Looks bright in IOyya.

Carl Jacobson, who has been stumping
the western portion of the state of Iowa
in the interests of sound money returned
home last night. Mr.. Jacobson has been
addressing the Swedish farmers. Large audi
ences packed the halls at every meeting,
and although on two occasions there were
rival meetings of the free silvertes the
attendance upon the republican meeting was
undminished in numbers. Speeches were
delivered at Essex. Red Oak, Silver Creek
Center, Ida Grove and three other points
At Ida Grove a prominent sllverite ad-
mitted the defeat of his party in the state
and conceded Mckinley 10000 majority. Ex-
Governor Carpenter of Iowa spoke at Ida
Grove and stated to Mr.. Jacobson that from
personal observation he figured the state
would go republican on national issues by
60 900 majority.

Candidates Not Allowed on New
YOrIS,s Off cinl BnIIOt

NEW YORK, Oct. 9.-The Board of Elec-
tions at a meeting held in Brooklyn late
last night rendered a decision that the
party name of the national democratic
party" was substantially the same as that
of the regular democratic organization, and
that as such it was an infringement upon
the rights of the use thereof by the regular
party. 1t was decided further that the GER
tifcates OF nomination of the national
party" were not party certificates within
the intent and provisions of the law.
The board also endorsed the opinion of
Corporation Counsel Burr that there was
sufficient doubt in regard to the questions
at issue to make it desirable that the mat
ter should be determined as soon as possi-
BILE by the courts.

roruLrsr VOTE mas FALLEN OFF.
GcorRIn Democrats Capture the Me-
Ernes md Win Mnnhs nmcly.


ATLANTA, Ga. Oct 9.-Returns so far
from Wednesdays election show that the
total populist vote win not exceed IS 900. 1t
was 95.sSs in 1894, showing a decrease Of
about II 900. This falling off is largely at
tributed to the capture Of the negro vote
by Governor Atkinson. The official figures
coming in today do not materially change
the estimate OF the result as made In these
dispatches yesterday.
In a few sections of the state the populist
vote was increased In nearly every case
IL was due to the personal popularity OF
some populist nominee. In Florida, Wrights
home county. the populist candidate for gov
eTnoT received a majority OF 26S votes. But
this was not, in a party sense, majority
for populsm. since Gambler, democratic nom
inee for secretary Of state, defeated Parsons,
the populist nominee, by over 500 votes. In
Coffee county for the first time the populist
state ticket was given a majority and the
entire county nominees elected. To OFFSET
this however, twenty counties that went
populist in 1894 rolled up on Wednesdays
democratic majorities This is true of Camp
bell. Carroll, Chattahoochie, Clayton Daw-
SON Douglas Emanuel Fayette. Guiuette,

declaring the result Some claim there will

excitement prevails and mischief is to pay

One of the features of the election Is that
every congressional district in Georgia Is
democratic and will send democratic repre-
sentatives to the next congress, The only
district held in doubt was the Tenth. Two
years ago in the state election this district
gave small popullst majority. Wednesday
Richmond, Hancock and Washington gave
democratic majorlties sufficient to offset the
populist majorities in the eight other coun-
ties and show besides a clean democratic
majority Of 2,125.

In reply to such letters Secretary of State
Piper informs new officials that 1t is the
duty of the secretary of stale, III compli-
ance with section l. chapter V, of the Gen
eral Laws to provide the ballots containing
proposed amendments in the form in which
they are to submitted to vote Of the peo-
pie. Section 2 provides that said ballots
shall be printed, both Official and sample
ballots, in conformity with section SO, chap
ter XVI, Compiled Statutes. In accordance
with this law, therefore, the secretary of
state provides himself with some 100000
ballots, made from carload of paper, and
twenty days prior to election, OF more as
the case may be, sends written communi-
cation to each county clerk in the state,

Bryan's Letter of Acceptance.
NORTH PENoBsCoT, Sept. Is, 1895.
To the Editor Of the american:
Mr.. Bryan's letter Of acceptance is more
remarka BILE for what it does not say than
for what it says. 1t contains less often
sive matter, and more sound theory than
his New York speech. Il is more demo-
cratic and repu bIicanistic, and less popu-
listic. 1t shows the volatile character of
the man, but lacks the sturdy ring OF a
giant reformer.
Having aroused the laboring classes
again by his rsving onslsughts against
capital, he now seeks to sliay the fears of
the patriotic, who love strong and stable
government The letter lacks the stiff
ness and independence of Cleveland's
state papers, and construed in connection
with his recent speeches evinces a slsvish
fear Of the polite elements at work.
1t must be like the speech he once de-
livered in Congress and which his ssso-
ciate, Watson, likened to an old fish trap

Editor Bateman, of the Maine Popu-

about time he "killed" the State
ticket at the head of his editorial col
umn. If the professor would but give
a little less time to Candidate Sewall

changes he would have learned ere
this that there was an election in
Maine last week.

tion-and there are those who believe
even Mr.. Bryan favors the withdrawal
of the Maine candidate, and look upon
his silence at this time as significant.
Mr.. Bryan will visit Mr.. Sewall at his
Bath home this week. Within very
short time after that visit the clamor-
ing popuhsts may expect a final ans
wer to their question.

about it. Mr.. Bryan is due in Port

liver one of his railroad speeches be-
fore proceeding to Bath, where he
will visit Mr.. Sewall. He will speak
in Bath Saturday night. Mr.. Bryan

1t is an open secret that Mr.. Sewall
was made the tail of the free silver
kite because of the size of his barrel,
and because that barrel remains in
tact the chagrined popocratic leaders
talk of withdrawing him from the

must pull down the kite, and it would
be hard work raising free silver kite
again in such a cyclone as that which
has set in from Vermont and Maine.

The most notable thing connected
with Mr.. Bryan's speech in Washing
ton Saturday night was his sublime
audacity in making the farewell adj
dress OF George Washington the basis
of his speech. Even the heavens
weep said gentleman present,
when the rain storm put sudden
stop to Bryan's speech. Washington
said: I'm contemplating the causes
which may disturb our union, it occurs
as a matter of serious concern that
any ground should have been fur
nished for characterizing parties by
geographical determinations, North
ern and Southern, Atlantic and West
ern; whence designing men may en-
deavor to excite belief that there is
a real difference of local interests and
views" Designing Mr.. Bryan is
seeking the presidency through ar
raigning class against class and sec
ton against section. Again, Wash
