HANNA APPEALS
TO THE VOTERS
They ,\re Asked to Display the Flag on
Election Day.
VOTE WITH CONSCIENTIOUS CARE
Special Reports Received on Esti.
mated MajOrities for Mckinley.
MIR. Hanna is Not Alarmed at the
Noise of the Bryan Campaigners.

Chicago. Oct. 27.--On behalf of the
Republican national committee Chair
man Hanna sent today his appeal, ad-
dressed to voters" After Immediate
ly pressing upon their minds the fact
that the destiny Of the nation is in their
hands he advises them to calmly and
carefully think before they vote in the
seclusion of their booths, with their
conscience as their only guide. He
urges them to look upon the flag as
they go to the polls and reflect on the
cost of it's preservation. They are re-
minded of the call to display the flag
next Saturday and are asked to let
national colors remain until after the
election as an inspiration to voters and
a universal expression of patriotism.
Finally, patriotic voters are asked to
secure for these great principles good
money, good government and protec-
tion to your home and your flag Mt
least one other vote by individual ef-
fort and the women OF the country are
especially appealed to for effective
work in this direction.
Special report was received by Mr.
Hanna from Iowa, giving the expected
majority there for Mckinley at $4,000:
from Minnesota, claiming the state by
10000 to 10000, from Michigan. placing
the majority there at 10000 and from
Kentucky. placing that state in the Nc
Kinley column by $1,000 to $4,000. The
Tennessee state committee also in
formed the national chairman that 1t
would go Republican.
The Bryan demonstration under the
walls of the headquarters building did
not have any perceptible effect on the
spirit of the campaign chief or his su-
bordinates. All We're as confident as
ever and expressed a general express
ion of opinion that Mr.. Bryan had
come to Chicago too late to make any
serious inroads in the Republican
ranks.
Mr. Hanna said: This Bryan noise
does not send any cold shivers chaS>
ing up and down my spinal column.
Nearly all the voters got their minds
made up on the main issue, so that any
changes which Mr.. Bryan may effect
while here will not show materially in
the result"
