| Chairman OF the State Committee
We entered upon the campaign In this state
under very discouraging circumstances and
with but slight prospects of saving the state for
| Bryan and Sewnll. The sentiment in favor
| of national ticket has grown in
| strpnuth daily and DpmDcrntS have gradually
gained confidence in Democratic success.
| A majority of the voters OF this
| state are In favor OF Bryan and Sewall. do
not believe that tho vast corruption fund raised
| by the Republican campaign managers can
check the current of opinion which Is running
| In favor of our national candidate. believe
| that New York city will give at least 900
majority for Bryan and Scwali, and that we
shall carry the State by 10000"
