amount to over 10000, which would indi-
cate majority of not less than 10000 for
Bryan. This calculation assumes that the
gain from prohibition votes would equal the
escaping the conclusion that the state is
safe for Bryan and the entire ticket"
Minnesota.
Minnesota will give Bryan electoral tick
ct 10000 to 25,OOO"
Miss1saippi.
Democratic free silver majority will not
be less than $4,000. Solid free silver con-
gressional delegation"
Missouri.
"Bryan's majority in Missouri cannot be
less than $1,000. State ticket, on which
there is no fusion, may run 10000 below
this. Legislature will be safely democratic
in both branches, and largely so in the
joint ballot, and will re-elect Hon. George
c. Vest to the United States Senate. We
will elect fourteen Congressman"
Montana.
Montana will give the Bryan electors at
least 1900 majority"
Nebraska.

1.-The total vote of this state will be 10000.
The Bryan electoral ticket will receive
1000 votes. Newlands will be reelected to
Congress by an increased majority"
New York.
I'VE entered upon the campaign in this
state under very discouraging circum-
stances. and but with slight prospects of
saving the state for Bryan and Sewall. The
sentiment in favor of our national ticket
has grown in strength daily, and demo-
Gratis haYe gradually gained confidence in
democratic success. majority of the
voters of this state are in favor Of the
election of Bryan and Sewall. do not be-
lieye that the vast corruption fund raised
by the republican campaign managers can
check the current of opinion, which is run
hing In favor of our national candidate. l
believe that New York city will give at
least 10000 majority for Bryan and Sewall
and that we shall carry the state by 5O,-
OOO."
North Carolina.
Electoral fusion between democrats pop
ulists and silver republicans is complete in
North Carolina. which will secure a ma
Jority for Bryan of 10000 at least"
North Dakota.
North Dakota will be for Bryan by 5000
on conservative estimate, based on full poll
of state. Not to exceed 1000 gold demo-
Gratis in state, while there are fully 5000
silver republicans, MANY of them promi-
nent leaders. Will also elect Congressman
and full fusion state ticket with almost
certainty of carrying legislature and elect
ing United States Senator. In legislative
fight republicans have advantage of II ma
jority of hold-over sta,e senators, but thei-
corrupt legislative record, with overwhelm-
ing silver sentiment among farmers will
give us majority.
Oregon.
Oregon is safe for Bryan at from 5000
to 5000; very conservative estimate. Re
publican claims are largely exaggerated"
South Carolina.
This state will give Bryan a majority of
at least $4,000. All democratic candidates
for Congress will be elected"
South Dakota.
I'VE are confident this state will give
Bryan electors five to eight thousand ma
jority."
Tennessee will give her electoral vote to
Bryan and Sewall by very large plurality
ana will elect eight out of ten democratic
congressman.
From the information obtainable the
Bryan and Sewall electors will have clear
majority of 10000 over Mckinley. There
is no possible combination that can defeat
Bryan and Sewall in Texas, all reports to
the contrary Notwithstanding. This esti-
mate is based on a careful and conserva-
tive poll of the state
Utah.
Bryan will carry this state by 10000
majority. King, democratic candidate for
Congress- surely elected. Will elect demo-
cratic legislature"
Vfrrfni0
Virginia is safe for Bryan by hand
some majority"
Washington.
Washington will give Bryan at least
1900 majority
Wyoming.
wyoming will give Bryan not less than
1 800 majority, and it may reach 1900. The
Hanna managers are using desperate eff
forts to buy and steal the state, but they
cannot buy and steal enough to reduce the
majority below the aforementioned fig
ures. Ex-Gov. Osborn will be elected to
Congress over Mondell, the present Con-
gresham, without doubt
West Virginia.
I'VE will carry West Virginia for Bryan
and the entire state ticket by from eight
to ten thousand majority, and will certainly
elect three and probably all the democratic
candidates for Congress-"
