that 81 out of every 100 who voted for
BRYAN voted for Harrison in 1892, while
10 out of every 100 who voted for Nc
Kinley voted for Cleveland in 1892.
Here is a net gain of eight per cent. for
Mr.. Bryan.
1t will also be seen that ten votes are
cast for Palmer to every 100 cast for
Rrvan. This table also shows that
these changes from Harrison to Bryan
and Cleveland to Mckinley are in
favor of Mr.. Bryan in Cicero and 25 of
the "a wards of the city. Ii the percent
age of changes as shown herein
are correct index of what may
be expected of the voters of Chi
cago and Cook county Mr. Bryan
will sweep Chicago by splendid vote.
On a basis of the 1892 vote, giving him
so per cent. of the prohibitionists, and
ill the populists. and taking from him
ten per cent. of his vote which will go
to Palmer, as shown by this table, he
will have plurality over Mckinley of
3O.554 votes in Cook county.
In the Record of Wednesday, October
IA, the vote of Illinois, outside of Cook
county, and the changes from Har-
rison to Bryan and Cleveland to Me
Knley are given, showing net gain of
little less than II per cent. for Bryan.
In this report Mr.. Palmer's vote is five
per cent. of the vote cast for Mr.. Bryan.
Taking the vote of 1892 as basis, Civ
ing one-half of the prohibitionists and
all the populists to Bryan, and taking
away from him five per cent. for the
Palmer vote, and it gives Mr.. Bryan out
side of Cook county a plurality of
4o,643 Combining this plurality with
that of Cook county, viz: 1854, and
we have the magnificent total of 8O,177
plurality for Mr.. Bryan in the entire
state.

A CORRECT SHOWING.
Larger Per Cent. of Republican Votes
for Bryan Than of Democratic
Votes for Mckinley.
At This Rate of Gain Bryan Will Carry the
State of Illinois by 10000 Majority
This Is What the Records Ballot
Really Shows on Correct
Analysis = Palmer Is
Not in 1t.

Chicago, Oct. 10, 1s06.-(Special J.
Notwithstanding the fact that the bal
lot being taken by the Chicago Record
has been boycotted by the silver men
throughout Chicago and the west, and
that the returns received indicate that
it has been boycotted and ignored, it
shows conclusively when analysed that
Mr.. Bryan will sweep Illinois and the
central western states. The returns
from Cook county, when Analysed. as
they have been below, show that he
will carry Cook county by 10000 ma
jority; that he will carry the state out
side of Cook county by $4,000 majority,
and that he will have total majority
in the entire state of more than $4,000.
While the Records ballot is not a fair
test, and cannot be a fair test of the
strength of the silver sentiment in Chi
cago and the country, it shows indls-
putably that wherever a democrat is
voting for Mckinley more than twice
that number of republicans are voting
for Bryan.
The following table, taken from the
Record, and Endorsed by the gentle
men in charge of the ballot, proves this
to be true:

ADVICE TO FARMERS.

mission House.

mission House,
We are in the midst of an exciting
political campaign; the great cities
are stirred by monster demonstrations
The great orators hold forth every
night in halls, WigWams, and tents. Po.
litical leaders are busy figuring out the
result in advance of the election. Thou
sands of men in the employ Of the ma
tional committees are ascertaining as
near as possible how each city ward
how each branch of organized labor
how each city will vote. One thing nc
man, no set of men, no campaign com.
mittee, no political party can tell ir
advance, that is, how the farmers OF
the country will vote. The one great
question to-day is: How do the farm.
ers feel about it? We mention this
only to illustrate a point in practical
business matters.
Agricultural workers are learning
their power in politics. They can make
or unmake state legislatures. They dc
1T by initiating the methods of labor
in cities, by working together. They
do not need local unions. They can
work in our grand intellectual union
for their common good. They have
done it in demanding legislation. They
are doing it now in a way that makes
leaders tremble. They will act more
intelligently and united in the future.
They find other things than politics TIC
call for their decision. They produce
what the world needs. They are study
ing new methods of giving the fruit Of
their labors to the world. Recently an
army of 100, 900 men marched through
Chicago's streets celebrating the TWEEN
ty-ffth anniversary of the great fire.
The farmers have for years fed much
greater army; not only fed, but made
rich, presented with grain elevators,
private banks, fine houses, costly lux
uries. the old-time, ever-present army

between the farm and the worlds big
markets.
This independent action began with
this pioneer farmers commission house.
1t is assuming proportions which make

shipperS) at the stations over a dozen
states tributary to Chicago tremble.
The question: what are the farmers
going to do?" botherS not politicians
alone, but all those who have been
getting something for nothing. Farm
ers are going to ship their own grain
not a few or hundred, but an army
of thousands. They know how, they
have tried it, it pays. That is one
question answered by farmers.
See what few farmers say who
have tried shipping:

OVER FIFTY
Business Men for Bryan to One for Mo
Kinley.

Toledo, o., Oct. 5.--An eloquent reply
to the statement that business men
generally are for Mckinley has been
made by means of a recent mail ballot.
j. w. Gunnells, of this city, publisher
of Gunnells' Monthly, recently sent out
10000 return postal cards. On them
was the request that the recipients
would simply give their preferences for
president, without going into the issues
involved.
These cards were sent to business
houses with which Mr.. Gunnells had
dealings, advertising agencies and to
many subscribers for the monthly. Mr..
Gunnells has received 1896 replies to
date. Eight thousand three hundred
and thirty-four are for Bryan and only
161 for Mckinley.

A CLEAN SWEEP.

Gov. AItgeId Confident the Democrats
VIII Garry Ininois-Outlook Better Than
in 1892.
Gov. Altgeld has written the follow
ing letter TO the New York Journal:
Springfield, Ill, Oct. 4, 1861 have
been in all sections of the state, and J.
find the outlook very much more favora-
bic than it was in 1892. We carried the
state then by upward of $4,000 ma
jority.
From present indications will say
that Bryan will sweep this state by a
tremendous majority. Hanna's hire
lings are making much noise, but the
people are with us.
