CLAIM EVERYTHING IN NEW JERSEY
Fifty Thousand Plurality in Sight for
Mckinley.

TRENTON, " j.. Nov. 1.-The cam
paign in New Jersey has practically closed.
and the leaders Of both the republican and
democratic parties are claiming the state
Chairman Franklin Murphy OF the repub-
lican state committee declares that Nc
Kinley will carry the state by between 49,
600 and so, 900. and that they will secure
the entire eight congressman, seven OF the
eight state senators and nearly all OF the
lower house. Colonel l.. Price, chairman
OF the democratic state committee, claims
the state for Bryan by from 10000 to T.
600 and saws the democrats will get three
or four congressman. five state senators
and a majority of the lower house. Ex-
Senator Winton, chairman of the national
democratic state committee. comedies the
state to Mckinley and asks all gold DEM
ocrats to vote for Palmer, as TO give
total vote sufficient in size to permit
the ticket to be certified here after the
nomination of candidates by the conven-
tion instead of by petition. The republicans
have been aggressive throughout the cam
pagn and prominent speakers have advo-
Gated their cause in every locality. On
the ether hand the Fourth congressional
district has been the only section OF the
state where the democrats have been ac-
tive. This includes Newark, Jersey CITY
and Paterson, and 1t was through this dis
trict that Bryan spoke. Augustus w. Cut
reelection in the Fourth.
Democratic Committeeman Coleman says
Bryan will carry the state by 25,00O to 30
900; Taylor, for governor, by 1900 TO 10000;
with democratic congressman in the Third.
Fourth, Fifth. Sixth Seventh, Eighth.
Ninth and Tenth districts, and the legisla-
ture. The republican committee claims Nc
Kinley will carry the state by 10000; Till
man, for governor by 10000; four congress-
men certain to-wit First, Second Third
and Eighth and two doubtful-Seventh and
Fourth. The committee also claims the ma
tonal democTatic-republCa fusion candi-
date for cor gress in this, the Sixth district,
will be elected, and ii is claimed the legs-
lature will be republican. The national
democratic committee claims that from TO-
900 TO 900 democrats will not vote for
Bryan, but will not give an estimate OF
how many of them will vote for Mckinley.
The DOpulist committee refuses to give an
estimate.
The national democrats claim a congress-
man in the Sixth and Tenth districts. Con-
seryative men think the committees claims
are somewhat eXtravagant. especially the re-
publican committees claims. Bryan they
estimate, win carry the state by 10000,
Taylor by $1,000; seven democratic con-
gressmen certain, with the democrats having
the best show in the Third district, and that
republicans can only count on congressman
from the First and Second districts. In the
Tenth district. Paterson, national democrat,
may defeat Carmack. free silver democrat,
but this is not a certainty. a large vote
will be polled, larger than for years, and
this compllcates the estimates somewhat.
