bryan Might Win.
If Bryan should carry Illinois and Ohio
he could then concede to Taft Colorado,
Man-land, Nebraska and West Virginia,
and still have one electoral vote to spare,
or he could substitute North Dakota and

As a matter of fact, the Bryan figures
are interesting chiefly as demonstrating
how Bryan "might" be elected without
New York's 3S electoral votes. There Is
every Indication that Bryan will not carry
New York, and quite as strong Indication
that he will not carry Indiana, Illinois.
Nebraska or Maryland. He must have
some of these states to win. even though
he loaos New York.
Situation lias Clarified.
It Is not to be denied that the Re
publican outlook Is steadily Improving.
Iowa, once doubtful, is no longer a
source of anxiety to the Republican lead
ers: no mors Is Illinois. Even In Ohio,
where utter chaos has reigned for long,
affairs are taking a more favorable turn
and that state Is today claimed by 'he
Republican campaign managers, and
with some good gTound for the asser
tion. Ohio has a tremendous normal
Republican majority; It Is the home of
the Republican candidate; the bitter
ness bot ween factions Is almost com
pletely forgotten for the trme being,
and Taft. at least. Is satisfied he will
carry his own state.
That Bryan himself has fears about
his mate, Nebraska. Is evidenced by
the fact that he will havi made 60
speeches In vaiioua parts of the state
before election day. The tours of Mr.
T.-fft and Governor Hughes through the
enemy's country worked all manner of
havoc among the independent voter. f
Nebraska, and it thoroughly aroused
the Republicans. With her normal vote
Nebraska will be beyond Bryan's reach.
'Fool Kansas" that has been buncoed
by Bryan's bank deposit guarantee Idea,
Is still causing alarm at Republican
headquarters, though every effort is be
ing put forth to show the popullstlcally
inclined Kansans titat this hank deposit
guarantee scheme la nothing but a clever
bit of bunco game played by Bryan for
the sole purpose of catching votes. But
Kansas Is probably safe for Taft.
Maryland, that all along seemed reas
onably certain to vote for Taft, Is today
more doubtful than It was two weeks
aaro. There Is a trend towards Bryan,
due. In a large extent. t6 the fact that
there are many unemployed In the state,
most of them Ignorant, and ready to ac
cept the word of Bryan that his elec
tion will mean the full dinner-pail. Un
lfss this idea can be dispelled. Maryland
may get back Into the Democratic col
umn. At the present moment It la con
ceded to be close.
Montana, once despaired of. is swing
ing towards Taft. Nevada is swing
ing the other way. West Virginia has
got back to htT normal footing, save
for a small element among the labor
ing men. who look upon Bryan as their
only true friend. Still, there Is a ma
jority of over 31.000 to be overcome
before West Virginia goes Democratic
and that now seems Impossible. Taft
will not get the vote that Roosevelt did
In West Virginia, but he stands a good
chance of carrying the state by at least
M.flW.
Indiana Is Safe.
From the most reliable sources comes
the Information that Indiana, while ex
tremely doubtful so far as the state
ticket. Is concerned. Is safe on the Re
publican National ticket. There, as In
West Virginia, there will be a falling
off in the labor vote, but Roosevelt car
ried the state by nearly lOO.ono. and that
majority, it Is- said, cannot now be
broken down entirely. The state lead
ers say Taft will nave a plurality of
from 40.000 to 60.000.

DECLARES HE WILL
GARRY OWN STATE
Taft Says if He Did Not, He
Would Not Deserve to
Be President. x
IS GRATEFUL TO HUGHES
gays Yrm n pnown Speech Is Classic
and Hopes Governor Will Win
Out Talks Freely Regarding
Outlook In Various States.
NEW YORK. Oct. 25. W. H. Taft
reached New York at 6:15 o'clock tonight
from Clary, Ind., where he closed the
campaign In that state last night. The
18-hour Journey afforded the canddate
complete rest from talking. He snld he
felt In first-class physical condition, al
though somewhat hoarse. H. W. T&ft
met his brother at the station and took
him to his residence, where he will spend
the night.
The first lap of Mr. Taffs Eastern cam
paign will begin tomorrow wlflh a run
to New Haven. Conn., which will begin at
4:30 o'clock, and In the evening Mr. Taft
will address a meeting In Brooklyn.
. Mr. Taft is planning to take a brief rest
after the election. "I have campaigned
In 23 states," said Mr. Taft tonight. "I
Htvnt to carrv &1I of them with the ex
ception of those south of Mason and'i
Dixon's line. The situation looks better
than at any previous time ind . I shall
enter the last lap of the campaign with a
great deal of interest and enthusiasm."
Mr. Taft talked freely during the
evening to various callers, in all cases
expressing confidence In the outcome of
the campaign. Asked to particularize
as to results In the various states, Ohio,
for Instance, Mr. Taft said he had not
a doubt but that Ohio would b strong
ly for him.
"If I could not carry my own state, I
would not deserve to be running for
President." he said. ,
Concerning North Carolina, Tennes
see and Virginia Judge Taft said his
visit to those states had strengthened
his belief tiiat one of these days a Re
publican Presidential candidate would
carry any one on all of them. Kentucky
and Missouri, the candidate said, were
reasonably doubtful, but Maryland
would go Republican.
Mr. Taft was asked for his opinion
on the effect of the speech-making trip
of Governor Hughes through the West.
He said:
"I feel deeply gTateful to Mr. Hughes.
He made a great Impression all through
the West. His speech at Youngstown.
Ohio, Is a classic. I hope the people in
this state will appreciate that what he
did for me, in going out there to help
me fight my battle, shows him to be
worthy of their support, I feel very
deeply interested In -his election."
After this Mr. Taft referred to the
situation in Ohio.
If Massachusetts should go Demo
cratic, then Ohio might," he said, "but I
doubt It. Only such a situation as that,
with Republican states reversing their
vote, could make me believe Ohio is not
safely in the Republican column."

MONTREAL. Oct. 25. A general elec

the Dominion of Canada to choose a new
Parliament. At present the Liberal
party, led by Sir Wilfrid Laurler. holds
control of the Canadian government, as
it has done during the past 12 years.
and nothing has developed during the
five weeks campaigning Just closed to In
dicate to the Impartial observer that any
change is imminent.
Most authorities, however, agree that
the Liberals will be shorn of some of
their strength should they a grain ba re
turned to power. 8Ir Wilfrid made his
appeal to the electors to be enabled to
complete the work begun under his ad
ministration, most notably the building
of the national transcontinental railway.
He appealed for a renewal of confidence
on the ground that his government had
given to Canada-12 years of unexampled
prosperity.
Hon. L. Borden, leader 01 tne opposi
tion forces, and his party have made
their fla-ht almost wholly on a question
of electoral purity and administration re
forms Premier Laurler has 'ignored the scan
dals, declaring them too trivial to merit
his attention. It Is estimated that not
less than 100,000 settlers from the West
ern States have Immigrated across the
border into the prairie provinces of the
Dominion since the last general election
was held. The manner In which these
new electors will distribute their votes
may have something to do with determin
ing the result.
