National Legislature.

Canton, Nov. 4.-Joseph p. Smith, who
is one of Major Mckinley's closest
political friends and who has been a
member of the Mckinley household dur
ing the campaign. has been doing some
figuring on the senate. He says that
from the best information at hand. it
appears that the senate of the United
States after March 4th next Will consist
of 40 sound money Republicans and
Democrats and Al silver Democrats and
Republicans.
This grouping will not apply to the
tariff and some other questions which
does not indicate the number of sup
porters that Major McKinley's admin
istration will have on these issues. a
number of sound money Democrats will
oppose the Republican tariff policy and
probably three of the silver Republi-
cans will be in harmony with it.

Lincoln. Neb., Nov. 4-Mr. Bryan has
received a number of kilograms asking

claims enough states to give a majority
in therelectoral college, but the vote is
very close in several of the states and
the result cannot be known positively
until the entire vote Is counted. In all
close contests it is wise for both sides
to watch the returns to guard against
