BRYAN SURELY ELECTED.
Chairman Jones Says That Advices
From State Committee Ohairmen
Remove All Doubt.

CHICAGO, ILL.,, Nov. Sat midnight
Chairman Jones gave out the follow
ing signed statement:
"There is no foundation for the
claims of the Republicans. There is
at this time, midnight, no reason to
think that any one of the States
claimed by me for Bryan has failed to
vote for him. While misleading re-
ports are being sent out in all direc-
tions, private advices assure me that
each one of these States has gone for
Mr.. Bryan.
"For two hours the most extrava-
CANT claims as to Kentucky and Indi-
ana have been telegraphed all over
the country, while within the last few
minutes our committees assure us that
both are safe for us. Mr.. Bryan lie
elected"

Democratic states which stand by the
party through thick and thin, and the
announcement of large Democratic
m~ajorities was the sign for more
cheers.
Then came news from Illinois, In
diana, Iowa, Michigan, Tennessee,
Kentucky, New York, Massachusetts,,
Delaware, Ohio and the New England
states, and the faces of the Democrats
heightened when they heard Of the
wonderful Republican gains. One by
one they left the audiences and wend-
ed their weary ways homeward, rom
dering what the morning would bring,
until at 2 O'Clock only a handful Of
men was left at the Opera House and
at the Court House. About 4 O'Clock
what was left of the Opera House
crowd dispersed and went to their
homes to dream for an hour or so of
what they had heard. Or course the
bulletins were rather mislea ding, be-
cause only the larger towns and cities
in each state were heard from and
later returns from interior districts
may wake up the dying fires ofIhope
and smooth the creased brows of the
Democrats. Let u hope as much:
VOTE IN AUDRAIN IN 1892 AND 1894.
In 1892 Grover Cleveland received
in Audrain county 3,240 votes, Harri-
son 1,4os, Bidwell 10, Weaver 242;
Cleveland's plurality 1881, Clark's
plurality 1,702, Stones 1850, John B.
O'Meara 1897, Lesueur 1854. The
largest plurality in Audrain county
was that of jackson L. Smith, candi-
date for Judge of the Kansas City
Court of Appeals, who received 2,066
plurality. The county nominees re-
ceived from 1850 to 1900 plurality.
In 1894 Francis M. Black, Democrat,
received 2,737; W. M. Robinson, Re-
publican, 1901; o. D. Jones, Peoples
Party, 231; Reuben B. Robinson, Pro-
hibitionist, IL. Francis M. Blacks
majority 1,194, VIM. T. Carrington's
1,222, Champ Clark's Lie, T. A. Nc
Intyres l,06l. The maJorltles In 1884
for Audrain county nominees a from
1900 to 1900, excepting in the cases
of Gentry for Treasurer and Judge
Edwards for Probate Judge, where
the majority was the same as the
plurality, there being only two NOM
inees. Gentry's majority was 2,512;
Edwards majority 2,538.
MEXICO PRECINCTS In 1892.
In 1892 the vote polied in the two
Mexico precincts a Democratic,
1905; Republican, SCI; Populists, 81;
Prohibitionists, Z. The indications are
that the vote polled will be increased
300 in the two Mexico precincts. This
increase throughout the county and
State will give Bryan 100000 majority
| in Missouri.

HOW TILE NEWS WAS REcE1vpn

HOW THE NEWS WAS RECEIVED.
Two little brass instruments clicking
off dots and dashes at a great rate, one
in the Western Union office and the
other on the stage at the Opera House,
told a tale last night that surprised
and disappointed the crowds gathered
at both the places mentioned and in
the Circuit Court room.
1t was a tale of a great political
landslide seemingly equalling in its
mighty sweep the memorable one of
1894, but differing from that n as
| widely az possible in that the one was
! Democratic; the other ia probably.
Republican. 1t vas a tale which the
great majority of those who composed
the three audiences were totally un-
prepared for and 1t came like an
Arctic wind on q summer day, freez-
ing the hopes of the most confident
and bearing cold cheer to those who
had looked forward to Democratic
victory.
The crowds began to gather about
z O'Clock and by that time the tele-
graphic bulletins were coming In.
Despite the fact that q heavy rain be-
gan falling about that hour the Opera
House and Court House were well
filed, the crowd at the latter being
very large. From the very first the
bulletins had a Mark Hanna air about
lthem that mos r,k rlcnca~& e. thc a.

1t is generally conceded by Repub-
Iicans and confidently claimed by
Democrats that Hon. Champ Clark
has been reelected to Congress by q
greatly increased majority over that
which he received in 1892. In Au-
drain County he received 2,159 plur-
atty, against 1902 in 1892, the increase
in his plurality being 457.

Saturday-Torchight
Procession.

Correspondents of the Ledger.
vANDALIA, No., Oct. s1.-This has
been q red letter Cay for Vandalia.
Nature seemed to have smiled on MS,
as the day was one that looked like it
was made to order. Our people We'd
with each other in their decorations.
Bunting of every description was see
in every direction and national flags,
both large and small, were floating
from every conceivable place that
could bs found, from the finest houses
to the donkey's bride. Early in the
day people came fiocking in and by 10
o'clock the organized clubs, bearing
hundreds Of banners and notices,
representing the peoples cause and
free silver, began to arrive. Without
taking m account of the women and
children who came In wagons there
were over n thousand men on horse
back, and God bless our girls, they
we're here, too. Farber had seven
teen young ladies on horseback, six
teen white and one Hanna gold.
Laddonia and Pleasant Plains had
each a float handsomely decorated and
sixteen girls dressed In white and one
in Hanna gold.
New Harmony had two floats fas-
tened together-the front n with
sixteen girls In pure white and one in
Hanna gold. The other contained
about rs little boys dressed in nation
al colors.
vandalia had two floats, each con-
tanning sixteen girls in white and one
OF Mark Hanna gold.
The parade Of the day was very inn
posing and was enjoyed by thousands
on our streets. The girls were train
ed and sang many amusing campaign
songs and the little boys said that
1--WE can't vote, but our daddies can.
The night parade vas out OF sight.
Those on horseback yer led by the
Curryvilie band, followed by the
floats. On one Of the floats was a
most impressive picture of a young
lady dressed in pure white with sill
yer ornaments, representing the
Goddess of Liberty. This gay pro-
cession, lighted mp by the street lamps
and hundreds OF torches, together
with the band and campaign songs
and the hurrahs for Bryan, made II
look gloomy indeed to our Republi.
can and gold bug friends.
One feature of the day was one hum
bred girls dressed in pure white form
ed in front of the Glascock Hotel and
marched around the Square, led b,
the band, playing the old nationa
air, "The Star Spangled Banner
This vas a very patriotic scene and
was cheered by the thousands ant
should teach the enemies of our Gov
eminent a lesson; that to our womei
we are largely indebted for the patri
otto devotion to our cause. Again
let me say, God bless u girls.
The last act after disbanding waa +
repair to the Opera House and listel
to- the campaign songs by the girls
and Prof. Darnell was SO much en-
Unused over the day, before he bega
his songs he requested the audienc
that all who could call hogs to JON,
the chorus.
After the singing the Hon. Robel
/ Rndcers. candidate for prosacutiu
Attorney Of Audrain County, made
telling speech and was cheered TO Il
echo, after which the crowd adj0url
ed, feeling that it vas good to
there. Yours Respectfully,
8. e. KENDALL.

both of whom are just homo from
campaigning in Illinois. Each OF the
speakers was greeted with applause
and every mention of Bryan's name
brought forth round after round OF
enthusiastic cheers- The meeting
was . fitting close to the earnest work
of the Bryan and sewaIl Club during
the campaign just ended.
