Benton County Democrats did
nobly Tuesday.
Clements majority is this sena-
torial is about five hundred.
The unterrifed Democracy of old
Benton is still unconquerable.
Chairman Joues comedies moth
ing and is confdentthat Bryan has
been elected.
According to Chairman Jones
Michigan or Indiana will decide
the fate Of the Presidency.
Let us hope, even if the cloud
does seem dark above us now. The
gallant Bryan still has a chance.
If we are defeated, the campaign
of Bryan will 90 down in history.
1t is the grandest battle on record.
A handsome majority for W. J.
Bryan emphasizes the sentiments
of the Democracy of old Benton.
And have you heard from Carroll
County! The Democratic ticket
shows a gain of more than 200 as
compared with the vote Of 1892.
The Democratic State Commit
tee estimates Bryan's majority in
Tennessee at 10000 and places the
minimum figure for Bob Taylor's
majority at $4,000.
The fifth district polled 399 votes,
a gain of 43 compared with the vote
cast in the August election. This
is gain of 35 over the vote of 1892.
The gain in the countyis about 200.
Eight Democrats, all silver men,
and two Republicans will represent
Tennessee in the next House of
Congress. This is a gain of three
Congressman, counting Josiah Pat
terson with the opposition.
Mcdowell, Buchanan & Co. could
not deliver the goods-just as we
predicted. The returns received
up to Wednesday indicate that q
large majority of Populists voted
for the Bryan and Sewall electors

WHO WILL lT BE2
Looks Like the Returns Have Been Col.
orsd by tho Hanna Men.

The resultof the election held in
the United States Tuesday is still
in doubt The Democratic leaders
are positive of Mr. Bryan's cleo
tion, and Mr.. Washburn, chairman
of the Peoples party, thinks Mr..
Bryan is surely elected and strong
ly suspects fraud.
The following statement Of the
Presidential situation was issued
by Chairman james X. Jones, Of
the Chicago headquarters Demo-
cIatic National Committee, yester-
day morning:
+" / have counted, from the begin
ming, as the States upon which we
relied for Mr. Bryan's election the
sixteen Southern States votes and
the States west Of Missouri River,
with total of 2l7 l have hoped
that we would carry Indiana, Mich
igan and Minnesota. Ibelieve that
we have carried every Southern
State, except Maryland, and that
We have carried all Of the Western
States heretofore counted on, which
leaves US, not counting Delaware,
which / think we have carried, and
which / have not heretofore calcu-
lated on, 209 votes. One vote we
certainly have in Delaware, and
probably three. Butcounting only
one vote, which we have beyond a
doubt, it leaves necessary toachoice
IA votes. Either Michigan or In
diana would give us those IA votes.
The reports received by US from
these States give encouragement,
and leads us to believe that while
both States are close, we have the
better chance to win, and that we
may probably carry both.
"There can be scarcely a doubt
of our getting Indiana. Under
these circumstances, it seems tome
that we are entirely justified in
claiming the election of Mr.. Bryan,
which / do, and l believe that the
temper of the people is such that
they will not allow their choice to
be defeated by tricks and frauds
The statements made in the city
papers to-day that l have given up
the contest and admitted that Mr..
Bryan is defeated, indicate delib-
crate purpose on the part of the
papers, as well as the Republican
managers, to create false impress
sions in the minds of the people,
and to lead them to believe that
Mr.. KcKinley's election is accom-
plished and acquiesced in.
CT have not, for a moment, ac-
quiesced in Mr.. McKinley's cleo
tion, and will not until there is a
material change from existing con-
ditions.
GAS l believe Indiana, and prob
ably Michigan, have voted for Mr..
Bryan, and if either has, he is GER
tainly elected.

OUR DESTINY.


The agony of the campaign is
over, and however the result Of the
long drawn out contest may be, all
conditions of society must expert
ence the enlivening spirit of actiy-
ity that will come with the general
restoration of confidence and GER
tainty.
The natural inclination of the
public mind will now turn toward
the every day channels Of life, and
the same causes will, as heretofore,
produce the same effect Industry
and frugality will be the mark of
reward according to merit.
The success of the Democratic
ticket, with the advantages of a
more equitable system of finance,
as has been promised the people,
will Oring about the loosening of
the binding cords of monopoly that
have circumscribed the prosperity
and well-being of labor, but it will
take from labor few of the caresand
responsibilities.
Man must still have something
to exchange for the wealth that will
come with the new order of things.
Should the die fall in another
way, our conditions will be practi-
cally unchanged for the present.
BY an industrious, honest effort we
may be able to keep the wolf from
the door at least until another effort
can be made to shake off the thrall-
dom of the unequal conditions made
by legislation adverse to the inter-
ests Of the Masses Of the people.
In the meantime the bitterness
engendered by the most remarka-

Government should be buried with
the past, and every citizen should
remember that our interests are one
in common, and the further devel-
opment of this great country is par
