Uarysons popular majority 900 far as can ascer-
tain and been at great pains TO inform myself
There is no dissatisfaction whatever among Republicans
with the National ticket All are enthusiastic and vote
without urging. There is no question but that some
Democrats here and there will support Harrison, and
large and constantly growing number OF Prohibonsts
arc deciding that they will support Harrison and Morton
and Miller, especially Miller. L. h MOZzEf'

Harrison's popular majority 5000 1 believe this to
he conservative estimate with good weather, should
not be surprised IT doubled In judging from our
own locality and expressed opinion OF gentlemen who
have visited portions Of the State the country
districts so-caled will show decided gains for the Re
publican ticket over four years ago.
