on the subject Of the surprise TO

the local republican managers.
1t was conceded many months
ago that Representative Mcclure
intended making his fight squarely
on the free coinage issue, regardless
of what the st. Louis Convention
might do. He announced through
this correspondence several times
that he would not abide by the st.
Louis platform if a gold standard
declaration was made.

Leavenwortb, Kan, Sept. &c.
The recent announcement that Col
onel Bob Ingersoll would speak for
Mckinley and thegold standard has
caused the colonei's local friends to
look up his record on silver. In q
volume entitled Great Speeches of
Ingersoll," page 50, the following
words on silver are addressed to
farmers:
. "F9 my part I do not ask my in
terrence on the part of the govern
ment except to undo the wrong it
has done l do not ask that money
be made out of nothing But 1 do
ask for the reconciliation of silver.
Silver was demonetized by fraud. It
is an imposition upon every solvent
man; fraud upon every honest
debtor in the United States. It as.
sassinated labor. 1t was done in the
interest of ayarice and greed. and
should be out-done by honest men. =

BRIGHr PROSPECT
DEMOCRATS.
Resume of the Campaign ana
Present Situation.
Eryan Sure OF Eiec,isr.

Chicago, H., Oct. IA state
ment issued from the national dem
ocratic headquarters puts bright
face on the election prospect. Ihe
statement follows:
The polictical outlook at the close
OF September Is Of the most satisfac-
tory character. The democratic
national managers are confident that
the cause of Bryan and free silver
has received a marked impetus dur
ing the last ten days.
From every quarter especially
from the central western states
comes reports that farmers every
where are focking to the Bryan
standard while in the cities there
is every indication that an overwhel-
ming msjority OF the labor vote will
be cast for the free silver nominee
for President,
In many of the central western
states the democratic managers
have completed their first poll OF
the returns indicate that Bryan will
carry every one of them by immense
majorities.
A poll of Kansas shows that the
Bryan electors will have $4,000 ma
jority in that state.
A similar poll of Kentucky shows
that Brynu's majority will not be
less than 10000.
Fusion has been consum mated in
in Michigan, a result which, in the
estimation of the most conservative
politiciana, gives that state to Bryan
by large majority.
From nearly every county in Ohio
estimates indicate the Bryan will
carry that state by not less than 20.
600 majority.
A Republican poll of Nebraska
shows that Bryan will carry the
state by $4,000.
Estimates from Iowa give the
state to Bryan by more than 10000
majority.
A poll of Missouri gives that state
to Bryan by $4,000.
The Democratic canvass in Illinois
gives Bryan nearly 10000 majority
outside of Chicago; while Chicago is
expected to give him at least $4,000
majority.
Taking the reports from the cen.
tral western States and adding to
them the States conceded by the
Republicans, the Democratic mana
gers claim the following States as
absolutely certain for Bryan: Ala
bama, Arkansas, California, Colora-
do, Florida, Georgia, Idaho, Kansas,
Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi,
Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, Nevs.
da, North Carolina, North Dakots,
Oregon, South Carolina. South Da.
kota, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, Vir-
ginia, Washington, Wyoming, West
Virginia, Delaware, Maryland, Min
nesota, Michigan, Iowa, Illinois, In
diana, Ohio, giving Mr.. Bryan a to-
tai of 3l7 electoral votes.
