Some Encouraging Words

WHAT Mr., BRYAN SAYS
Result Uncertain Until the Vote Is
Counted.
last N1GHr's DISPATCHES ]

LAST NIGHTS DISPATCHES.
CHICAGO, Nov. 5.-SenatOr Jones is
sued the following statement late last
night:
l have counted from the beginning,
as the states upon which we relied
upon for Mr.. Bryan's election, the
Southern states at 156 votes, and the
states west of the Missouri So, making
total of PSI. / had hoped that we
would carry Indiana, Michigan and
Minnesota. | believe 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 Della
ware, which / have heretofore not cal
culated on, ,209 votes. One vote we cer-
tainly have in Delaware and probably
three. But counting only one vote,
which We have beyond dOubt,it leaves
necessary TO choice fourteen votes;
either Michigan or Indiana would
give us these fourteen votes. Reports
received by us from both these states
are encouraging and lead us to believe
that both states are close: we have a
better chance to win each and may
carry both.
There can scarcely be any doubt
of getting Indiana. Under these cir
cumstances it seems to me that we
are entirely justified in claiming the
election of Mr.. Bryan, which l do,
and believe the temper of the pe0-
pie is such that they will not allow
their choice to be defeated by tricks
and frauds.
Statements made again and again
in the city papers today that l have
given up the contest and admitted
that Mr.. Bryan is defeated, indicate
deliberate purpose on the part of
the papers, as well as the Republican
managers, to create false impressions
in the minds Of the people and to lead
them to believe that McKinley's cleo
tion is accomplished and acquiesced
in. / have not for moment acquIes-
ced in Mr. McKinley's election and
will not until there is a meterial
change from the existing conditions,
as 1 believe Indiana and probably
Michigan have gone for Bryan and, if
either has, he is elected"
WHAT BRYAN SAYS.
OMAHA, Neb., Nov. 4.-Mr. Bryan
gives out the following: "The ma
tional Democratic committee claims
enough votes to give majority in
the electoral college, but the vote is
very close in several of the states and
the result cannot be known positively
until the entire vote is counted, In
close contests, it is wise for both sides
to watch the returns to guard against
the possibility of mistake, inten-
tional or unintentional."

bicycles aud Iinggaccmen.

Bicycles are worrying the life out OF
baggagemen nowadays" said Alfred
Hasmcr of Denver at the Centropolis,
especially when the owners neglect to
hand up n tip. On the Denver and Rio
Grandc, for instance, there were
checked during July 1,GG4 wheels, or
an average of Over fi~fty-three daily.
II they had brought a quarter each
into the pockets Of the baggagcmen
who handled and watched them, or
even II the company had collected a
Zee FOR the transportation service, there
would have been some satisfaction, but
for the road to carry its little wind-in-
iated competitor for nothing hurts the
trainmen like fury, AS a wheel might
say. This makes baggagemen pneu-
matically tired. '"--Kansas City Times
