'"The Tornado" Lincoln J i.

the list OF electors they would cast
mistake the democrats lost more than
the republicans. So much so that the
vote for the first elector only being
counted. the first Cleveland elector was
declared chosen. while the rest OF the
Cleveland electors were defeated.
Thus by the real intent OF all the vot-
ers participating, Cleveland. not Har-
rison, should have carried the state.
Now the consensus OF all that I have
heard, Is that there will be In Novem-
Der next a full democratic vote. and
that its loss on the money question
will be little IL any, and more than its
loss by Cleveland's position on the
tariff question: that Bryan win have
the full vote. as he is certainly get
ting everywhere in Ohio. the enthusi-
astic work OF the populists: that he
will get at least two thirds OF the pro-
hibitionists, though they may vote for
local candidates of their own; that
there is stronger determination
among workingmen to vote for Bryan
than there ever yet has been TO vote
for any candidate; and that In the
strongest republican counties through
out the state there Is a very large body
OF former republicans who will this year
vote for the democratic presidential
candidate The specific statement as
to counties and townships that I have
had as TO this from men on whom
can rely would Indicate that Bryan
will carry this state In November by
q perfect landslide. And now when
only four weeks OF the campaign re-
main. there can be no question as TO
which side Is gaining. Free silver Is
everywhere making its way and every
where the ~ publican candidates are
losing ground. I find this In Cleveland
as return to II after something after
a weeks absence, and It Is the thing
upon which all Of those I have talked
with elsewhere are agreed and to these
elements OF success Is being added that
most potent element, which Bryan's
personal touch with the people is pro-
ducing and intensifylng-a belief In the
honesty OF the man. From my view
OF the situation cannot think that
Bryan will fail to carry Ohio by a
large majority and the same Influences
that give him Ohio should give him all
the central western states that have
been considered doubtful.
