BRYAN WILL WIN.
Party Managers Confident He Will Garry Two.
Thirds Of the Electoral Vote.

For the first time since the opening
ofthe campaign a feeling of security mas
settle dupon the Bryan managers atths
national Democratic headquarters.
There, not only In public but in prl-
vate, the assurance is given that Bryan
will carry at least two-thirds of the
electoral vote of the United States.
During last week, fusion between
the Democrats and Popuhsts has been
consumated in North Carolina, Ken
tucky, Illinois and Wyoming. This
union of the silver strength IN these
states, it is claimed, assures them all
for Bryan by overwhelming majorities.
Even the Republicans concede that
they no longer have any chance in
North Carolina and Kentucky.
In Kentucky fusion was reached
under an agreement whereby the Pop.
uliSts withdrew their electoral ticket
and are given two places on the Dem
ocratic electoral ticket In North
Carolina the Democratic, Populist and
Silver parties have united on the Bry-
an electoral ticket, the Democrats
naming five electors, the Populists five
and the Silver party one.
In Illinois four Democratic electors
have withdrawn and their places are
filled BY four Populists. This com,
pletes fusion in Illinois, gives 10000
Populist votes in that state to Bryan,
and the Democratic managers declare
assures a majority of at least 10000
for the Democratic. The Democrats
and Populists Of Wyoming have also
arranged fusion on the basis of two

THE PARDON OF BARpslEY,

The pardon of John Bardsley. the
Philadelphia embezzler. by Governor
Hastings, is an act that is regretted
and condemned by all good citizens.
i IS to be regretted that the Pardon
Board should lend themselves to a
scheme 10 set free a man who stole a
million dollars of public money, and
that the Governor should be induced
to sign the pardon. for it creates a
feeling among the people that no man
with political pull can be punished,
no matter how great his crime. while
the poor fellow who steals pair of
boots serves out his full term.
The chief reason that seems to have
led Governor Hastings to sign the
pardon was the alleged physical con-
ditlon OF Blrdsley. He was said to
have had paralytic stroke only few
days before, and immediate action was
urged so that John could get out in
time 10 die at home in his own COM
Portable bed. But, 10 and behold.
when the PRISON doors are thrown
open, he walks out without assistance.
is met by his wife IN a carriage. and
they so to the cars and start off on a
pleasure trip, spending a few hours in
Williamsport, and going thence to
some point near Jersey Shore, where
they will spend several weeks. No
signs of paralysis or any other disease.
In fact. Bardsley is said to be in as
good state Of health as men usually
are at his age. The Governor should
hang his head in shame. If he be-
heved what was told him, he ought to
be ashamed that he was so easily
duped. If he did not believe it, then
he is all the more to be censured.
The pardon Of John Bardsley under
the circumstances will send the ad.
mlmstatiou of Daniel H. Hastings
dawn into history in ignominy.
