Republicans would come down to Harlem
bridge with 10000 plurality, and he was
even more confident since. He did not
think the Democrats in New York, Kings.
Queens and Richmond would be able to
get greater majority In these counties
than they did in 1888. and he thought Har

Chairman Carter said: From the best
information and belief. am satieied that
the popular virdict will elect President
Harrison. New York State Is safely Re-
publican, and look for an increased ma
jority over 1888. There will be no slump in
the Western States.
