Although the democrats seem to take a very hope ful view of the outcome of the campaign, in anticipation of the expected fusion of the anti-republican forces, thete are no signs of discouragement at republican headquarters today, although it is ad mitted that the fight is to be a hard one and will require steady, conscientious and unceasing efforts on the patt of the republicans. Republican leaders sav they look for a close fight, but bank their reliance on the superiority of expansion as the lead ing issue of the campaign, which will carrv them to victory. The republican literary bureau is very active now in eendingout campaign material and docu ments that will assist in the cause, and many republican papers of the country are being supplied with political matter. At the Headquarters ol ttie democratic congressional committee today all was bright and expectant. It was prophesied on every hand that Br) an and Stevenson would swepp the country In November, but this free expression of confidence among the democrats has not Bhaken in the slightest degree the confidence of the republicans in McKinley and Roosevelt. They firmly assert that fusion or no fusion, their ticket will unquestionably win. Story of a Sluve. To be bound hand and foot for years by the chains of disease is the worst form of slavery.
