SANGUINE MIR. BUTLER.
He Says Bryan's Election is an Absolute
Certainty

Certainty.
Washington, Oct3l. -''The election of
Bryan is an absolute certainty,'' said
Chairman Butler, of the national Populist
committee, in reviewing the campaign
tonight. Bryan has now absolutely
2jS electoral votes, and his popular ma.
jority will be larger than his electoral
majority. 1t will be at least two mil
lions, which is,about the size of the Popu-
list vote. The arrangements perfected
for the lining up of voters, both Pop
ulists and Democrats, are far beyond our
cXpcctaG;0as, due more, to the intense in.
terest of hc'pSoplc in the fight than to
the diplomacy of committees, who, how
ever, did all they could. The result
now achieved i wonderful in view of the
difficulties confronting us. Our party
came III the West from the Republican
party, IN the South from the preiudices
which still exist. To line up this vote
solidlv for Il Candidate was extremely
difficult. Though the Democratic com
mittee met us half way, yet in many
States local managers, unappreciative OF
conditions, added TO the difficulty Two
\lce-Prcsldentlal candidates caused this
embarrassment, The campaign would
have been simplified fSewall had seen his
way clear to withdraw; but, failing this.
we had to organize joint electoral tickets
all around The party, rs we'll ms Wat
son, were disappointed in not having one
ticket, but il would he II SANDER on him
To say he would consequently keep Bryan
from getting voters. He will make no
further fight.
"Thc free silver Republican vote that
will 90 to Bryan will be much larger
than Mckinlcy's gold standard vote. The
two millions of Populist votes will he
practically solid for Bryan. There is Il
much larger percentage of the labor vote,
both organized and unorganizcd. for
Bryan than has ever been cast for II Dem
ocratic candidate The Peoples party
strength, even Were the free silver Re
publican and labor votes absent, could
elect Bryan. Chicago is doubtful, but
we will get 10, 600 majority in the coun,.
try districts to overcome that. Bryan
doesn't have to get Illinois. He could
lose all the Middle Western States cx-
cept Indiana or Michigan or Minnesota

Two Recommendations were made
by Republicans and Democrats in this
city, both having parades miles long.

Doubtful Column.

Doubtful Column
Chicago, oct 3i.-The fight for Illinois
that has been waged by both the Leading
political parties in the campaign that is
just closing has been one OF the hottest
struggles ever known in American poll
ties. Both parties have all along made
sweeping claims of their ability to carry
the state, but at the end the Republicans
seem 10 be the more Sanguine of success
Chairman Hanna said to-day that he was
sure of the State for Mckinley by n ma
iority rather much over 100, 900, while
Chairman Jones, il, his statement of the
result, which he sent to the press this
evening, puts the State in the doubtful
column. The Democratic leaders have
always insisted that they would carry the
State by large majority, and after the
speeches OF Mr.. Bryan in this city dur
ing the last few days they.have expressed
themselves as being very iublant In
the State ut large the Republicans claim
nearly everything, and the Democratic
assertions are no less sweeping.

ROW AMONG REFORMERS.
Richmond Pearson Asks Butler if He
Thinks the Republicans Are a Set of
Internal Asses.

''Wanderer." writing 10 the Char
lotte Observer, says: Washington,
Feb. murder will out. sooner or
later, and now the truth Of the fusion
pow-woW In one of the committee
rooms of the Capitol has percolated out
TO public gaze, and it is about this:
After DR.. Mott finally cut loose from
the Republican party by accepting the
craftsmanship of the silver committee,
Senator Pritchard requested a confer
ence of the North Carolina delegation,
which, after some hesitation on the
part Of the House. was agreed to. T.
was held on Monday last. and a little
bird perched on one of the trees near
by in the Capitol grounds, heard and
saw enough to be able to state that the
element of fraternal harmony was con
spicuous by it's absence. Senator But
Ter. secretiye as usual, for long time
used language 20 conceal his thoughts,
but after a while was forced to
show his hand when the di-
rect question was put him by
Duke" Pearson as to whether
he would agree to fusion on State
matters alone, leaving the electoral
question to be settled by each party for
itself. Whereupon the willy Senator
was forced to admit that the silver men
looked upon North Carolina as q safe
silver State and would demand that no
candidate be nominated, either State or
Federal, who would not pledge himself
to the free and unlimited coinage Of
the white metal. This excited the hot
indignation of the 1ordly dweller upon
Richmond Hill, and he blazed out:
''Mr. Butler, do you think we are set
of Internal asses not to see that you
and DIR. Mott are scheming TO disrupt
the Republican party?" Then for half
an hour cuss words fairly darkened the
air of that committee room, and the
meeting broke up, each man putting at
his cigar and jerking his head in that
indescribIe way peculiar to q mad
man and game cock.
After this Senator Pritchard and
Representative Settle locked arms in
most friendly way, went to the avenue
and took a car. Later Mr.. Settle took
the train for North Carolina, and the
successor to Governor Vance has been
looking ever since like a man who has
lost some thing.

POLITICAL GOSSIP.

As we intimated a few months. ago,
it may not be amiss for gubernatorial
candidates of whatever name TO keep
an eye single on Justice Walter Clark
For q Democrat in good and regular
standing he has, for several years, been
writing articles that have been highly
pleasing TO the Populists. and among
them a recent article to the News and
Observer, written from Mexico and
being his convictions after travelling
through that country for the purpose
of informing himself as to the condi-
ton of the people of that silver
cursed (?) country. Since Col. julie
Carr has declined TO be a candidate,
we are of the opinion that no other
man could poll SO heavy vote as
Walter Clark lie has always been
one of those fortunate individuals who
was never held TO strict account for
the political views which he held and
promulgated and upon whose should
ers the party lash has had but precious
little effect; many of those who dis
agree in toto with him in his finan-
cial and economic views will do him
the justice to say that in their opinion
he would make the best Governor the
State has ever had, and if the contest
were between him and any Republican
in the State upon the merits Of the
men, Clark would most assuredly be
elected. -Lumberton Robesonian.

FILTERS.

The report of the execu-

Health relative to the
condition of the Nuuanu
reservoirs is suggestive OF
something dangerous to

that will effectually separate
the water from mud and filth.
Nature has done much
toward providing the people
with necessarieS; it has also
done a little toward securing
for the people, luxuries. In
some localities a filter is a
luxury, in others, Honolulu
for instance, it is a necessity,
but the natural filters that are
sold have been much I'M
proved by the ingenuity OF
